Hair Facts

Hair has been important to us from the beginning of time. Let's find out more about hair and it's history: 

377-353 B.C.- During the Persian reign of ruler Mausolus, he required his subjects to shave their heads and purchase wigs from him to raise money for the local treasury.

Did you know that Elizabeth the first owned over 80 red wigs?  Wow!

King Louis XIII began losing his hair when he was in his 20's and wore a wig.

There are an average number of 100,000 hairs on a human head.

I heard a hair rumor...

Hair is a complex thing, there are so  many ideas of what we can and cannot do.  Donte's of New York wants to help you figure out which of these myths to believe or not to believe. 

Myth #1:

Yanking out gray hair will cause more hair to grown in it's place...

FALSE  Hair follicles are genetically determined and pulling a gray or any other color hair out will not cause more hairs to grown in it's place.  However, it is not recommended that you pull any hairs out as doing so repeatedly can damage the root and stop the hair follicle from functioning properly. 

Myth #2:

Wearing your hair back tight every day can cause bald spots...

TRUE  Daily tension on the hair such as braids or tight ponytails, can cause tract alopecia, a form of hair loss that can be prevented by avoiding these stressful styles. Instead, opt for loose or low ponytails and headbands to keep your hair away from your face.

Myth #3:

If you use the same shampoo daily, it will eventually stop working...

FALSE  Sometimes it does seem as if your shampoo is no longer working for you as well as it first did when you began using it. However it really does not. What does occur is that your hair is experiencing build up from the use of conditioners and styling products, this will leave your hair less voluminous than when you began to use that wonderful new shampoo.  We recommend you do rotate your shampoos and use a clarifying shampoo at least once a week, such as Suddz FX Nyrvana or if you are experiencing hair loss our Hair Support line of shampoos, will clean out that hair follicle allowing new hair to grow in. 

Myth #4:

Cold rinsing your hair will lead to a better shine...

TRUE  When hair is rinsed under cold water, it causes the cuticle to open up leaving hair looking shinier and healthier.  Once the hair dries though, the shiny look will disappear unless you use a silicone based product when the hair is still wet, such as Suddz FX Zenith, then blowdry with a nozzle attachment and enjoy your beautiful shiny hair all day long. 

Donte's of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Arizona, offering hair loss solutions to men and women such as Hair Replacement, Hair Extensions, Wigs, Micropoint Solutions, Colors, Haircuts, Non Damaging Keratin Treatments and eyelash extensions. We know hair loss is difficult, you are not alone...call Donte's of New York today, so that we can help you get back that hair of head everyone can be envious os.

Proper care for your hair

Wearing a hairsystem, hairpiece or wig is easier than ever with all of the great products that have been created specifically for you. 

Whether you decide to wear human or synthetic hair, the common goal is to keep your hair looking natural and beautiful for a long time.  One of the best things you can do is to give your hair a rest. This means taking it off each night or at least a few times a week.  Wearing your hair to bed each night can cause friction so taking it off when you sleep will actually prolong the wear of your hair. This will in the end keep your hair looking shiny and not dull from rubbing against your pillow.

Use products that are made especially for hairsystems or wigs, such as the Qshi line of hair products. These products are specifically made to keep your hair looking great and come in a variety of options-conditioners, shampoos, mousse, hairspray, gel, etc...

Finally, making sure to treat your hair gently is definitely key to keeping your hair looking it's best. Try to not scrub your hair when washing it and avoid rubbing it to dry it. Air drying your hair is always the best option and one we strongly recommend. 

Do you want your hair to be gorgeous and you just do not know what to do?  Why not consult with one of the best in the business at Donte's of New York. Donte has been in the business for over 50 years and can provide you with a hair solution that looks natural and most important, that you love. Call us today for a FREE consultation:  480-483-8800 or visit us on the web to find out how you can have a head of hair that all will admire:  www.dontes.com

Hair ages as we do

Did you know that your hair ages just as we do?  Yes, each year the diameter of our hair strands gets thinner and we have fewer hairs that grow in.  Along with this natural thinning process, the wear and tear that we have put on our hair after years of coloring, using chemicals and styling with heat, our hair just seems to look less and less like it used to. 

What can you do to help slow down this aging process?  Try to use less heat on your hair or if you must use heat, use a lower setting.  If you color your hair, try to push out your coloring sessions to a longer time frame or use a rinse instead. 

If you find that your hair is at a point where you might need some additional help to get the fullness you desire, give us a call at Donte's of New York. At Donte's of New York, we offer many ways that we can help you get back the beautiful, full hair that you love. Whether you require a little bit or a lot of hair added, Donte's of New York, can offer you many options that will allow your hair to look gorgeous and natural, just as if it were your own. 

We know that hair loss is hard, you are not alone, please give Donte's of New York a call today to find out how we can provide you with a beautiful, natural head of hair that can make you feel like you again.  Call today for your FREE consultation:  480-483-8800 or visit us on the web at:  www.dontes.com

Some Hair Facts



An average head of hair has 100,000 hairs, especially if you are a brunette or have black hair. If you are a redhead you have a little less at 80,000 and if you are a true blonde you will have the most at 120,000 hairs.

At a single time, only 90% of your hair is growing.

It is normal to lose on average about 100 hairs per day.

Before you can tell that you are experiencing hair loss you would have to lose at least 50% of your natural hair.

