Frequent Trims, Healthy Hair

If you want to have healthy hair, then it’s essential that you get regular trims. All of us deal with split ends and damaged texture, which is why we need to cut our hair often to influence its growth. To put some life back into your hair with that fresh trim, visit us at Salon Antoine so our professional stylists can pamper you. We are located at 11092 Lee Highway in Fairfax, VA, and can’t wait to see you!

How Often Should You Get a Trim?

Ah, the million-dollar question. We’re sure you’ve heard various different responses and of course there’s no one answer. We recommend that if you’re currently dealing with split ends due to extensive use of heat because we love to curl and straighten our hair daily, to get your hair trimmed every three to six weeks. If you happen to have long hair, then typically you’d want to stop and visit us every eight to twelve weeks. It’s important to keep in mind that frequent trims are not meant to make your hair grow faster, which you have probably heard before. Typically, hair grows about a half an inch per month with or without a haircut. Trims are really meant to rid your hair of any tears and thinning and to keep your ends from looking damaged. If you have visible split ends or your hair breaks easily, then it’s essential that you get a trim as soon as possible. You’re just adding more damage to your hair and reducing the option for it to grow. Additionally, if your hair becomes see-through at the ends and has lost its dimension, stop what you’re doing and make some time to get a quick trim. The bottom line is that getting regular trims will maintain the quality of your hair. What have you got to lose? Shiny, freshly-cut hair paired with some curls, will have all eyes on you as soon as you step out of the house, so get that regular trim, girl!

Endless Benefits

Where do we begin? There are so many benefits to trimming your hair. First and foremost, you’ll rid your hair of any of the damage that has caused the split ends and made your hair look flat or dry. Instead, after getting the necessary inches cut off, you’ll be rocking glistening hair that will turn heads your way, maybe twice! Not to mention, you’ll have less breakage and add volume back into your hair. When it’s newly trimmed, your hair will always look fresh, no matter how you style it. Speaking of styling, it will be much easier time straightening, curling, or putting it into any updo when it’s not tangling or frizzy thanks to your trim. Your hair will for sure look thicker and fuller after you chop a few (or many!) inches off. You’ll get to see your hair’s full potential and those around you will notice too when you strut around with the new, fresh, strong trim. Last, but definitely not least, you’ll boost the chance of your hair growing since you now have healthy strands that aren’t overshadowed by split ends, so you can finally get that length you’ve been yearning for!
