Mastering Summer Hair Care: The Best Anti-Frizz Products


Mastering Summer Hair Care: The Best Anti-Frizz Products

As we welcome the sunny season of summer, it’s time to talk about a common hair woe that many of us face during these warm months – frizz. Yes, the humidity and heat can turn our hair into a frizzy mess. But worry not; we’ve got you covered with some of the best anti-frizz products that will keep your hair smooth, shiny, and gorgeous all summer long!

Understanding Frizz

Before we dive into the products, let’s understand what causes hair to frizz. Frizz happens when your hair is dry and lacks moisture. The outer layer of your hair, known as the cuticle, opens up and lets the air rush in, leading to a puffy hair shaft. This is why humidity often makes hair frizzy.

How to Fight the Frizz

The key to managing frizz is to keep your hair moisturised and healthy. This can be achieved with a good hair care routine that includes a hydrating shampoo, a moisturizing conditioner, and an anti-frizz product to seal the deal. And guess what? You can find all these products right here at Salon Trusted!

The Salon Trusted Anti-Frizz Range

At Salon Trusted, we have a fantastic range of products designed to fight the frizz and keep your hair looking its best. Here are some of our products:

1. Foamie Shampoo Bar and Conditioner Bar

Meet your hair’s new best friends – the Foamie Shampoo Bar and Conditioner Bar! These aren’t your average hair care products but an innovative solution designed specifically for dry and frizzy hair.

Infused with the goodness of Argan Oil, these solid bars do so much more than just cleanse. They offer a threefold benefit – they massage, cleanse, and care for your hair. The result? Hair that not just looks good but feels good too. Say goodbye to frizz and hello to a shiny, well-nourished mane!

But that’s not all. These bars respect your hair’s natural pH of 5.5, maintaining the perfect balance for your hair and scalp. They’re also effortless to use, thanks to their ergonomic shape. No more fumbling with slippery bottles in the shower!

And did we mention that these bars are an eco-friendly choice too? They’re more environmentally friendly than conventional shampoo bottles, and they’re 100% plastic-free. Plus, they’re vegan, dermatologically tested, and made right here in Germany.

What’s more, they’re free from mineral oils, PEG, soap, parabens, and silicones and are reliable. Just pure, natural, vegan hair care that’s perfect for you and for our planet.

Whether you’re happy at home or on the move, these bars can become your perfect companions. Plus, you don’t need to think about liquid restrictions on flights or spillages in your bag ever again.

2. Hair Movement Fight The Frizz Range

The star of the range, the Fight the Frizz Anti-Frizz Spray, isn’t just any anti-frizz spray. It’s a multi-tasking wonder that goes above and beyond to transform your hair. Infused with a unique mix of water lily, coconut, and Arabian coffee extract, this spray works tirelessly to build keratin, thicken hair strands, and remove impurities. This results in hair that is not only free from frizz but also appears shinier, easier to manage, and with added volume.

But wait, there’s more. The Anti-Frizz Spray doesn’t just work on the surface. It goes deeper, stimulating your follicles to promote stronger hair at the foundation and root. So you’re not just dealing with the symptoms of frizz; you’re addressing the root cause.

Now, let’s talk about how to use this fantastic product. The Anti-Frizz Spray is a finishing product that can be used on dry as well as wet hair. And the best part? Its heat protector works on all hair types. The anti-frizz benefits, however, are immense. It will help reduce frizz and maintain styles longer, giving you that salon-finished look all day long.

The application is a breeze. Just apply a small amount through damp or dry hair and massage through mid-lengths to the end of your hair. Comb through for proper distribution and style as usual. It’s perfect for use before and after a blow-dry, helping you achieve that flawless, frizz-free style with ease.

3. Insight Anti-Frizz Range

How to Choose the Right Tan Product for Your Skin Type?


How to Choose the Right Tan Product for Your Skin Type

Choosing the right tan product is an essential step towards achieving a beautifully bronzed glow. It’s not just about the depth of colour; the right product can nourish your skin, provide a smooth application, and offer longevity.

