It’s a fact that many women experiences changes in their hair during pregnancy. These often include an increase in hair density and shininess, and may also include changes in hair texture (such as more or less natural curl), slight changes in colour, and increased hair growth speed. A hair colouring appointment might be desired to keep up with the new growth, or simply as a treat. If you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant, you may be wondering – is it safe for my baby’s health to colour my hair during pregnancy?
Fine, flat hair does have some perks – you won’t lose your morning blow-drying it, and you’ll save those dollars on shampoo and conditioner.

For those with naturally poker-straight hair, especially hair that is very “willful” or very long, curling your hair and getting those curls to stay can be hard. Here are some tips for you to try.
1. Learn to wash without shampoo. I’ll shampoo every 4th or 5th wash, which is less than once per week. I’ll use straight water, or conditioner for the other washes. My hair is of “average” oiliness – you can adjust for your own.
Dry, brittle, frizzy, or unpleasantly fluffy hair? There can be different causes of this sorry state, but a common one that I see in clients (and my former self) is shampooing too often, not conditioning enough, or (usually) both.
I’ll make the bold claim that no-one needs to shampoo every day, and that this practice is very hard on your hair. Depending on how oily your hair gets, and how many products you use in it, you can probably dial your shampooing back to 1-2 times per week.

Japanese Straightening is a popular way of permanently straightening wavy, coarse or curly hair, that originated in Japan in the 1990’s. Cezanne Keratin Smoothing is a smoothing procedure where keratin is the primary ingredient. Both methods have their benefits, so if you’ve been thinking about getting your hair straightened, here is a quick breakdown of the differences.