By the age of 50, more than 50% of men will experience male pattern baldness.

By menopause, more than 40% of women will have female pattern baldness.

Remy Hair Extensions Vs. Virgin Hair Extensions, which one is better?

Visually one cannot tell the difference between Remy Human Hair and Virgin Human Hair extensions but when looking for one or the other, here are some things to know.

Remy Human Hair Extensions:  All of the hairs that make up the extension are running in the same direction, thus allowing the hair to flow freely and not tangle. 

Virgin Human Hair Extensions:  The hair is unprocessed and the cuticle may be running in opposite directions which can cause the hair to knot up if not handles properly. 

Donte's of New York is your hair replacement specialist, offering hair loss solutions for both men and women, which include hair pieces, hair extensions, wigs and Micropoint Solutions.

Some Breast Cancer facts


The most commonly diagnosed breast cancer is called Ductal Carcinoma (starts in the ducts that move breast milk to the nipple) and the second most diagnosed is ...
Lobular Carcinoma (the part of the breast that produces milk).
Breast Cancer may be invasive-spread from the milk ducts or lobules to other breast tissue or non-invasive-not yet invaded other parts of the breast tissue.

There are several tests to identify breast cancer:

Mammograms-help screen and identify breast lumps
MRI's-Better identify breast lump and evaluate an abnormal change on a mammogram.
Ultrasound-Shows whether the lump is solid or fluid filled
Biopsy-Studies the pathology of the tissue
CT or Pet Scans-Used to identify if the cancer has spread.

Breast cancer is a devestating disease and once diagnosed can be very scary. Chemotherapy, although saves lives, can cause havoc with your body such as lethargy, nausea and hair loss. At Donte's of New York, we understand how losing your hair can effect you. If you are diagnosed with breast cancer and know that you will need Chemotherapy, we are here to help you get through this difficult time. Donte's of New York offers wigs that are made especially for you with bases that are soft and have a specially patented strip that will keep the wig securely attached.

Breast cancer and how it affects your hair

Getting diagnosed with breast cancer is heart breaking and life changing.  Patients that undergo a certain type of chemotherapy, can experience hair loss which can be devastating.

If you are someone who is told that hair loss will be a side effect of your chemotherapy, we suggest you meet with a professional who can offer you the right options for your hair loss.  A knowledgeable professional will be able to help you to select a wig that suits you and can mimic how you looked before the chemotherapy treatments. 

It is best to visit a hair professional prior to your treatments as most people start to experience hair loss within the 1st -2nd rounds of chemotherapy. Having a wig to transition to that you feel great in, will help to make your road to recovery so much easier. 

Donte's of New York has over 50 years of experience in the hair loss treatment field, offering non surgical solutions to both men and women to help you get back your hair to the way you want it to look...natural and beautiful.  Call us today for your FREE consultation or visit us on the web:  www.dontes.com to find out more.

Keeping your hair strong and healthy

Hair is built to be strong but over time the layers begin to wear down from the environment, heat and styling.  So, how strong is your hair?  Take this test to find out.

Take a single strand of hair and tug on it.  If your hair is strong it should stretch about 30% of it's length and spring back.  If you find that your hair breaks, or does not bounce back, it's time to get your hair strengthened up. 

How does someone strengthen hair that is weak, damaged or brittle? There are many steps to do this and Donte's of New York, the Premier Hair Loss Treatment Center of Scottsdale, can help you achieve a stronger,  fuller head of hair.  Follow our steps and in no time you should see a head of hair you could be proud of.

  1. Use the right products-Using the right products can make all the difference.  If you have dry, damaged or weak hair, using products from the Hair Support Line can make all the difference in the world. Hair Support even has a kit to get you started. A deep cleansing shampoo that loosens build-up on the scalp which in turn will create a healthy environment for the growth of dormant hair. The Hair Support Restructuring Conditioner is a light and natural conditioner for the scalp and hair. It helps to maintain moisture and  does not weigh down hair with build up. The final product, Hair Support Overnight Scalp Treatment.  This is a patented treatment that deep cleans hair follicles and the scalp which potentially leads to the growth of dormant hair.  Using these three products all together will lead to stronger hair follicles, a full head of hair and a happier you. 
  2. Eat the right foods-Protein is the main food type that can help get your hair stronger.  So, add eggs, lean meats and beans to your diets and watch how strong your hair becomes.
  3. Stay away from high heat-If you are going to use a hair dryer then do not use a flat iron and vice a versa. When you do use either of these heat products do not keep heat in one area for very long. Heat dries out hair so focusing heat on the hair will only produce bad results.
Donte's of New York offers solutions for people with fine hair, thinning hair or hair loss. We have all non damaging treatments to provide you with a full head of hair you have always dreamed of. Call us today for a free consultation-480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.Dontes.com

What is Trichotillomania?

Trichotillomania, yes it is a mouthful, but for those 2.5 million Americans of all ages that live with it, it is a difficult struggle on a daily basis.  Not only is Trichotillomania a bad habit, it is a neurological disorder that causes people to pull out their own hair. As time progresses, and hair is pulled out of the same area by the root, it can leave permanent hair loss.  Although it may affect men it is predominantly seen in women. 

