5 Reasons Why You Should Regularly Visit a Hairdresser

Keeping well-styled and healthy hair isn’t easy—but regular visits to the hairdresser can make a big difference! With their expertise and use of top-of-the-line haircare products, you’re sure to get the look you want. Here are five great reasons to visit your hairdresser more often.

Get Professional Hair Advice and Care.

When you visit your hairdresser, you will get an expert’s opinion on the best haircut or hair colour for your face shape and skin tone. You’ll also get advice on how to maintain the look and avoid damaging your hair. In addition, they will take care of your scalp health and suggest the most suitable haircare products to help keep your locks looking their best.

Keep Your Hair Looking Great.

One of the most important reasons why you should visit your hairdresser regularly is to keep your hair looking great. Regular trims will help to keep your hairstyle looking neat, healthy and stylish. During each appointment, your stylist can assess the condition of your hair, identify any potential issues and recommend treatments to keep it in perfect condition.

Receive Customer Service Fit For Royalty.

Visiting a hairdressing salon is also an opportunity to treat yourself to some much-needed pampering! You can expect a high standard of service from your hairdresser, providing you with the ultimate experience in luxury. From the styling products used to the selection of drinks and snacks available, you are sure to feel like a king or queen for a few hours.

Avoid Split Ends and Hair Breakage.

Regularly visiting a hairdresser helps to ensure that your hair is healthy, avoiding any split ends or hair breakage. Your hairdresser can help you find the right product for your hair type and give advice on maintaining it with regular conditioning treatments and trims. With their expertise, they can also help you restore damaged splits in your hair, giving you healthier-looking locks in no time!

Maintain Your Best Hair Colour.

When you get your hair coloured, the development time of the colour product is faster, the closer to the scalp it is, as the peroxide kicks in from the natural heat from your scalp.

Therefore, the longer you leave your colour to grow away from the root, the higher the risk for your hair to form colour banding. This is because if we’re only covering an inch of hair (6-8 weeks growth) then the colour will process much faster than if we need to cover 2 inches, resulting in better hair condition due to lesser development time on the scalp, and much less chance of colour banding.

Fancy something new this season?

Why not switch up your style this year? Consider going bold with your colour choice, check out this 50/50 money-piece by Darcy & George this month for some new inspiration…

This particular colour required an initial lightening process, followed by a two stage colour technique, all with WellaPlex treatments throughout to ensure the very best condition at the end result. Time wise you can expect a visit of around 4 hours, so a lengthy process but one sure to make a serious statement!

JESSE’S JOURNEY

This month we’ve launched a raffle in aid of Jesse’s Journey where SIX £100 vouchers are up for grabs with 100% of the ticket sales being donated to a cause very close to our hearts.

In August Jesse was diagnosed with high risk Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) which means that standard treatments available on the NHS potentially may not be successful.

Jesse may now have to look at potential treatments that are only licensed in the USA or the Far East, this is why we are helping to raise £250,000 for his potentially life saving treament.

Ask Friends and Family.

If you’re looking for a new hair stylist, ask friends and family who they recommend. They’ll likely have had positive experiences with different salons, so they should be able to help you out.

This is especially helpful if you live in a small town where finding a good salon isn’t easy.

Look at Salons Nearby.

If you’re looking for a new hair salon in Northampton, start by checking out the local listings. There’s no need to go far; just check out the salons near you.

It’s now so easy to browse through your local area using Google maps which also provides a whole host of business information including reviews, pricing levels, directions and much more.

Visit a Salon Yourself.

One of the easiest ways to find a good salon is to visit one yourself. This will give you an idea of what services are available at the salon, and whether or not the staff members are friendly and helpful.

Here at MAJOR for example offer a free consultation service where you can come in to meet your stylist and talk through the service, style or colour that you are aiming for.

We find this really helps put our guests’ mind at ease when choosing your new salon.
