| Trouble with split ends? |
 |
Split ends, (or trichoptlosis), are the bane of every self-respecting woman’s life! They happen when the protective cuticle has been stripped away from the ends of hair fibers. Split ends are more likely to develop in dry or brittle hair, and typical causes of damage include excessive dying or vigorous brushing.
The best way to deal with split ends is to avoid them in the first place by having your hair maintained every 4-8 weeks, even if you are trying to grow it out. Professional stylist's scissors are finely honed, leaving the ends less susceptible to damage.
Using hi-quality styling products and tools are always very important. New advances in technology have increased their effectiveness, leaving you with beautiful, shiny, healthy hair.

| Hints and Tips on Color |
|
Q: What's the best way to change from blonde to brown?
A: Big changes in hair colour can make big changes in the way you look and feel, so the best approach is a gradual one. If you want to move from honey blonde to chocolate brown for example, we recommend you darken your colour by two shades every two weeks until you get your dream result. |
| |
Q: How can I add a little sparkle to natural looking hair?
A: A shimmering red tone can really liven up your natural deep shade or consider scattering fine highlights through lighter hair to add a little depth and interest. |
| |
Q: Which colours best suit my fair complexion?
A: Your light, pale skin looks fantastic with cooler hair colours that compliment your natural pink, grey or blue skin tones. If you have a tendency to blush, ash tones effectively neutralise any pinkness in the skin. The trick is to avoid gold, yellow, red and bronze tones, which may to make you look sallow and drawn. Ash blondes, dark cherry and mahogany shades work in perfect combination with fair skin. |
| |
Q: Which colours best suit my dark complexion?
A: Warm shades of hair colour look fabulous on women with darker tanned skin tones. You should avoid blue, violet, white, and jet-black hair colours that drain you of your natural colour. |
| |
Q: My hair is practically all grey, are there colours I can use?
A: Select one of Schwarzkopf's colour products that have been specially formulated to cover 100% of grey hair. There is an incredible range of choice, depending on whether you want to blend your grey or go for a totally new shade. |
| |
Q: Is there a way to blend in my grey root re-growth?
A: For grey and greying hair we recommend our Root Retoucher or the Diadem Root-Set but if you want to achieve natural looking colour with no roots then avoid an all over tint. Choosing a well selected variety of tone-on-tone highlights will make re-growth much less obvious. |

| Scalp Treatment and Hair Loss |
|
We often treat our facial skin with products to prevent the effects of aging. In much the same way, the scalp must be treated properly to maintain a healthy scalp environment and keep hair healthy-looking and strong. And like facial skin, the scalp is susceptible to everything we come into contact with every day — things of which most of us may not be aware. Toxins, air pollutants, chlorine, sunlight, minerals and water pollution can affect the scalp skin and contribute to the problem of thinning hair. For example, excessive exposure to sunlight allows harmful UV rays to penetrate the skin including our scalp. This causes skin cells to age, which thickens the scalp skin contributing to follicle instability.
Most shampoos, conditioners and styling products are formulated to clean, condition and support styling of the hair fiber/strand. Unfortunately, many of these products have damaging alcohols and PVP film formers that coat the hair and create buildup on the scalp. In some cases, buildup can clog the follicle and may further aggravate the overall problems associated with thin-looking hair. |