Fortunately we are here to help. If you are suffering from hair loss due to Trichotillomania, genetic or medically, we have natural solutions that can make you feel great about your hair again.  Call today for your FREE consultation to learn how: 480-483-8800 and please visit us on the web: www.dontes.com.

How often should I color my hair?

At the first sign of a gray hair, do you think, "Uh-oh, it's time for my hair to be colored?"  Well, think again, you might actually be doing more harm then good by coloring your hair too often.

 Ideally, you should be getting your hair colored every 6-8 weeks.  Any sooner than that, can cause breakage and potentially hair loss.

There are a few steps you can take to help your color last longer.  One of the best ways to keep your hair color looking vibrant is by washing your hair less and when you do wash your hair, use a shampoo that is made specifically for color treated hair. We love the Sudzz FX line of shampoos as they are meant to prolong your color and not wash it out.  Another way to keep the grays at bay, is to use a color wand or spray. We offer these options to our clients all of the time and they love it. It is a quick and easy fix to mask those grays while saving you a few dollars by not having to get as many color services each year.  Finally if you are a woman, you can style your hair differently to cover up the grays. Pull your hair back into a cute ponytail or barrette, and make hiding the grays a fun experience.

Donte's of New York is a full service Hair Loss Treatment Center, located in Scottsdale, Arizona. We specialize in hair loss, hair extensions and hair replacement. Call us today for your free consultation to learn how we can help you get back a head of hair you love, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web at:  www.dontes.com

What is Common Baldness also known as male or female pattern baldness?



Common baldness is a term that is given to male pattern baldness(the most common cause of hair loss in men), permanent pattern baldness or androgenetic alopecia.

Men who have male pattern baldness have in most cases inherited it from a family member.  Male pattern baldness is when the hair line recedes and there is a loss of hair on the top of the head. Men who begin to lose their hair at a younger age, generally have a higher degree of hair loss than a man who is older. 

In women, female pattern baldness occurs.  For women experiencing female pattern baldness, they will see hair thinning over the entire scalp. 

Donte's of New York has solutions for all forms of hair loss, whether you have just started losing your hair or whether you have lost most or all of it, Donte's of New York, can get you back to a full head of hair you will love.

How long should hair extensions last?

Hair Extensions can be costly and we all want to get the most bang for our buck, don't we?  So, how long should hair extensions last? 

When applied properly, hair extensions can last up to 6 months. Anything longer than that can cause tension on the hair and that can cause breakage.

Hair extensions should not last for less than 2 months when installed using the right methods. 

Always selecting the right type of extension method will insure the longevity of your hair extensions. Look for methods that do not require hot glue, braiding or sewing as this could cause temporary to permanent hair loss. 

Donte's of New York has been in the hair replacement/hair extension business for over 50 years, offering hair loss and hair extension solutions for men and women with fine, thinning hair or hair loss.  Visit us on the web to find out more:  www.dontes.com or call today for your FREE consultation: 480-483-8800.

How to keep your hair from getting frizzy

Frizzy hair effects all of us. Straight hair, curly hair or somewhere in between.  Here are some tips for getting rid of the frizz:
 If you have wavy hair: 

Use a good leave in conditioner, such as 444 spray by IHI. This will bring the moisture back into your hair and give you shine. 
Blot, do not rub your hair when it is wet. Rubbing wet hair causes friction, breakage and frizz. Gently blotting your wet hair to get out the moisture is always a good way to prevent the frizz.

If you use any hot tools, make sure to use a good serum before applying the heat. We love the Zenyth serum by Sudzz FX. It smells great and a little goes a long way to provide shine and most important,  no more frizzy hair.

 If you have straight hair:

 Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair shiny and frizz free. We think using the Sudzz FX Cashmere shampoo and the Aquafix conditioner are a great way to keep your hair looking smooth.  

If you have deep curls or ringlets:
It is very important that you use products which give your curly, curls moisture. We love Qshi Creamy JL. This product is light, smells good and does not leave you with crunchy, or stiff hair. 

 Diffuse, do not dry. With curly hair it is very important that you use a diffuser rather than a hot hair dryer. A diffuser works better because it actually spreads the heat around rather than focusing on one area.  Keeping high heat in one area of your head can cause frizzy hair. 
Do no brush your curls away. Brushing curly hair on a regular basis is a no-no. The reason is that the curls when brushed will break, causing frizziness.  Instead limit your brushing to before getting in the shower.  Once your hair is washed and conditioned,  only use a pick or a wide tooth comb to get out any lingering tangles.

 Donte's of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Scottsdale, AZ. We offer hair loss solutions for both men and women that do not require surgery and will make you look and feel your best.  Call us today for your FREE consultation, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web at: www.dontes.com

Best ways to keep your hair healthy

Washing your hair does many things, it cleans your scalp, your hair and it makes your hair smell great too, but what can you do to keep your hair it's shiniest and healthiest? Please read below for some tips we think you should know. 

