Let's Talk About Texture Sprays

7/27/2023

0 Comments

 
Texture spray is a super versatile product, and one that everyone should have in their home hair product collections! Texture spray can be used to achieve more volume, to separate curls or waves, and some can even be used to absorb oil to help extend your style! 

There are two main types of texture sprays: dry texture sprays and sea salt sprays. Dry texture spray is applied to dry hair to add texture and separation, while sea salt spray is applied to wet hair to create a beachy texture working with natural wave patterns. 

As a stylist, I have to say I am obsessed with the dry texture sprays and I use them on all my clients! The best part? They are honestly such an easy product to use: after styling just spray the texture product in before hairspray (if using hairspray), brush it through, and then apply again! 

My favourite dry texture sprays are:

Kevin Murphy BEDROOM.HAIR

Picture
​Basically this is the epitome of bedroom hair that is sexy and edgy. In addition to adding texture and separation, it also acts as a light hair spray. Your hair feels touchable thanks to just the right balance of texture, separation, and movement. 

Kevin Murphy DOO.OVER

Picture
One of the absolute faves around the salon is Doo.Over. It's a dry powder finishing spray that allows for natural movement while holding everything in place, with the right amount of hold.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

Picture
This one is seriously amazing. It's an ​invisible dry hair spray that builds incredible volume, gives good curl separation, and creates sexy texture. As a bonus, it absorb oil at the roots without leaving any powdery residue, for a great alternative to dry shampoo that keeps styles lasting for days. And of course, it smells sooo good.
For those beach wave days, my go to salt sprays are Hair Resort Spray from Kevin Murphy, and Oribe’s Après Beach or Matte Waves. They help build that wave and texture and they smell aaaamazing!!! 
​Now that I have shared all my texture faves with you, I want to know… Do you use texture spray? Tell me in the comments or send me a DM to chat about styling and product recommendations!!

3 Reasons to Use Heat Protectant for Healthier, Happier Hair

7/11/2023

0 Comments

 
​Using Heat Protectant is essential when using hot tools on your hair - but why?

Heat protectant products help to reduce the amount of damage that your hair sustains when exposed to high temperatures. They work by forming a protective barrier around the hair shaft, which helps to prevent moisture loss and breakage. Still not convinced? Here are some of the main benefits of heat protectant:

1) ​Avoid Split Ends & Breakage


​One of the main benefits of using heat protectant is that it can help prevent split ends and breakage. When using hot styling tools on your hair, the high temperatures can cause the hair shaft to become dry and brittle. By using a heat protectant product, you are actively promoting healthy and strong hair!

2) Reduce Frizz & Flyaways


​When you use hot tools on your hair, the high temperatures can cause the hair cuticle to become rough and uneven leading to frizz and flyaways. Using a heat protectant can help to smooth the hair cuticle and reduce frizz, leaving your hair smooth and shiny!

3) Extend the Life of Your Hairstyle


​The use of hot tools without heat protectant can cause your hairstyle to fall flat more quickly. Using a heat protectant will help to keep your hairstyle looking fresh and bouncy for longer!
Heat protectant products are an important step in protecting your hair from damage caused by hot tools. Say goodbye to split ends, breakage, frizz, flyaways, and flat hairstyles with some of our favourite heat protectants:

Bri's Top Products That Everyone Needs

7/3/2023

0 Comments

 
​Hello everyone, Bri from Salon Society here! ​As a stylist, I get to see and sample all the different products and brands both on my hair and my clients' hair. My hair is fine with a natural wavy texture and these products are my top favourites that I cannot live without - and ones that I bet you'll fall in love with too! 

