From professional salon treatments to over-the-counter products, hair care is a multi-million pound business.

At Fordes on the Green Coventry Hairdressers, we have found that the main problem is whilst many people are buying the right hair care products for their hair, they forget to follow basic hair care advice that will guarantee they will have beautiful and healthy hair. Many people are also causing needless damage to their hair by participating in unhealthy hair care behaviour, here’s some advice from Coventry Hairdressers to put you on the right path to beautiful hair.

Coventry Hairdressers 10 essential DOs for great hair care.

1. Use the correct hair care products for your specific hair type. If your hair is
    damaged or dry, use professional hair care products formulated specifically to repair
    this damage and add much-needed shine. If your hair is greasy, use a deep
    cleansing shampoo and light conditioner to keep your hair looking its best.
    Coventry Hairdressers can supply the right products for your hair care routine.

2. Get a trim every 6 to 8 weeks at Coventry Hairdressers. Getting a trim every 6 to 8
    weeks as part of your regular hair care routine is essential. Even if you want to
    grow your hair longer, it is still vital to get a routine trim as a major part of your hair
    care routine. A small trim from Coventry Hairdressers will ensure that ends are cut
    before they split, this will keep your hair looking healthier and save you hair care
    headaches in the long run.

3. Use hair care products that contain a sunscreen. Protect your hair with hair care products that contain a sunscreen, speak to one of
    our experts at Coventry Hairdressers for further details.

4. Only wash your hair when it’s dirty. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to wash your hair daily, doing so can make your hair dry
    and hard to work with.

5. Visit the professionals at Coventry Hairdressers for all of your hair care needs. Everyone knows someone who can do your hair for you,
    but, whilst friends and amateur beauticians do not cost as much as putting your hair care needs in the hands of a qualified
    professional, they often cause blunders that end up costing you more money and a lot of heartache than if you visited Coventry
    Hairdressers in the first place.

6. Only use professional conditioning hair colouring systems. There is a wide range of colouring systems on the market for your hair, the
    one you choose can have a great impact on the health of your hair and your hair care costs. Always choose a colouring system that
    causes minimal damage and conditions your hair as it colours. If in any doubt, contact a member of the Coventry Hairdressers team for
    expert advice.

7. Only use one with one chemical system. In order to keep your hair as healthy as possible, ask a member of the Coventry Hairdressers
    team for advice on using only one chemical system on your hair, e.g. colour or perm. By only using one service that suits your particular
    style and needs, you will ensure that your hair stays healthier and stronger.

8. Choose a hair colour that compliments your style. With the vast array of professional colouring techniques that are available from
    Coventry Hairdressers, you have never had a greater choice for your desired look. From gorgeous highlights to a soft new colour, you
    can enhance your style and your complete look with the right technique.

9. Add texture to your hair. By adding texture to your style, through a perm or a cut, you can vastly reduce the time it takes to style and
    perform your daily hair care routine. Talk to one of the Coventry Hairdressers team for professional advice on adding texture and body
    to your hair.

10. Only use a wide toothed comb when your hair is wet. Only comb your hair with a wide toothed comb when it is wet to prevent
      breakage. Only use a brush during your hair care routine when your hair is dry or barely damp.

Coventry Hairdressers 10 essential DON'Ts for great hair care.

1. Avoid cheap over the counter hair care products whenever you can. Many of these
    can damage your hair and only offer false hopes and promises. Coventry Hairdressers
    offer a comprehensive range of all the hair care products you could possibly need.

2. Never be tempted to cut your own hair. Leave all of your cutting needs to Coventry
    Hairdressers.

3. Try and avoid excessive sun, chlorine and salt water during the summer months.
    Too much exposure can cause severe damage to your hair.

4. Do not use clarifying hair care products more than once per week, they can strip your hair of moisture and essential oils.

5. Do not let an amateur hairdresser loose on your hair. Everybody has a friend who can do your hair for you, but, whilst friends and
    amateur beauticians do not cost as much as putting your hair care needs in the hands of a qualified professional, they often cause
    blunders that end up costing you more money and a lot of heartache than if you visited Coventry Hairdressers in the first place.

6. Do not buy cheap hair colouring products.

7. Don’t stick with an outdated look because you are afraid of looking different, hair styles change for a reason. Ask a member of the
    team at Coventry Hairdressers for their advice on bringing you into this decade with a new style.

8. Don’t buy cheap hair care equipment. Buy a high quality hairdryer or straightening iron that won't damage your hair, you really do get
    what you pay for.

9. Don't brush your hair or apply too much tension to it while it is still wet, this quite often causes breakage and damage.

10. Never use sun lightening products such as lemon juice to lighten your hair in the sun, that’s unless you want to have a very short hair
      cut in the future.
