FRIZZ=NO FUN

As summer heats up, hair frizz may be a common trouble for our clients…

The #moutonsdifference experts share insight on what causes frizz, how to fight it and what products they recommend for keeping your hair looking gorgeous all summer long.

WHAT CAUSES FRIZZ?

It depends on the condition and damage of your hair. When you wear your hair down in a certain type of weather, the shape of the cuticle changes. When your hair is frizzy, it’s caused by your cuticle being wide open, and happens most commonly in humid conditions. If your hair is naturally curly and frizzy, this will only intensify in more humid weather. Hair gets frizzy when the outermost layer of the hair, called the cuticle, lifts. Frizz can affect all hair types and textures; however, dry and damaged hair is especially prone to frizz because the cuticles are already compromised. Curly hair may have more pronounced frizz.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP TO PREVENT FRIZZ?

Fighting frizz starts in the shower, so you want to make sure you’re using a sulfate-free shampoo that won’t strip the hair of its essential moisture. Hair types that are more prone to frizz tend to be dryer naturally, so hydration is important. If your hair is frizzy, leaving your conditioner in for a few minutes before rinsing can help to maximize moisture. When applying a product, be sure to evenly apply from roots to ends and use a product that helps smooth your strands while protecting the hair from heat styling tools. When blow drying the hair, use a large, round bristle brush and blow dry the hair downward while simultaneously turning the brush.

THE PRODUCTS AND A SERVICE THAT WE RECOMMEND 

Start with a shampoo like Kerastase Bain Fluidealiste which will calm the hair.  It is specifically formulated for unruly, over-processed hair. We also would recommend Kerastase Curl Manifesto for naturally curly and coiled hair.  Follow with a masque like the Kerastase produced Masque Oleo-Relax.  We also would prescribe the Oleo Relax Advanced oil if your hair is voluminous and unruly. As you begin to blow dry your hair, a great tool by Kerastase is Fluidissime. This is an exceptional anti-frizz hair care to use as you start to blow dry the hair down the hair shaft – otherwise you’ll be going against the grain, making the ends explode into even more frizziness.

Finally, we have an excellent service, a Keratin treatment, that we highly recommend for chronic frizziness. A keratin blowout is a smoothing treatment that fills the empty holes in your hair where your natural keratin used to be. It’s like filling the gaps in our hair follicles to help it become whole again.  We offer the complete Keratin Treatment which typically lasts 9-12 weeks and an Express Blowout which is created to last 6-8 weeks.

Frizziness is NOT something that you need to live with this summer!!

What Our Clients Say

As a client, I can attest to the professionalism of my stylist and the staff at the front desk. I’ve been going to this salon for almost a year now and have been more than happy with the services I have received. Carissa has done a great job on my hair extensions and subsequent hair cuts. I can take an idea to her and she always executes it profoundly. I would highly recommend Mouton Salon for your next haircut, color or any other services requested. – Priscilla T.

Kelly is the best! Perfect cut for me every time. I come back to North Texas for my haircuts with Kelly after moving out of the area several years ago. That’s a happy customer! Salon is impeccably clean, great products and friendly and helpful staff. – Sandra V

Jessica did a phenomenal job with my haircut this week and I appreciate that she listened carefully as I described the things I have/haven’t liked about previous haircuts before she got started. She was a great conversationalist too which made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I’ll be back to see her again! – Emma H.

I’ve never been disappointed by a cut at Mouton’s! Melanie did a very thorough job shaping up my hair while preserving length. Her energy and kindness are a bonus. Grateful for this salon. – Caroline A.

I am in the neighborhood and this has been favorite salon for the past 4 years. They are exceptionally good. Tresse and Dwanielle are the best hair dressers I go often and I am sure other hair dressers are equally good as well! Others are just as good as them. Love this place! – Kaviya R.

I have been a Mouton’s customer for at least 8 years and I have always been confident with the service, quality and skill of all the stylists. My daughter and I both have cuts and highlighting done at Mouton’s and although we work with regular stylist, there are times when changing schedules requires working with a new stylist. In my latest visit, the new stylist I worked with did a great job following my regular color direction and in addition she gave me some great tips on how to better define curls during air drying. It is great to have confidence in a location with owners who inspire their employees to constantly provide excellent service. – Valerie F.

I have trusted Ashley with my hair care for a number of years. She is an expert at making my fine, thin hair look great with current, short hair style trends. Yesterday, with impending snow storm predicted for the day of my appointment, the salon called and said Ashley would see me that day so I could get in before the storm arrived. I appreciated this so much!! Rescheduling can be tough and Ashley was so kind to work me in ahead of the storm. I love everything about Mouton’s!! Their heart is definitely for their clients. – Peggy C.

VERY clean, professional salon that pays attention to all the details. What a great experience from the environment, management, and cosmetologists. Helena does a fabulous job, professional, sweet and thorough. I even got a discount for referring my friend! THE BEST! – Sandra A.
