Ask a Stylist ✂️ | How Long Are Hair Products Actually Good For?

Did you know your hair products have a shelf life? 👀 Most products have a small open-jar symbol on the packaging with a number like 12M, 18M, or 24M. That tells you how many months the product is recommended to be used after opening.

For example, 24M = 24 months after opening. 🗓️

If you’re not sure how old a product is, also pay attention to changes in smell, color, texture, or consistency—those can be signs it’s time to replace it.

Next time you grab your shampoo, conditioner, or styling product, flip it over and look for that little jar! 👀

✨ LONG HAIR = WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER ✨

When you’re working with this much hair, technique and efficiency are everything. 🙌🏼

For this transformation, I’m using extra-long foils with a balayage board, zigzag sections, weaving + teasing, and strategic lightener placement to create a soft, seamless blend with no harsh lines. 🤍

It’s all about saturation, control, and that beautiful diffused transition. ✨

✨ How to maintain this blonde:
To keep those highlights bright, cool, and ashy, I recommend using a Fanola purple hair mask as needed. Unlike purple shampoo, which can sometimes leave the hair feeling dry with frequent use, a purple mask helps neutralize unwanted yellow tones while conditioning and adding softness and shine. 💜
