Here goes:
Why:
Deep conditioning masks restore moisture, repair damage, and improve hair elasticity. They’re especially crucial for dry, brittle hair exposed to heat styling, environmental stressors and bleached/coloured hair.
How:
Apply a hydrating mask rich in argan oil or shea butter once a week. Leave it on for 10-20 minutes before rinsing thoroughly. And for added effect, rinse it with cold water as it brings more shine to your hair.
Products:

Why:
Scalp massages boost blood circulation, promoting hair growth and healthier roots. Also, who doesn’t love their head being massaged? The scalp massages helps reduce product build up, and can contribute positively as a hair loss treatment.
How:
The best and most basic way is to use your fingertips to gently massage your scalp in circular motions. Do this for 5 minutes every day or as often as you like on a dry scalp or why not use some hair oil too! You can also use Tangle Teezer Scalp Exfoliator and Massager as a tool to aid you.
Products:

How:

Products:

Why:
Get in a habit of getting regular trims as they prevent split ends from travelling up the hair shaft. Trims can maintain healthy lengths and reduce breakage. It will help in significantly reducing split ends.
How:
Ideally, you can schedule trims every 6 to 8 weeks. Focus on removing damaged ends without losing too much length.
Why:
Silk pillowcases reduce friction while you sleep. No one wants static shocks at every toss and turn at night. Reduced friction leads to minimal hair breakage, frizz, and tangles. The silk material is ideal for retaining moisture in your hair throughout the night.
How:
Easy! Simply swap your cotton pillowcase for a silk or satin one to keep your hair smooth overnight. As long as the silk is pure, you will experience the positive effects.

Why:
Water is the key to life. Similarly, hydration is the key to healthy hair. If your hair is dehydrated, it will easily become dry and brittle. Hydrate your hair as frequently as you see the need for it.
How:
Drink plenty of water daily. Get an app that reminds you to drink water at intervals. Buy water bottles that have timers and beepers. Additionally, you can add hair supplements rich in biotin, collagen, and vitamins to give your hair an extra boost.
Why:
Protective styles greatly help in reducing the manipulation of your hair. These styles will prevent breakage and split ends. You will also have your hair shielded from environmental stress.
How:
It’s simple, go for styles like braids, twists, buns, or updos with minimal tension to avoid scalp stress. These airy and easygoing hairdos will keep your hair fluffy, and bouncy, and keep the blood circulation flowing smoothly.
Recommendations:
Pick from a wide range of hair accessories available on Salon Trusted to get the protective hairstyle you want.
Why:
Let’s go back to the basic times now when overnight oiling was a frequent affair. Especially in Asian cultures, we still see the practice of overnight oiling everywhere. Overnight oiling deeply nourishes your hair. It helps in strengthening and hydrating the strands. It enhances the elasticity of your hair making it softer and shinier.
How:
Apply coconut, argan, or castor oil to your hair, focusing on the ends. Cover with a shower cap overnight, and wash thoroughly in the morning.
Products:
Buy the best hair oils for showing it the right TLC! Additionally, you can read Salon Trusted’s guide to finding the best hair oil for your hair.
Why:
If you wash your hair often, you will strip your hair of its natural oils. This can easily lead to dryness and flaky scalps.
How:
Limit washing your hair to 2 or 3 times a week. Additionally, use a sulphate-free shampoo to retain moisture.
Products:
Browse sulphate-free hair products on Salon Trusted. Also read more on hair washing in our blog How to Build a Haircare routine.
Why:
Your hair can have product buildup very easily if you apply too many products too often. This product buildup can clog your hair follicles which leads to dull hair and scalp irritation.
How:
Use a clarifying shampoo once a month to reset your scalp and refresh your roots. Make a habit of it too. This isn’t just washing, it’s clarifying your scalp of all the product buildup.
Products:
Buy the best clarifying hair products on Salon Trusted.
Why:
You can try leave-in conditioners as they provide continuous moisture throughout the day. These will protect your hair against dryness and frizz.
How:
Apply to damp hair after washing, and focus on mid-lengths to ends. Leave it be.
Products:
Buy the best leave-in conditioners on our website.
Why:
Instead of a traditional towel, use a microfibre towel. They are designed to reduce friction. They also absorb water more effectively without breaking or frizzing your hair.
How:
Gently squeeze excess water from your hair with the towel. Dap and twist. Never rub!
Why:
Similar to how protein is essential for gaining muscle, it is also crucial for your hair. It can help in strengthening your weak and damaged hair. It helps in reducing hair breakage.
How:
Use a protein treatment once a month to maintain a healthy moisture-protein balance.
Why:
Always protect your skin and hair from extreme elements. If you go out in summer, the UV rays will weaken your hair. It will cause dryness and colour fading. Similarly, if you go out too much in the winter, the dry wind will take away the essential moisture and oils from your hair.
How:
When going out, always wear a hat or any other protective accessory that shields your hair from the elements. Alternatively, if you want to flaunt your hairstyle, use hair products that have UV protection. Keep your hair away from extreme sunlight, extreme wind, etc.

