If you’re in the mood to transform your tresses, the world of hair treatments provides exciting and effective options. From deep conditioning masks to keratin treatments, it’s important to select a hair treatment service that suits your hair type and achieves your vision. But with so much information (and sometimes misinformation) out there, how do you pick the right treatment for your hair?
Step 1: Know Your Hair Type
- Type 1: Straight – Straight hair may be fine or thick and can be prone to oiliness. Look for treatments that add texture and body, like volumizing mousses or root-lifting sprays.
- Type 2: Wavy – Characterised by a gentle, tousled look. Wavy hair may be prone to frizz. Lightweight mousse or moisture treatments can help.
- Type 3: Curly – Curly hair can become coarse and often frizzy, and thick hair craves hydration. Try deep conditioning treatments with rich ingredients like shea butter.
- Type 4: Coils – This type of hair has an S-curl and is naturally dry and prone to frizz and breakage. Be very gentle, and use hydrating, and conditioning treatments with emollients.
Step 2: Consider Your Hair Goals
When considering which hair treatment service is right for you, ask yourself what your hair goals are. Do you want to combat dryness and damage? In this case, deep conditioning treatments and hair masks packed with protein and moisture are your best bet. Are you more focused on fighting frizz? Smoothing treatments like keratin can tame frizz and create a sleek, polished look. If you are after shine, vibrancy, and body, speak to your hairdresser about nourishing oils and volumising treatments that add oomph to flat hair.
Step 3: Consult a Hair Professional
Hairdressers are your hair gurus! Don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with a professional to discuss your hair concerns and goals. The professional team at Nivarna Hair Studio in the Blue Mountains will assess your hair type, recommend suitable treatments, and even suggest products to maintain your desired look. We’ll never suggest a treatment that is too harsh for your hair.
Bonus Tip: Listen to Your Hair!
Finally, while hair treatment services can be super effective when selected carefully, it’s also important to pay attention to how your hair reacts to different treatments. If a product leaves your hair feeling weighed down or greasy, it’s probably not a good fit. The best treatment is the one that leaves your hair feeling healthy, manageable, and looking its absolute best!
