New Year Hair Resolutions – How to Care for Your Hair Like a Pro in 2026

The new year is the perfect time to refresh your hair routine and set healthy hair goals for the months ahead. From regular trims and in-salon treatments to upgrading your home care, small changes can make a big difference to the look and feel of your hair in 2026.

Regular Trims

Best Balayage Staines

Regular trims are essential for keeping your hair healthy, strong and looking its best. By removing split ends before they travel up the hair shaft, trims help prevent breakage, improve overall condition and keep your style looking fresh. Whether you’re growing your hair or maintaining a polished look, booking regular trims supports healthier, more manageable hair all year round.

Nourishing Hair Treatments

Professional nourishing treatments add an extra layer of care, helping to repair damage, strengthen the hair and lock in moisture. Regular professional hair treatments can transform dull or stressed hair and keep it looking salon-fresh for longer.

At Mova Hair Salons in Staines and Virginia Water, our luxury in-salon treatments are designed to repair, strengthen and revitalise your hair from root to tip. From bond-building and colour-protecting formulas to deep hydration and scalp care, each treatment is expertly tailored to your hair’s unique needs. The result? Healthier, shinier, more resilient hair that looks and feels its absolute best.

Salon-Grade Homecare

Best Hair Colour Virginia Water

While in-salon treatments and regular trims are essential for maintaining healthy hair, what you use at home matters just as much. Investing in salon-grade, sulphate-free products helps protect your hair between appointments and keeps it looking its best.

Choose a high-quality shampoo and a hydrating conditioner suited to your hair type, and always use a heat protection spray when styling with hot tools. Our expert stylists in Staines and Virginia Water can recommend the best products to support your hair goals and lifestyle.

Weekly Hair Masks

Weekly hair masks are a simple but powerful way to nourish your hair and boost hydration. They help restore softness, improve shine and keep your hair feeling healthy from root to tip - plus, they’re a lovely excuse for a little self-care at home.

Gentle Hair Care Habits

Best Hair Salon Staines

When it comes to everyday hair care, gentle really is best. After washing, towel-dry your hair using a soft patting motion rather than rubbing — ideally with a microfibre towel. Detangle carefully, starting from the ends and working upwards to avoid unnecessary breakage.

For extra TLC, consider sleeping on a silk pillowcase. It reduces friction while you sleep, helping to prevent breakage, frizz and dryness.
