The Truth About Hair Salon Product Diversion

 

Written by Michelle Rybicki

What is Product Diversion?

Diversion is when products designed and meant for exclusive distribution at a specific salon end up on shelves of an unintended store.  In other words, diversion occurs when professional salon products like Redken, Pureology and Paul Mitchell are sold at non-salon locations.

Consumers who buy professional hair care products at major retailers, grocery or drug stores may not be getting the bargains they think. These retailers are fueling a grey-market industry that deals in counterfeit, stolen and outdated merchandise.  

Because professional hair care products are not regulated by the FDA, consumers may be getting ripped off. Not only are they paying more for the products, but they are also not guaranteed by hair care companies like Redken, Pureology and Paul Mitchell.

It’s definitely a buyer beware situation. In some cases, these products have been found to be tampered with and when tested contained high levels of bacteria- which can cause irritation or even infection.  Purchasing diverted products can be dangerous especially if there is a recall on a particular product.  Retailers will not be notified of a recall if they are not an authorized dealer.
How to tell if merchandise may be diverted:
-Cans may be dented or dirty.
-Part of the batch code may be missing or tampered with.
-Lettering on the bottle may be faded.
Unfortunately, diversion is legal.  Any professional product you find outside a salon that contains the words “for sale in professional salons only” or “guaranteed only when purchased in a salon” have been diverted.  These products are not guaranteed to be at the same level of quality as those found in the salon. Because these products go through many channels during the black market process, sometimes the products can cost up to two times more as you would pay in a salon.
Professional products should be purchased in a professional salon because only trained and licensed stylists can make educated product recommendations for your specific situation.

Summer Hair Care

Summer Hair Care Tips

Written by:  Michelle Rybicki

During the summer months, chlorine and sun exposure can take a heavy toll on your hair.

5 Steps to Healthy Summer Hair

To replenish damaged, dried out hair, a good deep conditioning treatment during your next visit should do the trick. For long lasting shine, consider a keratin treatment that will help keep locks frizz free for several months.

Summer is not a time to skimp on conditioner, as the air tends to be more dry. Try to shampoo less and always use a conditioner. Also, once a week, apply a deep conditioner to hair and leave it on for at least 10 minutes. Both of these steps will help combat dry, static hair.
Good hygiene, care and a diet that is filled with the seasonal fruits and vegetables that are available in the summer will help your hair look great throughout summer and right into fall.

Colored hair has a tendency to dull in the fall and winter months, and this is largely due to the diminishing sun hours and the lack of natural moisture in the air. Try not to shampoo as often. Over-washing will strip your hair’s natural oils giving you limp, dried-out hair. Aim to use only high quality hair care products which actually moisturize the hair.

Do not neglect the tips of the hair as they might tend to become dry, brittle and develop split ends. Trim your hair regularly in order to avoid this. You will love the impact that it will have on your hair. This will ensure that your hair remains strong and wonderful throughout the summer.
