Energy Saving Hacks For Your Hair

3 Simple Energy Saving Hacks At Spirit Hair Salon In High Wycombe

There are so many reasons to think about how you can reduce the amount of energy you are using on a day-to-day basis. One of these is reducing your energy bills, but just as importantly reducing your impact on the environment. 

At Spirit Hair Company in High Wycombe, we are dedicated to being an eco salon which focuses on products that are good for the environment, and we are also teamed up with The Green Salon Collective which recycles almost all of our salon waste to turn it into something new. They recycle and recover hair, towels, used foils, empty colour tubes, chemicals, PPE, plastic & paper. As we are focused on our commitment to the environment, we thought we would share with you our top 3 energy-saving hacks, while still also looking fabulous and can save you a few pennies!

Minimise Your Heat Styling Time

It can be tempting to jump out of the shower and start blasting your hair straight away with your hairdryer to start the drying process. However, when you are at home, it is always worth allowing yourself the time so you can wrap your hair in a microfibre towel and wait until it is 80% dry before heat styling. 

Why not add a smoothing cream to your hair while it is damp and wait until it is completely dry, to avoid any frizziness if you are planning on using a straightener or curling tong? This will keep your hair in better condition as you are using less heat, and also gives you the benefit of reducing the amount of time you are using your heat tool. 

Make Sure You Are Using The Correct Products

Did you know that some products can actively help reduce the time it takes for your hair to dry? At the top hair salon in High Wycombe, we absolutely love the Goldwell Stylesign Just Smooth Smooth Control Spray. This product is perfect for any length of hair, texture and type. All you have to do is spray the Smooth Control onto towel-dried hair and the FlexPROtec technology provides heat protection and colour protection as well as improving the manageability of the hair but speeds up the blow-drying time for faster and easier blow-drys. 

Using products like the Smooth Control Blow-Dry spray not only improves the experience of blow-drying your hair, as it is quicker and easier, but it also helps you to reduce the time you have the heat on your hair. 

Another way products can help reduce the energy you are using is by using a purifying shampoo which will effectively remove product buildup and excess oil, allowing you to go longer between hair washes. Also, using a dry shampoo between washes can help extend the time between hair washes. Ask your Spirit Hair Stylist to recommend the best products for keeping your energy usage down!

Reduce The Heat At Shower Time

Now, we are all sure you have been encouraged to reduce the time you spend in your shower, but we have a different hack for you. Reducing the heat of the water on your hair will not only help to reduce your energy usage, but it will actually help you to maintain the colour in your hair. Hair colour is prone to fading when it is washed often on high heat, which can mean the need for more top-up toners at the salon. However, by simply reducing the temperature of your showers, you can protect the integrity of your hair colour and also reduce the amount of energy you are using.