  1. Rinse the shampoo out really good - So you have given your hair a good wash but did you know that leaving even a little of the shampoo residue in your hair can cause your hair to look dull and flat?  Yes, it's true.  So, always make sure that the suds are rinsed out well and use a good conditioner, such as Sudzz FX Moxee to give your hair a shiny glow. 
  2. Use the right style products- It can be so confusing when you are standing in front of the products shelf at your favorite store.  Everyone wants to tell you that their products are the best and the promises that are made are not always the results that you see. You can end up spending a fortune on hair products and still not get the desired look you are after.  If looking for something to give your hair more shine, we love the Sudzz FX Zenyth serum. What's so great about it, is it is lightweight, has silicone in it to protect your hair from heat and hot tools and even smells great too. Always make sure to use about a dime sized amount and spread it evenly throughout your hair.  Using too much could actually cause your hair to tangle so be careful not to overuse it. 
  3. Clarify, Clarify, Clarify-Once a month, pick a day and use a good clarifying shampoo on your hair.  We love the Sudzz FX Nyrvana.  Clarifying once a month will clean up any buildup on your scalp and leave your hair looking extra shiny and beautiful. 
We love hair and we want you to love yours too!  Donte's of New York, has been in the Hair Replacement business for over 45 years. We provide hair loss solutions to both Men and Women with fine, thinning hair or total hair loss, non surgically.  We know hair loss can be difficult, we are here to help. Please call us today for your FREE consultation, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web:  www.dontes.com and please like us on Facebook, Donte's of New York.

Women and Hair Loss

Did you know that hair loss in women is on the rise? It is true, hair loss in women is becoming as big a concern for women as it has been for men.  More and more women are experiencing thinning hair as a result of stress, chemical and styling damage, genetics, pregnancy and hormonal imbalances.  So, how do you know if you are a woman who is experiencing hair loss?  One of the biggest indicators is seeing a lot more hair in your brush, on your floor or in the shower when you wash your hair. Another big indicator is a wider part or a receding hair line.  Losing 100 strands a day is completely normal so use that as a good point of reference, but more than that, you might want to check with your dermatologist or general doctor to make sure it is nothing else.

 At Donte's of New York, we specialize in helping women and men with fine, thinning hair or total hair loss. We provide natural solutions without surgery to help you get back a head of hair that you can be proud of.  Call us today:  480-483-8800 to find out how we can help you and to schedule your FREE consultation.

Hair Extension's many options

Who would have thought that hair extensions could give you so much flexibility? Hard to believe for some I am sure. But in actuality hair extensions can allow you to go from a short haircut to a beautiful head of long flowing locks all in less than a few hours time. 

Picking which extensions work best for you is the hard part. There are many ways that extensions can be attached. Some leave your hair healthy and allow your hair to grow without leaving any lasting damage, while other extensions can cause breakage, and even sometimes permanent hair loss. 

At Donte's of New York we strive to provide our customers with extensions that will allow you to have a gorgeous head of hair while at the same time leave your hair damage free. The methods that we have been doing for over 16 years in Arizona have proven to allow this.  Whether you just want to wear your extensions every now and then by selecting our clip in extensions or prefer to have them in for 3-6 months at a time, Donte's of New York can give you hair that will make you feel confident and gorgeous.

How to keep a youthful glow to your hair

As we age, so does our hair but following the steps listed below can help keep your hair looking fresh and young.

1.  Keep ponytails loose & at a minimum:
Keeping hair in tight ponytails, braids or anything that puts stress on your hair, can lead to breakage.  Worn too many days in a row it can also lead to hair loss, which sometimes can be permanent. The best advice we give our clients is to reduce the stress on your hair by alternating wearing your hair down and up.  Try not to wear your hair in a tight pulled back style too many days in a row and keep braiding to a minimum.  Wearing hair extensions that are attached with braids or are sewn in have been known to cause Track Alopecia, lose of hair in the specific area where extensions are attached in this manner.  At Donte's of New York, our hair extensions are attached in a non-damaging way that will not contribute to hair loss and will actually allow damaged hair to grow out, leaving only healthy hair. 

2.  Shampoo less:
Unless your hair is oily or dirty, it is not always necessary to shampoo daily.  Shampoo's actually can strip the hair, which can cause dull hair that breaks.  If you feel you must shampoo daily, then try to shampoo only at the root and condition the ends.  Choosing a shampoo that is moisturizing is always a good way to go as it will help keep hair shiny and healthy.  We recommend Suddz FX Cashmere Shampoo as it works wonders at moisturizing hair and keeping it looking it's best.

3.  Take care with your hair when it is wet:
When hair is wet it has a tendency to be elastic and can snap easily. Rubbing your hair with a towel is a no, no as is brushing it.  We always advise our customers to brush their hair out thoroughly before washing their hair and use only their fingers to get out any knots once they come out of the shower.  Once your hair is about 85% dry then you can start using a brush to style your hair. 

4. Use hot tools sparingly:
Using hot tools such as curling irons, hair dryers or flat irons on a daily basis can cause hair to dry out. This will lead to dull, frizzy and damaged hair that easily breaks.  When using hot tools, it is important that you always use a protective serum or spray, this will coat the hair with silicone and will help to keep hair from being damaged.  Our favorite product is the Suddzz FX Zenyth serum.  All you need to use is about a dime sized amount and it keeps hair looking shiny and beautiful even when you are using hot tools.  Using hot tools less often is also recommended. Try air drying your hair or flat ironing every few days, and you should see a nice difference.

Synthetic hair VS. Human Hair, which one is best?

When deciding what type of hair you would like to have in a wig or a hairsystem there are basically 2 commonly available choices-Human Hair or Synthetic Hair. How does one determine which would be better for them?  Below are the pluses and minuses to both.