Buy the best protective hair products from Salon Trusted.

Salon Trusted’s Guide to Veganuary 2025 – Insight: Vegan Brand
Salon Trusted is kicking off 2025 by celebrating Veganuary. The global movement working towards making the vegan lifestyle the ultimate choice started in 2014 in the UK. The purpose of Veganuary is to educate and encourage everyone to adopt the vegan lifestyle for the entire January every year. In addition to educating about the vegan lifestyle, why not let everyone have a taste of what’s in store, even if it’s for a month?
But Veganuary is not just about food, as most people usually assume. It’s about adopting the vegan lifestyle in every aspect of your life. From food to cosmetics, you eliminate the use of animal or animal-derived products that you consume, even use on your hair and skin.
For Veganuary 2025, Salon Trusted is showcasing the brand that has made progress in becoming one of the leading vegan and cruelty-free brands out there – Insight Professional. Their award-winning products and commitment to sustainability and veganism are beyond admirable.
When it comes to cosmetics and hair products, Veganuary emphasises being Vegan OK Certified, and cruelty-free. According to the Humane Society International, an estimated 500,000 animals suffer and die each year in cosmetic testing globally. The tests are painful procedures on animals such as guinea pigs, mice, and rabbits, who later on die due to skin irritation, lethal dose injections, or eye irritations.
Thankfully, over 40 countries globally have now implemented full or partial bans on animal testing. The UK’s fight against animal testing for cosmetics began in 1998 and it became one of the frontier countries to ban animal testing. The 2013 EU-wide ban has since prohibited selling cosmetic products tested on animals. But you should always look for the Cruelty-Free logos since some animal-tested ingredients from pharmaceuticals can still find a way into cosmetic products. Only the Cruelty-Free logo is a guarantee that the product wasn’t tested on animals. And this is where Insight shines brightly!
There’s a common myth that vegan cosmetic products are not as effective as their animal-tested alternatives. This is only a myth. Do not fall for this.
A cruelty-free product guarantees that it was not tested on animals but it may not always be a vegan product. A vegan product will contain no animal-derived ingredients but may not always be cruelty-free. So, the most ethical choice will always be a product that is both vegan and cruelty-free. Insight is both!
Always check the products you use and see if they have logos for being vegan, cruelty-free, sustainable, paraben-free, etc. A quick search on the internet will guide you into recognising the authentic logos for each certification while mentioning the authority that certifies it.
Remember, lanolin is a product we get from sheep’s wool, so it is not vegan. Carmine is a product made from crushed beetles, so it is not vegan. Squalene is taken from shark liver, so it is not vegan but it can be vegan if it comes from olive oil. Look for alternatives for these such as fruit waxes, algae-based squalene, and plant oils.
Now let’s talk about Insight, the vegan and cruelty-free brand we have chosen to highlight during Veganuary. It is a brand that is professional with expertise and a conscious approach. They care deeply about their clients, animals, the environment, and the planet. Their formulas stand out because they are safe, effective, and eco-friendly.
Insight holds ISO certifications for being a carbon-neutral company, for its quality system, for good manufacturing practices, and for an environmental system certification for its focus on circular economy.
All of the Insight hair products are Vegan OK Certified. The Skin and Man lines from Insight are certified by Eco Bio Cosmetics by ICEA. The Sensitive and Lenitive lines from Insight are certified by Cosmos Natural. It also heavily promotes the use of certified, sustainable palm oil (CSPO) following the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).
We chose Insight Professional for Veganuary 2025 for the following reasons. Most, if not all, of their products are:
Insight uses ozonated water in their formulas. Ozone molecules have three oxygen atoms due to their oxidative power. It is very effective as a disinfectant that does not release any chemical residue.
Insight uses functional active ingredients that are produced using organic agriculture. They use certified organic ingredients which are safe from soil to skin or hair, and even after.
Nickel is a metal found in clayey soils which can be absorbed by plants and animals alike. A great number of people are sensitive to it and it may be classified as an allergen for them. Insight actively tests its products to eliminate nickel.
Insight uses formulas that have a high percentage of plant-derived ingredients.
Insight shampoos are free from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES), both of which are potentially irritating and aggressive to the scalp and hair. The Cosmos Natural certification ensures that Insight products are dermatologically tested on sensitive skin to make them suitable for even the most sensitive skin out there.
For a future free from fossil fuel and its derivatives, Insight avoids using mineral oils and petroleum derivatives as the oil drilling industry is majorly responsible for global warming, CO2 emissions and being a heavy cost to the environment in general.
Insight products are free from silicones which end up in drains after being rinsed out and stay there for a long time. To commit to its eco-friendly mission, Insight does not use silicones despite its ability to give instant shine to hair.
Insight avoids preservatives such as parabens and MIT (Methylisothiazolinone) due to the controversy attached to them. These have been used in the industry for decades. But to stay in line with its sustainable philosophy, Insight avoids using them in its products.
Insight products are free from synthetic dyes except in products whose core function is colour treatment or anti-yellow treatment.
Insight Professional products have won multiple awards at the Hair Awards in 2023. This stands as a testament to their quality, effectiveness, and preference by their devoted clientele.
Salon Trusted is an advocate for vegan, cruelty-free, and sustainable products. This is why we choose to highlight Insight Professional for Veganuary 2025. It is a brand that resonates deeply with our mission of caring for the people who use hair and skin products as well as the planet we live on.
Buy the best vegan products from Insight Professional, and help the circular economy save the planet – one product at a time!

