Over the last couple months, Ottawa has done a truly incredible job of social distancing and doing our part to keep the community safe. We applaud these wonderful efforts we’ve all made, but also understand that staying home means anyone with coloured hair or highlights is experiencing some bmajor grow-out by now.
At Fernandino, we care deeply about you and your hair health. That’s why we’ve compiled some useful hair info, tips, and tricks to get you through this stay-at-home period until we can see you all again.
- Feel like you’re losing some more strands that usual due to COVID-19 stress and general anxiety? Take comfort in knowing that you don’t have anything to worry about. Losing 100 to 150 strands of hair a day is actually perfectly normal – even without a pandemic going on. So don’t be alarmed if you see a few more hairs in your shower drain than usual.
- Not sure whether it’s better to comb your hair when it’s wet or dry? The answer is definitely the latter. This is because wet hair is more fragile and prone to damaging breakage. To maintain your locks as best as possible, we suggest using a broad-toothed comb and gently combing through dry hair.
- Getting desperate to the point that you’re thinking of giving yourself a haircut? Only do this unless you’re absolutely confident in your abilities – we’ve heard way too many nightmare stores of DIY haircuts gone wrong.
Most of all, do what makes you happy during this trying time. Staying healthy and keeping your spirits up are of utmost importance, so we hope you all take care of yourselves are kind to one another.
Be well, Ottawa.
Love,
Fernandino
