• Swimming
Always use a leave in conditioner before swimming As this protects hair from chlorine e.g damaged and colour fade. After swimming is best to wash and condition hair straight away.
• Shampooing Hair
Always choose the right shampoo for your hair type e.g colour, oily, dry etc. Don't wash hair to often – every two to three days. Comb hair while conditioner is on.
When towel drying hair squeeze hair rather then rubbing.
Coming hair through with comb not brush tacking small sections and working from the ends up to the roots.
Recommended product – Tigi Honey and Oatmeal sham/cond
• Drying/Straightening Hair
When straightening hair use hair
serum and blow drying product work through hair and not the root.
Rough dry then take small sections and clip the rest of the hair out the way. Use a round brush – size of brush depends on hair length.
Locking the brush in at the root follow the dryer (with a nosal attached)
above the brush down the hair from root to ends. Working with the nosel pointing downwards will leave the hair smoother.
Recommended products – Tigi Deep Shine and Creative Genius.

• Colour-treated Hair
All colours fade –
especially reds and coppers – so don't wash too often and
always use colour treated shampoo.
Poor shampoo, sun, and swimmin will all fade colours faster.
Silver shampoos reduce yellow brassy tones in blondes.

• Cutting
It is best to maintain regular
cutting especially with short hair.
Even when growing, hair should be cut at least every 12 weeks to prevent spilt ends.
