How to Layer Products

Layering hair products can transform your hair care routine, delivering optimal results for healthier, shinier, and more manageable locks. However, knowing the right order and combinations is key to avoiding product buildup or counterproductive effects. Here are some expert tips and tricks from Salon Society to help you master the art of product layering for your best hair yet.

why layering matters.

Each hair product serves a specific purpose, whether it’s cleansing, hydrating, protecting, or styling. By layering them correctly, you ensure that each product performs as intended, enhancing the overall health and appearance of your hair. Proper layering also prevents weighing your hair down or causing residue buildup.

The Golden Rule of Layering: Always layer products from the lightest to the heaviest consistency. Lightweight products, such as sprays and serums, should go first to penetrate the hair shaft, followed by creams and oils that seal and protect. 

step-by-step guide to layering hair products.

1. Precleanse and Double Shampoo
For the best cleanse, start with a precleanse or double shampoo routine to remove buildup and prepare your hair for treatments. This is especially important if you use styling products frequently or have an oily scalp.
  • Precleanse: Use Kérastase Chronologiste Pré-Cleanse Régénérant to deeply cleanse the scalp and remove impurities, ensuring a fresh foundation for your hair care routine.
  • Double Shampoo: Begin with a gentle shampoo for cleansing, followed by a targeted shampoo tailored to your hair’s needs. For instance, follow Kérastase Bain Vital Dermo-Calm with Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin Shampoo for hydration.

2. Condition
Follow up with a conditioner or a deeply nourishing masque that addresses your hair’s specific concerns:
  • Conditioner: Use Kérastase Elixir Ultime Fondant for intense hydration and detangling.
  • Alternative: Opt for the Kérastase Chronologiste Masque Intense Régénérant as a luxurious alternative to conditioner. This masque provides deep nourishment, strengthens the hair fiber, and leaves your hair feeling silky and revitalized.

3. Prep with a Leave-In Treatment
After towel-drying your hair, apply a leave-in treatment to provide hydration and prepare your hair for styling. Some favorites include:
  • K18 Leave-In Repair Mask for repairing and strengthening damaged hair.
  • Initialiste Advanced Scalp and Hair Serum for promoting healthier hair growth.

You can layer leave-in products for maximum benefits: apply a scalp-focused serum, such as  Initialiste , to nourish and strengthen at the roots, and follow with a length-focused leave-in, like K18, to hydrate and protect your strands.

4. Detangle
Use a detangling spray or serum to gently remove knots and reduce breakage. Start from the ends and work your way up to avoid damaging your strands. Some great options include:
  • Kérastase Discipline Fluidissime Anti-Frizz Spray to smooth and detangle unruly hair.
  • Kérastase Nutritive Nectar Thermique for added nourishment and manageability.

Helpful Detangling Tips: Make sure to use a wide-tooth comb or detangle brush, be gentle, work in sections, and begin detangling from the ends and gradually move up towards the roots to avoid damage.

5. Protect
Always use a heat protectant before styling with hot tools. This step is non-negotiable to prevent damage from high temperatures. Try:
  • Kérastase Ciment Thermique for repairing and protecting fragile hair.
  • Kérastase Discipline Keratine Thermique for taming frizz and providing heat protection.

6. Style
Now it’s time to layer on your styling products:
  • Volumizer or Mousse: Apply at the roots for lift and volume.
  • Curl Cream or Gel: Work through the mid-lengths and ends for defined curls or waves.
  • Smoothing Serum or Oil: Use sparingly on the ends to add shine and tame flyaways. We love Kérastase Elixir Ultime Oil for its lightweight yet luxurious finish.

​7. Finish
Seal your look with a finishing spray:
  • Hairspray: To lock in your style and provide long-lasting hold.
  • Texture Spray: For a tousled, lived-in look.
  • Shine Spray: For a polished finish.

common mistakes to avoid.

  1. Skipping Heat Protection: Never style without a heat protectant.
  2. Overloading Products: Too many heavy products can weigh your hair down.
  3. Applying Out of Order: Follow the light-to-heavy rule for best results.
  4. Ignoring Your Hair Type: Choose products specifically designed for your hair’s unique needs.

hot tip: consult with the experts.

How to Find a Hairstylist You Can Trust

12/30/2024

0 Comments

 
Picture
Finding the right hairstylist is more than just locating someone who knows how to cut or color hair. It’s about building a relationship with someone who understands your personal style, hair goals, and lifestyle. Whether you’ve recently moved to a new city or are simply ready for a change, here’s a step-by-step guide to finding a hairstylist you can truly trust.

1. Research Local Salons
Start by researching salons in your area. Look for salons with strong reputations, like those with awards or accolades (e.g., the Best of Regina awards). Check their websites and social media accounts to get a feel for their services, aesthetic, and team dynamics. A salon that prioritizes creativity, collaboration, and a welcoming atmosphere is a great place to start!

2. Ask for Recommendations
Word of mouth is a powerful tool. Ask friends, family, or coworkers (or even strangers!) whose hair you love for recommendations. Their firsthand experiences can give you insights into the hairstylist’s skills, professionalism, and personality.

