professional hair care

“The second season of the Transfiguration project fell at the end of winter – early spring. Many participants complain that, due to overdried, conditioned air, the hair becomes brittle, dry, and highly electrified. But we can cope with this problem by following a few simple rules, ”says Lilia Zamaletdinova.

It’s no secret that your favorite products lose their effectiveness over time. Moreover, we often choose shampoo, guided by the brand, obsessive advertising, our own ideas about the condition of the hair.

– First of all, do a scalp test. It can change over time and also depending on the season. Wash your hair in the morning, apply a napkin to your scalp in the evening. If the tissue is dry, there are no “troubles” such as itching or dandruff – you have normal hair. If the napkin is dry, but the hair is highly electrified, the head itches and dandruff is visible – you need a shampoo for dry hair. Oily scalp leaves visible marks on the napkin. Try to find a balance between washing your hair infrequently and too often. Given the industrial nature of our city, as well as the high level of exhaust gases, I think it is optimal to wash your hair every other day. Helpful hint: use nourishing shampoos in winter, moisturizing shampoos in summer.

What we are used to doing every day can both positively affect the condition of the hair and aggravate existing problems.

– Try to use a wooden comb with coarse teeth, which I advise you to change once every three months. Try not to touch your hair with your hands during the day. If the hair is highly electrified, you can use such a little life-like: rinse it with highly carbonated mineral water, then dry it with cool air. If you dye your hair, give up dyes that contain ammonia forever. If it seems to you that without it the color is not so persistent, contact a stylist who will select a professional ammonia-free dye for you. If the iron is your main assistant, keep in mind that you can use it only after washing your hair, having dried it well beforehand. The next day, for example, there is no moisture in the hair, and I do not recommend using an iron.

In especially difficult cases, professional treatment is indispensable. What treatments are ideal for spring?

– Now homemade masks are very popular. My experience suggests that modern professional tools are in no way inferior to them. Therefore, if you do not have time or desire to make masks yourself, feel free to buy ready-made industrial cares. The main thing is to choose them for your skin type and actual hair needs. The most popular treatments on the eve of spring are collagen restoration, which fills the hair with strength, gives it volume and shine. An important advantage of this procedure is the cumulative effect, as a result of the series, you can achieve a lasting effect for up to 4 months. I also recommend a hot wrap to my clients, which “seals” the split ends and makes the hair healthy. If you are worried about insufficient volume, you can do fleece – a procedure that provides persistent root volume for up to 4 months. With it, you can save a huge amount of styling time.