This guide will show you how to identify your face shape and match flattering hairstyles that work best for your face shape. We will also give you tips on how to achieve those looks using professional salon Products and electrical equipment.
Here is how to choose the best haircut for your face shape:
Firstly, we start with an oval face shape which is the most common face shape all over the world.

Here is how you can use everyday hair care tools and products from SalonTrusted to achieve some of the looks we mentioned for round faces:
If you don’t want to commit to a full fringe, use a small section of your hair, sweep it to the side, and secure it with a bobby pin or other hair accessory.
Flip your head upside down, brush your hair to the crown, secure it tightly with a scrunchie or elastic band, and then gently pull on the ponytail to add volume.
Use a texture spray and scrunch your hair after using a hot air styler on it to achieve a messy, fun, vibing shaggy bob.

A few celebrities with square faces are:
Here are a few hairstyles that will suit your square face:
Adding soft curls to your square face will give it the right amount of softness to your angular face and add a touch of femininity.
Your square face will be accentuated with a side parting as it will break the otherwise symmetrical proportions by being asymmetrical.
These long layers with added pieces will help elongate your square face and soften that sharp jawline of yours.

A soft updo with loose strands around your square face will create a romantic and gentle frame.
You can use hair accessories and products from SalonTrusted to achieve some of these hairstyles on your square face:
Use a curling wand or a hot air styler to wrap sections of your hair in a curl, and then pin them up once they are cool.
Part your hair on the side using a comb and apply a little mousse for volume to create a great side parting for your square face.
Use a curling wand to create a wavy long bob or if you don’t have one, just braid your damp hair overnight for natural waves in the morning.

Loose and soft waves will complement the natural heart shape of your face without adding bulk to it.
A low ponytail will draw attention downward and balance the wider top part of your heart-shaped face.

