Luxury Hair Shouldn’t Just Last for a Day—Here’s How to Keep It Flawless
There’s nothing better than that fresh-from-the-salon feeling—hair that looks and feels incredible, full of life, movement, and shine. But what happens a few days later? For many women, that perfect salon finish feels like it disappears too fast.
At Obsessions Salon in Ramsgate, we believe luxury hair should be effortless every single day, not just on the day of your appointment. With the right techniques and products, you can keep that salon-quality look going for weeks. Here’s how.
1. Upgrade Your Shampoo & Conditioner—It’s an Investment, Not an Expense
Your shampoo could be undoing all the work we put into your hair at the salon. Many high-street shampoos contain sulfates, silicones, and other cheap ingredients that strip away natural oils, dulling your colour and drying out your hair. The right professional products will keep your hair looking and feeling fresh for longer while also improving its long-term health.
Salon tip: Always rinse your hair with lukewarm or cool water. Hot water opens the hair cuticle, making colour fade faster and hair more prone to frizz.
2. Sleep Like a VIP: Silk Pillowcases & Overnight Hair Care
What you sleep on makes a difference. Cotton pillowcases absorb moisture from your hair and create friction, leading to frizz, tangles, and breakage. A silk pillowcase allows your hair to glide over the surface, keeping it smoother and healthier while you sleep.
How to wake up with better hair:
- Swap to a silk pillowcase
- Apply a few drops of Oil before bed for extra nourishment
- Sleep with a loose braid or a silk scrunchie to prevent kinks and tangles
Salon tip: If you’ve had a professional blow-dry, a silk pillowcase will help it last longer, while tying your hair up loosely at night stops it from losing volume.
3. Extend Your Blow-Dry with the Right Products
A professional blow-dry shouldn’t last just one day. With the right care, you can keep that fresh, bouncy look for up to a week. The key is avoiding unnecessary washing and using lightweight products to keep it refreshed without making it heavy or greasy.
How to make your blow-dry last:
- Day 1-2: Leave your hair alone and let the natural oils settle
- Day 3: Refresh the roots with a Fresh Dry Shampoo
- Day 4-5: Add volume with a Volume Spray
- Day 6+: Restyle into soft waves or a chic ponytail
Salon tip: The more you touch your hair, the faster it loses volume and shine. Keep your hands off it as much as possible.
4. Book a Glossing or Hydration Treatment Between Appointments
If you’ve invested in a luxury cut or colour, one of the best ways to keep it looking flawless is with a quick in-salon treatment between appointments. These treatments keep hair strong, shiny, and hydrated, helping your colour last longer and your hair stay in better condition.
What we recommend:
- For frizz & hydration: Kérastase Fusio-Dose Treatment for instant smoothness
- For colour vibrancy: Chroma Absolu Glossing Ritual for high-shine colour protection
- For strength & repair: Olaplex Bond Repair Treatment to rebuild damaged hair
Salon tip: These treatments only take about 30 minutes but can make your hair look like it’s just been freshly coloured or cut all over again.
5. Never Skip Regular Trims—Precision Cuts Last Longer
The secret to effortless, salon-perfect hair every day? A precision haircut that holds its shape and grows out beautifully. A high-quality cut will naturally fall into place, making styling easier and reducing the need for constant maintenance.
Why regular trims matter:
- Precision shaping means your cut lasts longer
- Less maintenance and less time spent styling
- Healthier hair that grows without split ends slowing it down
Salon tip: Book your trims every 6-8 weeks to maintain the shape and health of your cut, especially if your hair is coloured or long.
