Tired of frequent, expensive salon trips for the whole family? Maintaining that ‘fresh from the salon’ look between appointments is simpler than you think. Here’s how to extend the life of your family’s hairstyles with a few easy steps.
* **Shampoo Smart:** Avoid hot water, which strips hair of its natural oils, leading to a dry scalp. Use cool or warm water instead. Apply a quarter-sized amount of shampoo, massaging it evenly into the hair, and rinse thoroughly. Unless your scalp is particularly oily, avoid double shampooing.
* **Condition Correctly:** Hair needs moisture, but your scalp only needs conditioning if it’s dry. Apply a small amount of conditioner from the mid-shaft to the ends, leave it on for a few seconds, and then rinse well.
* **Detangle Gently:** Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to detangle hair, working from the ends upwards in small sections. Avoid brushing hair while it’s wet, as this can cause breakage.
* **Trim at Home:** Save time and money by performing small trims at home to maintain your family’s style. Products like the Comb’n Cut from Wahl Clipper Corp, are designed to help consumers confidently trim hair at home. The blade is designed to blend, taper, and shape hair effectively.
