Here at UBU we miss you! So we went ahead and compiled some tips below to help your hair stay healthy and soft while at home, away from us. We look forward to re-opening in the coming weeks and seeing you soon!  

Tip #1: Protect Your Hair

It’s vital you are protecting your hair from the sun, wind, and rain. But additionally, exposure to excessive sun, heat, dirt, and pollution can add to our already existent hair problems. From dirt build-up, drying out of your hair and scalp and increased susceptibility to infections on the scalp it’s good practice to wear hats.

Tip #2: Regular Conditioning is key

Use a moisturizing   conditioner (like some of our Kevin Murphy in salon products) each week! Missing this step could be the reason your hair is frizzy and unhealthy.

And with that being said…

Tip #3: Condition it the Right Way

Conditioners are formulated to seal in the moisture content in the hair shaft. They are not meant for the scalp. 

The Best Way to Condition:

• Start conditioning about 2 inches away from your scalp
• Use a small amount of conditioner on the scalp 
• Over conditioning will only make the hair excessively oily

Tip #4:  Don’t Over Apply Heat On Hair

Avoid using heat on your hair. Heat strips the moisture content from your hair, making it dry and frizzy. When done too often it can also burn your hair!

Tip #5: Dry Hair Cautiously

Pat your hair dry. Do not rub vigorously with a towel. You might dry your hair faster, but the amount of hair that breaks and falls away also doubles up.

Here is a Dry Hair Remedy you can make at home:

You Will Need

·                 2 tbsp Almond Oil
·       2 tbsp Olive Oil
