Growing your hair better - naturally

There are a lot of products that are focused on growing strong, healthy and shiny hair. While picking the right products is certainly important, it is also important to keep some more fundamental and natural methods in mind. Your hair is always a reflection of your overall condition, health and vitality. Please ask one of our stylists for an individual and complimentary consultation, as well as service and product recommendations.

  • Stress is a killer. Just like you need those relaxing moments, try giving your hair a break as well: Skip the blow-dry, the straightening or curling once in a while.
  • Indulge in a scalp massage every so often. A massage will increase blood circulation in the scalp. It will stimulate growth, and strengthens the hair's roots.
  • Avoid hair products that contain petroleum-derived silicone. Although silicone will give the sense of a smooth and healthy hair, it seals the hair shaft, dries out the hair and will clogs follicles. You will never find any silicone-based products at our salon.
  • Don’t wash your hair too often. We already talked about how to wash and care for your hair in another post. Keep in mind: Washing your hair will always remove moisture - make sure you replenish it.
  • Get regular maintenance cuts, about every 2 months. Trimming your ends will remove splits and dead ends and will promote growth.
  • Eat healthy and protein-rich foods and drink a lot of water. Remember: Hair is almost all protein. Vitamins B, C, Biotin and Folic Acid will nourish your hair as well.
  • Essential oils will stimulate hair follicles, and replenish the scalp. Ask for an oily supplement when getting your scalp massage.

All about waxing 🦵

Have you been thinking about waxing but aren't sure if it's right for you or what to expect? This one's for you! Here are a couple of tips to get you ready for your first wax appointment. Waxing vs. shaving- waxing pulls the hair directly from the root, rather than trimming it to the skin, so your smooth skin will last longer with a wax. You may experience some redness after your wax, but it's only temporary. Any redness or irritation should subside within a day or two. Regular waxing appointments should be scheduled every 4-6 weeks but can differ on your personal needs. Exfoliation between appointments helps to prevent ingrown hairs and leave your skin softer and with less texture. No your hair wont grow back thicker because you wax! Please let your esthetician know about any allergies before your wax appointment. Avoid sun, hot baths, or hot tubs and pools for 24 hours. Lastly, take a deep breath and relax! Waxing is quick and easy, and we know you'll love the res...
