Tips for Healthy Hair

September 14, 2023
Hair is naturally prone to damage. Combine that with regular styling, coloring, shampooing and exposure to various environmental elements, and it’s no wonder maintaining healthy locks requires time and effort.

Here are some tips to maintain healthy hair between your salon visits!

1. Nourish from within.
Your hair’s appearance is a reflection of your inner health and requires a variety of complex nutrients. A whole-foods diet is key, and certain supplements can provide extra benefits.

2. Wash only when necessary.
Over-washing can strip your hair of the natural oils that moisturize and protect it, especially if you’re using water that’s too hot.
Washing every other day with cool or lukewarm water tends to work best for individuals with fine hair that shows oil more easily, while those with thicker hair textures can get away with washing less frequently — every two to three days, and sometimes less.
Using the right products at home during this time is crucial for maintaining your style without washing. Style-extenders and dry shampoos can keep your hair looking and smelling fresh. You can also sleep with a silk pillowcase to help tame frizz and retain moisture.

3. Condition every time you wash.
Use conditioner every time you shampoo to help close down the hair cuticle and prevent frizz and flyaways during drier months.

4. Deep condition once a week.
For extra hydration, use a deep conditioning mask once a week.

5. Be careful with heat.
Your time at home may also be the perfect occasion to take a break from heat styling. Too much heat can lead to dryness, breakage, and split ends. While there’s no need to swear off using heat on your hair for good, consider these techniques to help protect your strands.

6. Use the right hairbrush.
Not all brushes are created equal. If your hair tends to get knotted when washing, use a brush that’s designed for wet hair to detangle without damaging or causing pain. Boar-bristle brushes are great for gentle smoothing and for use on hair extensions.

7. Avoid products with parabens.
If you have color-treated hair, you’ll want to avoid anything with parabens in it, they cause it to look dull and feel weighted down.

Father's Day is coming and there is no better time to show the Dads in our lives some well earned self-care! This month, it is all about giving him the tools to feel confident in his skin - because giving him great skin never looked better. Let’s be honest—many men were never taught the importance of skincare beyond a bar of soap and maybe an occasional splash of aftershave. But the truth is, men’s skin faces just as much stress and exposure as women’s, and in many cases, even more. Daily shaving, sun exposure, pollution, and the natural production of oil can lead to irritation, clogged pores, and premature aging. A consistent skincare routine isn't about vanity, it's about investing in your skin’s long-term health. Why Men’s Skin Needs a Different Kind of Care Men typically have thicker skin with more oil glands than women, making them more prone to enlarged pores and breakouts. Facial hair adds another layer of complication, often trapping dirt, bacteria, and oil underneath. Without proper care, this can lead to ingrown hairs, irritation, or dullness. Taking time to treat the skin—especially beneath the beard—isn’t just beneficial, it’s necessary to keep the skin healthy, clear, and balanced. This Father’s Day, give the men in your life something truly refreshing: a treatment designed just for them. Our Custom Express Glow Facial w/ Microdermabrasion ($60; 30 mins) is tailored specifically to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin beneath any facial hair. Treat the man in your life to a facial that goes beyond the surface. All of our other facials we can customize for male skin. Also we can combine any of our facials with out massage services and our head spa! Book online or call 916-443-1400 Luxe Hair Lounge + Day Spa 2015 J St SAC 95811 www.luxe-midtown.com
