Benefits Of Using Professional Salon Products

By Alex D White


Drugstore products are usually preferred to professional salon products. This is because in the market, the drugstore products are far cheaper and due to the economical nature of humans, they tend to buy them a lot. However, professionals argue that it is better to spend a little more on the professional salon products as they can make a big difference in comparison to the drugstore products. They say this in light of the many advantages they pose.

They have quality ingredients as compared to drugstore products. They usually have better formulations, optimum mixture of surfactants, moisturizers and conditioners. Drugstore products have relatively inferior ingredients and since they lack in quality, they compensate with cheaper prices. Thus, professional salon products have the upper hand when it comes to quality making it a better option.

Another advantage is that professional products have relatively high concentration of ingredients. This improves performance of the product and thus it is able to offer good results. Drugstore products however, contain low concentration of ingredients. This means one has to use a lot of them at any time, which can be expensive in the end. Therefore products from salons have can be used in small amounts due to their high concentration and thus can last longer.

Lathering is very important when it come to the cleaning and treatment of hair. Surfactants and cleaning agents are responsible for the lathering process. They are however, corrosive if given in high amounts. Salon-based products formulate these ingredients to be far gentler and thus reduce the risk of being burnt on the scalp.

Moisturizer and conditioners of shampoos have a higher concentration of protein in them. This allows agents to easily penetrate the hair or scalp. More constituents of this means that people will use less of the product to effectively treat and clean their hair. Compared to a drugstore product, they will be a cheaper alternative in the end and will still produce quality results.

An ingenious idea of advertisements has been used by drugstore products. They lead the customers to believe that certain properties like smell and color raise the quality of the products. These properties are however, not relevant to the cleaning process at all and are only used to serve promotion purposes. Professional salon-products are made for the purpose of cleaning and treating hair and thus have all the necessary ingredients that do the actual cleaning.

Buying from salons is an advantage in itself. This is because one gets to meet with hair professionals. They are able to tell you what are the best products to buy and how you should use them. In addition, they give you invaluable information about your hair and how to take care of it. Drugstores do not have this luxury as they only sell you the product without giving any advice. You can also book appointments with the hair professionals and spend time consulting them.

Ammonium laurel sulfate, which is common in most drugstore products, is a very harsh surfactant as it strips natural oils in the hair that are natural to the scalp. Oil glands are thus overworked and it leads to buildup of oils that gives the hair a greasy appearance. Products from salons work efficiently to remove excess oils and keep only the good oils so that the hair remains healthy.
