1. Shampoo and Conditioner:

Why It's Important:
Shampoo and conditioner are the foundation of your hair care routine. They help
cleanse the scalp of build-up, dirt, and oil while ensuring your hair is hydrated and
nourished.

How to Use:

● Hydrating Shampoo: Look for shampoos that focus on moisture, especially if
you have dry, coarse, or frizzy hair. We recommend Biolage Hydrasource
Shampoo or Matrix Food for Soft Shampoo. Both are designed to provide
intense moisture and help balance hair health.
● Double shampooing helps remove buildup, oils, and dirt on the first wash,
allowing the second wash to cleanse more effectively and prep your hair for
better product absorption. It’s especially useful for oily or product-heavy hair,
leaving your hair feeling cleaner and healthier without stripping moisture.
● Conditioner: Follow up with a hydrating conditioner. Apply it from mid-length
to the ends of your hair, where moisture is most needed. Avoid the scalp if
you tend to get oily roots, as it could weigh down your hair.

TIP if your routine includes purple shampoo:

Be careful not to overuse your purple shampoo!

If you eliminate too much yellow, your hair can end up looking darker, which many people don't want. If you wash your hair twice a week, try using purple shampoo only once a week to maintain brightness without the risk of it looking too dark.

Scalp Massage:
Why It's Important
Your scalp is where hair growth starts, and healthy hair begins with a healthy scalp.
Regularly massaging your scalp helps improve circulation, which can stimulate hair
growth and reduce hair thinning. Plus, it’s a relaxing, spa-like experience! ✨

How to Do It:
● After you apply shampoo, use a scalp massager to gently massage your
scalp. You can also use your fingertips in circular motions for about 3–5
minutes.
● The added circulation boosts the oxygen supply to hair follicles, encouraging
growth and improving the health of your scalp.
● It also helps to lift product build-up, ensuring a cleaner, healthier scalp.

✨Pro Tip: Using the Biolage scalp sync range is the perfect combination to create a
refreshed and clean scalp.
 

Deep Treatment:

Why It's Important
Deep conditioning treatments restore moisture and repair damage that regular
conditioners can’t reach. This is crucial if your hair has been exposed to heat styling,
colour treatments, or environmental stress.

How to Do It:
● Apply the Treatment: After shampooing and towel-drying your hair, apply your
chosen deep treatment. We recommend Hydrasource Deep Treatment,
Biolage Scalp Purifying Treatment, or Redken All Soft Treatment.
● Leave it In: These treatments are packed with nourishing ingredients that
penetrate deep into your hair shaft. For best results, leave it in for 15–20
minutes. You can wrap your hair in a warm towel or use a shower cap to trap
heat, which helps the treatment absorb better.
● Rinse Thoroughly: Be sure to rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water
to lock in the moisture and prevent any residue from building up.

✨ Pro Tip: If you have colour-treated hair, look for treatments specifically designed for
colour protection, like the Redken Color Extend line.

 

4. Serums and Heat Protection,

Why It's Important

Heat styling tools like blow dryers, straighteners, and curling irons can cause long-
term damage to your hair. Applying a serums or creams with heat protection helps
shield your hair from direct heat damage and prevents dryness, split ends, and frizz, and longer lasting results.

How to Do It:
● Heat Protection Before Drying: If you're blow-drying your hair, always apply a
thermal protection serum, like Redken Thermal Protection Spray. It’s
designed to form a protective barrier on each strand, allowing you to style
without the risk of excessive heat damage.
● For Moisture and Smoothness: A serum or leave-in cream helps lock in
moisture and keeps hair smooth. It’s a good idea to use a product that offers
both heat protection and smoothing properties. Try Redken Acidic Gloss Leave In or the Matrix Mega Sleek Iron Smoother are perfect options, available on our website 

✨Pro Tip: Blow-drying hair can leave it vulnerable to moisture loss, so always make
sure your hair is completely dry before bed, as sleeping with damp hair can cause
scalp irritation and breakage.

5. Air Drying or Blow Drying
Why It's Important:
Whether you blow-dry or let your hair air dry, protecting your hair from the
elements—such as heat or humidity—will help keep it frizz-free and hydrated.

How to Do It:
● Blow Drying: If you choose to blow-dry, ensure you're using a heat protectant
as mentioned earlier. Blow-drying hair can cause frizz if not done properly, make sure your nozzle is on your blowdryer and use a round brush, flat brush or a blow-dry brush to smooth out your strands as you dry.
● Air Drying: If you prefer air drying, it’s still essential to protect your hair with a
leave-in serum or treatment. Try products like the Redken Play Safe Leave-In
Treatment or the Redken Frizz Dismiss Deflate Serum. These help fight
frizz, smooth out flyaways, and lock in moisture while you let your hair dry
naturally.

6. Protection While You Sleep:

Why It's Important:
Sleeping on cotton pillowcases can cause friction, leading to frizz, breakage, and
split ends. Using silk or satin pillowcases and protective hairstyles reduces this
friction and helps maintain your hair’s moisture.

How to Do It:
● Silk or Satin Pillowcase: These materials are much gentler on your hair than
cotton, preventing tangles, frizz, and damage. The smooth texture reduces
hair breakage and helps keep your hair looking fresh in the morning.
● Protective Hairstyles: If you're prone to tangling or have longer hair, try a
loose plait (braid) to keep your hair from getting knotted while you sleep. This
minimizes friction while keeping your hair intact overnight.

✨Pro Tip: A silk bonnet or hair wrap is another great option if you want extra
protection. It also helps maintain any curl definition if you’re sporting a curly or wavy
style.
