Hair Cycling

Have you heard of hair cycling?

Hair cycling is a routine that you do once every two to four weeks to improve the health of your hair and the effectiveness of the products you use. Think of it as a “reset” for your hair.

It’s a three-part routine that involves a series of shampooing, conditioning, and styling sessions. You adapt your product choices to your hair's current needs, similar to a skincare routine, and address hair issues such as dryness, breakage, and styling challenges.

Your haircare routine could use a detox every now and again.

The Three Parts Of Hair Cycling

  1. Detox and clarify cycle

  2. Repair and strengthen cycle

  3. Prep hair for styling cycle

Here’s a pretty simple way to look at your haircare routine. Think of the “detox and clarify cycle” like exfoliating your skin. Think of the “repair and strengthen cycle” like your serums and creams. Think of the “prep hair for styling cycle” like the primer and skin tightening products you apply before makeup.

You choose your skincare products based on your current specific needs at the desired result. It’s the same with haircare.
