Frequently Asked Questions about your Hair

Q: What kind of damage does the sun do to my hair?

A: You know how your skin can burn in the sun?  Well its no different for your hair.  Without the proper sunscreens and moisturisers your hair can burn just as easy as your skin.  We recommend that you use a hair protection system that contains an SPF for your color treated hair.  Try  COLOR PROTECT by Paul Mitchell. Its natural Sunflower Extract protects your hair from the damaging effects of the sun on your hair and helps to protect your hair color from fading.

Q: How can I reverse the effects chlorine does to my hair.

A: Face it, Texas summers are hot and nothing is better than a dip in the pool.  However no one wants the green hair and dryness associated with chlorine. Taking the proper steps can greatly reduce the problems that chlorine can cause. Step 1: Pre-wet your hair with non chlorinated water prior to entering the pool. Step 2: For even more protection apply a healthy amount of PAUL MITCHELL SUPER CHARGED CONDITIONER to your hair and leave it on for your fun in the sun. You will get a conditioning treatment at the same time. Step 3: Shampoo with PAUL MITCHELL SHAMPOO THREE , It is specially formulated to remove chlorine and other impurities tfrom your hair.

Q: Why is my hair so dry and it is so humid outside?

A: The main culprit is the very thing that keeps you comfortable, your Central Heat or Air Conditioning system. These systems remove a great amount of moisture from the air and your hair and skin suffer the consequences.  PAUL MITCHELL MOISTURE has what you need.  Shampoos, conditioners, and other products that will infuse the moisture you need to have healthy hair and skin in the most brutally dry environments.

Q: My hair is fine and/or thinning.  What will help?

A:  Blame stress or blame your genes, its still thin and fine.  Thicken it up with PAUL MITCHELL THICKEN UP and the EXTRA BODY line or TEA TREE LEMON SAGE THICKENING SHAMPOO and CONDITIONER.   Infuse your hair with the thickening agent panthenol.  These products penetrate deep into the hair shaft and attaches to the surface to add volume, increase body and help repair damage on the hair cuticle. 

Q: How can I control my course frizzy hair?

A: Smooth is in.  To get your hair smooth and manageable give PAUL MITCHELL SUPER SKINNY a try.  Shampoos, conditioners and syling products that tame that wild hair.  These products penetrate deep into the hair to displace water and constrict the hair to leave hair soft and manageable.

Q:  Why does my hair feel so fried after I get my highlights retouched?

A: If you are chemically addicted to hair color like most people in this nation,  there is a good chance that your hair is over processed.  We recommend that you come into the salon for a reconstructive treatment that involves a relaxing conditioning head massage and steam treatment for your hair.  Afterwards we recommend SUPER STRONG by Paul Mitchell.  Strengthen, rebuild, and restore your hair by penetrating deep into the cortex to rebuild the internal structure of damaged hair.

Q:  Is it ok to use my flat iron/curling iron every day?

A: If it makes you have beautiful hair, what's the problem?  But are you using a buffer between your hair and the iron?  If you aren't, prolonged use of these syling tools can take their toll on your hair creating dryness and breakage.  We recommend  SUPER SKINNY SERUM by PAUL MITCHELL that you can apply prior to ironing your hair to create a protective barrier between your hair and the iron to create beautiful looks without the potential damage.

Q: Why can I do to get rid of my flaking scalp?

A: Many things can cause flaking scalp.  Using cheap hair care products  can cause a build up that will eventually flake off looking like dry scalp.  A simple switch to professianal products like PAUL MITCHELL can solve this problem immediately.  If your problem is dry irritated scalp, give PAUL MITCHELL TEA TREE a try.  These products contain Austrailian tea tree oil that is a completely natural antiseptic, disinfectant, and germicide well known for its healing properties.  A clean healthy scalp is the first step toward the ridding of flakes.
