Questions & Answer Time!!.....Enjoy

Q: Should I get a trim to help my hair grow?

A: Guys, even healthy hair needs to be kept trimmed for healthy maintenance and growth. Trimming alone is not the reason your hair grows, but if hair grows ¼ to ½ inch per month, trimming is important to help keep growth noticeable, meaning the hair has a chance to grow and the split ends will be trimmed on time before they damage the growth while the hair is truly growing.

By the way, make sure your stylist knows your hair’s growth pattern, so when you decide to get a cut or trim, they can recommend what’s best for your personal growth pattern. This is very important so you can see your hair growing. –“Hair Doc”




Q: Can conditioning truly help my hair grow?

A: Conditioners are to be used to moisturize, strengthen, reconstitute/restore and help promote body and shine. With the right conditioning treatment at each visit with your stylist, you should see and feel healthier, shinier hair with more body. If you go to the salon with damaged hair and want it restored to a healthy state,

you should see noticeable results (hair mending) within 3 visits. If not, consider a new hair care provider who can ensure the results you seek. –“Hair Doc”

Diversity in our salon

Today there is a growing need for salons to be able to service all textures of hair. Wouldn't you rather go to a salon that specializes in all textures of hair or would you like to continue to go to different salons for every member of your family? This is a concern that needs to be changed, largely because of the growing bi-racial relationships. Others may start making the change because the money is greener and they NEED to feed their families and pay their bills! We know that people today seek convenience, but more importantly, they really want service. Knowledge is the key to tapping into this clientele and giving them the best hair cut, the best color, and also the best texture! Tap in and make the change. Don't just go for the green without the knowledge and the skills that you have copied from someone else, who copied from someone else, etc.  -"Hair Doc"

It's Not a Black Thing, It's a Hair Thing

To professonal hair stylists and students: Have you consciously chosen to work ( currently working) in an all-white, all-black, all-asian etc. salon, or a salon whose environment reflects solely your particular ethnicity, race and/or culture? Are all your clients a reflection of your own ethnicity/race? Are you afraid to engage and cultivate a multicultural clientele? I'd love to hear your story and your reasoning if you're willing to share. Being a product of our environment or upbringing does not have to pigeon-hole and limit our capacity to broaden our perspectives. People truly are people, just as "hair is hair," no matter whose head it rests on. What you've experienced can be a timely and valuable lesson for someone else. -"Hair Doc"

Product Knowledge

Professional hair care products, the very ones your hair stylist uses on your hair in the salon, aren’t just for the hair care professional’s use. The pride we take in educating and sharing our knowledge with our clients is not limited to the techniques we use during your appointment. The products we use are part of that information sharing, and we gladly teach our clients how to apply the products to their hair for at-home care. Did you know these professional products are available for purchase? When you get compliments on your hair’s texture, cut, body, sheen or finish, why not share the product information with family and friends? Those who are intrigued by your hair and would like to experience the types of products and services we provide can then get the benefits that you currently enjoy. And they’ll thank you for the generosity. And so will we!
