I got my hair “painted” with the Balayage technique at the Roy Teeluck Salon. I figured that I needed to treat myself to one nice, expensive salon because of my past bad experiences. If you mention Yelp, you get 20% off your entire service!

I was recently told by a stylist that the purpose of shampooing your hair is to clean and stimulate your scalp. Well, duh — you might be thinking. But the stimulating the scalp part actually was a reminder for me because I don’t actually do it! She said that by stimulating your scalp by scrubbing with your fingers, you will actually help promote healthy hair growth. Hair GROWTH!? Ohh I need that!
Here are some pictures to help you understand how far you have to dig into your scalp to massage and scrub:
