A Detox Treatment: The Reset Your Hair Deserves

A Detox Treatment is so much more than a deep cleanse — it’s the "reset button" your hair has been begging for! Since it’s a cornerstone of the Refresh Hair Studio experience, this page will explain why it’s the ultimate "Hair Therapy" for everyone from busy moms to little swimmers.

The Reset Your Hair Deserves: The Refresh Detox Treatment

Have you ever felt like your hair just isn’t "acting right"? Maybe it feels heavy, looks dull no matter how much you wash it, or your favorite products just aren't working like they used to.

The culprit is usually buildup. At Refresh Hair Studio, we believe a great hair day starts with a clean slate. Our Detox Treatment is designed to strip away the "gunk" so your hair’s natural beauty can shine through.

What Exactly Is "Buildup" (And Why Is It in My Hair?)

Even if you are a champion hair-washer, your hair is a magnet for things that don't belong there. The biggest offender? Our water.

• Hard Water & Minerals: Most of our tap water contains minerals like calcium, magnesium, and even iron. These minerals create a literal "filmic" layer over your hair strands, making them feel stiff, straw-like, and prone to breakage.
• Heavy Metals: Copper and lead from old pipes can hitch a ride on your hair, which can actually cause chemical reactions (and unpredictable results!) during color or perm services.
• Environmental Pollutants: Dust, smoke, and city smog settle on your hair daily.
• Product Overload: Silicone-heavy conditioners and "long-wear" styling products can build up over time, suffocating the hair cuticle.

Why is this bad? Buildup acts like a barrier. It prevents moisture from getting in, which leads to chronic dryness, and it prevents color from penetrating evenly, which leads to muddy or fading results.

Who Is This For? (Hint: Everyone!)

Because we all use water and live in the world, everyone needs a detox! However, it is an absolute must for:

• Swimmers (Little & Big!): Chlorine is a hair-killer. It strips natural oils and can even give hair a greenish tint. If your kiddos are at the pool all summer or at camp, get them in for a "Swim Reset" to keep their hair soft and healthy!
• The "3-Week Madness" Crowd: If you color your hair frequently, a detox ensures your color stays vibrant and true to tone.
• Gray Blending Clients: To get that bright, sparkly silver look, we have to remove the yellowing "dinge" caused by environmental buildup.
• Fine-Haired Friends: If your hair feels limp and weighed down, removing buildup will give you instant "bounce" and volume you didn’t know you had!

How Often Should I Detox?

• The Seasonal Reset: Every 3–4 months is ideal for most people to clear out seasonal buildup.
• The Pre-Service Essential: We always recommend (and often require!) a detox before a major color transition, perm, or keratin treatment to ensure the best results.
• The "Summer Special": For active swimmers, once a month during the summer can prevent permanent damage.

The Result: Frickin' Amazing Hair

When we remove the minerals, metals, and "gunk," your hair is finally able to breathe. It will feel lighter, look shinier, and be much more responsive to your at-home products. It’s the ultimate foundation for healthy hair.
