Discovering The Best Salon Hair Care Products For Your Needs

Choosing salon hair care products can be difficult for professional salon owners. They don’t want to stand behind the wrong product line and they don’t want to needlessly pressure patrons of the salons into a purchase. There has been little industry regulation to determine “what works” and “what doesn’t work,” so the result is a need for trusted sources to disseminate the winners from the losers. This June, the 2008 Stylist Choice Awards in Orlando, Florida nominated the top five products based on salon hair styling product reviews from hundreds of thousands of salons across the nation. There were some common brands that carried multiple categories this year, notably Farouck Systems, Redken, Paul Mitchell, Kenra, Matrix, TIGI, Joico and Aveda.

In the 2008 Stylist Choice Awards, professional salon hair products leader Redken took the prize for “Favorite Overall Professional Products Company,” which is no surprise, considering they’ve won the past seven years in a row! “Favorite conditioner” was awarded to Redken All Soft Conditioner, which is known for its detangling, replenishing and silkening formula. (One downside noted on www.epinions.com, however, is the scent.) California-based Redken Laboratories began in 1960 as a way of solving hair dilemmas through science, using protein-based solutions. Today, the headquarters are in New York City and their hair styling products are exported to fifty countries. In 2008, Random House Publishing and Columbia University honored Redken as one of the “Icons of the American Marketplace” along with 256 other trusted American brands.

Paul Mitchell is another leading salon hair care products brand. This year, the 2008 Stylist Choice Awards gave them the “Favorite Styling Gel, Lotion or Mousse” award for Paul Mitchell Sculpting Foam, which was hailed as “a huge accomplishment for a mousse where mousses traditionally were limited in their ability.” It can condition, style and control any kind of frizzy hair. While it’s a bit pricey, consumers and stylists alike cited its value. The Paul Mitchell Extra-Body Sculpting Foam was also nominated for the same award, Paul Mitchell Worked Up was one of the top five “favorite hair sprays,” the Paul Mitchell Spray Wax was named one of the top “favorite specialty styling products,” the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Lavender Mint was nominated for one of the “favorite new shampoos” (and it smells wonderful too), Paul Mitchell The Color was nominated for “favorite color line,” Paul Mitchell Tea Tree was in the finals for “favorite men’s product line” and Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Relaxing Balm made it to one of the “favorite new professional salon hair products.” Last year, Paul Mitchell’s Super Skinny Shampoo won “best shampoo.” Twenty-six-year industry leader Paul Mitchell prides itself on never testing their 65 products on animals and for using natural ingredients.

There are many other salon hair care products nominated for 2008 awards by stylists, salon owners and consumers. Joico made it to the finals for K-PAK Shampoo, K-PAK Conditioner, Joico Design Line Humidity Blocker, and last year Joico’s Joico K-PAK Deep-Penetrating Reconstructor won “best deep conditioner.” Matrix has a few great professional salon hair products as well: Matrix Biolage Conditioning Balm, Matrix SoColor permanent hair dye, Matrix Amplify Root Lifter volumizer and award-winning Vavoom Take Me Higher Root Riser. They were also nominated for “favorite overall product line.” TIGI is renowned for its salon hair styling products like the award-winning Bed Head Manipulator, award-winning Bed Head Hooked Up Mousse Wax, the Bed Head Superstar Queen for a Day Thickening Spray, Bedhead for Men and Bedhead Superstar shampoo/conditioners. PureOlogy won this year’s award for “best shampoo” with their Hydrate Shampoo that is made from a 100% vegan, zero-sulfates formula, packed with aromatherapy and contains anti-fade properties to aid permanent hair dye. Their NanoWorks Restorative Treatment is also a good bet.
