Jan. 19, 2016 What is a Malibu Treatment and why should I get one?

Today's topic is a Malibu Treatment.  What is it and why should I get one?

A Malibu Treatment is used to remove mineral deposits, chlorine, and other impurities from your hair.  This is an in salon treatment only, it cannot be performed at home.

Why do mineral deposits, chlorine, and other impurities need to be removed from my hair?
Mineral deposits, chlorine, and other impurities have a huge effect on your hair and the health of your hair.  They can cause hair challenges such as:
Challenges with manageability causing for use of more styling products to achieve desired look.
Dry texture with little shine.
Very dry feeling hair that lacks shine but appears to have some volume due to severe mineral buildup.
Frizzy
Difficulty achieving the hair color you want and difficulty keeping your color from fading.
Blonde and highlighted hair may lose vibrancy, appear muddy, lack shine, have a brassy or ash/green tones.
Constant breakage problems, hair lacks brightness.
Difficulty keeping a perm, hair feels dry and perm falls out.
Symptoms associated with dandruff, eczema, psoriasis and rosacea can flare up seasonally.
Extreme dry scalp/skin
Mineral build up can block follicles which then blocks hair growth.
Hair loss

Where do these minerals come from and how do they get in my hair?
The minerals, chlorine, and other impurities come from the water you shampoo your hair in and bathe in and the environment around you.

Everyone should receive a Malibu Treatment on a monthly basis.  It is not an expensive service and it will save you so many hair woes.  Your Malibu Treatment should be followed up with proper home care with the appropriate shampoo and treatment for you.  To help determine the best home care protocol for you, I recommend bringing in a fresh sample of your water that you shampoo with or bathe in.  Then the water can be tested to find out how high the mineral and chlorine content is of your water.  The closer you live to the water treatment facility, the more chlorine you will have in your water.  The water test is inexpensive as well, and well worth it to help save your hair.

A Malibu Treatment can be done as a service by itself or added to another service such as color or perm.

I recommend scheduling your Malibu Treatment with Sarah Reynolds Spa today!  And don't forget to bring your fresh water sample with you to be tested!

Enjoy your day!!
