In general, unopened hair care products have a shelf life of three years. However, in the case of non-aerosol and non-spray products this drops to 18 months once the product has been opened. This is because the usual gels, creams, pomades and such that are applied to the hair come in contact with the skin and therefore become contaminated by bacteria and moisture which […]

The History of Balayage By Sheila Venancia This method of coloring emerged in Paris in the 1970’s; the name is French for “to sweep,” a reference to the way in which the color is applied.