Brush your hair back and secure it at the nape of your neck, and then wrap a small section of hair around the base for an elegant finish.
The fifth face shape on our list is the diamond face which is prominent for its diamond-like features giving the face an edgy, boxy oval look.
If you want to check if your face is diamond-shaped, here are a few indicators:

Use a teasing comb to add volume to the crown of your head before you secure your ponytail and enjoy the volume.
If your bangs are long, pin them to the side, and use hairspray for texture and hold.
The last face shape is the oblong or rectangle faces which can be spotted instantly due to being longer than they are wide.
If you want to check if your face is oblong or rectangle-shaped, here are a few indicators:
A few celebrities with oblong or rectangle faces are:

The soft waves will add width and volume, and balance the elongated shape.
A blunt bob with bangs will create the illusion of width and soften the sharp angles of your rectangle face.
Sweep your hair to one side and add asymmetry to soften the length of your face.
Create a low bun and let loose a few strands to give a bit of softness to the angular sides of your face.
This is how you can achieve these styles at home:
Sweep your hair to the side, use a strong hair accessory to hold it to the side, and keep it there.
Tie up a low bun and use a proper hair tie or pin to keep it there, and use another hairpin to let loose a few strands to give it an accent.
Scrunch up your damp hair overnight, and let it naturally curl up in the morning to get soft waves for your oblong face.
No matter your face shape; oval, round, square, heart, diamond, or oblong, there will always be a perfect hairstyle for you.
The key is to embrace the features that make you unique and choose a style that enhances them. Whether you love sleek, straight locks or fun, voluminous curls, the right hairstyle can bring out the best in you.
Wear your chosen look with confidence, and remember: the best hairstyle is the one that makes you feel fabulous! After all, beauty is all about owning your style and rocking it with pride. Happy shopping at Salon Trusted!

How to Choose the Best Cruelty-Free and Vegan Brands in the UK
Have you ever wondered how to buy vegan and cruelty-free skincare, beauty and hair products? Do you want products from brands that are kind to animals and great for the planet? In this blog, we list down how you can buy the best vegan, cruelty-free skincare in the UK, as well as hair and beauty products. Whether you are a dedicated vegan, just curious about plant-based beauty, or a flexitarian, the following tips and recommendations will help you shop smarter and greener.
Cruelty-free beauty products means all products that have not been tested on animals at any stage of their production. This holds true for the brand you are buying from as well as third parties that may have collaborated with the brand. As this is highly unethical and unnecessary too since there are now so many alternative methods of testing products and making them safe and reliable.
However, cruelty-free and vegan are not entirely the same, as some cruelty-free products may contain animal-derived products such as beeswax. honey, lanolin or carmina. To make sure you’re buying a 100% vegan beauty product in the UK, always look for the certifications and labels from the following authorities:
This is the oldest and most respected vegan certification in the UK. It ensures that no animal ingredients or by-products are used in the product or its manufacturing process and that no animal testing has been done by the brand or its suppliers.
This widely recognised cruelty-free and vegan certification is issued by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. It verifies that no animal testing has been done on the product or its ingredients by the brand or its suppliers and that no animal-derived ingredients are used.
Additionally, you may visit the brand’s website to check out its official stance on animal testing. Almost all brands that are vegan or cruelty-free, or both have dedicated web pages to show their commitment. If you cannot find a clear stance on animal testing or being vegan, it is safer to avoid that brand altogether.
For hair care, you may think that it is hard to find vegan and cruelty-free products, but that is not true at all. There are now numerous brands that offer high-quality hair products that are free from all kinds of animal products, and these are not tested on animals either. Here’s how you can find the best vegan and cruelty-free hair products that are suitable for your hair type:
Avoid hair products that contain biotin, silk amino acids, collagen, elastin, or keratin. All of these are usually derived from animals. Instead, look for plant-based or synthetic alternatives that give you the same nourishment and strengthen your hair without harming any living soul.
One of the easiest and most convenient ways to find vegan and cruelty-free hair products is to do a simple search on the internet. Sometimes you will end up finding brands that only sell vegan and cruelty-free products. You can also visit online beauty stores such as Salon Trusted. Just filter your search by hair type, product type, and select ‘vegan’ and ‘cruelty-free’.
The next time you go to your local salon, ask them to use vegan and cruelty-free products on you. Ask them where to buy these products. They will be happy to recommend products and may even earn commission through affiliate programs.
When buying vegan and cruelty-free products, it’s important to look for products that are free from animal-derived ingredients.

