Are you experiencing dry hair? Limp with excess frizz?Do your hair products contain Silica or sodium laurel sulphate (SLS) ?

Does this sound familiar? The cycle of hair washing goes like this........

we shampoo our hair because it is dirty

the SLS in the shampoo strips the hair and scalp of natural oils so both are dry and hair is flyaway or frizzy

we use conditioner with silica to reduce the frizziness created by the SLS

the silica builds up on our hair leaving it feeling a bit flat and dull looking

and start all over again, never getting the results we want so change products always looking for something that will give us healthy, shiny hair

Well this is the story of many of our new clients anyway! When you invest in a good natural or organic shampoo & conditioner for at least a month, it can take time to really see results when moving away from SLS and silica. Regardless, do yourself a favor and ditch the sodium laurel sulphate.

The Kasia Team suggests:

Simple hair rehab tips!

1. Brush before you shampoo

Brush before you shampoo ad jump in the shower. This action stimulates the scalp and promotes blood flow to deliver nutrients like oxygen to the hair follicle. Brushing also reduces product buildup and scalp flakes.

2. Clarify the scalp and shaft!

Get rid of build up from hard water and synthetics (silicon and petroleum are hidden in many hair care products …even Aveda). Over time hard water can make hair look lackluster and impart a brassy hue to tresses. The damaging minerals can also make hair a tangle town mess - hard and difficult to be managed.

3. Moisture Me!

The Kasia team strongly suggests our custom professional deep conditioning treatment once a month. This is a great way to relax and keep your hair healthy and shiny in the cooler months. If this isn’t in their budget, we recommend our at home products:

Hamadi Moisturizing Mask

John Masters Dry Hair Nourishment & Defrizzer

(Apply the product to clean, damp hair. Leave on for 5-10 minutes and rinse out.)

4. Air dry!

We encourage our clients to try and let their hair dry slightly before blowing it completely dry. The less hot air they infuse into their locks with the drier, the more moisture they will seal in from their shampoo and conditioning products.

5. Keep frizz away.

Frizzy hair is one of the worst things about the approaching cool weather dryness (think static cling, hat hair…ect.) Kasia’s upcoming shampoo and conditioner launch will have ingredients to help ‘tame the frizz,” but in the meantime….try Shine On from John Masters or Hamadi Shea Spray, an anti-frizz and moisture protector that is applied to towel-dried, damp hair.
