Don’t Let An Oily Scalp Weigh You Down | Scalp Health

Phytopolleine-1

Wondering What To Do When Your Scalp Is Too Oily? 

Is your hair feeling a little too slick? It happens. Listen, striking a balance on the scalp is serious business. And while many people just happen to have naturally oily hair, sometimes the products and practices of their hair care routine don’t help the situation.

We have three simple tips to temper oily hair woes:

  • Start using weekly hair masks designed for oily hair. Masks are amazing little nourishment enforcers that give your scalp and hair an extra little boost of love. Just make sure you choose one designed specifically for oily hair. PHYTODETOX Purifying Mask is the perfect pre-shampoo treat for oily hair. It gives the scalp an intense clean and gives your hair body and volume. It’s like a little botanical scalp reset with a refreshing Eucalyptus scent. The other members of the PHYTODETOX range are also worth exploring if you have oily hair. The Clarifying Shampoo and Rehab Mist are great purifiers to always have on hand for your hair care needs.
  • Say no to dry shampoo. We know dry shampoo is all the rage, but it can actually increase oil and residue on your scalp and hair. Every time you spritz to refresh your hair you are actually clogging your scalp and encouraging oil to build up and weigh your hair down. Instead get a really good balancing shampoo, like PHYTOPANAMA. It’s safe to use daily and contains a patented ingredient, Progenium, that saves oily scalps without stripping it of what it needs.
  • Use products that can effectively rebalance your scalp since that’s where healthy hair begins. When the pH levels of your scalp are balanced is when your hair thrives the most. Our best seller to help keep the scalp in check is, PHYTOPOLLEINE. Our 100% botanical treatment is the ultimate scalp elixir. It restores the balance of your scalp by gently cleansing to remove excess sebum and dandruff. It purifies and energizes while giving your scalp everything it needs to create the ideal environment to grow healthier hair. PHYTOCEDRAT, our antiseptic shampoo, is great for oily scalps and uses lemon oil, pine bark, geranium, rosemary, and sage to purify and rebalance.

Which PHYTO Shampoo is Right for You? | Behind the scenes at PHYTO

CONTEST

Which PHYTO Shampoo is Right for You?

 

As silly as it sounds, we know it can be overwhelming to figure out which shampoo to buy. Every label touts a laundry list of different benefits. There are ones made for straight hair, curly hair, thick hair, fine hair, colored hair and everything in between. Shampoo is definitely not one size fits all since every head of hair is different. That’s why Phyto creates shampoos to address every need, but we also want to help you easily figure out what’s best for your locks.

Here's a little peek into four of our shampoos and how you will know if they are right for your hair.

WHICH PHYTO SHAMPOO IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Looking for a daily shampoo great for all hair types? Introducing PHYTOPROGENIUM. Gentle enough to use every day, the prebiotics complex helps regulate the microbiota of the scalp and preserves its balance. If you need something to moisturize dry hair, check out PHYTOJOBA. It softens stressed out locks with a deliciously smelling blend of jojoba milk and mallow flower Want a little more volume? PHYTOVOLUME will do the trick with its lightweight lather and slightly textured gentle cleansing formula. It’s the bamboo extract that really gets the volume going and leaves you with soft, bouncy hair.    Maybe your locks need a little purifying. This happens a lot if you have oily hair and our PHYTOCEDRAT uses lemon essential oil to regulate sebum secretion and sanitize your scalp. Your hair will feel so fresh and so clean.Rest assured that regardless of your hair type we have something that will help you reach and maintain your hair goals. This is just a small sampling of what PHYTO does. We are hair and scalp enthusiasts and want to help you find the products that work best for you!

What does it mean to thrive right now? Here’s how people are doing it. | Elizabeth Wellington

What does it mean to thrive right now Heres how people are doing it. Elizabeth Wellington

Read Full Article

Recently I ran into a girlfriend who I hadn’t seen in more than a year. I asked her how she was. Her answer: “Girl, I am thriving.”

She looked fantastic. Yet as we fist-bumped, I wondered: What did she really mean?

 

 

 

DREA RICHARD, 48, OWNER OF ANDRE RICHARD SALON
Thriving means: “Doing activism in a way that I didn’t see coming. [Since the pandemic,] I’ve been working with a local branch of the Equality Federation. We are actively trying to get the Equality Act — that would protect LGBTQ people from discrimination — a federal law. Through the whole pandemic, I was in survival mode. I realized that even if my life wasn’t perfect, I needed to do more.”
How I get there: “Getting back to the basics. Going to bed early so I get the right amount of sleep. That’s the only way I have the energy to be productive.”

We love Olaplex!

Olaplex in Philadelphia

We love Olaplex at Andre Richard Salon. Why do we love it? Simply put, it works! Olaplex saves the hair from the damage that can happen from applying chemicals to the hair. Especially when blonding with bleach. No8_100ml_wLid_2000x2000_300dpi_Front_cmyk_d9605897-14f4-4009-b7e8-6dd329eb5ed1_1440x.jpg

 

 

What does Olaplex do?

Our hair contains millions of disulfide bonds.

These bonds give the hair its structure, strength and stability. When disulfide bonds are broken, it results in damage. 

OLAPLEX restores damaged and compromised hair by repairing from the inside out with our patented single ingredient, Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate.

Once all the bonds are intact and in alignment, you have healthy, beautiful, shiny, touchable hair.

At André Richard Salon we value the integrity of your hair. Olapex offers much more than meets the eye and we want to show you! Add to blonding services and also as a stand alone treatment for basic management or go deep and actually repair that hair strand!
