Keep your hair looking great!

Hair styles and haircuts come and go in the beauty industry and at Skyline Downtown Salon we are here to help you achieve the best look for you.  But one of the most timeless ways to look and feel glamorous is to keep your hair healthy. Healthy hair looks good in any color and any style. By now you all know that blow drying, curling, flat ironing and heavy products can do extreme damage to your hair in a short period of time. So if you’re looking to recover your look, and I know you are, here are four things to try.

#1: Keep it Trimmed – I for one, always tell my clients "Keep your hair trimmed." Raggedy, old, split ends not only slow down your hair growth, but they can make your entire style look dry and unkempt. Trim your hair every four to six weeks, even a half an inch can make a big difference.

#2: Take a Break – Give your hair a break! Your hair can easily take too much heat and start to become brittle and burned. Give yourself a few weeks off from the heat. Try new hairstyles that work with air drying, like pinning your hair into small buns and letting them dry into big waves. If your hair is naturally curly or frizzy, use a bit of product, but try to steer clear of heavy hair sprays, mousses and gels. Ask your stylist at Skyline salon, we will be more than happy to show you how.

#3: Diet – Keep a good diet, cause just like your body, your healthy hair starts from within. Drinking plenty of water and eating a healthy diet will help your skin, nails and hair look and feel stronger. Hydrating your body will help you get rid of toxins, while keeping your hair looking it’s best. Healthy fats are also important in keeping your hair healthy, and a diet rich on salmon, avocados and nuts will help bring life to your hair.

#4: Deep Condition –  That’s right, deep conditioners can work magic on dry, straw-like strands. Some provide extra vitamins and proteins that dry hair definitely needs. As a top hair salon in Kansas City our favorite is Oribe’s Signature Moisture Masque, which is a great soak for deep-hydration and Bumble & Bumble Deep Conditioner, which is filled with silk and Panthenol, and turns burned out hair into super soft tresses after your first use.
