Applying the FHI HeatSatin Finish Conditioning Treatment will help replenish moisture and repair damage from chlorine. For detangling, the gentle yet effective viralUnbrush delicately removes knots without pulling or breaking, which is particularly important for sensitive, chlorine-exposed strands.
Lock in Moisture (Autumn)
-
With the crisp, dry air of autumn, maintaining optimal moisture levels in your hair is crucial to prevent dryness and enhance hair health. Regular oil treatments lay a strong foundation by deeply nourishing your strands. Pairing these treatments with the right tool can significantly amplify their benefits.

Its advanced technology emits negative ions and far-infrared heat, which work together to seal the hair cuticle after oil treatments. This sealing effect traps moisture inside the hair shaft, ensuring that the nourishing oils are more effective and your hair stays hydrated and silky throughout the dry autumn months..
Reduce Heat Styling (Autumn)

Giving your hair a break from heat helps to prevent further drying and damage. Opting to air-dry more often or using minimal heat for styling is advisable.
