HOW THIS TOWEL TURBAN CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE…

While the title of this article might sound like an exaggeration…we are not joking! Adding this towel turban to your hair care routine really is life changing! Healthier and stronger hair is only a few steps away so keep reading!

WET HAIR IS WEAK HAIR

Every time you wet your hair, every strand’s cuticle expands, opening it to damage. This means that the way you choose to dry your hair plays a huge role in keeping it strong and healthy.  Blow dryers should be used for styling and gentle hair turbans should be used for drying. The towel turban eliminates friction when drying and allows your hair cuticle to stay intact and lock in moisture.

NOT ALL TOWEL TURBANS ARE THE SAME

Choosing a high quality towel turban is important and you will notice a significant difference in the time that it takes for your hair to dry, the texture of your hair, and more.  Here at the salon, we only recommend products that we use, have tried and loved. Our favorite hair turban is the AQUIS Original Lisse Hair Turban.

WHAT MAKES THIS TURBAN BETTER THAN OTHERS?

  • Dries your hair 50% faster than any other method.
  • It’s a gentle and natural solution to dry your hair.
  • It’s made with proprietary moisture-wicking fabric.
  • This material helps your hair get stronger, healthier, and reduces frizz!
  • Hands free hair drying! The button/loop closure keeps it securely in place. Multi-task all you want!

Using this hair turban regularly will make a big difference.  Avoiding friction and heat is key to keeping your hair strands smooth, strong, and hydrated! Want one? You can order one from our online store here: AQUIS Original Lisse Hair Turban and we can ship it to your doorstep or you can pick it up at our salon!

The Most Powerful Hair Repair

The Miracle Fruit Oil is hands down one of our favorite products to recommend to clients who are looking for hair repair.  This product is Clinically-proven to significantly prevent and reduce hair breakage and reverse damaged hair. It is also the only hair oil treatment in the world that contains the miracle fruit seed oil. Here is how it works and why we love it so much…

What is the Miracle Fruit Seed Oil?

This product is derived from a natural and healthy source; the miracle fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) berry.  It’s rich in phytonutrients and it has a very similar composition to the natural oil produced by our own scalp

How Does It Work?

It naturally moisturizes, strengthens, nourishes, protects, and restores hair from damage.

Here are some of the results from the clinical trial:

  • 3X Stronger Hair and significantly reduced hair loss due to breakage and repaired split ends.
  • 200% Increase in the Healthy Hair Index-significantly increased hair mass and density by reducing breakage.
  • Protected and reversed hair from damage caused by chemicals, physical agents, pollution, heat, and UV rays.
  • Reversed hair from damage even with thinning hair
  • Users were extremely satisfied and felt the difference in the healthier performance of their hair

We have seen these results ourselves! As you know, we only recommend products that we have tried and loved! We can recommend the Miracle Fruit Seed Oil with confidence.  It’s dermatologist tested and recommended, cruelty free, organic, and most importantly…it works! It checks all the boxes, so If you are looking for an intense hair repair product and want softer, shinier, smoother, and healthier hair, then we recommend you give the Miracle Fruit Seed Oil a try.  You can order it from our online store and we can ship it to you or you can come into our salon and pick it up!

National Purple Day – Purple Everything!

By //  by  Leave a Comment

Purple Day Pic

March 26th is National Purple Day – Epilepsy Awareness Day.  It’s a day that aims to increase the public’s knowledge of a neurological condition affecting nearly 50 million people worldwide.  Here at the salon we love being involved with our community and with many non-profits to help in any way we can.  We believe in the power of community, we believe in the power of love, and most importantly, on National Purple Day and every other day, we believe in the power of the color purple!

 

Significance of the color purple and Nirvana:

Purple combines the calm stability of blue and the fierce energy of red. This combination screamed loud and clear what we wanted to bring to our clients and what our hearts wanted Salon Nirvana 954 to be; a place of Zen, calm, and tranquility for our clients combined with the most fierce, creative and professional staff. The color purple is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition. Purple also represents meanings of wealth, creativity, wisdom, dignity, devotion, peace, independence, and magic! I guess that sums it up…this color is magic.

 

Purple is the color of imagination and spirituality:

Being a part of a creative industry for so many years, it has always been important to us to maintain a high spiritual connection with ourselves and with what we do.  The color purple relates to the imagination and spirituality. It stimulates the imagination and inspires high ideals. It is an introspective color, allowing us to get in touch with our deeper thoughts. Purple encourages creative pursuits and seeks inspiration and originality through its creative endeavors. It likes to be unique, individual and independent, not one of the crowd.