Human Hair

  1. It's human hair, which means it is going to look just as your own hair did.
  2. You can do everything you did with your own hair with a human hairpiece or wig-curling, coloring, etc...
  3. It looks natural. Sometimes dependent upon the quality of the synthetic hair, you can see a marked difference from the sheen of the hair. A lot of synthetic hair tends to have a shiny look. 
  4. It breaks. The hair on a wig or hairsystem is processed so taking great care of it and keeping it moisturized is key. Not properly conditioning the hair or keeping it hydrated can cause the hair to become dry and brittle which can lead to breakage. 
Synthetic Hair

1.  Easy to wash and wear-synthetic hair keeps it's shape so you really do not have to spend a great deal of time styling it.
2. Less expensive to purchase in a lot of cases. Because it is manufactured hair and not human hair the costs are a lot lower. 
3.  Shine. Synthetic hair, particularly lower grade wigs or hair pieces tend to have a high shine to them. This makes the hair not look as natural as it should.
4.  Frizzing. If too much friction is applied to synthetic hair, it can frizz up and there is not a lot that can be done to recover it. 
5.  You will not be able to use high heat on a synthetic wig or hairsystem. In most cases it will melt the hair and ruin it completely. So no curls.

Donte's of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Scottsdale, Arizona. Offering non-surgical hair loss solutions to both men and women.

Taking care of your hair in the summer sun

The summer sun may feel nice but spending too much time outside may cause damage to your hair.  The following are some steps you can take so that you can enjoy the wonderful summer weather.

1.  Use a leave in conditioner that contains sunscreen. In the hot Arizona summer which lasts much longer than other parts of the country, we always recommend our clients use either IHI's 444 spray or the Qshi Leave in Conditioner. Both of these products contain sunscreen while at the same time give your hair the moisture it needs.

2.  If you plan to have your hair colored in the summer, make sure to use products that are specially formulated to prevent fading.  We love the whole Sudzz FX line of products. Their shampoos and Conditioners are made specifically to stop fading and they make your hair look and feel wonderful too.

3.  Keep your hair and your body hydrated. Even if you don't have any products at home, water in a spray bottle sprayed frequently in your hair throughout the day, will keep your hair moisturized and will leave you with a healthy head of hair. Make sure to drink plenty of water too. Nourishing ourselves from the inside makes for a healthy head of hair on the outside.

Donte's of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Scottsdale, Arizona. We provide services to both men and women who are experiencing hair damage, hair thinning and total hair loss.

Melanoma & Your Scalp

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.

Donte's of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Scottsdale Arizona, serving both Men and Women who are experiencing thinning hair or total hair loss. We offer non-surgical solutions such as hair replacement, hair extensions, wigs and the Micropoint Solutions procedures.  We know hair loss can be difficult, you are not alone, we are here to help.

Getting rid of frizzy hair

Frizzy hair is never fun, but how can one keep a sleek look when there are so many elements that can effect your hair? 

Hair can become unruly for many reasons. If you live in a humid climate the chances of having frizzy hair increases dramatically.  Keeping your hair moisturized is key in preventing dry frizzy hair.  Using a hydrating shampoo such as Qshi Moisturizing Shampoo or Sudzz FX Whipped Cream and Honey will help give your hair back the moisture it has lost.  Another factor which will create frizz is leaving home with wet hair.  Leaving hair damp, actually encourages frizz.  Applying a product such as Sudzz FX, Zenyth, will help protect hair from styling products and hair dryers, so don't be afraid to dry your hair to at least 85%.  Finally, if frizzy hair is something you just can't deal with anymore, then why not have a professional salon provide you with a Keratin treatment. There are many great Keratin treatments now available on the market that are chemical free too.  We love the Keraluxe line of treatments and so do our customers. It will provide a sleek head of hair that will last for months.  If you find your hair is damaged beyond repair and you suffer from breakage and hair that just won't seem to grow, then you may want to consider hair extensions. At Donte's of New York, we offer high quality hair extensions that will not damage your hair and will allow your hair to grow out and get back the beautiful hair you once had. Sounds great?  Check us out on the web at: www.Dontes.com or call today for your FREE consultation at: 480-483-8800 to find out more.

At Donte's of New York our extensions are applied by our highly skilled technicians, all trained and backed by Donte's over fifty years in the hair replacement/hair extension business.  The extensions are attached in ways that will allow your hair to grow in a healthy way, leaving you with a beautiful head of hair.

Female hair loss

Did you know that almost half of the female population suffers from hair loss by the time they are in their 50's?  Women are more and more likely to be following the trend of our male counterparts when it comes to hair loss.  So, what can women expect when it comes to hair loss?

Women have a tendency to lose hair on the top of their heads unlike men who tend to get a recession in the front hairline.  When hair loss begins, the first step that we always recommend is to see your general physician. This will rule out any medical issues such as thyroid conditions that might be attributing to your hair loss. If your doctor determines that your hair loss is genetic, there are a few steps you should take.

If you catch your hair loss in its early stages there are several topical treatments that will help to build strength in your hair follicle and will slow down the hair loss.  We love the Hair Support line. We offer a kit that contains a shampoo, conditioner and overnight treatment.  We have seen huge results with this line and it is our best seller.

Keeping your hair clean while experiencing hair loss should be a top priority and the hair support shampoo gets down to the hair follicle to allow your hair to grow and produce a fuller head of hair.

