How to Maintain Your Haircut: A Barber’s Guide to Looking Fresh
A fresh haircut can make you feel confident and stylish, but maintaining that sharp look between barber visits takes effort.
At The Land of Sunshine 88, we want to help you keep your hair looking its best for as long as possible.
Here’s a barber-approved guide to extending the life of your haircut.
1. Schedule Regular Touch-Ups
Even the best haircuts need maintenance. Depending on your style, you should book a trim every 4-6 weeks to keep your fade crisp or your layers in check. A well-maintained haircut always looks more polished.
2. Use the Right Hair Products
Styling products help maintain your look throughout the day. Our exclusive SUNNY GOOD HAIR DAY range offers organic, Australian-made options to suit different hair types:
Sea Salt Spray: Adds volume and natural texture.
Matte Clay: Provides a strong hold with a matte finish.
Styling Cream: Great for flexible styling with a medium hold.
3. Wash and Condition Properly
Overwashing can strip your hair of natural oils, causing dryness and frizz. Instead:
Wash your hair 2-3 times a week with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
Use conditioner to keep your hair hydrated and manageable.
4. Brush and Style Daily
Brushing your hair daily helps distribute natural oils and prevents tangling. For styled looks, take a few minutes each morning to shape your hair using the right product and a blow dryer if needed.
5. Protect Your Hair While Sleeping
Friction from your pillow can cause messy hair in the morning. Try these tips:
Use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce frizz.
Apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner if your hair tends to dry out overnight.
6. Stay Hydrated and Eat Well
Healthy hair starts from within. Drink plenty of water and include protein, biotin, and omega-3s in your diet to promote strong and healthy hair growth.
7. Book Your Next Appointment in Advance
Don’t wait until your hair looks overgrown to book your next visit.
Scheduling in advance ensures you always have a fresh cut without long gaps.
