Great hair could be as easy using the right conditioner.

Did you know that the secret to great hair could be as simple as conditioning it?  Yes, the hair conditioner that you use can make all the difference in maintaining your hair.. The question is, which one do you choose?  There are so many to choose from, there are daily conditioners such as Enhance or Cashmere by Sudzz FX (Donte's of New York), there are many heat protecting leave in conditioners such as Qshi Leave in conditioner (Donte's of New York) or 444 Final Protection Spray (Donte's of New York).  Then there are deep conditioners such as Sudzz FX Moxee (Donte's of New York) and finally there are the Keratin treatments which are provided to you by a licensed cosmetologist (Donte's of New York).  The truth is all conditioners smooth the cuticle, soften hair, add shine and restore moisture.  By following these steps, you too can have the smooth, shiny, healthy hair you always dreamed of.

1.  Use conditioner even when you skip shampoo-Use of a daily conditioner can add a layer of protection that will guard your hair against heavy product use, hot tools or anything else that may be effecting the health of your hair.
2.  Be wary of your hair's texture-A lot of people think that using a conditioner will only flatten their hair. The truth is, they are using the wrong conditioner.  The best way to decide which conditioner is right for you, is to be sure to pick the one that matches your texture.  For example at Donte's of New York, we recommend to all of our clients with finer hair either the Hair Support restructuring conditioner, the Sudzz FX Enhance or the Sudzz FX Aquafix.  These products condition your hair, provide shine and do not weigh down your hair.  For thicker or curly hair we recommend Sudzz FX Moxee as it provides the moisture and shine that thicker and curly hair needs.
3. Skip conditioning your roots-If you are looking for volume, if your scalp gets oily quickly, or you are wearing hair extensions by Donte's of New York, avoid using a moisturizer in your root area. Hair is conditioned at the roots on its own by the natural oils from your scalp.  When applying your daily conditoner, it is important that you start at the ends and run the remaining conditioner through the rest of your hair, avoiding the first 2 inches of your scalp.  Leave it on for a few minutes and rinse.
4. Leave in Conditioners-At Donte's of New York, we always stress the importance of using a leave in condtioner. In Arizona, we are faced with hot dry days and water that is very hard. Applying this extra layer of moisture, such as Qshi Leave in Conditioner or the 444 Final Protection spray will provide the moisture our desert hair needs.  
5. Keratin Treatment at Donte's of New York-Donte's of New York is proud to provide our Keratin Treatment service. This treatment is chemical and damage free. It will provide up to 4 months of smooth, shiny hair.

Dealing with temporary hair loss

Permanent hair loss happens to most of us due to genetics,  however,  for some hair loss may be temporary.  Things like anxiety and stress, poor nutrition, overuse of hot tools or chemicals or taking certain medications can all cause breakage and hair loss.

Keeping on top of your nutrition is key. Taking supplements like multi vitamins with iron will help to keep your hair healthy. While having a healthy diet filled with fruits, vegetables and grains will also keep your hair looking its best. 

Exercise is also a big factor when taking care of your hair.  Keeping yourself fit helps to keep your hair looking great too because it reduces stress and anxiety. 

Making sure not to use hot tools on a daily basis is a great idea. Try using flat irons or your hair dryer sparingly, maybe 2-3 times per week at most. 

Finally for some, there may not be any choice when it comes to the medications we take due to different ailments.  Sadly medications are one of the leading reasons people experience temporary and in some cases permanent hair loss.  Talk to your doctor before going on any medications and do your research to find out if hair loss is a side effect.

Alopecia, types and how to help it.

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease that results in hair loss and nearly 2% of the population is effected by it.  

There are 3 types of Alopecia:

Alopecia Areata-When hair falls out from the scalp and leaves visible patches of baldness.

Alopecia Totalis-When there is a total loss of hair on the scalp.

Alopecia Universalis-Hair loss of the entire body.

Alopecia and other autoimmune diseases are hard for medical professionals to figure out. It is unknown in most cases why the body's immune system begins to attacks itself. Alopecia is not contagious.  At this time, there is no cure for Alopecia. In all forms of Alopecia, the hair follicles remain alive and hair re-growth may occur.  Some of the available medical treatments are, corticosteroids, products that contain minoxidil such as Rogaine and topical immunotherapy.

Melanoma risk factors when experiencing hair loss

Melanoma can effect anyone and for those of us experiencing hair loss our risks can be greater.  The more risk factors you have, the more likely you are to get Melanoma.  The following are the risk factors you need to know:


Having a lot of moles
If you have a lot of moles, particularly large ones, keeping track of them with a Dermatologist is very important.

Being an over 50 white male
Men who are over 50 and are of Caucasian descent tend to have a higher risk of getting Melanoma then their non-white counterparts.  Paying particular attention to the back and to the scalp is key. At Donte's of New York,  we work closely with our client's scalps, and in doing so, we have been able to help identify many suspicious moles on our customers scalps. Although  they are not always happy to get this news, they are always grateful to have them removed before they turn into something much worse. 

Spending a lot of time in the sunlight
Although the sun's rays helps with our vitamin D intake, it is important to know that the sunlight is still carcinogenic to our skin.  The more you burn the higher your risk of developing melanoma.

Genetics
Melanomas usually run in families.  If you know that a great deal of your family members have been treated for Melanoma, it should be a priority for you to visit with a Dermatologist on a regular basis to make sure that your skin is being watched.

What makes Donte's of New York's hair extensions stand out from the rest?

Why are the hair extensions at Donte's of New York different?  We have spent years, (over 50 to be exact) to find the right type of hair and the right type of extensions for our clients. 

Hair quality is extremely important when wearing hair extensions. You don't want hair that is going to knot or shed. You want hair that is shiny and full of life.  At Donte's of New York we use the highest quality hair extensions around, non tangling, non shedding and most of all gorgeous. 

The application of your hair extensions is also very important. You want to have your extensions applied in such a way so that there is no lasting damage done to your hair.  Gluing, braiding and sewing will only leave your hair with damage and even hair loss. At Donte's of New York our extensions are applied by our highly trained (by Donte himself) technicians in ways that will allow your hair to grow in a healthy way, leaving you with a beautiful head of hair.
