Short hair needs to be cut every 4-6 weeks. A good
short haircut will start loosing its shape after 4
weeks.
Long hair is more sensitive to the sun and other
outside elements. A haircut every 4-6 weeks will help
to minimize split ends.
Try to wear a hat to protect hair from intense
sun and use products that contain UV protection.
In salon treatments and the right shampoo and conditioner
at home are also very important.
To maintain long hair at night pull it back in
a soft pony tail and let loose in the morning for
nice wave.
Once a month it is good to use conditioner at home
to rid your hair of excess build-up.
It is highly recommended to have an in-salon conditioning
treatment once a month to restore any broken ends
or damaged hair.
Use high quality shampoos and conditioners at home,
specifically formulated for your hairtype.
Use the right professional tools when styling your hair
at home. Get tips from your stylist on how to get the
most out of your hairstyle, For example: When blowdrying
- blowdry on damp hair, not soaking wet. Divide the
hair into 4 sections. Start with one section at a time
and keep the same routine in order to minimize stress
on your hair. The right brush, blowdryer and nozzle
will make all the difference. The size of brush should
be proportionate to the length of hair. With a great
brush you should always see its bristles when blowdrying.
If you have a steamer, it is a good idea to sit under
it with your favoritem conditioner for 5-10min. When
traveling or moving to a new city with different conditions,
ask your stylist what your color formula is.
Trust your instincts. If you see someone with a
great haircut, approach her and ask her where she
had it done, it will save you disappointment from
taking a chance at a no-name salon.
Remember it's all about quality not quantity. Just
like buying a good pair of shoes that will last forver
and be comfortable, you shouldn't compromise on a
good haircut!