But with a plethora of options available in the market, how can you select the perfect one for your skin type? Here are some factors to consider:

Understanding Your Skin Type

Truly knowing your skin type is the very first step in choosing the right tan product. Here are the common skin types and suitable tan products:

1. Normal Skin: If you have balanced skin, neither too dry nor too oily, you could use just about any type of tanning product, from lotions to mousses.

2. Dry Skin: For those with dry skin, opt for moisturising tanning lotions or creams, which can help hydrate your skin while providing a tan. Look for specific products with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.

3. Oily Skin: Mousse or gel-based tanning products are ideal for oily skin, as they’re lightweight and less likely to clog pores.

4. Sensitive Skin: If you have really sensitive skin, seek hypoallergenic products with minimal fragrance and fewer chemicals. Always perform a patch test before full application.

Consider the Depth of Tan

Tan products come with varying degrees of DHA (Dihydroxyacetone), the active ingredient that darkens the skin. Lighter skin tones may want to start with lower DHA levels for a natural-looking tan, while darker skin tones may require a higher concentration to see a noticeable difference.

For instance, the He-Shi Hydra Luxe Moisturising Lotion offers a medium shade with 7% DHA, suitable for people seeking a moderate tan.

Mastering the Art of Tan Application

The application method can greatly influence your tanning results. Tanning lotions and creams can be applied by hand, but for an even application, consider using an applicator mitt. The mitt works well with lotions, mousses, and gels.

 For instance, the He-Shi Hydra Luxe Moisturising Lotion or the He-Shi H2O Glow Clear Tanning Mousse could be easily applied using a mitt for a streak-free tan​. But if you prefer spray tans, consider using a brush for a flawless finish, such as the He-Shi Bronzer Brush.

Duration and Ease of Removal

Consider how long you want the tan to last and how easy it is to remove. Some products are designed to fade gradually over a week or so, while others might require a specific tan remover.

For example, if you’re looking for a long-lasting tan, consider the He-Shi Express Liquid Tan. If you prefer a temporary tan that can be washed off, the He-Shi Wonder Glow Instant Tan can be a suitable choice.

Salon Trusted’s Top Recommended Products

Here are some of Salon Trusted’s top recommended products:

1. He-Shi Hydra Luxe Moisturising Lotion: A hydrating tanning lotion that provides a medium tan, suitable for normal to dry skin types. 

 2. He-Shi Express Liquid Tan: An easy-to-apply liquid tan product offering a medium shade, ideal for all skin types seeking a longer-lasting tan. 

3. He-Shi H2O Glow – Clear Tanning Mousse: This mousse offers a medium-dark tan and is great for oily skin types. It’s also infused with hyaluronic acid for added skin hydration.

4. He-Shi Overnight Hyaluronic Skin Firming Gradual Tan Balm: For those looking for a tan that also offers skin-firming benefits, this product is an excellent choice. It’s suitable for nearly all skin types, particularly those seeking anti-aging benefits.

5. He-Shi Wonder Glow Instant Tan with an HD Finish: A quick and temporary tanning solution that offers an instant medium shade tan that can be washed off. Suitable for all skin types, dominantly those looking for a one-day tan solution.

6. He-Shi Bronzer Brush: A must-have tool for a flawless application of liquid or spray tans, ensuring an even and smooth finish.

 Remember, the key to a perfect tan lies not only in the product you choose but also in the preparation. Always exfoliate your skin before applying any tanning product to ensure an even application.

But all is not lost, we’ve curated the best products to add to your arsenal so you can revive and restore your hair back to its former glory.

However, there are certain shampoos and conditioners that when used properly, can help bring your hair back to life. The Insight Damaged Hair Restructurizing Shampoo and Conditioner can restore the shine and vitality through its specific formula creating with nourishing active ingredients with smooth the hair fibre that intensifies its brightness, whilst the conditioner is rich in vitamins and fatty acids that envelope the hair fibres and protect the hair. 

Add a Mask to Your Routine 

Although protective shampoo and conditioners are a must, adding a mask to your hair routine can really help with the battle to correct damaged hair. There are plenty to choose from depending on what you’re looking for. We recommend the Biolage Deep Treatment & Detangle Duos which help to restore moisture and can bring your damaged hair back to life. Choose from either Recover, Fiberstrong, or Hydrasource  to get your tresses back to tip top condition. 

