Our products actualise alchemy but contrary to popular belief, healthy hair also extends to the tools you use. You know the sensible steps like using low or no heat on your hair, not straightening wet hair, using heat protectant and more - but while we are on our haircare exodus together, lets finetune it to perfection. Incorporating efficient tools into your routine can enhance the performance of your syrups, so for a well-rounded routine, consider implementing these practises:
1. Shampoo Scalp Brush
For many of our users' weekly hair oiling, they’re inclined to use one syrup for their scalp and another for their lengths and ends. Our Shampoo Scalp Brush pairs especially well with the pre-wash syrup you opt for on your scalp. Spend 5 minutes deeply massaging with your syrup of choice to unlock the full potential of the syrup and enhance product absorption. After being deeply infiltrated to your scalp, strengthen roots, stimulate hair growth and help remove buildup of old cells leading to a flaky scalp through a gentle exfoliation. This simple act of self-care also helps to balance oil production.
The act of massaging itself is not only our favoured tranquil step at the hairdressers but encourages stimulation of pressure points in the head and neck to increase blood circulation for scalp health, reduce stress and remedy mood - even alleviating tension headaches for a better night's sleep.
2. Sectioning Clip
An essential in any stylists toolkit, use our beginner-friendly Sectioning Clips during your hair oiling ritual to dexterously discipline thick hair and ensure balanced coverage of the product on the scalp to achieve desired results. These heavy-duty clips are designed to securely reserve hair without denting or slipping.
3. Microfibre Hair Towel
The Microfibre Hair Towel is sneaking into mainstream consciousness but is still so severely underrated in comparison to its traditional cotton towel companion. With densely packed towelling fibres, the towel instantly minimises frizz and helps tame the maine with a tender approach - especially necessary if you have curly or delicate hair prone to breakage and splintering. The towel cuts the drying process with the microfibre’s high absorbency taking away the urgency for heat damage from blow dryers. Consider them eco-friendly with prolonged durability that can withstand periodic washing. Being lightweight and compact, they make the archetypal travel companion for drying hair on the go.
4. Flexi Brush
The long-awaited restock of our Flexi-Brush is finally here, nicknamed by the team at the office ‘The Hairbrush of Gods’. You may have been given the advice to never brush wet hair, but this magic brush makes it doable. Made from eco-friendly and natural wheat straw biomass, the intricate retracting loop design and double curve makes the brush uniquely flexible with an ergonomic design, curving to the contours of your scalp - great for a head massage. The flexible soft pin bristles glide through knots and tangles protecting your hair from breakage without any mechanism of painful tugging, fluidly brushing into the ends for amplified softness and shine. Defying what was rumoured the impossible, use it on wet or dry hair for painless, guaranteed to glide brushing - no matter how long it's been since you brushed it last, a promise from us here at Hair Syrup.
5. Bamboo Hair Brush
The baby sister of our famous Flexi Brush is our Bamboo Hair Brush. Bamboo is a fast-growing renewable resource, an environmentally-friendly resource to plastic as a durable, long-lasting purchase. This product is generally suitable for all hair types; from 1A to 4C but we place this on the frontline for those with sensitive scalps.
Much like the shampoo scalp brush, you can administer this brush to stimulate scalp blood circulation through a gentle massage. The bamboo brush experience offers a gentle detangling experience as bamboo bristles are smoothly rounded, reducing snagging during brushing. Through the materials natural properties, it relieves static and frizz for ameliorated shine by distributing natural oils from the scalp to ends.
6. Claw Clip
As seen on your favourite 90’s romcom lead girl, recreating the Claw Clip style only gets better when you hear about the benefits it has for your hair. This stylish and versatile alternative to hair ties lightly but securely holds hair away from your face without causing tension, the common lead to breakage over time. All in all, making for a convenient option for everyday styling.
7. Satin Scrunchie
While the obvious styling benefits of scrunchies are a given, there is a science to the scrunchie. The fabric covering the scrunchie acts to minimise pressure and friction on the hair, again leading to reduced breakage. Our Satin Branded Scrunchie is composed of a satin material, being less absorbent than cotton, this can help retain the hair's natural moisture to prevent unwanted dryness and frizz. The design also means less tension-related headaches typically seen in a traditional bobble as the scrunchie distributes pressure evenly. This softer approach to the up-do reduces any obnoxious kinks. Find your fellow Hair Syrup crowd in our branded scrunchies coming in an array of pastel shades.
8. Satin Pillowcase
Out of our daily 24 hours, we spend a large portion of that time in bed. Firstly, why not elevate your everyday lifestyle with some small luxuries? Equally, as our hair spends a portion of its life in bed, it will naturally react to that environment. Opting for a Satin Pillowcase reduces friction - the root of many skin and haircare issues. The reduction in friction correlates to a decline in creases, breakage, frizz and static which would otherwise leave you with a case of bedhead.
Like the scrunchie, the material allows for natural moisture retention leading to hydrated hair and skin. Satin’s gentle composition protects the hair cuticles from damage and helps prevent split ends. It can also be considered anti-acne and anti-wrinkle through stopping those pesky pillow creases on your face. Moreover, the pillow ensures your expensive overnight creams and serums are locked in to work overtime overnight, and will not transfer onto your pillow.
The luxurious experience of sleeping with this temperature-regulating, naturally-cooling pillowcase will leave you with manageable hair so silky you won't want to go back to your old ways - you’ll be packing this pillowcase in your luggage for the foreseeable for guaranteed undisturbed, restful sleep.
9. Satin Sleep Cap
The second half of the satin pillowcase is the Satin Sleep Cap in terms of its benefits. Unlike other fibres, this is a breathable option. With this particular product, the satin sleep cap can help protect and maintain your hairstyles - especially for those with curly hair by keeping the curls intact and preventing frizz forming overnight. That being said, this is suitable for all hair styles to prevent moisture loss with a naturally less absorbent fabric composition. While satin itself is generally easier to care for and keep stain-free than silk.
Embrace these haircare luxuries and shop our arcane selects to ensure your routine is optimised to its full potential.
