Pre Blow Wave Instructions
Pre-Blow Wave Hair Care
Proper hair care before the blow wave is crucial for achieving flawless results. Prepping your hair creates a blank canvas for a beautiful blow wave. The following steps will help you achieve smooth strands for a perfect blow wave that lasts.
- Hair washing: Start by cleansing your hair with a high-quality shampoo for your hair type. Use a gentle, sulphate-free formula to avoid stripping away natural oils. Look for argan, jojoba, or coconut oil, which hydrates the hair. To moisturise and detangle your locks, follow up with a nourishing conditioner containing shea butter, aloe vera, or glycerin. Rinse thoroughly to ensure no residue remains; leftover product can weigh down the hair and lead to dullness. It is important that you ensure all product is out of your hair prior to starting your appointment.
- Towel drying: To dry your hair, gently squeeze out excess water using a soft, microfiber towel. Rubbing vigorously can cause friction, leading to breakage and frizz. Instead, blot or pat your hair gently to minimise damage.
- Detangling: Before the stylists arrives, detangle your hair to prevent knots and matting from ruining your style. Using a detangling brush or a wide-toothed comb, start from the ends and work up to the roots. This minimises hair breakage and reduces stress on your strands.
If you have chosen a dry style it is important that you have dried your hair completely. The time that is allocated for your appointment cannot be exceeded due to other bookings.