 

The Color Purple in Business:

Aside from the deep spiritual connection we felt with the color purple, we also learned that it’s psychological effect in business was also very much aligned with our business goals. Physiologically, it heightens people’s sense of beauty and their reaction to more creative ideas.

It is often used to denote a high quality or superior product which is exactly what we are here to offer.

As you can see, we didn’t just randomly pick the color purple for our business because we liked it (Especially me, for those who know me, I’m a redhead and I clash with purple lol).  We felt connected to this color from the very beginning and now you can see it everywhere in our salon, from our big purple wall with the Buddha mural, to our towels, our logo, and more.

So, we would like to invite you to join our purple addiction for a day.  It’s National Purple Day and let’s help spread awareness for Epilepsy. Today is purple day, tomorrow is another day, keep the positivity going! Find a way to get involved with your community, help your neighbor, be kind to one another, find a way to make a difference.  If you need help finding a non-profit or organization to work with, feel free to email us! We work with many local non-profits that can always benefit from help!

With love,

Salon Nirvana 954.

The next thing in hair straightening is Magic Sleek!

By //  by  Leave a Comment

 

So many women love to straighten their hair, and they do so themselves, or they get a keratin treatment.  Studies have come out that advise against the use of Keratin because it does more damage than good.  With the keratin treatment, the molecules of the keratin cluster themselves to the natural hair protein fiber of the hair and when it washes out it pulls the natural fiber with it, leaving your hair more damaged. Thankfully, there is a healthier and better solution available now, MAGIC SLEEK is the next generation of hair straightening treatments.

What is Magic Sleek?

Magic Sleek is a new hair straightening treatment similar to Keratin, only better!  Magic Sleek lasts longer and is healthier because it doesn’t contain harsh chemicals and is 100% formaldehyde free containing no methylene-glycol.  In short, Magic Sleek is the newest and best option out there to straighten your hair!

Is Magic Sleek safe?

This is a question we’re asked so often, and the answer is yes!  Magic sleek is 100% formaldehyde-free, and it doesn’t contain any methylene-glycol or any other harsh chemicals that can become harmful when heated.  Magic Sleek doesn’t have the negative health risks other hair straightening treatments have.

How long does Magic Sleek last?

Magic Sleek can last up to 6 months! Magic Sleek doesn’t wash out, so you can enjoy it for a long time. Every time the hair is washed, it will dry perfectly straight and frizz-free without applying heat or brushes.

Magic Sleek Versus Keratin

Magic Sleek is not an alternative to Keratin. Magic Sleek is a successor to Keratin.  Unlike Keratin, Magic Sleek isn’t simply another hair straightening treatment, it helps hydrate and nourish your hair, cuticles, and scalp with Argon Oil and amino acids. It also helps protect your hair color, adds softness, and shine to your hair, and it protects your hair from damage.

3 Ways Organic Hair Color Products are Better for you

By //  by  Leave a Comment

We’ve all heard organic is better, organic is healthier, and organic is the future. But why are people saying this? Here are three reasons why we chose to use organic, holistic, and toxin-free hair color products.  

Zero Toxins or Dangerous Ingredients

Beautiful hair should not compromise your health. What’s the point of having beautiful hair if your health is being affected? Organic hair color products are better for you because they do not contain chemicals or toxins that can harm you. One such chemical is ammonia, which is known for causing health conditions like headaches, chronic cough, and rashes when someone is repeatedly exposed to it over time.  

Organic and Sustainable

Organic products are better for you because they are made with the fewest and cleanest chemicals possible. The products we use have been proven to be better for your hair than their non-organic counterparts.  

Organic and sustainable products are important not just for your future health, but for the future health of our planet. At Salon Nirvana, we believe in providing beauty services that do not compromise on results or your health. NATULIQUE defined sustainability as “meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” and we couldn’t agree more with this statement. 

Gentle on Your Strands

Harsh chemicals are just that; they are harsh. The hair color products we use contain pure natural sunflower seed extract, jojoba oil, and apricot seed oil, which help provide extra conditioning and natural color with fewer chemicals.

And there you have it. Three reasons why organic hair color products are better for you and why you should switch to them. Here’s a little more information on the hair color line we use and why we use them. 

Which hair color product do we use?

We chose NATULIQUE because their vision and values are in line with what we believe in. Their products are all created with zero toxins or dangerous ingredients, so you can focus on looking fabulous and not worry about your health being compromised.

Keep Your Curls Hydrated!

By //  by  Leave a Comment

Caring for your curls is extremely important, and one of the most essential steps in any curly hair girl’s routine is hydration. Curly hair loses moisture faster than straight hair because of its shape, which is why you need to condition your hair properly. 