3. Read Online Reviews
Online reviews on platforms like Google can provide valuable feedback about a stylist’s expertise and the overall salon experience. Look for reviews that mention trust, communication, and consistent results.

4. Check Out Their Portfolio
Many hairstylists showcase their work on Instagram or other platforms. Look through their portfolio to see if their style aligns with your vision. Whether you’re looking for precision cuts, blonding, creative colors, or extensions, their past work should inspire confidence.

Hot Tip: Website bios are a great spot to learn more about your stylist too. Look to see if their education and specialties are a match for your needs!

5. Book a Consultation
Before committing to a service, schedule a consultation. This is your opportunity to meet the stylist, discuss your hair goals, chat about budget, and assess their communication style. A great hairstylist will take the time to listen, ask thoughtful questions, and make recommendations based on your hair history and lifestyle.

6. Consider the Salon Experience
Trust goes beyond technical skills. The overall salon experience should make you feel comfortable and valued. A welcoming, inclusive environment with attentive staff sets the tone for a positive relationship.

7. Start Small
If you’re hesitant, start with a smaller service, such as a maintenance haircut or a blowout, to test the waters. This allows you to experience the stylist’s technique and personality without a major commitment.

8. Communicate Openly
Trust is built on clear communication. Be honest about your hair history, styling habits, and expectations. You and your stylist are working as a team – no keeping secrets about a DIY colour disaster!! A great stylist will appreciate your transparency, listen without judgement, and work with you to achieve your desired results.

Finding a hairstylist you can trust may require a bit of research and trial, but the reward is a partnership that leaves you feeling confident and beautiful. At Salon Society, we pride ourselves on creating a luxurious, inclusive experience that prioritizes creativity and collaboration. Whether you’re looking for a new style or maintaining your signature look, our talented team is here to help. Schedule a free consultation today and let us help you achieve your hair goals with care and expertise.

7/5/2024

0 Comments

 
​In the realm of hairstyling, where innovation meets artistry, there’s a textured hair technique we LOVE at Salon Society — the Cadō Signature Curly Cut! This isn’t just any haircut; it’s a bespoke experience crafted to enhance your natural curls, introduce beautifully cascading layers (known as cadō layers), and sculpt a balanced shape that suits both short and long hair.

The Cadō Curly Cut isn’t just about trimming; it’s about transformation. Born from years of expertise and a deep understanding of curly hair dynamics, this cutting-edge technique focuses on enhancing volume, defining curls, and shaping your hair in a way that complements your unique features and preferences.

To book this technique choose our Custom Curl Haircut Session + Definition Styling. 

What Sets It Apart?

1. Cadō Layers
​Unlike traditional layering methods, Cadō layers are strategically designed to enhance your natural curl pattern. These layers flow gracefully, adding depth and movement to your hair.
2. Personalized Precision
Each Cadō haircut is tailored to you. Whether your hair is short or long, the technique aims to balance volume and shape, celebrating the natural texture of your curls.

Preparing for Your Cadō Experience

To ensure your Cadō Signature Curly Haircut exceeds expectations, follow these preparation tips:
​
Hair Preparation
​Arrive with freshly washed, dry hair (washed the day before or on the same day) with minimal product. A touch of curl cream is okay but we really want to see your curls in their natural state.
Styling Note: ​Avoid wearing your hair up or pulled back. This allows your stylist to assess your hair’s natural fall and texture accurately.
Product Insight
​Bring a list of the hair products you typically use. This helps your stylist understand your hair care routine and preferences.
Time Allocation
​Plan for your salon visit to last approximately 1 to 2 hours. This time frame ensures your stylist can dedicate the necessary attention to detail for your Cadō cut.

We love natural curls and we want all of our clients to love and embrace their natural texture! Every Cadō cut appointment has a focus on enhancing your natural beauty and embracing your unique curls. The Cadō signature curly cut promises not just a new look, but a boost in confidence and style!

7 Reasons You Should Try a Scalp Serum

4/17/2024

0 Comments

 
Recently scalp care and scalp serums have begun getting some much-deserved attention - but why should you try adding a Kerastase scalp serum to your routine?
​

1. Healthy Scalp


​Kérastase scalp serums are formulated to promote scalp health. They each contain key ingredients that help nourish the scalp and improve its overall condition.
A healthy scalp is key to healthy hair growth!
​

2. Hair Growth


Kérastase has scalp serums that target hair growth. These serums are designed to promote hair growth by creating a healthier environment for hair follicles. Some of these serums, like Resistance Serum Extentioniste, contain ingredients that stimulate blood circulation in the scalp, which can encourage hair growth!
Picture

3. Anti-Hair-Fall


The Genesis Anti-Breakage Fortifying Serum and the Genesis Homme Sérum Anti-Chute Fortifiant are anti-hair-fall fortifying serums for weakened hair, prone to falling.

