For many women, regular salon visits are something that just wouldn’t be considered. Going to the salon is a treat, you might think, and best reserved for when you really need it. You probably aren’t going enough as it is. Regular salon visits, meaning at least monthly salon visits, are better than sporadic trips and the occasional pampering, and for a number of reasons.
Still think the quarterly visit to the salon is better? Here are 7 reasons why you really should be going to the salon regularly.
Stay Current With Beauty Trends
There are some people that just have a classic look that don’t have to or want to change, but others like to stay current with today’s beauty trends. For the person looking to keep up with the latest and greatest of hairstyles, nail styles and so on, that requires getting an update more often than once or twice a year. That requires regular visits to the salon.
If your regular beauty salon keeps up with the latest beauty trends, visiting as often as you are able to will help ensure that you keep current.
Professional Styling That Lasts Longer
One of the worst parts of professional styling is something that has nothing to do with the salon or the stylist, but rather what happens afterward. You go in, have your hair cut, shaped, sculpted and styled and it looks great. You feel great because of it. The rest of your day is amazing and you get the boost of confidence that only a truly great styling can really provide.
Then you go home. A few days go by, and you can’t keep your hair in the same fashion. It starts to lose the shape and then, within a few weeks or so…all the benefit of having gone to the salon is gone.
Regular visits can diminish this aspect of hair care and styling. This way, your hair can maintain the look and benefits of professional styling. This keeps your hair looking great and you feeling great about it. It’s an investment in how you feel about your appearance.
The Pampering Helps
Let’s be honest – the pampering and personal attention that you get with a good salon is something we all wish we got more often. Feeling like royalty every so often and having your needs and wants attended to is a good thing.
Some would say it’s needed from time to time.
Instead of thinking of it as a luxury that you indulge in from time to time, think of it as an investment in your self-esteem, in your well-being. Having a little bit of pampering every month or so can give you something to look forward to and give you that bit of boost that you need to make you feel good. It may not be an investment that pays dividends in terms of money…but it sure will in terms of how good it makes you feel.
Regular Expert Skin Care Will Keep Your Skin Looking And Feeling Amazing
For those who go to the salon for more than just hair, a bit of regular professional skin care can keep your hands, feet, face and other skin healthy and feeling luxuriously good. Just like how salon styling can wear off and leave your hair looking dull within a week or two, the same effect can be observed in skin if you aren’t getting an exfoliation and scrub as often as you should.
The best way to keep your skin looking and feeling its best is to have it regularly treated at a salon where they know what’s best for your skin. You don’t want your skin to look and feel as good as it could only some of the time, do you?
We All Need An Escape From Time To Time
Once you’ve found a salon that you love, it becomes kind of like a second home or at least a getaway from home or the office. Having a place like that can give us the release we sometimes need, and once you add the pampering that you get at a good salon into the equation…it’s not only necessary to have a salon for the sake of your hair and skin; it’s necessary to have one for the sake of you.
Whatever you spend on hair and nail treatment, you get so much more back in terms of intangible benefits. That makes regular salon visits more than worth it on a personal basis, beyond merely maintaining your appearance.
Maintain Healthy Hair
Getting regular washings and stylings with salon-quality products is key to maintaining healthy hair, and home shampooing and conditioning don’t always do the trick. How often has your hair to curl, frizz and otherwise start to fall apart after a few weeks of a hair treatment and styling? So many women (and men as well) notice that their hair begins to go wild within a few weeks of a being tamed by professional.
Ever known anyone that’s just crazy about their car? Takes it into the mechanic every two or three months regardless and so on? Why not show your hair the same devotion, and keep it growing and thriving as best as it can instead of just when it’s starting to get unhealthy?
Loyalty Rewards Can Be Generous
Another good reason to have regular salon visits is that there can be loyalty rewards and possible freebies that can be earned from being a regular. Getting to try new products before anyone else, discounts, access to favorite stylists and technicians before others, and so on. Perks of loyalty can add up, especially if discounted pricing or freebies are involved.
Loyalty can really pay off, especially at the right salon.
There are more reasons than these 7 to visit the salon more often, but there aren’t too many that are more compelling. You’ll love visiting the salon more often – and your hair, nails and skin will love you back!
