Why Your Hair Needs A Detox, And How To Do It
It's no secret that a healthy scalp leads to happy hair, and whether you’re dealing with dull colour, unmanageable hair, excess frizz or a loss of shine and volume, these hair issues can be solved with a simple solution — a hair detox. This healthy hair habit can be done at home, any day of the week to benefit your entire hair routine.
WHAT IS A HAIR DETOX?
When hair is exposed to hard water, environmental impact or excess product, over time, you can start to accumulate build-up on your scalp and strands. This build-up is exactly what causes hair to lose its lustre. A hair detox is the process of utilising targeted products to clarify the scalp and strands to restore balance and provide a thoroughly cleansed foundation.
WHAT DOES A HAIR DETOX DO?
Utilising detox products thoroughly cleanses the scalp and strands to remove build-up so that any product that follows can penetrate and work more efficiently. So, instead of parting with your beloved dry shampoo, simply slough away dead skin cells with the help of Kevin Murphy's SCALP.SPA SCRUB or detox your hair with MAXI.WASH to remove product and environmental buildup for a fresh start.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A HAIR DETOX?
A hair detox removes the bad so the good can work its magic. With specific products, it clears away excess oil, products, dirt, and debris and can do everything from prep hair for colour to improve the function of your scalp, give your blow dry more lift or your natural texture more definition. Simply put, it can help heal what ails your scalp and strands most.
HOW TO DETOX YOUR HAIR AT HOME
It can be the addition of a single shampoo or an entire range of products. A detoxing routine is as unique as your hair type!
For best results, start with a scalp treatment like MAXI.WASH or SCALP.SPA SCRUB + WASH to create a refreshed foundation. Then, follow with products based on your individual needs.
IF YOU HAVE CONCERNS WITH YOUR SCALP:
When it comes to improving hair, the scalp is often overlooked. However, build-up at the scalp can impact everything from hair growth to the longevity of your style. To jumpstart your detox, start with the SCALP regimen. Whether the scalp is dry and irritated or overly oily, SCALP.SPA SCRUB, TREATMENT, SERUM and WASH can be utilised to improve scalp function, exfoliate, soothe and balance problems areas.
A WEEKLY TREAT FOR THE SCALP AND STRANDS
If you feel as though your hair never feels “clean” no matter how much you wash, try refreshing your scalp and strands with MAXI.WASH. This shampoo detoxes the hair so you can start with a clean slate. It is the ideal pre-wash or pre-colour treatment and will improve the benefits of any products that follow.
WHEN YOU NEED A HELPING HAND
Sometimes detoxing your hair isn’t all about getting rid of build-up, but instead, adding ingredients into your hair routine to give hair a helping hand. STIMULATE-ME.WASH + STIMULATE-ME.RINSE contains an invigorating blend of Bergamot and Black Pepper to soothe and Amino Acids and Shea Butter to nourish and strengthen thin, brittle or weak hair.
This blend works to stimulate both the hair and scalp leading to fuller and thicker-looking results. For best results, follow this regimen with THICK.AGAIN — a leave-in treatment that increases microcirculation to the scalp and protects against heat damage to leave hair looking and feeling thicker over time with more strength and less breakage.
