Myth #1. "Oily Hair makes Colour take better" ...........TOTALLY FALSE GUYS and here's why. The Colour has to fight through all that oil buildup that acts as a barrier and Colour may not take as even as the ends that are dry due to different porosity/ph level.
* The reason for saying was to prevent irritation of scalp from color with ammonia....but no worries since NOW there are ammonia free options :)
To keep it simple just wash your hair the day before your appointment.
Tip: Oily hair for any formal/event styling is also a No No
Myth #2. "Cutting your Hair will make it grow faster" ....FALSE. Hair grows out of the the scalp so growth rate is determined by nutrients in your blood aka how healthy you are.
To Grow Hair longer THE ONLY SECRET is you must keep the hair from getting SPLIT ENDS so a trim at least every 8 weeks is a MUST!
An Extra FYI....Cutting hair from ends DOES NOT give you more volume at roots! It's all in the way you manipulate your hair at roots during blowdry ....we teach all of our guests many tips and tricks so not to worry!
Myth #3. "Hair grows Faster & Thicker if you shave it" (this also goes for facial & body hair too!)
Now this is FALSE because as you see in photo below the base of hair closer to root is thicker and thinner at the tip.....so when you shave you are cutting it off at thickest part of strand so it ''appears thicker".
Now waxing pulls hair completely out of root so it will regrow in with a fine tip as all hair does.
That's why cutting our ends makes it appear thicker as well.
Myth #4. “Switching shampoos frequently is good for your hair ”....FALSE
You don’t need to switch your shampoo just because. Doing so isn’t going to make your shampoo any more effective. Instead, swap out your shampoo when your hair’s cut, colour, or needs change.
Myth #5. "You can't Colour your Hair if your pregnant" .....False
The only reason they say this is to limit your exposure to inhalation of ammonia... BUT THANKS TO AMMONIA FREE PRODUCTS you are safe!
Myth #5. " Covering Over a color you don't like by going darker gives you a clean slate"FALSE
For example: With highlights you didn't like ....You would just be bleaching over already bleached hair causing it to break.
Myth #6. " You only need to shampoo Once"......FALSE
Water & oil are NOT soluble (think of oil/vinegar dressing) and for this reason does not fully clean oil from scalp.
You must do 2 shampoos and only scrub at scalp. Since ends are dry and more fragile you just want to gently glide shampoo over ends and not create any friction. Friction = frizz
(Thank us later because now you won't have to shampoo everyday with this tip)
What other Hair Myths have you guy's heard of ?
Would love to hear them in comments section!
