Does My Hair Need a Professional Treatment?
Colouring, lightening, heated styling, sun exposure and even everyday brushing can all affect the condition of your hair over time.
You might notice that your hair feels rougher than usual, tangles more easily or lacks its usual shine. It may become harder to style, feel frizzy or fluffy, or begin to break more easily when brushing. Coloured and lightened hair can also benefit from regular treatments to help maintain its condition between appointments.
Your hair does not need to be badly damaged to enjoy a professional treatment. Sometimes it simply needs extra moisture, softness or shine to bring it back to its best.
When Should I Choose an WELLAPLEX Treatment?
WELLAPLEX is particularly popular with clients whose hair is coloured, lightened or regularly exposed to heat.
Hair contains bonds that contribute to its internal structure and strength. Chemical services, heated styling tools and environmental factors can damage these bonds, leaving the hair feeling weaker and more prone to breakage.
WELLAPLEX is designed to help repair and maintain damaged bonds within the hair. It can often be added to a colour appointment or used as a separate salon treatment, depending on the condition of your hair and the service you are having.
Your Headfirst stylist may recommend WELLAPLEX if your hair has been lightened, feels fragile or is beginning to break more easily. It can also be useful during a colour transformation when maintaining the strength and condition of the hair is especially important.
When Should I Choose a Wella Hair Treatment?
Professional Wella treatments can help with concerns including dryness, dullness, frizz and a lack of manageability.
If your hair feels dehydrated, we may recommend a moisturising treatment to improve softness and make it easier to style. Hair that has lost its shine may benefit from a treatment that leaves it looking smoother, healthier and more polished.
Wella treatments are also a lovely addition to a regular cut, colour or blow-dry when your hair needs an extra boost. Your stylist will select the treatment according to your hair type, its current condition and the result you would like to achieve.
We also offer Wella SmoothFiller for clients who want longer-lasting help with frizz, smoothness and manageability.

Can I Add a Hair Treatment to My Usual Appointment?
In many cases, a professional treatment can be added to your usual colour, cutting or blow-dry appointment.
It is an easy way to give your hair some extra care without arranging a completely separate visit. As some treatments require more time than others, please mention that you are interested when booking your appointment. We can then allow enough time to assess your hair and carry out the right treatment for you.
How Can I Care for My Hair Between Salon Visits?
Professional salon treatments can deliver more intensive, targeted care, while the right products at home help you maintain the results between appointments. The two work best together.
Both Wella and WELLAPLEX offer home haircare masks and treatments, which are available to buy from our Leeds salon. These can help you maintain moisture, strength, softness and manageability as part of your regular haircare routine.
With so many products available, it can be difficult to know which one your hair actually needs. Our stylists can recommend the most suitable home treatment for your hair, explain how often to use it and show you how to get the best from it.