If your hair loss has gotten to the point of no return, then there are many wonderful non surgical options that are available.  At Donte's of New York we offer hairsystems to our female clients who have experienced a great deal of hair loss. These hairsystems are all human hair and look so natural that when someone is looking on the top of your head all they see is scalp and a beautiful head of hair.  We also offer hair extensions. Many of our customers just have fine and sometimes thinning hair. Hair extensions can provide a beautiful head of hair when attached in a non-damaging way as we do at Donte's of New York. Finally, we also offer the Micropoint line of hair. Micropoint Links allow you to add 4 hairs to 1 of your existing hairs, giving you a fuller head of hair that looks so natural no one would know.  Finally, Micropoint Accents are small extensions that can be placed on the top of the head and can give you a ton of volume where you need it the most.

Best way to choose the right color and style for you

With all the beautiful hair colors and styles that are out there, picking the perfect one for you can be a challenge. Here are some tips that may help:

  1. Bring in a picture of yourself-If there was a phase in your life that you particularly loved your hair color or hairstule, then why not try to recreate it?  Pictures can be very helpful for your stylist as you both are seeing the same thing and can help insure that you get what you asked for. 
  2. Use your own vocabulary to explain what you want, not the salon's-Letting your stylist know that you like your hair to be blonde with a touch of dark in it, helps so much more than trying to use salon speak.  It is amazing how many people think an ashy tone looks warm and a warm tone looks ashy. Also if you are not clear on what your stylist is describing always ask if they can show you a color swatch of what they mean. All salons should have a color swatch so you can clearly see what you are going to get. 
  3. Ask away -It is your hair that is going to be cut, colored, permed, etc...always make sure you know exactly what you are getting done.  As some of you may know, a hair surprise is one of the worst surprises there is.  Ask questions like:  "What kind of maintenance will my new look have?" or "Can I still pull my hair back in a ponytail, with my new look?" to name a few. Your stylist wants you to be happy so making sure you are is a priority, don't be afraid to ask anything and everything that you are thinking at the time of your appointment. 
Hopefully these tips will help you to enjoy your next salon experience even more.

Donte's of New York is the premier Hair Loss Treatment Center in Scottsdale, Arizona. We specialize in non-surgical, non-damaging, hair replacement/hair extensions for both Men and Women.

Non Damaging Hair Extensions

Hair Extensions are available in a wide variety of lengths and can range from straight to tight curls.  When it comes to the application you want to be sure to choose the right type of extensions that will offer no damage to your hair as well as a skilled technician who knows how to properly attach them. 

Donte has over 50 years of experience in hair replacement and hair extensions and personally trains each of the technicians after he himself receives the most up to date education. The hair extensions used at Donte's of New York, are not applied with any type of adhesive.  Adhesives can be harsh on the hair and cause the hair to weaken and break. We also do not believe that braiding or sewing will leave your hair in it's best shape. In fact braiding and sewing have been known to cause a condition called Tract Alopecia. This can cause lasting hair loss, so we are highly against this type of procedure.  The procedures that we use for hair extensions allow the customer to leave with a gorgeous head of hair which if they so choose can be worn for many years without the negative effects other extensions may leave.

Ways to insure that your hair replacement/hair extensions look the most natural

When deciding on purchasing a hair addition, there are some important things to keep in mind, color of course is one of the first things.  If the color does not match, a natural look will be very hard to accomplish. Secondly,  length is a very important thing to discuss,  because you want to make sure the hair lays where you like it. Finally density should be a high priority on your list because if the hair is too thick or too thin, then once again you will loose the natural look you are after.  When you have had hair loss, it is sometimes difficult to determine the right density for you.  If you are like most people the loss of hair makes you want a lot more of it. Of course,  having a lot of hair is not something that most people have to begin with, so, if you want to get back to looking as you did before your hair loss began then you want to be sure to select a realistic density.  One that first of all you can be happy with, one that you can handle and most important looks natural on you.  As time progresses and you become more comfortable with your hair addition you may decide to add length or even more density but it is recommended to start out conservatively until the whole process of wearing hair becomes comfortable to you.  There are of course those of us who don't mind if others know they have a hair addition, if that is you, then by all means select what you want, but keep in mind, that a lot of hair does mean a lot more work. 

If you have fine hair, thinning hair or total hair loss, Donte's of New York can help you, providing natural  hair loss solutions for both Men and Women that are non-damaging, and will give you back your self confidence. Call us today for your FREE consultation: 480-483-8800, please visit us on the web at: www.Dontes.com or on Facebook: Donte's of New York.  We know hair loss can be difficult, you are not alone, we are here to help.

Aging Hair

As we age, so does our hair.  It may turn gray, while at the same time the texture may become brittle and may have a tendency to break more easily.  Hair in a lot of cases will also thin out and hair loss becomes more apparent as the aging process continues in life.  For most people, our hair begins to change as early as when we are in our mid 30's.  Using chemical treatments, over processing hair with color and the use of hot tools does not help aging hair.  What can you do to keep your hair healthy as you inevitably age?  Below are some steps we recommend you take to keep your hair looking beautiful even as the years go by.

