Glow Into Winter: Holiday Hair Prep & Extension Care
As the holidays approach, your calendar fills up with parties, family dinners, work events, and maybe a last‑minute getaway. At Salon 1827, we believe this season is the time to let your hair shine, with stunning extensions, radiant color, and smart care that keeps your hair healthy through the festivities.
Why winter prep matters now
Cold air, dry indoor heating, and holiday styling (heat tools, frequent brushing, hats) can leave natural hair and extensions dry, dull, or prone to tangling. This can especially affect tape‑ins, sew‑ins, or bond extensions that need moisture and gentle care. We recommend switching to a sulfate‑free, moisturizing shampoo + conditioner, and using a rich leave‑in or oil. A weekly deep‑conditioning mask (extension‑safe, of course) will preserve softness and shine throughout the season.
Pre‑holiday refresh timeline
If you have extensions, now is a smart time for a maintenance or reposition appointment, and a gloss or color‑tone check to see if your roots are showing. For those planning color services, consider a soft balayage, warm highlights, or subtle lowlights to add dimension without an overt commitment, perfect for winter wardrobes and holiday photos.
Styling for festive gatherings
Soft curls, polished blowouts, or gentle waves create classic holiday-ready looks that flatter hair extensions. Use a lightweight heat-protectant, and consider a satin pillowcase or silk scrunchie at night to reduce friction and preserve your style.
Gift-worthy care: a thoughtful little extra
A curated treatment from our salon, perhaps a luxurious leave-in serum, bog‑safe mask, or protective wrap, makes a beautiful small gift to yourself (or a loved one) that extends the life and health of your extensions.
Step into the holidays with confidence, knowing your hair is nourished, styled, and ready for every celebration. Learn more about our extension services here.