Use Protective Styling Tools 

We all know that the overuse of heating tools like tongs, blow dryers, and straighteners can damage your hair, but you don’t have to ditch the dryer in pursuit of a healthier hair. The Babyliss Keratin Lustre Dryer is designed to protect your hair from the damaging effects of dryer heat – the key being its keratin-infused ceramic, which fills in the gaps in each hair shaft, making your hair smoother, sleeker, and easier to style.

The Best Products to Help Style Shorter Hair 


The Best Products to Help Style Shorter Hair 

The common misconception is that shorter hair is low maintenance and whilst that may be true to some extent, you shouldn’t go abandoning your barnet and cleaning out your beauty cabinets just yet if you’ve decided to get ‘the chop’. Although cutting your hair can make if feel healthier and thicker, it still needs TLC, even more so as the length between root and tip is greatly reduced, making split ends a big concern with many find that their hair seemingly ‘stops’ growing. But don’t worry, you can still make that drastic cut and keep your hair in tip-top condition even when it’s short. In our latest blog, we breakdown the best products to help style shorter hair. 

Get to Know Your Hair Type 

We’ve said it before, but we’ll say it again. It’s so important that you get a product that suited to your hair type. Drug store shampoo and conditioners are a one size fits all – but that’s not you! Whether you have straight, curly, wavy, or kinky hair – there’s a product out there made to give your hair nourishment and strengthening it deserves. Our favourite pick is the Insight range of shampoos and conditioners as they have a product for everything, from the Insight Dry Hair- Nourishing Shampoo for those with dry frizzy hair, to the Insight Sensitive- Sensitive Skin Shampoo – they’ve got you covered!  

Don’t Over Wash Your Hair 

It doesn’t matter if you have long or short hair, over washing your hair can more often than not do more harm than good. However, this is especially true for short hair as you can seriously dry out your scalp and the tips of your hair causing it to become dry, brittle, and damaged. The best way to avoid this is to wash your hair every other day or if you can, every few days. Worried about greasy roots? Don’t worry, we’ve got you. Total Results High Amplify Dry Shampoo not only helps to absorb oil, it refreshes your hair and gives it volume, perfect for those days when you just need to get going!  

Short Hair, Do Care! 

It can be really easy to just let your hair air dry, however, research has shown that brushing your hair stimulates the small blood vessels called capillaries in your scalp, increasing blood circulation and the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles. This could encourage hair growth, even strengthening the roots as the sebaceous glands in the scalp produce sebum, so by brushing your hair, the oil moves from root to tip creating a natural protective oil and conditioner. But be warned, not all hairbrushes are created equal. The Tangle Teezers range is not only made for keeping your hair tangle-free, but it offers a range of brushes for different hair types all designed to leave your hair soft and knot-free. The unique and ergonomic shape of the Tangle Teezer means it fits in your hand perfectly and glides through the hair without pulling, yanking or snagging. 

Heat Protect Your Hair 

Just because you’ve shorter hair, doesn’t mean you don’t have to protect it from the effects of heat. In fact, adding a heat protectant before blow drying, straightening, or curling short hair can help reduce the risk of breakage and split ends. We recommend the  Leyton House Heat Protect Spray – this little beauty has a formula that not only keeps unwanted frizz at bay, but it prevents breakage and is perfect for any hair type.  

Invest in the Best Styling Tools 

Another thing you can invest in are the salon quality styling tools. The Babyliss Keratin Lustre Dryer is designed to protect your hair from the damaging effects of dryer heat with its specially designed keratin-infused ceramic, which fills in the gaps in each hair shaft, making your hair smoother, sleeker, and easier to style. Or if you’re in pursuit of the perfect beachy waves, the Babyliss Tongs are one of the most raved about styling tools and are perfect for creating soft lustrous curls. With a built-in ceramic barrel and heat ready indicator system, you can create waves that are smooth and shiny every time. 

