Ever feel like you’re lost in a jungle of hair-related questions? Fear not! At Pierino Scarfo Hair Salon in Westboro, we've heard it all – from split ends to frizz-fighting tips. So, to save you from a hair-raising experience, our expert stylists have compiled the top 10 most asked questions and answered them just for you! Get ready to unravel the mysteries of hair care, styling, and more with our handy guide. Let’s dive in and get your locks looking their absolute best! 


How do I get rid of split ends? 

Split ends – the arch-nemesis of every hair enthusiast! But fear not, defeating them is easier than you think. Start by using quality shampoo and conditioner tailored to your hair type. Treat yourself to a weekly deep conditioning session for that extra TLC. And hey, if you're a heat styling fiend, always remember your trusty heat protectant before diving into that blowout! 

How often should I get my hair cut? 

Ah, the age-old question of hair maintenance! The frequency of trims depends on your hair's growth rate and style. Shorter ‘dos or damaged locks may call for more frequent visits, while longer styles can go a bit longer between cuts. As a general rule, aim for a snip every 4-6 weeks to keep your mane looking fresh and fierce! 


How often should I wash my hair? 

To shampoo or not to shampoo – that is the question! The answer? It depends! Your hair type, scalp, and personal preference all play a role. Oily scalps might need a wash every day, while drier hair can go longer between washes. Experiment and find what works best for you – and hey, we’re always here to lend a helping hand! 


How do I reduce frizz? 

Frizz – the mortal enemy of smooth, sleek hair! But fear not, dear friend, for we have the tools to combat it! Start by using hydrating products suited to your hair type. Add a dash of leave-in conditioner or serum for that extra moisture boost. And don’t forget your trusty heat protectant before styling – it’s the shield your hair deserves! 


How do I prevent heat damage? 

Ah, the perils of heat styling! But fret not, for prevention is the name of the game. Always start with a heat protectant spray or serum to shield your strands from harm. Opt for lower heat settings and take breaks between styling sessions. And hey, why not treat yourself to some high-quality hot tools? Your hair will thank you later! 


How can I make my hair grow faster? 

Dreaming of luscious, Rapunzel-like locks? Well, darling, it’s all about the TLC! Nourish your hair from the inside out with a healthy diet and hair growth-promoting vitamins. Treat yourself to scalp massages and essential oils to stimulate growth. And remember, patience is key – Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither is a fabulous mane! 


How do I blow dry the back of my hair? 

Ah, the elusive art of blow-drying! Mastering the back can be a bit tricky, but fear not – we’ve got your back! Start with a round brush for maximum control, focusing on the roots first. Don’t forget to use a diffuser for those luscious curls! And hey, when in doubt, a hand mirror is your best friend for those hard-to-reach spots. 


How can I make my hair look shiny? 

Shiny hair – the holy grail of hair goals! Achieving that glossy sheen is easier than you think. Start with the right shampoo and conditioner combo tailored to your hair’s needs. Treat yourself to a weekly deep conditioning treatment for that extra oomph. And don’t forget to seal the deal with a shine-enhancing spray for that red carpet-worthy finish! 


How can I make my curls stay defined? 

Curls, curls, glorious curls! To keep those babies defined, start by embracing your natural texture. Reach for curl-defining creams or gels to enhance those gorgeous locks. Steer clear of heat styling whenever possible, and opt for products designed specifically for curly hair. And remember – a little satin pillowcase goes a long way in preserving those perfect curls overnight! 


Is it damaging to wear your hair in a ponytail every day? 

Ah, the age-old ponytail debate! While convenient, wearing your hair in a ponytail every day can lead to breakage and damage. Give your locks a breather now and then, and mix it up with different styles to keep things fresh. And don’t forget – quality hair ties and gentle handling are key to keeping those strands happy and healthy!
