We know that navigating hair care and treatments can sometimes feel overwhelming, so we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions we hear. Whether you’re preparing for a big transformation or simply maintaining your current style, we’re here to guide you!
1. How Often Should I Wash My Hair?
The frequency of washing depends on your hair type and lifestyle:
Fine or Oily Hair: Every 1-2 days to manage oil buildup.
Thick, Curly, or Dry Hair: 2-3 times per week to maintain natural moisture.
Color-Treated Hair: Wash less frequently and use a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo to protect your investment.
We can recommend a personalized washing schedule and product lineup based on your hair type.
2. How Often Should I Get a Haircut?
Regular trims are essential to maintain healthy hair and a polished style:
Short Hair: Every 4-6 weeks to maintain the shape.
Medium to Long Hair: Every 6-8 weeks to prevent split ends.
Growing Your Hair Out: Every 8-12 weeks to keep your hair healthy while encouraging length.
Curly Hair: Every 8-12 weeks to keep shape and balance in your haircut.
3. How Can I Protect My Hair From Heat Damage?
Heat styling can weaken and damage your hair if not done properly. Here’s how to stay safe:
Always use a heat protectant spray or serum before styling.
Keep tools at a moderate temperature (no higher than 350°F for most hair types).
Limit heat styling to a few times a week.
Opt for professional-quality tools designed to minimize damage.

Schedule regular gloss or toning treatments to revive your color between appointments.

Apply anti-frizz serums or smoothing creams to damp hair before styling.
Consider professional treatments like keratin or glossing to reduce frizz long-term.

Oval Face: Most styles work, so feel free to experiment!
Round Face: Try styles that add length or angles, such as long layers or side-swept bangs.
Square Face: Soften the jawline with waves or face-framing layers.
Heart Face: Balance your shape with chin-length cuts or soft layers.
