Benefits Of The “Deep Conditioning” Service

Split Ends Salon of Jacksonville Beach uses only the BEST Quality Products on our clients. Moroccan Oil is top of line, and we proudly use and retail to our clients.

How many times have you thought about deep conditioning your hair? Chances are you’ve been offered the chance to undergo a deep conditioning treatment on multiple occasions and passed it up, until now. There are many benefits of deep conditioning treatments, all of which may cause you to call up your salon and make an appointment to discuss deep conditioning.

Benefit number one: deep conditioning penetrates the hair shaft which restores the natural shine of your hair. Over time your hair gets build up from the weather, products you use, etc. Using a deep conditioner smoothes the shaft of your hair and allows you to gain back your natural shine!

Benefit number two: deep conditioning moisturizes the scalp. A dry scalp, itching, scratching, and flakes…all things you don’t want! Using a deep conditioner keeps you from having to deal with all of those things.

Benefit number three: a deep conditioning treatment can restore weakened and damaged hair and give it back strength, which can prevent breakage and split ends. Who wants split ends? No one!

Benefit numbrer fou: a deep conditioning treatment may be a major benefit to colored and chemically treated hair. If you often color your hair, or chemically treat it, it can become dull and lifeless. The treatment gives the color in your hair new life and can make it last longer. It can repair damage and leave your hair looking better than ever!

Doing a deep conditioning treatment once a month will keep your hair healthy and looking beautiful 🙂

Beachy Wedding Hair Styles

I just finished with the gorgeous Bride Miss Tiffany, and her Bridal Party! What a sweet group of girls.

It is music to my ears when I hear my Brides/Bridesmaids say “I Trust You” do what you think looks best.

Here Is Why:

1. 9 times out of 10, the picture of the hairstyle she has picked out is not similar at all to her own hair.

2. The photos usually handed to me only show what she wants the back of her hair to look like. Who is looking at the back of your head? Why are you spending so much time dwelling on the back of your head? We need to make sure you look great from the front, where your smiling faces are going to be in your family albums forever and ever.

3. Length. When I am handed a photo of this big beautiful full updo, from a Bride who has shoulder length, thin hair…. That’s when I have to wave my comb in front of her and say “This here is a comb. Not a Magic Wand”

4. Texture. When looking for hairstyles, keep in mind the texture has a lot to do with the outcome as well if you are wanting your hairstylist to duplicate from a photo. If you have frizzy, curly, long hair…. don’t show your stylist a photo of a style that is short, straight and sleek. If your hair is thin and straight as a board… don’t pick out a style that obviously requires a lot of hair to achieve the look.

5. Color. Hair with Highlights, looks completely different in an updo than hair with no highlights. That color dimension makes a huge difference.

My styles above in this photo, each one of the girls sat down in my chair and let me work my magic. No photos to show me. I asked them, up or down and where they part their bangs. From there I created them each their own unique style that worked with their hair and facial features.

So I would say give your Stylist some room to be creative, she may come up with something amazing that you never knew your hair would do 🙂

Answers to Brides common Questions…

Is it common to remove the veil after the ceremony? I think I want to keep it on for the reception.

Don’t rush to remove your veil. A veil is that one element that transforms you from a woman in a white dress into a Bride. There is no written rule that the veil has to come off, in fact most Brides prefer the photographs of them wearing the veil when choosing pictures for print.

Is it true I dont wash my hair before the wedding?

Dirty hair is the secret to a long-wearing updo. This gives hair some grip so your style will stay in place all night!

I had my makeup done before but it seemes like a lot of makeup, I dont wear alot of makeup on a day to day basis.

Do a trial run for your Makeup, even if you don’t hire a pro. Makeup for flash photography is different than daily makeup application. It may look too dark at first glance, but after wearing it for a while, and having a friend take some photos with a flash you can see how your best features stand out in a photograph.

I cant decide if I want my hair to be in an elaborate Updo, or more natural.

Don’t stray too far from the real you. Experiment with different hairstyles, but then choose the one you are most comfortable with, the one that is most you. You don’t want to look back at photos of your special day and wonder “who is that?”

What about touching up my lip color after the Ceremony, before pictures with me and my husband or after eating?

Make sure your touch-up kit has all the right colors. I like for my Brides to bring their favorite Lip Liner and Color. You don’t want to realize later on during your wedding that you don’t have the right color for touch ups.

I have never had my eyebrows waxed, do you suggest this before my wedding?

Get your brows groomed by a professional. It makes such a difference in photos to have perfect brows!

Get Your Hair “Wedding Ready”

Wedding season is in full swing and deciding on the perfect hair ‘do is as important now as it was when you first got engaged.  Figuring out what to do with you hair can be harder than it seems.  below is a list to make deciding on, and achieving, your dream look one of the less stressful things that needs to be done for the big day.

• Decide on your dress before you pick your hairstyle:While you might think you have the perfect style picked out for your hair, it might not match the dress that you end up choosing.  Having a basic idea of what you want is always a good idea, but do not set your mind to a specific ‘do until you have purchased.

• Find pictures of something similar:Some people are not good with describing their hairstyle they had in mind. Find pictures of things you like so you can be sure the stylist knows what you envision.
• Don’t assume the person who cuts your hair is the best choice:Just because they can cut your hair well does not mean they are great at up ‘dos. If you want an up ‘do or something you think your stylist might not have ever done before, do some research and find out who has a great reputation when it comes to wedding hairstyles.
• Test and products at least two weeks in advance:If you are using new products before your wedding, make sure you give yourself plenty of time to test them out.  If you give yourself two weeks you’ll have a good idea of how your hair will respond to these products and you’ll also know if you need to change things up before the wedding.
• Do not wash your hair the day of:We have all been told that day-old hair works better than clean. While you might be tempted to wash your hair because having perfectly clean hair makes you feel better, don’t! Stylists say day-old hair works better for a reason! Your hair’s natural oils will help the stylists shape the hair however you want it.
• If you are using accessories, have extras:So many people bring the accessories that they need for their hair but they don’t think to bring extras. Your accessories could break or simply get lost in the travel to your stylist.  With that said, make sure you don’t pick a hair accessory that can’t be duplicated.
• Have a backup plan:The weather can change in instant. Just like you need a backup plan for your venue, you also need a backup plan for your hair.
• Do a run through:You might have an idea of what your hair is going to look like but you cannot be sure until you have done it. This is the most import day of your life and you need to know that your hair is going to be exactly like you imagined!
• Changing hairstyles between the ceremony and reception:This might seem like a pain but more and more brides are doing this so they can be more relaxed during the reception. If you decide that going from a lose up ‘do to a flirty down ‘do is your style, during your run through have the stylists teach one of your bridesmaids how to assist you. You’ll be confident in the outcome and won’t have to pay extra to have the stylist stick around.

• Don’t forget the veil: Numerous wedding photos have great ideas but they don’t always show the veil.  When looking at pictures, keep in mind that you will have a veil to add to the hairstyle. Some might cover up the top of certain styles so be on the lookout for the perfect style that will match well with your perfect veil.