​These serums improve hair resistance to minimize hair fall and maximize beautiful hair. Enriched with Aminexil, these serums improve hair resistance to minimize hair fall and maximize beautiful hair. It helps to re-anchor hair follicles more solidly into the scalp while building the optimal environment for future growth.

​Day after day, the serum soothes and reinforces the natural protective barrier of the scalp. The jelly-like texture facilitates easy application and prevents any running of the product. Hair is stronger and more beautiful with a healthier look.

​4. Moisture Balance


​If you struggle with a dry or itchy scalp, the Nutri-Supplement Scalp Serum by Kérastase is a healthy moisturizing scalp serum for dry scalps. This is the ultimate scalp care: a niacinamide serum that provides vitamins to a dry scalp to deeply nourish dry hair & scalp. The serum has a non-greasy fluid formula that provides essential vitamins for a deeply nourished scalp. Acting like a nutrient supplement for the scalp, its milky, fast-absorbing texture makes it the best serum for a dry scalp with up to 23% more scalp moisture immediately after application!
Picture

5. Hair Quality


A healthy scalp is essential for maintaining strong, shiny hair. Kérastase scalp serums can improve hair quality by addressing scalp issues like dandruff, excess oil production, and sensitivity, leading to healthier-looking hair. A healthy balanced scalp truly makes a world of difference in hair quality! ​
Initialiste Cellules Vegetales Natives is an advanced strengthening hair serum and scalp treatment designed for weakened hair looking for strength and regeneration through hair repair and scalp care. Regularly using the Initialiste serum makes hair more resistant with 93% less breakage during brushing. On top of that, it strengthens hair at the root and the overall hair quality is visibly enhanced - more vibrant, beautiful and stronger. Hair repair has never been easier!
Picture

6. Styling Benefits


​Kérastase’s scalp serums are also designed to protect the scalp from heat styling damage or environmental stressors. They create a barrier that shields the scalp and hair follicles, minimizing damage and promoting hair resilience. ​

​Spécifique Serum Potentialiste
is the Universal Scalp Soothing Serum from Kerastase. This serum is the first universal defence serum for unbalanced scalps, preserving the protective scalp barrier against external damage while soothing and calming the scalp. It lifts roots and revitalizes the scalp all while leaving the scalp feeling fresh, healthier, and stronger.
Picture

7. Customized Solutions


​Kérastase offers a wide range of scalp serums tailored to different scalp and hair concerns. Whether you're experiencing dryness, oiliness, thinning hair, or other issues, Kérastase scalp serums can help!


​For example, Symbiose Sérum Nuit Intensif is a night serum for sensitive scalps prone to dandruff and should be used with Bain Crème Apaisant for optimal results. The serum is enriched with salicylic acid for a breathable scalp and Bifidus for a healthier scalp and to remove loose dandruff flakes in the hair.

First Timers Guide to Buying Salon Products

2/22/2024

0 Comments

 
Hello hello from Patricia at Salon Society! One of the things we recommend the most often for the health of your hair is using salon-quality products, but we know that it can be super intimidating trying to pick out which products you need to start with.

​When it comes to buying salon products for the first time, there are a few essentials you'll need. There’s a huge range of benefits that you can see in your hair’s health by using salon products, but today we’re just going to talk about the basics and where to start if you’ve never used quality hair products before!

Firstly, you will want to invest in a good shampoo and conditioner that suits your hair type and its unique needs. Professional products are specially formulated with high-quality ingredients that can provide deep cleansing, nourishment, and hydration to your hair. These formulas can also target specific hair concerns like dryness, frizz, damage, or hair fall. They can help maintain the health and integrity of your hair, leaving it looking and feeling its best. Investing in professional shampoo and conditioner can really make a difference in the overall health and appearance of your hair! 

If you’re not sure where to start (no judgement here, there are so many options!), you can always come to the salon and ask for our help! Our stylists and salon coordinators are always more than happy to assist you in finding products that will work for you! However, if you prefer to shop online or just avoid human interaction (we feel you), here are some great options that are good for most hair types.

KERASTASE

  • Nutritive Bain Satin & Lait Vital
  • Specifique Bain Divalent & Genesis Fondant Renforcateur

BUMBLE AND BUMBLE.

  • Gentle Shampoo & Super Rich Conditioner
  • Creme de Coco Shampoo & Conditioner

SHOP ALL CONDITIONER

The next crucial step is finding a heat protectant spray to shield your hair from damage when using styling tools like blow dryers, straighteners, curling irons, and so on. Heat protectant products form a protective barrier on your hair and strands, reducing the amount of heat that is absorbed. This helps to prevent heat damage — dryness, colour damage, breakage and split ends. Every single time you are using heat on your hair it is essential to use a heat protectant spray or serum beforehand to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy and fabulous. Here are a few of our favourites:

KERASTASE

Sprays/Pumps
  • Discipline Fluidissime
  • Serum Chroma Thermique
  • Chronologiste Thermique Regenerant
  • Genesis Defense Thermique
Cremes
  • Nutritive Nectar Thermique
  • Resistance Ciment Thermique
