How should I wash after exercising or sweating?

When you worked out before, did you feel the need to wash your hair? If so, do the whole kit-n-kaboodle, with the #18 SOS (it’s fine used on a sweaty scalp). If you don’t want to have a full shower, simply use #26 Chillout to detox post-workout and wait to wash in the morning. The […]

How often should I switch conditioners and how long should I use each one?

There are no numbers carved in stone for this; you need to listen to your hair for each of the conditioners, not just randomly switch for no particular reason. When you switch too often the conditioner doesn’t have enough time to work. Use one conditioner until you learn how to tell if it’s taken. Your […]

Do I pre-treat my whole head, including my bangs?

Some of you are applying way too much pre-treat, and too high up, not knowing why we do it. The idea is to end up with an even texture all over, adding nutrients where wear has taken place (usually old ends, and maybe a bit on the longer surfaces if needed). Definitely do not pre-treat indiscriminately […]

Do I spray the #27 Chillout Spray on just the top of my head, or on my hands and rub it in like the #18 SOS Oil?

The best coverage for #27 Chillout Spray is achieved by spraying your scalp in 1 inch partings from the top of your head and down the sides to the nape. Spray from 6 inches away on to areas to be treated. Full scalp coverage should be done at least every other time you do #18 […]

Why don’t you sell a smaller, shorter-term Longhairs® MagicPack®?

Because it just doesn’t work out; it is not enough product to actually get a grip on things before product-anxiety and the need to reorder (link opens new tab) kicks in. It becomes close to ‘over’ too soon, so inevitably reordering comes all at once. You switch the shampoos independently of the conditioners and oils, so reordering […]

How much of the conditioner should I use?

I try to teach the client to learn to recognize ‘satisfaction’ by using what it takes. Everyone’s hair is different and has different times and phases where it needs to be respected and listened to – catered to. Seriously, if you must measure your conditioners, I’d say a good tablespoon or more of #10-A or #10-B’s […]

How do I ease the Flexipick through my hair during a shower?

Quickly dash that area of your hair or the Flexipick itself under the shower stream and continue. Repeat this little trick as needed. It removes foam when your hair has finished eating the good out of that conditioner. It also rinses necessary new conditioner from above that rough point onto that needy area. For detangling, […]

Is re-treating then combing OK?

Always SmoothComb FIRST then re-treat – never the other way around. You only need the RT to go where it was put, not smearing all over where it isn’t needed.