  1. Eat healthy-a diet that is rich in protein, omega oils and calcium will allow your hair to be strong and shine. If you are not a fan of foods that contain protein, omega oils and calcium, then be sure to supplement your diet with vitamins.  You will also want to consider taking vitamins that contain biotin, vitamins E, C & A as well as Zinc. 
  2. If you are already experiencing the effects of older hair-breakage, hair loss, etc.. be sure to visit your stylist every 6-8 weeks to insure that your hair is being properly maintained. 
  3. When your hair is wet, it is best not to brush it.  Wet hair is more elastic and prone to breakage.  Always brush your hair prior to showering and either let it air dry or dry it with a hair dryer until it is about 85% dry. At that point, it is safe to use a brush to style your hair. 
  4. For Women, wearing a tight bun or ponytail on a daily basis, can cause hair loss, also known as Tract Alopecia. If you enjoy wearing your hair in these styles, try placing the bun or ponytail in different positions or alternate your look by wearing your hair down one day and up the next. 
  5. Daily use of hot tools such as curling irons, rollers, or flat irons are not recommended. Try skipping a day or more in between. Hot tools dry out the hair, causing the hair to become brittle and break. 
  6. Use products such as the IHI Hair Support Line. This line of products was scientifically manufactured to help stop hair loss.  With the use of their Home Treatment System, which consists of a shampoo, conditioner and overnight treatment, you will see beautiful results. We recommend this product to all of our customers and we have a hard time keeping it on our shelves. It really works and provides hair growth in a short period of time.
  7. If you are already experiencing hair loss with no chance of hair growth, then it is time to give Donte's of New York a call. We specialize in getting you back the hair you always loved.  We offer free consultations to both men and women, offering non-surgical hair loss options, such as hair replacement, hair extensions and the revolutionary Micropoint systems-add 4 hairs to just one of yours today.

Primary cause of male pattern hair loss

The primary reasons for male pattern hair loss are composed of three factors, genetics, age and hormones.  It is common for about 1/3 of all men to experience some form of hair loss by the age of 45.  DHT, (dihydrotestosterone) is what causes hair loss.  The hair follicles are shrunk by DHT which, makes the hair finer and finer until eventually it stops growing altogether.  If hair loss is in your genes primarily on your mother's side, that too could be a reason for your loss of hair. 

If you have experienced or are just starting to have signs of hair loss, Donte's of New York is here to help. We are a full service non-surgical,  hair loss treatment center for both Men and Women. We provide hair loss solutions that will allow you to have a head of hair you can be proud of.  Call us today for your free consultation: 480-483-8800, or visit us on the web at:  www.dontes.com  We know hair loss is a difficult thing to experience, you are not alone, we are here to help.

How to prevent frizzy hair

Who likes frizzy hair?  Most people would say smooth hair looks so much better.  Unruly hair effects all of us at one time or another, but what can we do to prevent it or get rid of it?  Below are some steps to follow to get rid of frizz:

  • Always use a frizz fighter that is made for your hair type:  for fine or medium hair, serums work well while creams  or oils are ideal for thick hair. We highly recommend for all hair types Sudzz Fx, Zenyth. This products works great as a serum or oil providing, shiny, beautiful results.   If your  hair is curly a leave in conditioner such as, 444 spray works wonders. 
  • Use your anti-frizz product on damp hair:  It is best to use a small dime sized amount of your frizz fighter and be sure to distribute it evenly throughout your hair. Believe it or not, overuse of a serum could actually produce knots in your hair, so stick to the dime sized amount for best results. 
  • Air-drying is great:  We always recommend that our clients brush their hair out really good prior to washing their hair. This prevents breakage, as when the hair is wet it is most elastic and has a tendency to snap and break.  If you have some tangling when you do come out of the shower only use your fingers or a wide tooth comb to remove the tangles.  The less you touch your hair when it is drying the less frizz you will see.
  • Blow drying is fine too:  If you want to blow dry your hair, it is best to apply a serum, cream or oil and let the drying begin.  Using the nozzle attachment on your blower is always great as it prevents the high heat of the hair dryer to hit the hair as much. If you have wavy or curly  hair, using a diffuser will produce the best non-frizzy results. 
  • Hair should be dry throughout:  Wet or damp hair has a tendency to frizz when touched so make sure your hair is completely dry before going out. 
Follwing these tips should help you maintain a beautiful, frizz free head of hair that everyone will admire. 

Donte's of New York is a leader in the hair loss treatment field, specializing in hair replacement, hair extensions and Micropoint procedures. All of our treatments will provide you with a natural looking head of hair you can be proud of, with no damage.  Visit our website today: www.dontes.com to learn more or call today for your FREE consultation: 480-483-8800 to find out how we can help you get the head of hair you always dreamed of.

Dandruff, Psoriasis and Dry Scalp

Dandruff, Psoriasis and Dry Scalp effects a high percentage of the population, but how do you know which one is effecting you? 

Dandruff  Psoriasis and Dry Scalp are sometimes misdiagnosed as each other as they all have similar characteristics. 

Psoriasis is not curable, and causes red patches of skin that are scaley with a silver like look.  If you are diagnosed with Psoriasis, it is important that you follow the steps that your medical professional advises to control it. 

Dandruff produces scales as well but they are yellow or white in color and are generally attached to the scalp and sometimes also to the hair shaft.  Dandruff results from having an over production of sebum and can be controlled by washing the hair with a dandruff shampoo.  A product that works well for our customers is a shampoo called Hair Support.  Hair Support works to cleanse the sebum out of the hair follicle which in turn allows the hair to grow freely from the follicle. 