A professional colourist will be able to assess your hair condition and history and recommend the best course of action to achieve your desired result. They will also have access to high-quality products and techniques that can minimise damage and maximise results.
Here’s how to maintain your colour at home:
Some of the professional colour services that are available at salons in the UK are:
This involves bleaching your hair to achieve a platinum-blonde shade. It requires careful application and monitoring by a professional. It also requires regular toning and maintenance.
This involves adding lighter strands of colour to your hair to create contrast and dimension. It can be customised to suit your skin tone and personal preference.
This involves applying one colour all over your hair from roots to ends. It can be done with permanent or semi-permanent colour depending on how long you want it to last. It can be in any shade you choose, from natural to vibrant.
This involves painting colour onto the surface of your hair in a freehand manner for a natural-looking effect. It can be done with any colour. It can also be done with different techniques, such as ombre or sombre, to create different gradients of colour.
Some salons offer colour packages that include a combination of services for a discounted price. For example, you might get a balayage, toner, cut, and blow-dry for a fixed rate. These packages save money and get you a complete makeover.
Here’s the list of recommended products for At-Home Maintenance:
For Colour-Treated Hair, Salon Trusted also recommends these products:

The Benefits of Using Professional Products vs Using High Street Products
If you love your hair, you probably spend a lot of time and money on it?
Great hair and good hair days can clearly make a huge difference in how you feel about yourself so we are prepared to part with our cash to get more of those good hair days. It’s a great confidence booster afterall.
Here at Salon Trusted we want to help answer the commonly asked questions ‘am I using the right products for my hair?, ‘am I getting the best value hair products for my money?’
You may be tempted to save a few pounds by buying budget hair products from the high street, thinking that they are all the same. But, in reality, there is a huge difference between high street products and professional hair products. Let’s explore how using professional hair products can benefit you and your hair compared to using high street hair products, and we will look to explain why it is worth investing in salon-quality hair care to get the best results.
The value behind using professional hair products is the special science and attention provided to the carefully chosen ingredients. These are products designed by experts who know how different ingredients affect the different types of hair. These high-quality ingredients are chosen and fused together to cater to all kinds of different hair and hair needs. These are tested rigorously and quality assured to give consistent and excellent results with each use.
On the other hand, high street hair products in the UK are often mass-produced with synthetic and cheap ingredients. These can significantly damage your hair in the long run. And since these high street products are a one-size-fits-all solution, they may not be ideal for two people with different hair types. Sometimes, these products also contain harmful chemicals such as parabens, silicones, and sulphates. These chemicals can strip away your natural oils leaving your hair dry, prone to breaking, and can often leave coloured hair look faded. This also means that in order to get the same result every time, you may have to use more product with each use.
Professional hair products from us at Salon Trusted may seem expensive at first, but they work better and last longer than their high street counterparts. You usually need a small amount of these better quality products to get great results. Sometimes, you may not have to wash your hair as often either. Additionally, you get healthier, more manageable, and shinier hair every time. Ultimately the professional products are far more trustworthy and do tend to lead to better results trusting you are using the product suited to your hair.
Professional hair care products are formulated specifically for a purpose. They are more durable in protecting your hair from any kind of factor that may damage or harm your hair. For example, if your hair is colour-treated, a high street hair product may not be effective in washing and preserving the colour of your hair. Whereas, a professional product will contain ingredients that help in protecting your hair from things like heat styling, UV rays, chlorine, and pollution. Apart from protection, these will also hydrate and nourish your hair and prevent it from being dull or faded.
You will clearly see that some high street colour care products may claim to do all of this too but they often fail to deliver the desired result. They contain harsh detergents that can easily wash away your colour treatment quickly. Sometimes, they do not even contain any beneficial nutrients to keep your hair nutrient-rich and moisturised. Professional products will keep your hair vibrant, rich and beautiful.
In terms of performance, professional hair products outshine their high street counterparts. These professional salon-grade products are guaranteed to deliver results because they contain high-grade ingredients catered to and customised to your specific hair type and need. In contrast, high street products are a gamble as you may never get the result you desired.
Professional hair products are designed to address specific hair concerns and goals, such as curl definition, frizz control, volume control, shine enhancement, and much more. Their advanced formulas work well with your hair’s natural texture and structure to the best possible outcome. In contrast, high street hair products are generic and expected to work the same promised magic on any type of hair and desired style. Not only do high street products perform poorly, but they may also result in unwanted build ups or residue. These will make your hair look dull or greasy.
After understanding why professional hair products are better than high street ones, the next step is to find trusted places to buy these. The answer is very simple; buy them from your local salon. You will end up getting high-quality professional products that suit your hair type and needs. You will also be greatly supporting your local salon through possible affiliate programs. The talented stylists will also offer precise and professional advice on how to use these products and work their magic on your hair.