Pamper Hair with a Nourishing Mask 

Having short hair may take a lot of the hassle out of getting ready in the morning, but there’s nothing wrong with giving your hair a pamper once in a while to help prevent or stop damage. From colouring/bleaching hair, to using styling tools – your hair goes through it. One of the best ways to revitalise your hair is to invest some time into a hair mask once or every other week. Our top picks are the Biolage Deep Treatment & Detangle Duos which help to restore moisture and bring damaged hair back to life. There’s a pack for every situation, choose from either Recover, Fiberstrong, Hydrasource  or Smoothproof to keep your hair strong and healthy.

Boost Your Hair Health in Time for World Health Day


Boost Your Hair Health in Time for World Health Day

Almost all of us battle with hair damage, breakage, and frizz – from overusing heat styling tools, the harsh chemicals from hair dye, or even just everyday life like the cold, heat, humidity and pollution. World Health Day (April 7th) is not only an important occasion to focus on the health of your body but your hair as well. In fact, there’s no better time to start sharpening up on your hair care routine and get the healthiest hair of your life with Salon Trusted. Keep reading as we break down our top tips for happy, healthy hair so you’re glowing inside and out in time for World Health Day.

Turn Down the Heat!

We’ve all been there. Running out of time to get ready and you run for the hair straighteners for your quick hair fix. But if a shiny mane is what you’re after, remembering to add a good heat protectant can be a life saver! The  Leyton House Heat Protect Spray is not only a saviour when protecting your hair before heat styling, but its breakthrough formula keeps unwanted frizz at bay, prevents hair fall and breakage, and is a wonder for all hair types.

Want to avoid the heat all together? You can even opt for a heat-free hairstyle using Invisibobble’s Hair Halo – a comfortable, durable headband that won’t crease your hair and is not only a perfect pop of colour but helps to keep hair kink-free, prevents breakage whilst your hair dries naturally.

Know Your Hair Type

Don’t just settle for the first shampoo you see. Whether its straight, curly, wavy or kinky –  there are products out there made for your particular hair type which can help give your hair the love and attention it deserves. The Insight range of shampoos have a product for everything, from the Insight Dry Hair- Nourishing Shampoo for those with dry frizzy hair, to the Insight Sensitive- Sensitive Skin Shampoo – you’re sure to find one for your hair needs!

Rethink the Way You Wash Your Hair

We all like to have clean, healthy hair but sometimes over washing can do more harm than good. Shampooing everyday can seriously dry out your scalp and cause hair damage. The best way to keep your hair clean is to wash your hair every few days and if you still need a refresh use dry shampoo to absorb extra oils and not weight down the hair with excessive washing. Our favourite for a fresh fix is Total Results High Amplify Dry Shampoo which helps to absorb oil, refresh hair and give your hair volume.

Say Hello to Hair Masks

Sometimes damage is inevitable no matter how hard you try to prevent it, but not to worry.

Hair Masks are number one when it comes to battling damage and promoting healthy hair. A moisturising hair mask can not only help to condition and help with shine, but it can reverse some of the damage done to the ends of your hair where the first signs of damage shows (you know, those dreaded split ends!). Our personal favourite for damage repair are the Biolage Deep Treatment & Detangle Duos which helps to restore moisture and bring damaged hair back to its healthy state. Choose from either Recover, Fiberstrong, or Hydrasource  to get your tresses back to tip top condition.

Detangle, Don’t Rip!

Whenever you are brushing your hair be careful to not put strain on your hair strands and rip the hair from the scalp. Start in small sections, working from the ends of the hair to detangle and reduce breakage. The Tangle Teezers range are made for keeping your locks tangle free. They offer a range of brushes for different hair types all aimed at leaving your hair soft and knot free without the snagging which makes detangling easy and less painful. The unique and ergonomic shape of the Tangle Teezer fits in your hand perfectly to help glide through the hair with no pulling or yanking – leaving your hair smooth and damage free.

Incorporate some of these top tips into your daily hair care routine and say goodbye to dry frizzy hair and hello to softer and sleeker locks! For more information or more handy hips, get in touch with our friendly team today.

