Free Product Contest!

Hey Everyone!! 
So, lately, I have been thinking a lot about my clients. 
Oh, how I would love for all of them to have all the products that I use on their hair in the salon in their own hands to use everyday AT HOME!  Thinking of this I decided that I would GIVE a lucky someone MY very favorite product!!!! UNITE's 7 SECONDS!
(a $25.00 value)
This stuff is MAGIC! OK, not really, but it is my favorite leave-in conditioner for any hair type! It works fast because it is loaded with proteins that penetrate deep into your hair! It doesn't weigh your hair down! And it smells delicious! I rave about it to all of my clients and use it on my own hair every time my hair is wet. I took this to Lake Powell with me last summer and about used the entire bottle between 10 of us girls. It was a life saver from the lake water.
A lot of people's hair begins to feel dry and brittle in the summer because we live in a desert and the air is so dry. This is the perfect product to start protecting your hair now from the summer heat and the suns' UV rays!
I could talk to you about it until I am blue in the face I love it SO much. 

I want to give it to YOU! 
I want you to have SOFT, HEALTHY and BEAUTIFUL hair.

  1. Like my Facebook page. (www.facebook.com/AlexCrabtreeHairStylist)

How often should I get my hair cut?



This is a question I hear a lot!
Knowing how often you should get a haircut has a lot to do with you hair goals and the chemical processes you put your hair through on a regular basis.
It's important to know that, on average, hair grows about a 1/2 an inch a month.

Short Hair:
If you are keeping-up on a short hairstyle you will probably need to reshape your style every 4 to 8 weeks. Short hair styles appear to grow out quickly because most short hair styles have blunt lines.

Medium Length Hair:
If you like the length of your hair, I would suggest a haircut every 6 to 8 weeks to keep your hair looking healthy.  If you are growing your hair out, opt for a trim every 8 to 12 weeks.

Long Hair:
If your hair is long and you want to keep it long, it is very important to get regular haircuts to keep your long hair looking healthy!  Long hair is very OLD. Like anything that ages, the older your hair gets, the more fragile it is.  Long hair is more susceptible to having split ends and breakage, ESPECIALLY if you color and/or highlight your hair. Regular trims will help keep your hair healthy and strong. I would suggest a trim about every 6 to 12 weeks, or no longer than 4 months between haircuts to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy.

Colored or Chemically Treated Hair:
If you color your hair (any color, lighter or darker) or perm your hair regularly (about every 6-12 weeks) you may needs trims more frequently. The reason? Because chemical processes can contribute to split ends, breakage, and dryness.  More frequent hair cuts may help prevent these things by removing the dry ends.

Growing Your Hair??:
Regular (depending on the length of your hair) haircuts will minimize breakage and maximize your hairs' growth potential!