Kevin Murphy Session Spray Flex

  • Holds fine hair that doesn’t normally hold curl 
  • Not sticky or crunchy 
  • Not drying ​
I like to use this hairspray when I’m curling my fine hair. I section my hair in three sections and spray each section before I curl it. Once all my hair is curled I give it an extra spray, let it cool, then brush them out - and BOOM gorgeous curls that last!
Picture

Kevin Murphy Body Mass

  • For the thin hair friends 
  • Created using eyelash thickening technology 
  • Helps strengthen hair 
  • Creates fullness & thickness ​
Picture
I like to use this thickening volumizer after I wash my hair! First, I apply my leave-in conditioner and then spray Body Mass all over, focusing mostly on my roots. Then I am ready to blow dry and get some gorgeous volume! 

Hot Tip - Body Mass can also be used as a heat protectant up to 420°F (232°C)!

Kérastase Nutritive 8hr Magic Night Serum

  • Nourishes and repairs overnight 
  • Reverses daytime damage 
  • Booster for dry hair but beneficial for all hair types 

​I use this serum every night! I put 2-4 pumps in my hands, rake it through the mids and ends of my hair, I brush it through, go to sleep, and wake up with gorgeous smooth hair!
#magic.
​
If I am finding my hair to be reeaaaalllllyyy dry, I will add a pump of my favourite hair oil with the night serum and the results are incredible!
Picture

Kérastase ​Specifique Bain Divalent

& ​Masque Réhydratant

  • Best for oily prone hair 
  • Purifies the scalp
  • Reduces excess oil and odours 
  • Nourishes and strengthens hair shaft ​
  • Lightweight 
  • Adds extra moisture and hydration 
  • Prevents loss of proteins, collagen diners, and elastin ​
​This shampoo + mask duo has been a game changer for my hair! As mentioned above, I have fine hair but a lot of it has a natural wave. My roots would always get really oily quickly but since starting with this shampoo I can go further between wash days and don’t need to rely on dry shampoo as much to keep my hair looking fresh!! 
​
Since my hair has a natural wave, the ends can get pretty dry (and I also have pretty damaged, over processed hair); this mask has helped give my hair the hydration it needs while strengthening it. My hair no longer feels dry and the frizz is under control!
Picture

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

  • Adds volume and texture 
  • Absorbs oil at the roots, brilliant dry shampoo alternative 
  • Provides UV protection

​I love using this dry texture spray when I’m going out! It gives that extra hold my curls are looking for, plus amazing volume at my roots!
Picture

​Aaaand those are my faves! I hope that you get a chance to try some of them out!!
Have any questions? Shoot me a DM, drop a comment, or book in to see me for a free consultation!

European Blowout Superstar Products

6/21/2023

0 Comments

 
Hello! Stefan here from Salon Society. I have been a hairstylist for 16 years and am one of the two SASO stylists that offer the European Blowout. The European Blowout is a luxury experience which results in an iconic, voluminous, silky finish. Today I am going to spill some of my European Blowout secrets andtell you about the superstar products that make this blowout result so stunning.

The European Blowout is completed using our fave European product line Kerastase Paris. I first started my training with Kérastase Paris in 2011, I absolutely fell in love with the products, became a certified Kérastase specialist, and have been using them ever since! 

The foundation to a fabulous blowout is always understanding the hair type I am working with and pairing technique + products to reach the desired soft, shiny, and bouncy result. 

These are the best products to achieve these results:
​
Picture

Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin Riche

A proper foundation starts with clean and hydrated hair. This Kerastase shampoo is fortified with conditioning polymers that enhance nutrition to fragile areas and optimize shine.

Kérastase Fusio-Dose Treatment 

Fusio-dose treatments are an in salon treatment for dry hair that lacks luster and moisture.With up to 30 unique combinations, the Fusio Dose in-salon treatments instantly transform your hair. Composed of two parts, a concentre and a booster, Fusio Dose treatments are performed by trained Kerastase stylists to help you address your main hair concerns and are formulated based on your hair goals! The results are instant and last for at least 5 washes. 
Picture

Kérastase Resistance Ciment Thermique

This product is a thermo activated resurfacing reconstructive milk that strengthens the fibre from the inside and re-creates the outer protective layer - so you get heat protection and a silky smooth finish. ​

Kérastase Chronologiste Huile de Parfum

And finally finishing the look with the Chronologiste Huile de Parfum. This nourishing oil reduces breakage, provides strength, and adds shine. Finishing your styling with a nourishing oil is a great way to manage frizz and static and keep a sleek finish. ​
Picture
Now you have the inside scoop on all the products that are used to create the stunning European Blowout! I hope these products will help you get a better at-home blowout. Which product are you most excited to try?