Many women come to us with concerns they have regarding their curly hair. The most common problem we see is dullness, uneven curl patterns, and dryness. The best way to solve these is with proper hydration, which starts from the inside and out. Like with anything, make sure to drink enough water throughout the day every day, but also make sure to use a deep moisturizing conditioner (we recommend Be My Curl) to really hydrate your hair and scalp.  

Hydration will fix the dull look of dry hair along with giving your curls an even pattern, so you can take full advantage of your beautiful hair! Remember, curly hair is unique, your curls are a part of you, so treat them with care. 

Simple Curly Hair Regime:

  1. Use a non-sulfite hydrating shampoo and conditioner
  2. While in the shower, apply Be My Curl Primer layered with a hydrating gel from Be My Curl.
  3. Blot out the excess water and product with a microfiber towel or a cotton t-shirt.
  4. Air dry or use a diffuser to softly dry and enhance your curls 
  5. Apply a hair mask once or twice per week, depending on your curls needs. 
  6. Detangle your hair when wet using your fingers.  

Looking for a salon for your curly hair?

Salon Nirvana 954 offers curly hair services, so be sure to check us out for all your curly hair needs. As a curly-haired woman myself, I understand how difficult it can be to find a salon to cut and style curly hair. I love my curls, and I want you to love yours. Come in or call for a consultation and discover how we can create the look you want, all while using organic, holistic, and toxin-free products.  

Wedding Hairstyle Tips

By //  by  Leave a Comment

Prepping for the big day? Yay! Your wedding day is all about you, and we have a few, simple tips to make you look even more glamorous than you thought possible.

Here are a few wedding day hair tips to keep you looking fabulous!

Do not wash your hair on the day of your wedding!

It’s not gross. In fact by washing your hair the day of your wedding you are making it too soft to keep the hairstyle in place. Washing your hair the night before is recommended.

Do everything with enough time, including getting your hair done. Do not rush your hairstylist.

You don’t want to have every second accounted for. Give yourself time to fix any mishaps that can come up. This also empowers you to be in control, so when the time comes to say “I do” you look gorgeous and not stressed. The same thing goes with your hairstylist. Don’t rush them. Give them time to style your hair so you can walk away knowing with 100% confidence your hairstyle won’t be undone. Nothing is worse for your hairstyle than out of place strands!

Plan for touch-ups.

Take extra products to touch-up any mishaps that can happen or for the reception.

Last-minute haircuts and color changes are usually not a good idea.

Have a plan beforehand in regards to your hair, because the last thing you want is to have wedding day pictures you’ll be looking at for decades that you’re not happy with. This is your day. Do not leave everything for the last minute. Book an appointment with your hairstylist and show them examples of the style you want. With enough time you can totally try each style out and see what they look like!

Have a second look for the reception

When it’s time for the reception, you can show up with an entirely new look! Most brides change their dress for the reception, so why not do the same for your hairstyle?

A trial run is always a must

You have this image of what you’re going to look like once your hair is done and your veil is on. A trial run puts it all out there so you can see it live and in person! Also, please don’t forget to consider your veil! See what’s involved with putting on and taking it off. Make sure to know exactly what your hair looks like with it on and how to properly take it off.

 

How To Go Longer Without Washing Hair Everyday

By //  by  Leave a Comment

You hear it all the time, but for some reason, it is a hard rule to follow. We are talking about washing your hair. Just like all the beauticians say, it is not a good idea to wash your hair every day. The longer periods you wait in between, the better. But is there a secret trick when it comes to waiting longer between washes? The experts at Salon Nirvana 954 say yes. We are here to inform you the key to avoid washing hair everyday. We offer the best hair stylist in Fort Lauderdale.

One Can Only Dream

Imagine if you never had to wash your hair again? Unfortunately that isn’t quite doable but stretching out the gap between washes definitely is. If you’re someone who shampoos every day then you’re going to have a long way to go but it’ll be totally worth it and could help to improve your hair health too. You can trust the best hairstylist in Fort Lauderdale.

Tips and Trick to Avoid Washing Hair Everyday

Just follow these simple steps and in no time you will be on the road to healthier, more vibrant hair.

