4 EFFECTIVE THINGS YOU CAN DO TO REJUVENATE YOUR SKIN

One of the first things that people do in stressful or upsetting times is cut their hair. Cutting your hair off or changing the colour is a way of taking control of things and making a change. And while there is always the opportunity to do this yourself at home, heading to a hair salon can often be even better when it comes to therapy. 

Small talk

If there is one thing that hairstylists are fantastic at, it is small talk. Not only are they happy to talk about the weather, they are incredible to talk to in general. Once you are relaxed and they are massaging your scalp, it is not uncommon for what is really upsetting you to come to the forefront of the conversation. Although it is not their job, hairstylists are incredible listeners. 

Pampering 

Life is busy, so when you get the chance to go to a hair salon for a few hours to have your head massaged, lots of luxurious shampoos and style creams used, and either some length taken off or length added via hair extensions like those from The London Hair Lab, it is a pampering session. We hold a lot of tension in our heads, neck and face. All of the massages and hair washing can help that fall away – giving you that post-haircut glow. 

Avoids Accidents 

For those who have tried to cut their fringe at home, only to find that it gets shorter and shorter, then wonky, and then cried – a hairstylist is a solution to this problem. Rather than have to go through the upset of messing your hair up after other things in your life have already upset you – let a professional handle it for you. 

Confidence 

The confidence that comes with getting your hair in a new style is almost unrivalled. Your hair is something that everyone sees every day, and when you get it cut, coloured or styled (sometimes all of them), it welcomes compliments. 

Not only will you get a massive boost of feeling great, but people are likely to tell you it looks great – all day long! A huge confidence boost at a time when you might be feeling a little low. 

The Big Chop

There is research to show that a big chop can be life-changing, and your hair stylist will be able to style it, layer it, and make sure it suits your face shape. The big chop gets rid of all of the unhealthy over styled hair with bleach, split ends, and more. 

But you might be surprised at how light you feel after it – and it isn’t just physically lighter. People feel a whole world of difference when they have the big chop – almost like a new start. 

No demands 

The moment you step into the salon – there is nothing really required from you. Sure, you need to make a decision about how your hair should be cut and the colour you might want – but you give the control to the professionals. 

You are free to sit in peace and have nothing demanded from you – you don’t even need to talk if you don’t want to – you can doom scroll on social media to your heart’s content.