Ask a Stylist: Hair Masks

8/7/2022

0 Comments

 
​So we all know that hair masks are great and that they are SO beneficial for our hair… but how am I supposed to be using them? Is this like an everyday thing? Is this a one size fits all? Wait, was I supposed to put conditioner in after I rinsed it out? WAS I SUPPOSED TO RINSE IT OUT???


​…If you have ever wondered if you were doing things right, you are not alone! A lovely client recently reached out to her Salon Society stylist after receiving a sample Kérastase hair mask in her online order with very similar questions, which started us thinking about all the FAQs regarding hair masks we get at Salon Society on the regular. Then we took this list to our girl (and Master Hair Artist) 
Shanna and had her give us the answers!

And now we have created this ultimate hair mask rundown:
Picture
How often should you use a hair mask?
Depends how often you wash your hair! If you wash it about once a week, use a mask every other time you wash. If you wash your hair more often, like every day or every other day, use a mask once per week. Also, don't wash your hair every day!
​
​Does a hair mask replace conditioner?

Swimmer's Hair - How to Treat Dry, Damaged Locks

7/17/2022

0 Comments

 
​Hey friends! It is summer and that means sunshine, great weather, and pools!! Unfortunately, while hanging in the pool all day is great for having a good time, it is not great for our hair. Hair that is exposed to the chemicals in pools or all that salt in the ocean can become dry, damaged, and even discoloured. This is known as Swimmer’s Hair.
​
How it works…
​There are a number of chemicals found in pools that cause damage to hair including bromine, chlorine, salt, and copper. When our hair comes into contact with these chemicals they can break down the keratin protein bonds, resulting in visibly damaged hair. Additionally, swimming in the ocean exposes your hair to all that sea salt; salt strips hair of its oils, causing it to dry out and subsequently become damaged. Copper, surprisingly, is one of the most damaging water additives and it is often used to prevent algae and microorganisms from growing in pools!
​
Picture
Picture
Picture
What you can do about it… 
​​Prevention is ideal. If you're swimming laps on the regular or are sure to get your locks wet, consider a swimming cap or turban (swimming turbans are the swimming caps' far more fashionable cousin). If you're hot tubbing or chilling in a pool, try a high ponytail or bun!
​
If you know you are going to be putting your hair in the water, dampening hair with water prior to entering a pool or ocean can help with reducing the absorption of salts and chemicals. 


There are also some pretty incredible products designed to protect and repair your locks!

Even better, you may already have the first in your shower: a great clarifying shampoo like Maxi Wash by Kevin Murphy. Maxi Wash removes the build-up of unwanted products and chemicals (including chlorine build-up) from the hair – this makes it an ultimate swimmer must-have.


Next up, is the Argile Équilibrante. This treatment is a detox clay that intensely, yet gently, cleanses and purifies the scalp. Containing Amino Acid and Kaolin Clay that helps to balance sebum on the scalp, remove pollution and impurities like a magnet, whilst making hair look volumized. Enriched with menthol, it leaves the scalp feeling invigorated and refreshed. 


Anddd the star of this show: the Kérastase Soleil line. The Soleil collection from Kérastase acts as a shield for hair, protecting against both sun and UV damage. Its range of four ultra-nourishing products help prevent dryness and fading from chlorine and salt water - so basically everything we need to protect from swimmer's hair!

Oh Snap, It's a Trap!

BY AILESH ABRAMS

Kerastase products available at Salon Society
OK, so your stylist has converted you using amazing salon-quality products and you can now navigate that drugstore aisle like a pro:
​

“Not today, Head & Shoulders!”
“Box dye? No beuno.”