  • Pick the right shampoo
    • Over-stripping or overloading your hair with shampoo will only make it more greasy so you need to choose one that will gently cleanse your hair without throwing it off balance. You definitely want to avoid sulfates or clarifying shampoos as they will strip all the oil from your scalp and make it produce even more. The same goes for heavy, oil-based shampoos that create a lot of product buildup and weigh down your hair.
    • Don’t condition your roots. It’s important to use the least amount of product on your scalp as possible to avoid weighing down your hair if you want it to last longer between washes. Conditioners can be quite heavy, so you really want to keep them on the mid-lengths and ends and avoid your roots.
  • Spend more time on your blow-dry
    • Restyling your hair will make it greasy way quicker so getting your look down on day one will make a huge difference. A classic bouncy blow-dry will set your hair in place and give it some extra volume which is perfect for disguising oily roots, so this is a good go to. You also want to use a blow dry balm or a heat protectant with some hold to prep your hair so that it has the best chance of lasting.
  • Prep your hair for bed
    • There’s no point in spending hours on a blow-dry or styling your hair if you’re just going to ruin it in your sleep. Re-styling every morning will make your roots more greasy so it’s worth prepping it right to avoid the hassle. It’s also best to tie your hair in a low pony or bun using a scrunchie as they don’t leave kinks. Alternatively, you can twist your hair up into a really high bun for loads of volume in the morning or a very loose braid to preserve your curls. You might want to switch to a silk pillowcase too as they’re way less drying than cotton ones and won’t make your scalp produce more oil.
  • Don’t touch it
    • Now is a good time to stop. Touching your hair transfers the oils from your fingers onto your hair so it’ll get greasy a lot faster if you keep playing with it.
  • Dry shampoo in the evening
    • If you’re looking to go longer between washes, then you’re definitely going to need some dry shampoo! Rather than applying it in the morning though you want to do it the night before so that it has loads of time to sink in and do its magic. This will also help to give your hair more volume, and you won’t be left with any white residue either.
  • Brush it
    • Brushing helps to distribute the oils from your scalp down the lengths of your hair to keep your roots looking fresh. You don’t want to overdo this but once or twice a day in the morning or evening is perfect. The best thing to use is a boar bristle brush as it really helps to shift the oils from your scalp and is nice and gentle on your locks.
  • Nail the 3rd-day hairstyles
    • Some hairstyles work better with 3rd-day hair and will help to disguise your roots and work with the texture. Sleek hairstyles like a low bun or a glossy pony are perfect as they work with the shine of your hair and don’t require a lot of volume. Braids are also an excellent shout as they help to build texture which will disguise your roots.

Factors That Influence Wedding Hairstyles

By //  by  Leave a Comment

Your wedding is the most important day of your life. It is a time that you will remember and cherish forever. Because of this, everything must be perfect. Although, you are not trying to be a bridezilla, every detail counts. A very important aspect that you must look over is hair, and not just yours. You need to ensure that individual in your wedding party is representing you with the perfect wedding hairstyle. We can make that happen at Salon Nirvana 945. We are the best hair salon Fort Lauderdale.

 

Things To Remember

Although it may seem easy to choose a hairstyle that everyone can benefit from, the process is deeper and more complicated than that. There are actually a few factors that you must take into consideration when deciding hairstyles. You have probably seen hundreds of beautiful hairstyles in celebrity magazines and on your Pinterest board that you like for your wedding. However, before you bring a picture to a hairstylist and proclaim that this is the hairstyle you want for your wedding day, there are a few things to consider. Remember that the way your hair looks on your wedding day is just as much a part of the entire outfit as the shoes or dress itself. You can have your bridesmaids all match each other, match you or have their own hairstyles. The way you choose to do your hair will be documented in your wedding photos for the rest of your life, so it is essential to choose carefully based on the following aspects. You can trust the best hair salon Fort Lauderdale to provide you with the best service.

 

Consider These Things for a Wedding Hairstyle

  • Bridesmaids
    • If you are thinking about having your bridesmaids match your hair, you’ll first have to think about their hair lengths and types before you start dreaming about matching updos.
  • Location
    • Where is this special event taking place? Inside? Outside? Will you be inside a church or religious establishment? What is the tone and dress code of your venue? The location of your wedding will help dictate what kinds of hairstyles would be appropriate for you and your bridesmaids.
  • Weather
    • This is extremely important, especially in a rainy state like Florida. Check the weather forecast for your wedding date and think about what makes the most sense when it comes to temperature and setting. The last thing you want is your hair destroyed when you are exchanging vows.
  • Budget
    • Hair and makeup are often counted into a wedding budget. If you want all of your bridesmaids to have matching hair, it’s good etiquette to pay for them as well. Once you’ve added up all the hairstyles you need to have done for both the trial run and the wedding day, you might be surprised at the total budgeted amount.
  • Dresses
    • The most important thing to consider when choosing your bridal hair is what your dresses look like. They must complement each other or else you will look unbalanced.
