Do You Have Brittle Hair From Overusing Heat Tools?
When you do not use heat protection while blow-drying your hair or using other heat tools, you can cause dryness and brittle hair that becomes prone to breakage. You want to have great-looking hair without causing further damage. You also want to maintain healthy hair and prevent split ends. However, you might be skipping a crucial step in your styling routine.
Let’s talk about a game changer: heat protectant. Not using a heat protectant is a real concern. Possible consequences include damaged and brittle hair, split ends, a lack of shine and unhealthy-looking hair. Using a heat protectant helps safeguard the health of your hair. It helps preserve the hair’s natural moisture, prevent further damage and allow for more versatile styling.
Here at FORD Salon, we have numerous options for all hair types. Come in for a complimentary consultation to find the heat protectant best suited to your hair.
Confused Between a Conditioner and a Hair Mask?
A conditioner gives your hair light nourishment and is washed out each time you shampoo. A mask penetrates deeper into the hair, and its benefits can last for three to four washes. However, you still need to use a conditioner each time you wash your hair. Use a conditioner every time you shampoo your hair and leave it on for one to two minutes. A mask can be used once every two weeks as a deep treatment and left on for 10 to 20 minutes.
Our hair is like our skin. It needs extra attention regularly to stay looking and feeling healthy and shiny. Not treating your hair with a mask can deprive it of the extra care it needs. Using only a conditioner helps maintain the current health of your hair, whereas including a mask in your routine can help keep your hair stronger, healthier, nourished and shiny.