…but wait a minute, is that *insert fancy product name* being sold in my local drugstore?!?
We get it, it’s confusing. But, as with many things, luxury salon brands available at a drugstore is too good to be true. BUT I'M SEEING IT WITH MY OWN EYES – how?

​This question has an answer that can be summed up in one word: DIVERGENCE.

​Before going forwards, let's take a step back to the behind-the-scenes of salon retail. As a salon, when we decide to bring in a new luxury product line, we need to apply for the right to do so – and they can say no! 
For example, when Salon Society wanted to partner with Oribe, we needed to communicate with the Oribe brand reps to be sure that we would be a good fit! These luxury brands want to be sure that the salons that carry their products are able to properly use, educate, sell, and represent the brand as an ambassador.
As you can imagine, these types of brands also commit to not selling their products to drugstores/major retailers. Additionally, many of these brands invest time and money into the prevention and interruption of unauthorized sales to avoid unhappy customers or damage to their brand. When you find luxury brands on Amazon or in Walmart, what is actually being sold is a diverted product.
​
“Diverted products can be counterfeit, diluted formulas, or old, expired formulas that may not be safe to use. Contaminated or counterfeit products could cause irritation or even infection.”

​- Kérastase Official 2022
​
So that’s the nitty-gritty of it – when you find these diverted products you are really rolling the dice on whether or not you are getting what you’re paying for!

Genesis Homme: The Top Products for Men's Hair Loss

5/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Genesis Homme Infographic by Salon Society
Did you know that male hair loss affects nearly 1/3 of all men by the age of 30?

What about that 70% of men experience hair loss at some point in their lives?
​
And finally (and shockingly) did you know that, contrary to popular belief, male hair loss is not all genetic? Much of the hair loss experienced by men is actually caused by routine - we’re making you rethink that 7-in-1 dollar store find, aren’t we?


Kérastase's new Genesis Homme line has been formulated for men's hair concerns, specifically reducing hair loss and stimulating growth for fuller, stronger hair. This line includes research-backed ingredients utilized to stimulate and wake up hair follicles. Using clinical studies and instrumental tests, Genesis Homme is scientifically proven to thicken hair fibres, reduce hair loss, improve hair strength, and enhance hairlines for a fuller look after just 6 weeks of usage.
​

​OKAY COOL - BUT HOW DOES IT WORK?

Let’s jump into the science behind these ingredients:

A combination of ginger root, creatine, and expanding polymer instantly offers hair more volume by strengthening the hair fibres and plumping the hair. Aminexil is the star ingredient featured in the Genesis Homme serum that prevents hair loss. Using the full Genesis Homme product line gives your hair a cocktail of goodness resulting in hair that will look fuller in no time.
Genesis Homme ingredients

​GINGER ROOT provides a number of benefits for hair. First, it stimulates blood flow which leads to increased hair growth. Second, ginger root has been shown to reduce scalp problems, like dandruff, thanks to its antimicrobial properties. Third, it is an antioxidant which helps prevent split ends and breakage. And finally, the fatty acid chains in ginger root act as a deep conditioner for creating strong, healthy hair!

CREATINE repairs and strengthens hair fibres from the inside out. Creatine is a naturally-occurring derivative of amino acids, whose purpose in hair products is to help to boost cell metabolism and deeply moisturize dry scalps and hair. It also provides protection against heat damage and harmful UV rays. All of these benefits lead to fuller hair!
​
AMINEXIL is a bit of a superstar around here. It works by widening the blood vessels and promoting greater blood flow to the hair follicles - and of course more blood flow = more nutrients = happy hair! Aminexil works to prevent hair loss while stimulating re-growth, resulting in longer, thicker, and fuller hair. Additionally, Aminexil creates a more supple, hospitable scalp environment by gently melting collagen buildup that can otherwise harden causing breakage and damage.
​

Fun Fact: Research has shown that Aminexil counteracts hair loss in the Spring and maintains hair density in the Fall, a process influenced by the different phases of hair growth