Finally Dry Scalp is when the scalp produces white flakes, which are sometimes noticed flaking onto your shirt.  If you switch to a mild shampoo such as Qshi Moisturizing Shampoo, this can help to eleviate this condition. 

Most people who are experiencing hair loss, suffer from one or more of these conditions. At Donte's of New York, we offer many products that can help you with both your hair loss as well as to help keep your hair and scalp better hydrated.  If you are experiencing hair loss or if you are looking for a product that can help keep your hair looking it's best, give us a call today, 480-483-8800, or visit us on the web:  www.dontes.com, we are here to help.

How to keep your hair healthy when using heat

The use of hot tools over time hair can cause major damage to your hair.  Using a hair dryer, curling iron or flat iron on a daily basis, can cause your hair's cuticle to dry out and frizz.  Over time, the dryness will cause your hair to break.  Below are some tips that we at Donte's of New York recommend to our clients.

  • After washing your hair, it is important that you pat dry your hair, do not rub. Rubbing will cause friction and breakage.
  • After exiting the shower, it is important to apply a frizz eliminator such as Zenyth by Sudzz FX. This silicone based product will coat your hair to protect it from the heat, while at the same time leave behind a beautiful healthy shine to your hair. This is one of our best sellers at Donte's of New York, both Men and Women love it. 
  • When using your hair dryer, try to dry your hair with the nozzle attachment. This will create a good distance between your hair and the dryer, minimizing too much heat from hitting your hair at once. 
  • If you choose to flat iron your hair, only go over each section one time and try to use a setting that is 360 degrees or less for fine hair and 410 degrees or less for thicker hair. 
Following these steps will allow you to have a beautiful head of hair. If however, your hair loss is beyond repair, Donte's of New York has solutions to help you get back the hair you once had with our natural hairpieces and hair extensions, only your stylist and you will know the difference.  Call today for a free consultation: 480-483-8800 or visit our website:  www.dontes.com to learn more.

Stop hairloss in it's tracks!!!

Did you know that hair loss and hair thinning can be caused by product buildup, oils and the shedding of your own skin?  Yes, it is true!  Regular hair care products clean and treat hair, but some products contain ingredients that leave behind a residue. Over time, this residue can build up and clog your pores. 

A new and revolutionary product is now available to you by Hair Support.  Donte's of New York a premier Hair Loss Treatment Center in Arizona, has seen remarkable results from our customers that have used these products.  We have a kit available that includes the Hair Support Overnight Scalp Treatment-this patented treatment, deep cleans the hair follicle and the scalp which overtime allows for hair growth. Also included in the kit are the Hair Support Cleansing and Revitalizing Shampoo-a deep cleansing shampoo that will get rid of build up and debris on the scalp and the Hair Support Restructuring Conditioner-a light and natural conditioner that maintains moisture and does not weigh down the hair. When these 3 products are used in conjunction with each other the results are amazing.  The best part is that these products are very reasonably priced, you can purchase the whole kit for only $48.00.

Call Donte's of New York today to find out how you too can see the dramatic results that the Hair Support line can provide for you. Our phone number is:  480-483-8800 or visit us on the web at www.dontes.com  You are not alone with your hair loss we are here to help, call us today!

Fine &/or oily hair? What products are best?

Fine or oily hair requires maintainance.  Most people believe if you have fine or oily hair it must be washed daily. This is not always the case, as washing hair every day, will strip away the hairs natural oils and can produce frizz. 

At Donte's of New York, we recommend that our clients with fine or oily hair try to wash their hair every other day. For our fine or oily haired customers, we suggest using either the Hair Support shampoo and conditioner or any of our Sudzz FX shampoos and conditioners. Both of these lines are made with the fine or oily hair client in mind and have formulas that will work best to keep your hair looking its best. Another recommendation is that our customers limit the friction to their hair by massaging the shampoo into their scalps with their fingertips, rather than scrubbing with their palms. Scrubbing will cause friction and that can lead to frizzy hair &/or breakage.

 Donte's of New York is a leader in hair loss treatments. We provide hair loss solutions to both men and women that are looking for a way to get back the beautiful head of hair they once had.  If you are experiencing hair loss, we know it is difficult, but please know you are not alone, Donte's of New York is here to help. Please call us today for your free consultation: 480-483-8800 or visit our webpage:  WWW.Dontes.com to find out more.

Hair loss in Men and Women

Hair loss is common in both men and women. As we age so does our bodies and so does our hair. 

In men hair loss is generally genetic as male pattern hair loss is hereditary.  Other factors can also be the culprits, such as stress, poor diet, medications and chemical use on the hair such as perms and dyes, to name a few.
For Women, hair loss at times may be self inflicted with the use of chemicals such as color, glued in or sewed in hair extensions and relaxers.  Women may experience hair loss due to hormonal changes, such as menopause and women also have a higher incidence of auto immune diseases, which can cause hair to fall out.  Diet, stress, and medications are also factors that cause hair loss in women as well.

Donte’s of New York is the premier hair loss treatment center in Arizona, providing hair loss solutions to both men and women.  We know hair loss is difficult, you are not alone, we are here to help. Call us today for a FREE consultation, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.dontes.com.
