I will start by saying; On behalf of the Pomme Squad, THANK YOU!! To our healthcare and front line workers, who are working tirelessly to ensure the safety of all of our communities. Each and every one of you are your own super hero!
Many of you have reached out, asking how you can care for your hair with the recent increase in excessive hair washing, longer shifts and safety measures being put into action. Here is what we have learned; your scalp is sore from wearing your hair SO TIGHT, your lengths and ends are insanely dry and brittle, and your roots feel gross and over washed. How can you get some moisture back, relieve some of your scalp pain and rejuvenate your hair. I want to keep it simple, and I want to make it easy for each and every one of you. Below you will find a breakdown for TWO different categories. Choose the category MOST like your hair! We have chosen products that will work on all hair types, with a focus on hydration!

Category 1 : Fine-Medium hair
(DRY, BRITTLE, MAY STRUGGLE WITH FRIZZ)
Main issues : Hair is feeling extremely dry on the ends, breaking from wearing it up so tight and excessive washing.
POMME SOLUTION:
Shampoo: Bain Chromatique – This SULPHATE free shampoo will be more gentle on the hair, leaving it clean, soft and nourished. The lightweight formula won’t weigh the hair down, yet you will get a deep nourished result!
Conditioner: Lait Vital – This conditioner will not leave hair weighed down, but it will leave it very hydrated, great for a daily because it won’t make it feel greasy with excessive use!
ALTERNATE SHAMPOO DAYS WITH CLEANSING CONDITIONER
Shu Uemura Cleansing Milk : Made up of 80% conditioner and 20% shampoo, use this on alternating days of your shampoo + conditioner. You will get a nourished end result, and the 20% shampoo will clean the hair the way you need it to, this is a really great product to use during heave shampoo rotation. If you are washing multiple times a day this is a MUST.
Hair Masque : Silk Bloom Masque – Will repair any damage, our STAR masque! Deeply nourishing, great for all hair types and leaves the hair soft, shiny, repaired and smells fresh and beautiful!
HOT TIP** A hair masque is a concentrated version of a daily conditioner, it only goes into the first two layers of the hair and washes out every time you wash your hair, I would recommend using a masque as a daily conditioner if you are washing daily!
Treatment : Fusio Home Lab Nutrition – The fusio treatments will penetrate directly INSIDE the hair and give the hair all of the direct nutrients that it needs. These treatments will hydrate the hair from the inside out, and STAY in your hair. – Use these treatments every two weeks during heavy shampoo rotations. These will transform your hair back to life.
Shu Uemura All-in-one-milk : This spray is your one and done! It has heat protection if you need to blowdry, but is great for air drying. It will instantly smooth the fibre, and add hydration into the hair. You can easily spray in and go, filling your hair with all the nutrients you need. It will not weigh your hair down!
Kerastase 8hr magic night serum – This is great to use during your shift! This cream goes deeper into the hair, and has a slow moisture release! Every two hours hydration

These products will help to replenish hydration and bring your hair back to life! Below are additional tips and tricks:
- Try not to pull your hair up WET. When our hair is wet it is the most vulnerable. When pulled up wet it will cause breakage, and being pulled so tight the water just sitting on the cuticle will actually cause it to try out more! IF you have to pull it up when make sure you are applying one of your leave-in products prior!
- Use your microfibre hair turban post shower. This will absorb the water out of the hair, so if you are in a rush and need to pull it up wet, this will absorb all the excess water out!
- Braid it if you can – if you can braid your hair, briad it into two braids and then wrap the ends into two low buns.
- Give yourself a scalp massage in the shower! Gently massage your scalp in circular motions in the shower, this will wake it up, and help to stop hair fall.
- Make sure you are brushing your hair to keep the blood flowing!
- Apply your oil or night cream as many times a day as you can!
