how to boost volume hair

Do you struggle with fine, lifeless hair? We have some useful tips and tricks to help!

Massage the scalp: Massaging the scalp is a great way to improve circulation. Try doing this right before you shampoo the hair to increase blood flow.
Use the right shampoo – We preach this one all the time, but using the right shampoo is crucial. If you have dry hair, use a moisturizing shampoo. If you have damaged hair, use a repairing shampoo. It’s simple, but so important.
Switch up your parting – Flattening your hair the same way for a long period of time may be the root of your problem (no pun intended). Try tossing it to the side occasionally!
Blow-dry your hair upside down – To give the roots a quick lift, try turning your head upside down when blow-drying. When the hair is mostly dry, you can return to your normal way of blow-drying.
Add a volumizing spray, powder or mousse to your heat-styling routine for an extra boost.

Flat, lifeless hair is a concern for a lot of people, but it could just be a matter of finding the right products and methods! Let us know your go-to tricks!

Hair Concern: Dandruff

25/11/2020

Dandruff is a common problem amongst both women and men, and it is something we often get asked for advice on. Here’s everything you should know about dandruff, as well as our top products!

What is dandruff?
Dandruff occurs when the cells on the scalp renew themselves too often. The older cells get pushed to the surface and show themselves as the small, white flakes that we know as dandruff.

How can I fix it?
The first important step is to find the correct shampoo. We have so many recommendations, but our current favourites are the Kapilixine Clean Sense shampoo and the Redken Scalp Relief shampoo – both contain exfoliating ingredients such as Salicylic Acid as well as soothing properties like Eucalyptus.
Along with using the correct shampoo, we recommend brushing your hair more often to avoid build-up. Dandruff occurs more commonly in teens/young adults, but it can also be brought on by stress and hormones. Being aware of the causes and treatments for dandruff could help in finding the right treatment.

Kapilixine is currently on sale for Black Friday, so it might be a good time to give it a try. If you do, as always, let us know what you think!

Hair Concern: Greasy Hair

18/11/2020

Greasy Hair

Greasy Hair

We get asked a lot of hair-related questions here at O’Reilly’s and one of the most common problems people have is greasy hair. Greasy hair can be frustrating to deal with, but it can be resolved with the right products!

What causes greasy hair?
Greasy hair happens when the sebaceous glands overproduce sebum. Sebum is needed to keep the hair healthy and smooth, but too much of it can be a nuisance. Greasy hair can be caused by hormones, improper hair care, unhealthy eating habits, medications or it may simply run in the family.

So, how can I fix it?
Firstly, you should investigate the cause. If it’s something simple like diet, you can always make small adjustments. You can also help your hair by touching it less often. We also strongly recommend using the right products for your hair type. We recommend Kapillixine Normalizing Cleanser Shampoo because it is a rebalancing formula, specifically for greasy hair. Kapillixine contains nettle extract and Cmc sulphate amino acid complex, both of which are great for balancing out the sebum on the scalp.

After using the Normalizing Cleanser, we recommend using the Kapillixine Golden Drops. These drops act as an intensive sebum-balancing treatment. Simply towel dry the hair and spread the Golden Drops evenly onto the scalp, massaging to aid absorption. Even better, it’s a leave-in treatment so you don’t need to worry about rinsing!

Greasy hair is nothing to be worked up about as it is completely treatable with the right knowledge. Let us know what works best for you!

Salon Shampoo Vs. Supermarket Shampoo

6/11/2020

If you find yourself wondering why you never see a hairdresser using the same shampoo you see in your local supermarket, this may answer your question. Here is everything you need to know about shampoo:

Concentration – Supermarket shampoos are diluted meaning more is required when washing your hair. Salon-quality shampoo is much more concentrated, so less is needed and each bottle lasts longer.
Deep Cleaning - Salon shampoo cleans the hair from the inside out, compared to supermarket shampoo’s that simply clean the surface. It is so important to repair and protect the hair between salon visits.
Sulfates – Supermarket shampoo’s contain sulfates which make the hair lather, giving the illusion of squeaky-clean hair when in reality, that is not the case. Opt. for sulfate-free formulas for the best care.
Prolonging your Color – Supermarket shampoos are notorious for stripping that expensive salon color right out of your hair. This in turn results in more salon visits, some of which could have been avoided with the right products.
Residue – Cheaper shampoos often leave a residue on the hair which leads to an oily, unclean feeling soon after washing. With higher-quality shampoo, you should only need to wash your hair 2-3 times each week.

So that, in a nutshell, is exactly why your hairdresser isn’t using €5 shampoo in the salon. Look after your hair with salon-quality products and trust us, you will save so much money in the long-run.
