Salon Selection





 Selecting a salon is a critical decision whether or not you are able to care for your hair on your own. You enter into a partnership with the salon you choose and the relationship must work harmoniously for the benefit of your hair.
One way to ensure a successful relationship with your salon is to ensure that even though you may not be able to physically take care of your own hair, you are knowledgeable about the do's and don'ts of proper hair care.
You ensure that the salon informs you of  the cleansing options, shampoo or no shampoo, you ensure that the conditioners used are sufficient and right for your hair type, and you ensure that the combs and brushes  used are clean and do not contribute to split ends. Additionally ensure that styles selected are not too tight and that chemicals are properly applied so as not to compromise the health of your hair and scalp. This will help to avoid more serious scalp issues such as alopecia.
Never be afraid to make requests of your stylist that will ensure the success of your hair care journey.
Additionally, doing your part at home , just the basics, will ensure that the hard work of your good hair stylist is not done in vein. Hairspa Haircare is dedicated to making you an informed consumer.

Avoid Tight Hair Styles

Every woman loves a nice brand new hairstyle and most importantly we want it to be evident that the style was freshly done. This is especially desirable for wearers of weaves and braids. It’s a pleasant sight to see freshly done weaves and braids.

Like most things in life there is a price to pay for everything. In the case of tightly done braids and weaves to achieve a neat freshly done look it’s thinning edges and alopecia.

The act of trying to pull every strand of hair into the braid and pull tight enough so that it gives a neat appearance can not only give you a headache but pull the strands from the root because of the tension exerted by the braid.

If this process is repeated too often then hair thinning is the sure result.

The solution to this problem is the trade-off between healthy hair and extremely neat hair. If the braids are done just a bit more loosely then it will serve as an excellent protective style, with the potential to rest the hair from constant manipulation and promote hair growth.