Our Guide to the Clean Beauty Movement


Our Guide to the Clean Beauty Movement

Clean beauty is a growing trend in the beauty industry that is predicted to be a major movement through 2022. However, the overall term is still somewhat murky because there is no industry standard for the category and so, there is room for interpretation. Here at Salon Trusted, we understand the main trait of clean beauty is that it is toxin-free; meaning there are no ingredients included that have been linked to harmful health effects.

With a growing interest in beauty that is natural and obtained from organic sources, more and more brands are producing beauty products which are cleaner for the skin, body and environment. Keep an eye out for labels that say ‘paraben, sulphate, and silicone’ free, as these are considered the three biggest toxins in beauty products today.


If you want to free yourself from toxins and chemical nasties, and introduce more eco-friendly beauty products into your life, take a look at our top 5 clean beauty products listed below.

He-Shi Rapid Edit Gift Box

This limited edition pack from He-Shi has everything you need to achieve a flawless tan in just 60 minutes. Thanks to the advanced time development accelerators, use the Rapid 1 Hour Liquid Tan to achieve a quick gorgeous glow, leave it on for 2-3 hours for a medium tan or even overnight for 8 hours to wake up with a deep bronzed look. This means you can tailor the colour of your tan depending on your personal preference, or the occasion! The pack also contains a travel size Face & Body Tanning Gel and Rapid 1 Hour Mousse, as well as a tanning mitt, all of which you can currently get your hands on for nearly half price at just £25.00. Every item in the gift box is paraben, alcohol, sulphate, palm oil and mineral oil free. If that wasn’t enough, it’s also vegan friendly, cruelty free and fully recyclable. What’re you waiting for?

Infuse My Colour Platinum Gift Bundle 2021

A favourite here at Salon Trusted HQ, Infuse My Colour is a range of professional colour enhancing products, that work to your individual hair colour to maintain, enhance, refresh, balance or treat your locks. Your faded colour no longer has to rely on harsh chemicals as this vegan and cruelty-free range has zero nasty chemicals, with no parabens, no silicones and no sulphates! There’s a whole range of colours to choose from like quartz, graphite, ruby or even platinum; perfect for maintaining the brightness of grey, white, pale blonde and highlighted hair.

Foamie Face Bar For All Skin Types Rose Oil and Vitamin B3

Foamie are on a mission to ‘Think Outside the Bottle’ with plant friendly solutions that smell incredible and leave a lasting effect on your skin and hair. What’s more, their products are free from toxins and chemical nasties. Their iconic ‘syndet’ is the base for a whole range of low-cost products from shampoo, conditioners, exfoliating shower bars and now their brand new face bars! The Rose Oil and Vitamin B3 face bar acts as a gentle cleanser, suitable for all skin types, that’ll give you the radiantly fresh look we’re all craving. It’s soap free, toxin free and is even pH optimised for an even gentler cleanse.

Biolage Keratindose Trio Pack

Many shampoos and conditioners contain sulphates that over-cleanse and dry out your scalp. By sticking to sulfate-free formulas, this will help to keep greasiness to a minimum and will cleanse your strands without stripping your scalp or hair of the oils that are needed for strong, healthy locks. All of the Biolage, by Matrix, shampoo and conditioners are sulfate-free to lock in hydration and moisture whilst leaving a refreshed and smooth finish. Our favourite? The Biolage Keratindose Pack, created with pro-keratin and silk to provide targeted reinforcement and moisture balance to over-processed hair. Regular use of the shampoo, conditioner and deep treatment will help to restore moisture and leave your hair up to 90% more nourished! Each of the 3 products in this value pack are sulphate free, p and silicone-free so be sure to snap this bundle up before it sells out!

Color Wow One Minute Transformation Cream 120ml

The experts at Colour Wow have created this anti-frizz cream to repair, nourish, protect, hydrate and style your hair. It really is a one-stop-shop! This cream can be used on dry hair, for any and all hair types, by simply applying a small amount through the ends, to leave your hair soft and silky without it feeling weighed down. Once applied, this sulphate and paraben free cream will continue to fight the frizz all day long.
