To cultivate a healthy relationship with your hair care professional, don’t be afraid to open-up. It may be difficult at first, but begin with hair-related questions and concerns, and branch out from there. After a few visits, you will undoubtedly feel more comfortable, and will be better able to express what you want from your visit. And remember, your Salon True stylist is committed to making you feel good – so share how you are feeling and what would best serve you each and every visit.

As you build trust, know that your stylist will know what haircut, hair color and overall look will work best for your lifestyle. And, as they come to know your personality, they will surely be able to read when you are satisfied or displeased with your hair – so be open and honest with them to ensure your happiness with the end result.

Though your trusted stylist may become a friend, know that they are also a professional who is there to help you define and maintain your personal style.  Here at Salon True, our goal is to make sure that you leave looking and feeling great!

Well, the issue may not your hair — it might be the way you wash it. 

Before getting in the shower, brush your hair to work out knots and remove loose strands. In the shower, remember to shampoo your scalp. If there seems to be little lather, repeat the process. As you massage the shampoo into your scalp and hair, put your head under the water to increase the suds, and then rinse them out completely.

Next, condition only the ends of your hair. If you feel like you need extra conditioning, comb it through while in the shower. With the conditioner still in your hair, wash your face and body and shave your legs, then rinse it out.

Lastly, dry off and squeeze the excess water out of your hair. When you get out of the shower, you can spray your strands with leave-in conditioner or just comb your hair and wrap it in a towel.

Show your locks some love with proper washing, and they’ll love you back!

Maybe you’re over 40. Or you just had a baby. Chances are you’re wondering if you’re too old for long hair.

The answer is no.

There are no rules for membership in the long hair club! Some teens look great with short hair, while your grandmother might benefit from growing it out. When a length looks good on you, nothing else matters.

It’s hard to be objective about yourself, though, so find a trustworthy stylist and ask their opinion. If you crave a change, consider trying highlights or a new style. In 10^th grade I gave myself horrendous bangs, but now, at 33, I love them.

Love your long hair? Keep it! Remember that little changes can transform your look.

All the best to you and your family,

Brian, Tamera, and the Salon True Team

Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow.
~Edward Sandford Martin

At this time of year, we pause to give thanks and reflect on the things that are most important to us.

We give thanks to you, our clients and friends, whose loyalty is so important to our success. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve you now and for years to come. Once again, thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Sincerely,

Tis the Season to Give

Please help Salon True help those less fortunate in our community. We will be collecting new, unwrapped toys from now until December 13 for the Toys-for-Tots foundation. The objectives of Toys for Tots are to help less fortunate children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of one of our nation’s most valuable resources – our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; and to contribute to better communities in the future.

Thanks so much for your support!

Join us on Friday, December 9, for our Holiday Hair & Make-Up Party.

The event starts at 6:00. A $30 deposit reserves a spot for a complimentary mini makeover and is credited toward any product purchase. You do not need an appointment to attend, but it is required to receive the complimentary mini makeover. Book now before it’s too late. Bring one new, unwrapped toy to donate to the Toys-for-Tots foundation and receive 25% off of your retail product purchase.

We will also be showcasing jewelry from Gwen’s Gems. Don’t miss your chance to purchase high end jewelry at wholesale prices. For the same price of costume jewelry, you can purchase fine, exotic and rare jewelry in all price ranges.

“Let us remember that, as much has been given us, much will be expected from us, and that true homage comes from the heart as well as from the lips, and shows itself in deeds.” ~Theodore Roosevelt

Dear Friends,

It is at this time of year when we take time to reflect and give thanks for the bounty of our lives. Thanksgiving is also a great time to remember those who have less. To that effect, Salon True will be holding a food drive from now through Tuesday, November 22nd. All donations collected will go the the Ardmore Food Pantry run by St. Mary’s Episcopal Church in Ardmore. For the past several years, St. Mary’s has had a food pantry which is staffed by parish and community volunteers. Food preparation ideas and simple, healthy recipes are included with the food items each recipient receives. In addition, volunteers provide information and assistance to those who may not know if they are eligible for food stamps, (SNAP -Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) or the WIC program (Women, Infant and Children Assistance). Working with area community groups and congregations of all faiths is vital to the Food Pantry’s success.

Hunger is a real but often hidden problem in our community. Around the Delaware Valley more and more people are seeking help from food banks, shelters and emergency kitchens due to loss of employment, reduction in work hours, rising food costs and/or elimination of benefits. The USDA reports that in the United States more than 36.2 million people, including 12.4 million children live in “food insecure” households – meaning they don’t have dependable, consistent access to adequate amounts of nutritious foods to maintain good health. Philabundance estimates that 900,000 people in the Delaware Valley are at risk of hunger and that number continues to grow.
