Coloring Your Hair and “The Wait”

Arianne Suggs April 1, 2015April 1, 2015Leave a Comment

Hair Quickie: If you have just colored or dyed your hair try to wait at least 48 hours or more before washing your strands. This is because every time you wet the hair the cuticle opens and you want to give your hair time to seal in the color. Therefore, if you are planning activities where you know you will need to shampoo your hair it is best not to color your hair right before that time.

How to Fix Hair Product Build-Up

Arianne Suggs March 31, 2015March 31, 2015Leave a Comment

Hair Quickie: Remember, not all hair is created equally, so what works for one person may not work for someone else. There are some that can pile on product after product and they will not experience any real build-up or backlash. Build-up can occur from the use of gels, hairspray, pomades and even conditioners. Nevertheless, if you notice that products seem to build up on top of the hair there is a easy solution. Try mixing 1 tablespoon baking soda with your regular shampoo once a week. Wash hair like normal then rinse out the concoction and dry strands as usual.

Nightly Routine

Hair Quickie: It is a good habit to brush hair every night from root to ends in order to promote growth by stimulating the scalp as well as give tresses a healthy sheen. Locks will look more luminous due to the distribution of natural oils throughout the shaft caused by the brushing action.

What to Look For in a Dandruff Shampoo

Arianne Suggs October 13, 2014October 13, 2014Leave a Comment

Did you know that your skin renews itself about every 28 days? That’s a lot of skin shedding going on that you probably do not notice very often. Nonetheless, flakes on the scalp can be caused for a number of reasons besides this natural occurrence. Therefore, what can be done to eliminate dandruff?

For one, you will need a shampoo that is well equipped as well as formulated to handle the job. When doing your haircare shopping be sure to include an anti-dandruff shampoo. Before buying flip the bottle over and look for these ingredients:

Salicylic Acid
Zinc Pyrithione
Ketoconazole
Selenium Sulfide

Hair Tip Bonus: If you continue to use the same hair products over and over again your hair can develop an immunity to the product’s ingredients and the product will lose it’s effectiveness. To prevent this from happening rotate the brands you use at least once a month.

To Brush or Not to Brush

Arianne SuggsUpdated on June 19, 2014June 19, 2014Leave a Comment

Hair Quickie: Is it okay to brush your hair while its wet? Doing so is not highly recommended because of the stress it can do to tresses. Hair is in a very vulnerable state when it is wet. Brushing your hair when it is not at its strongest can result in damage and even hair loss. Be wise with your hair and always treat it with care.
