A great salon visit shouldn't last just one day or even a whole week. In fact, with the right care and products, you can dramatically extend how long your hair looks and feels its best. Here's exactly how our best hairdressers in Sydney recommend achieving it.
Protect Your Blowdry
The number one thing that shortens a blowdry's life is moisture- whether from humidity, sweat, or washing too soon. Try to hold off washing for at least 48 hours after your appointment. When you do wash, Kevin Murphy Smooth.Again Wash maintains smoothness and manageability between visits. A silk pillowcase overnight makes a surprisingly significant difference too!
Preserve Your HAIR Colour
A lot of colour fade between appointments is largely preventable. Wash in cool water, avoid daily shampooing, and always use a colour-safe formula. Oribe Bright Blonde Shampoo keeps blonde tones fresh and brass-free, while Kevin Murphy Hydrate-Me Wash protects colour-treated hair from dryness and fading. Both make a noticeable difference to how long your colour holds its vibrancy.
Manage Frizz and Flyaways
Humidity and friction are the two biggest enemies of smooth, healthy hair between appointments. Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil applied to dry hair tames flyaways instantly and adds the kind of shine that makes hair look freshly styled days later.
Don't Skip the Weekly HAIR Treatment
The single biggest difference between healthy hair that looks great at week one and week four is hydration. A weekly mask keeps the hair fibre nourished, smooth, and resilient. Kevin Murphy Restore Treatment is our go-to, particularly for colour-treated or heat-styled hair that needs consistent repair between salon visits.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I wash my hair between salon appointments with the best hairdressers Sydney? Two to three times a week is the sweet spot for most hair types. Washing daily strips natural oils and accelerates colour fade. Dry shampoo applied at the roots on off-days adds volume and absorbs oil without compromising your style.
