Why choose salon colour over a cheaper box dye?
While box hair dye may seem a good and cheaper option, it can destroy healthy hair.
Consider these five hair details before picking that next box of colour off the shelf.
Ingredients
Most manufacturers of box hair colour include the lowest amount of pigment possible to control costs. Salon hair colour, on the other hand, considers individual hair quality and the necessary level of pigment to deliver superior results. Ask yourself, "Do I want a colour mixed that will strengthen and nourish my hair and make it easier to style?"
Box dyes tend to fade and can cause breakage.
Salon treatments, conversely, are formulated to protect and nourish hair during and after the colouring process.
Formulation
The developer is responsible for the chemical process that allows hair colour to be deposited into the hair shaft (the cortex ). Using the correct developer is essential for any hair colour to bond with the hair. Professional hair colour offers developers—10, 20, and 30 volumes- typically designed to protect different hair types while delivering the desired colour results. For example, a lower-volume developer better serves hair with higher porosity or existing damage. Box dye uses one developer level, producing unpredictable, unhealthy and often disappointing results.
Customisation
The perfect hairstyle and professional colour are tailored to your requirements. Customisation.
Professional colourists will take into consideration
● Skin tone and eye colour:
● Hair type and porosity:
● Existing colour and/or percentage of grey hair: (Colour-treated and Gray hairs take colour differently than other hair types).
Application
The "one-shade-fits-all" approach of box hair dye typically ends in a flat, one-dimensional head of hair. Professional stylists will formulate bespoke mixes of shade to ensure both complementary tones and depth to your colour that lasts.
**Not to mention the back of the head and ensuring it's fully covered—almost impossible to do alone! **
Cost
Corrective colour once the hair has been ruined with box dye often costs three times or more than what a standard colour service does. Why? The work involved. Multiple appointments for restorative conditioning treatments, an outgrowth of healthy hair, restyling, trimming damaged strands, preventative maintenance, and touch-ups are standard in returning hair to optimal health.
So, it's best to consider the benefits of salon-quality colour service before you buy that next box of dye.

The top FIVE important factors you need to know about IPL hair removal
Although IPL hair removal has been around since 1997, it has grown significantly for men and women of all ages as one of the most effective methods to remove unwanted hair. It can be used on almost all areas of the body where hair grows.
IPL is a safe, effective, relatively quick and easy procedure with no recovery time.
In this blog, we discuss the five most important things to consider before commencing IPL hair removal.
What is IPL hair removal, and how does it work?
IPL hair removal uses targeted beams of light energy to laser target the pigment ( melanin ) within the hair follicle and shaft. When this light energy is absorbed by the melanin, it is converted into heat. This process is called “thermolysis. “It breaks down the structure that supports the hair, safely damaging and eventually destroying the hair follicle and bulb and, in turn, inhibiting further growth.
Though 10-12 treatments are required, spaced ( depending on the area ) 4-6 weeks apart, you will start to see a distinct difference in the amount and texture of the hair that comes in, as well as much smoother, silkier skin in this area.
Say goodbye to unwanted hair permanently.
Precision and effectiveness
The IPL laser technology targets follicles without damaging the surrounding skin, making it an excellent option for treating specific areas such as the face, underarms, or bikini lines. All areas of the body are treated evenly and effectively.
Most people see a noticeable reduction in hair growth after just a few sessions, and the treatment can be customised to suit your hair type, ensuring optimal results.
Overall, saving time and money in the long term.
Laser and IPL hair removal are more costly in the short term, but they are worth the investment for you.
When you consider the time, money, and effort spent on regular waxing, shaving, or the use of messy depilatory cream, IPL hair removal is more economical in the long run.
Minimal side effects and Zero downtime.
While waxing can cause burns, is uncomfortable and messy, and shaving can lead to rashes, nicks, and razor burns, hair removal has fewer risks when performed by our professional technicians at Aspen Hair and Beauty.
The procedure is relatively quick, with minimal swelling and redness typically subsiding within 1-2 hours, making it convenient for those with busy lifestyles.
Boosts confidence and is convenient.
IPL hair removal offers unrivalled convenience, leaving your skin noticeably softer and smoother, and up to 90% hair-free.
The boost in self-esteem and confidence being on elf are the primary reasons clients opt for IPL hair removal.

Rosacea
Rosacea affects a large proportion of the population in varying degrees. Visible red veins and broken capillaries characterise it,
redness and sometimes bumpy, uneven skin.
IPL ( Intense Pulse Light treatment is a very effective noninvasive solution for managing Rosacea symptoms.
BEFORE
AFTER
In this blog, I will discuss the benefits of IPL Rosacea treatment, the procedure and cost at Aspen Hair and Beauty, and why it would be the right treatment choice for you.
So, what is IPL Rosacea treatment?
It is a noninvasive ( no needles or incisions) light-based treatment targeting the effects of Rosacea using broad-spectrum light. It reduces facial redness, spider veins, and flushing episodes and diminishes thickened or bumpy skin, revealing a smoother, more refined surface.
How does it work, though?
The technical term is photo-thermolysis, which means that the light produced in IPL is absorbed by the haemoglobin in the blood and melanin in the skin. This process safely destroys the dilated blood vessels without damaging the surrounding skin.
Over time and a course of treatment, the body's immune system clears the damaged vessels, reducing the signs of redness and visible veins.
As with all IPL skin treatments, there is a bonus in that the IPL stimulates collagen production, resulting in improved skin texture and elasticity.
The benefits of this treatment are many. It effectively targets and dilates blood vessels, reducing the redness responsible for facial flushing, a common and often embarrassing symptom for Rosacea sufferers. There is minimal downtime following treatment, with any heat and redness displayed in the area dissipating after a few hours.
Following a course, this treatment's results can last for months, with regular maintenance sessions further prolonging its benefits.
By reducing the symptoms and treating the cause of Rosacea, confidence will improve, and self-esteem levels will soar.
Now that I have decided on treatment, what do I do next?
Call or text 07984514992 to book your complimentary patch test and consultation. During this time, we can conduct a skin analysis and formulate a bespoke treatment plan to optimise your requirements.
Most clients require 4-6 treatments spaced 3 weeks apart, followed by regular maintenance appointments every 6-8 weeks.
Though no one, including medical professionals, can eliminate Rosacea, IPL is an excellent, results-driven procedure that dramatically reduces and dissipates its signs.
Why have IPL treatment rather than medication or topical creams?
IPL can target specific areas of concern, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed and ensuring safe and effective treatment.
Medication and topical creams can affect a person's physiology and sensitivity levels, especially to the sun and certain cosmetic products, causing allergic reactions.
At Aspen, we formulate a bespoke treatment especially for you to optimise your results.
IPL and TOTY not only treat Rosacea but also rejuvenate the skin. At the same time, treatment stimulates collagen production for a more even, clearer complexion and smooths out fine lines and wrinkles.
Numerous studies and years of clinical use have proven that IPL is one of the most effective treatments for Rosacea.
So, how much will treatment cost?
Aspen's treatment costs range from £55 to £ 85, depending on the area treated.
Finally, it is essential to point out that Rosacea is a chronic condition where IPL can improve, manage and contain but cannot cure the underlying cause; therefore, maintenance treatments, as mentioned previously, may be required.
