We believe in allowing natural oils to provide body and beauty to our hair. Although this is a universal recommendation for healthy hair, the air in Calgary is particularly dry and a new cycle of washing should be considered. Think of this - reducing the cycle of hair washing and removal of the natural oils can begin with a slow change.

If you're used to washing your hair every day - try adding a day and wash it every second day. Then, 6 to 12 months later, add one more day. Regular wetting, conditioning, rinsing, drying and styling still applies, but you'll notice your hair is easier to manage as it recovers from the years of damage done by daily treatment with cleaning chemicals.

So, add another day every 6 to 12 months and feel your hair grow healthier. Then at the extent of your comfort level - washing your hair once a week (ten days - two weeks?) and then treating with conditioner, rinses, styling and drying will have become a more healthy, easy to manage and hair-friendly practice. You'll notice your hair shines more, styles easier, feels healthier and looks radiant,

Meryl Streep washes her hair every two weeks. That's right, two weeks between shampoo treatments. Rinsing, conditioning and styling, of course are more frequent. Ask Sharon for details next time you're in for an appointment, or just use our contact page for more information.

And what about styling? Instead of relying on your own technique - try this - book an appointment to come by and have your hair styled and blow dryed.  Prior to any engagement, or at the start of the week, come in and have Sharon style and dry your hair - the result lasts through days when you take Sharons advice on washing and conditioning and let your hair's natural oils hold your style through the week.
