Having been a hair designer for…yes many years, I want to give you a few of my thoughts on healthy hair.
Let’s start in the right direction from the beginning. Ok, so to trim or not to trim…that is always the question.
Yes, TRIM, TRIM, TRIM! Even if you are growing your hair long, you should still always maintain healthy ends. Let me tell you why. Everything we do to our hair, combing, brushing, styling, and even the environment, all have an effect on our hair. If we do not trim the ends and they become broken or damaged they can split and travel back up each strand. This leads to even more damage and tangles. Then, at this point your hair will continue to split and not get any longer. In fact, over time your hair will actually become shorter as it breaks. If you are afraid of losing length, here is my tip: ask your hair designer to just “dust your ends.” This is what I do for my guests, and then we are both happy. I know because of my maintenance, your hair is healthy and growing and in return you can make your way to long beautiful healthy hair.  read more…

How do they work?

Dry shampoos work by absorbing the excess dirt and oil that can leave hair looking Greasy and limp. While you would not want to replace liquid shampoo with the dry version altogether, it is a great alternative in emergency beauty. They are must-have items for the girl on the go!

How to use it.

Follow the manufacture’s instructions of course but in general you lightly spray the roots allowing some overspray to hit the remaining hair. Leave in hair for two minutes, then brush out excess product. Provides a matte finish – if a shinier texture is desired, follow up with your favorite shine spray. read more…
