Clear Out Your Old Hair Products

Let's admit it – many of us keep half-empty bottles of products we haven't touched in years. It's essential to check the expiration dates on your products and toss out any that are past their prime.

Expired hair products won't work as effectively and can sometimes irritate your skin. Keep an eye on creams or liquids, as they can get clumpy when they expire. Sprays are less likely to expire quickly, but it's still good to check.

If you have unopened products you don't need, consider donating them to a local charity.

Now that you've cleared some space, it's the perfect time to stock up on fresh supplies or try something new. Check out our online shop or visit our salon, where our team can help you find the perfect products for your hair.

Be a Good Workman - Clean Your Tools!

We all understand the importance of keeping our makeup brushes clean to avoid skin issues caused by bacteria. But did you know the same applies to your hairbrushes?

Hair, dead skin cells, styling products, and oil can accumulate in your brushes, creating a breeding ground for bacteria.

To keep your brushes clean, remove any built-up hair and use a deep-cleansing shampoo weekly. If you have a wooden or paddle brush, check the manufacturer's guidelines before washing to avoid damage. A quick rinse with hot water should do the trick for most brushes.

Electrical styling tools like curlers or straighteners can also collect grime. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the styling plates. Avoid using anything abrasive, as it can damage the plates.

Don't overlook your hairdryer filter, which can trap dust and dirt. Remove the filter and wipe it with a warm, damp cloth to remove debris. Make sure it's completely dry before putting it back in place.

Use Seasonally Appropriate Products

Just like we adjust our skincare routine for different seasons, our hair needs special care too.

When the sun comes out, your hair might lose colour or become dry. To protect it, use products with SPF. Dry hair could use some extra conditioning, which you can get at our Halifax salon. Hot weather can also make your scalp and hair oily, so you might want to switch up your home hair care products.

If you're unsure which products to pick for the season, check out our online shop or talk to your Anthony James stylist. We'll help you find the perfect products for your hair.

Consider Your Bedding

Have you ever thought about how your bedding affects your hair? Even if you sleep peacefully, your hair and face move against your pillow for hours each night. This friction, especially on a cotton pillowcase, can lead to frizzy or easily breakable hair.

To avoid waking up with a messy bed head, consider getting a silk pillowcase. Dermatologists even suggest it can help prevent wrinkles, so it's worth a shot! If silk isn't your thing, just make sure to regularly wash and change your cotton pillowcase. This helps prevent dirt and bacteria build-up, keeping your hair and skin healthy.