Show appreciation for the craft of your local stylists, and help them by buying professional products they can easily guide you on. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.

Say Goodbye to Dandruff with These Simple Steps
The colder months are definitely among us! The colder weather often makes us more prone to dandruff since the scalp gets drier in these cooler months.
Let’s face it, dandruff is a nuisance, so let’s help you avoid it. At Salon Trusted, we believe in educating our customers about every issue that the products in our inventory can help to resolve. In this blog, we are highlighting a few tips that can help you say bye-bye to dandruff. Feel free to browse around our website and you may just find something that you are already looking for.
In the meantime, here are a few tips that can help you get rid of those flaky specks on your shoulders:
Mostly, the primary cause of dandruff, especially in winter or the colder months is the scalp being too dry. This can happen for quite a few reasons. To avoid this, always use a good quality hair oil or scalp moisturiser. Keeping your scalp hydrated will prevent dryness, which in turn will help you avoid getting dandruff. Check out this list of highly effective products for scalps on our website Salon Trusted.
We have a wide range of shampoos that will help you to avoid dandruff as these will be mild shampoos. Harsh shampoos can easily strip your scalp of its natural oils. This leaves your scalp dry and flaky becoming an ideal environment for dandruff to thrive. Mild shampoos are gentle on your scalp and help you get rid of any kind of irritation. Check this extensive list of shampoos on Salon Trusted to find the right one for your scalp.
Everyone loves a hot bath or a hot shower during the winter. But, this can lead to dryness of the scalp if the exposure is prolonged. If it is a quick bath or shower, feel free to wash your hair with hot water. Even in that case, we recommend using lukewarm water or even cool water to wash your hair. It will help in keeping your scalp fresh and healthy during the dry winter. As an added benefit, do moisturise your body along with your scalp.
Avoiding or minimising heat styling is a great way to combat dandruff, however as we are all aware, often, there are times when heat styling is necessary for example when you are heading out for a lovely evening or a date night. If it is absolutely necessary to use a blow dryer or a straightener, make sure you use a high-quality one that comes with a range of heat settings. We recommend using our superior Hur products that will ensure your hair is cared for during heat styling. You may also use a heat protectant spray to minimise the damage on your scalp when styling your hair with heat, we have a few fantastic heat protectant sprays on the site here.
Any cosmetic application works best when you combine it with a healthy and balanced diet. Take the right amount of vitamins and minerals to keep your body healthy and let your scalp stay healthy as well. A good measure for this is to add nuts, fish and leafy greens to your diet. Be careful of adding nutrients that you may be allergic to. Check the label for the ingredients and make sure you are eating well-rounded healthy meals.
Stress, if not managed properly, can also be a contributing factor towards dandruff. During the cold and grey months, add pops of colour to your visual experience every day. Watch and enjoy things that make you happy. If you want to relax further, you can always practise techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, and yoga. Do whatever works for you and keep your stress levels normal. The resulting benefits will be visible all around, on your face, on your scalp, your mood and your entire body.
If all of the above tips don’t minimise your dandruff, and it keeps increasing day by day, we suggest you seek medical advice. There may be an underlying cause that needs to be diagnosed and mediated. A professional dermatologist can help you assess what the problem is and how to resolve it. Don’t wait too long to seek help. Most medical issues can be eradicated completely and successfully if caught early on.
