Denver dry climate hair care starts with what you notice in your own hair. Perhaps your ends feel rough after styling, your scalp gets oily before the lengths need a wash, or your blonde looks warmer than it did at your last appointment. Bring those details to your colourist. They help us talk about the routine and services that may suit you.
At Fluff in LoDo, your colour history and the way you care for your hair are part of planning an appointment. Here are a few useful places to start before changing products or booking your next colour service.
Start with your scalp and your routine
Choose wash days around how your scalp feels, how quickly your hair gets oily and what your week involves. Fine hair and an oily scalp may need a different schedule from dry or curly hair. Focus shampoo on the scalp and use conditioner after washing. These basics follow the American Academy of Dermatology’s hair care guidance.
Tell your stylist what you wash with, how often you use it and where your hair feels different. Bring photos of the labels if you are unsure of the product names. That gives us something specific to discuss, including whether a conditioner or mask fits the routine you already have.
Look at how you style your hair
If you use hot tools, choose a lower heat setting and use a heat protection product as directed. Be gentle when detangling. If you are repeating several passes over the same section, ask your stylist to walk through your technique.
It helps to describe an ordinary morning. Do you dry from wet, refresh yesterday’s blowout or curl your hair before work? Tell us how much time you want to spend styling, so the cut, colour plan and care advice fit that routine.
Plan the colour maintenance you need
Tell your colourist whether you are noticing a change in tone, more visible roots, roughness through the ends or a combination of concerns. Ask which appointment addresses what you are seeing and which finishing services it includes.
For balayage at Fluff, explore the artists’ results and talk through the brightness, contrast and upkeep you want. A gloss, root work and a fuller colour appointment involve different work. Your artist can explain which options belong in your plan and when to consider them.
If you are unsure where to start, our colour service guide introduces the main options. You can also discuss salon treatments and home care at your visit.
Give extensions their own care plan
If you wear extensions, bring the instructions for your chosen hair and attachment method into the conversation. Ask your extension artist about washing, brushing, products and the appointments needed to maintain the installation.
Tell us if the hair has become harder to detangle or the attachments feel different. Include the date of your last maintenance visit. Our extension team can help you discuss the next step for your method.
Bring these details to your next appointment
- The shampoo, conditioner and styling products you currently use.
- Your usual washing and heat styling routine.
- The date of your last colour or extension appointment.
- A photo showing the tone or finish you want to discuss.
- Any changes in your routine, including swimming or more time outdoors.
For colour, explore Tadas’s balayage and AirTouch work or Hannah’s blonding and dimensional colour. Veronica works with colour and extensions. Tadas and Hannah do not currently install extensions.
Common questions
How often should I wash my hair in Denver?
Choose your wash schedule around your hair type, scalp and how quickly your hair becomes dirty or oily. Ask your stylist to help you adjust the routine you already use.
Does dry feeling hair mean I need another colour service?
Tell your colourist whether the concern is the tone, the feel of your hair or both. An assessment helps decide whether to discuss home care, a treatment, a colour refresh or a different appointment.
Do hair extensions need the same care as my own hair?
Follow the instructions for your chosen extension hair and attachment method. Your extension artist can explain washing, brushing, product use and the maintenance appointments your installation needs.
