Recycle Out Of Date Hair Care

Check the expiry dates on your shampoos, conditioners and styling products then empty and recycle those bottles that are out of date. Hair sprays are less likely to deteriorate but do check all cream or liquid-based products in tubs and bottles.  

Once you've decluttered your bathroom cabinets, you can restock with fresh supplies of your favourite products, or take the opportunity to try something new.  Pop into our Windsor salon and we'll be happy to advise you.

Get Scrubbing Those Brushes!

Regularly clear hair out of your brushes and wash them each week using a gentle cleansing shampoo to avoid brushing dirt and grease back into your hair!  If you use a wooden or paddle brush, check the manufacturer's guidelines on cleaning so that you don't spoil the wood effect, a quick swish with hot water should be sufficient to remove a build up of dirt.  

Wipe Clean Your Styling Tools

Curlers, hair straighteners and curling wands should also be cleaned regularly to get rid of germs, dirt and product build up. Dirty tools will transfer grime back onto your hair and affect how well you can style your locks!

Make sure that you unplug your electrical tools before cleaning and NEVER submerge them in water. Use a lightly damp cloth to clean the styling plates and make sure they are completely dry before you use them again. 

Clear Your #Filters

A hairdryer filter that is full of dirt and dust can really affect how well your dryer performs and can actually be rather hazardous!  Check your manufacturer's instructions first and make sure your dryer is unplugged before removing the filter on the back. Simply wipe with a lightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust, again ensuring that your hairdryer has completely dried before you switch it on again. 

Upgrade Your Bedding

"What has my bedding got to do with my hair?!" we hear you ask! Well, simply put you spend a good few hours every night with your hair and face rubbing against your pillowcases, which can cause hair breakage, bacteria transfer and can even be responsible for added wrinkles in your face!

A silky pillowcase can reduce friction to your hair and dermatologists say that sleeping on a silky smooth surface can help smooth your face, so it's definitely worth a try! If you don't want to get a silky pillowcase, ensure that your bedding is washed regularly to avoid bacteria build up.
