When Should I Go To A Professional Hair Dresser?

Jul13

There are a lot of things we can do to our hair that can easily be done at home. From cutting and styling to dying. It is easier to buy home kits that allow us to do these for a fraction of the cost of going to a salon. But, when should we go to a professional hairdresser?

We will always recommend you going to a professional hairdresser if you are trying to dye your hair. Home dying kits that you can purchase from the supermarket can cause major damage to your hair. It is best to let a professional do it. They will help you to get the best result possible for your hair, keeping it as healthy as possible.

You should go to a professional hairdresser if you are looking for a drastic change. They will be able to do these changes better than anyone can themselves at home. Do not risk the health of your hair and visit your local salon.

How to manage thick hair

Aug30

Whichever hair type we are born with, we always want the opposite, from straight to curly, and thick to thin. If you have thick hair and are finding it difficult to style, you may want to ask your barber to thin it out. Thinning out hair is a great option as it doesn’t affect the length of your hair it just reduces the thickness, making it look less clumpy.

The most important thing to remember when getting your hair thinned out by a barber is their experience in this technique. Some inexperienced barbers may struggle with this technique and take large sections from your hair, not what anyone wants.

Styling thick hair may need products such as wax to help mould the strands into position, avoiding them sticking up and out of place. If you are finding styling a challenge, then you should also ask your barber for tips on the best way to achieve the look you want at home.

How often should I get my hair cut?

May11

Your hair is a part of your body that requires TLC but is sometimes neglected or forgotten. Your hair like your skin requires help to keep it looking fresh, young and healthy. With so many different hair types, no one treatment is best for all, however, a once a month conditioning treatment will certainly help keep those locks looking full of life. If you have oily hair this frequency can be reduced, and for dryer hair, this can be increased. Keeping your hair growing well isn’t always an easy task, but keeping your hair ends split free is a good starting point. Seeing your hairdresser for a trim is vital to keeping your hair healthy and avoid unnecessary damage going up each strand. It is recommended to see your hairdresser every 6 weeks for simple hair maintenance, including a trim and a conditioning treatment. Don’t leave it too late, book in with your hairdresser and start improving your hairs health and appearance straight away.

Looking after your luscious locks: How to prevent damage

Mar25

We always want to make ourselves look and feel good. So, for us to achieve such a look, we tend to search for different hairstyles that will fit our style. As a general rule of thumb, we’d say that you should have your hair cut or styled every two months or so. But, we should also remember that going to the salon can be very expensive. We understand! So, why not try to keep your hair looking and feeling good without professional help?

Well, you can do that too, and here’s how:

Regular shampoo and conditioner can do wonders for your hair. They make it look shinier and healthier but, for it to look a lot silkier, constant trimming should be done because dead-ends are a nightmare. There are a lot of factors as to why your hair gets damaged every day. When you go out during summertime – yes even here in Britain – UV rays slowly destroy your hair. Excessive styling and the use of hair products can also destroy your hair. The bad news is this problem can only be solved by cutting your hair right down to the follicles.

You should know that there are different kinds of scissors used for different purposes. If you are using dull scissors to cut your hair, you risk damaging your hair and you may even end up without a bit of practice you may give yourself a ‘hack job’ whereby you end up having uneven hair with lots of sprouts in different places. Nobody wants that! Look for a finer scissor that allows you to cut through hair with ease. These are specialised blades that enable you to trim your hair without any damages but you do still need to practice and start slowly with a friend watching you.
