Your New Best Friend

Rachel Ward on July 10, 2017

Ok ladies, get ready to meet your new best friend…

There’s a reason why Living Proof PhD Dry Shampoo has won several awards from Allure Magazine, including “Best of Beauty” and “Reader’s Choice Breakthrough 2016.” Living Proof Dry Shampoo has seriously changed our lives! It truly lives up to its “PhD” status of “Perfect hair Day.” With this magical stuff, you can treat your lovely locks by skipping the wash and getting a couple more days out of your curls, as it removes dirt and grease from your “do.” It smells great and blends well, even with dark hair.

But how do I use dry shampoo?

No worries, we’ve got you. After shaking the can really well, position the can approximately 6 inches away from your oil spots (we like to section the hair to really get it clean and get your volume back!). Spray the amount needed and let sit for 30-60 seconds, to allow the dry shampoo to absorb all of the oil and dirt that has built up. Rub the dry shampoo with your hands or softly with a towel. Voila!

You can pick up your new bestie from either of our locations. Stay beautiful!

5 Tips for Healthy Summer Hair

Rachel Ward on June 19, 2017

1. Sunscreen

Apply your regular sunscreen to your scalp. Don’t bother applying any to your hair, though! Sunscreen doesn’t protect your hair from UV rays like it protects the skin.

2. Cover Up

With a hat, that is! Not only will it protect your hair and scalp from the damaging effects of the sun, but it will keep your beautiful face shaded as well.

3. Deep Condition

Apply a deep conditioner once a week to your clean, wet hair just before you leave for the pool. Your cuticle will open up in the heat and absorb the hydration as you sit pool side.

4. Spray Conditioner

Your hair is like a sponge and will absorb the first thing it hits. Just before you get in the water, either douse it with a spray conditioner or get it wet with fresh water to help prevent as much pool water as possible from getting in.

5. Shampoo

Directly after you get out of the pool, wash your hair with a good, deep cleansing shampoo, and follow with a super hydrating conditioner ( we <3 Kevin Murphy’s Maxi Wash followed by their Hydrate.Me wash and rinse!). If nothing else, at least rinse your hair off with fresh water.

Living Proof!

Rachel Ward on May 22, 2017

Hello Lovely Ladies!

As many of you have noticed, pro Do has started carrying the Living Proof line! These sulfate- and paraben- free products are designed to repel dirt and oil, so you can go longer in between washes.

**Yes ladies. That means your blowout will last even longer!**

The science behind their products is pretty cool, with 3 molecular discoveries to help hair obtain and hold greater volume and texture, increase thickness and fullness, and, as mentioned earlier, repel dirt and oil for all over healthier hair. It’s also great to use on extensions! Living Proof allows users to go beyond a quick fix, with hair becoming visibly healthier over time. And, get ready for the cherry on top…it smells amazing.

Living Proof is available at both the Draper and South Jordan locations. Ask your stylist for more information the next time you’re in!

Sulfates and Parabens: What’s All the Hype?

Rachel Ward on May 1, 2017

Sulfate free? Paraben Free? What does that even mean?

Ok so here’s the gist of it. Sulfates and parabens are chemicals that are found in many common beauty products, like your hair products, makeup, face wash, etc. While these chemicals do their job in your beauty products, they can have negative long-term effects! We’ll break down each for you:

Sulfates are foaming agents. While they are great to give you sudsy soap bubbles, they have been found to break down proteins, which have a degenerative effect on cells in the long run. In the hair care world? Sulfates can cause a dry, irritated scalp, leading to those white flakes appearing on your favorite black top. They can also fade your color and cause the hair to lose its shine.

Parabens prevent bacteria and act as preservative. Although it has not been proven that parabens cause cancer by any means, fairly large amounts of parabens have been found present in breast tumors, leading researchers to believe it may be a possible cause or link to breast cancer.

Do my beauty products contain parabens or sulfates?? Both chemicals are fairly easy to recognize on the ingredient list on your beauty products; the chemical name will have “sulfate” or “paraben” as part of it, such as “butylparaben” and “sodium laureth sulfate.” Remember: the higher up on the list of ingredients, the higher content of that chemical!

Now, don’t be TOO frightened of these facading factors. While both have been found to link to potentially hazardous problems, there is no solid evidence or causation proof. So don’t go throwing away every single product that have the words “sulfate” or “paraben” on the ingredients list!

But, if you’re like us, and like to play it on the safe side, love your color to last, hair to be hydrated, and your “do” en pointe, we highly recommend the Kevin Murphy line and the Living Proof line (which we just recently started carrying!). Both are sulfate- and paraben-free, but will still give you an amazing lather, have a long shelf life, and oh….smell AMAZING. Do you have a favorite sulfate or paraben free beauty product? Spill!
