About

Hi! 

I’m Sarah, the face (and hair!) behind “Care About Your Hair”. I’d like to introduce myself and let you know a little bit more about me and the reasons I started this website. 

I’ve been fascinated by hair care for as long as I can remember. I can recall sneaking into my mum’s room, climbing onto her dresser and spraying myself with her hairspray when I was just a toddler. She was not happy! 

As I grew older, I became fascinated by trying different styles, and playing with any hair products I could afford. As much as I loved hair and fashion, I was also a bit of a science nerd in school, and through studying chemistry I started to learn about the science behind hair care and hair products. 

These days I spend my days as a legal secretary, but I still love getting dressed up for the evening any chance I can and that means making sure my hair looks perfect – or at least interesting! 😊 

Naturally, my hair is a chestnut brown colour, and I try to avoid too much dying or bleaching these days to keep it healthy, but over the years I’ve been blonde, redhead, and even green in my teen years! That means I’ve picked up some tips along the way and found the styles that work different cuts and colours. 

My Motivation 

My motivation for starting this blog came from wanting to share the tips I’d learned along my hair care journey and the satisfaction of knowing that I can help others explore new styles, techniques, and products. I’d like to think I can make a positive impact on other people and give them confidence to try out hairstyling ideas. 

I also relished the opportunity to collaborate with my favourite hair care brands and new haircare companies with innovative new products. 

My Goals: 

Through a combination of in-depth product reviews, haircare tutorials, styling tips, and opinion pieces about the latest style trends, I hope to be able to connect with a growing audience of hair styling enthusiasts like yourself. 

I’m not here to give you iron-clad rules about what you should or shouldn’t do with your hair – if you want to dye it, braid it, or even shave it off, the most important thing is that you have hair that makes you feel confident. I’m just here to give my own opinions about hair care and hopefully others can find some benefit from what I have to say. 

As well as being passionate about hair, I’m also passionate about the planet, so i always try and include eco-friendly products where possible. 

My Daily Hair Rituals: 

So, here’s what you really came for – my daily hair care routine! Obviously, this varies depending on which style I’m rocking, but there are some steps which I make sure to do every day.  

• First up is some TLC with my favourite shampoo and conditioner. I can’t tell you what the perfect shampoo and conditioner is for your hair type, you need to discover that for yourself – I have some articles about this but it’s a matter of trial and error. However, when you find the perfect combination it’s almost magical how much of a difference it makes.

• Next up, it’s time to protect my hair from heat damage. I always reach for a heat styling product. This adds an extra barrier between my hair and my styling tool of choice. This helps to seal in moisture and prevent frizz and dryness. I want to keep my hair protected as well as looking great.

• And speaking of styling tools, I have to shout out my GHDs. These have been by my side through thick and thin. They help me create most of my looks, from sleek, straight styles to bouncy curls.

• I finish everything off with a hearty spray of my favourite hairspray (yes, MINE not my mother’s this time) 

Hair Care Items I Can’t Live Without: 

There are a few must-have hair items for me. 

Dyson AirWrap –  

The tool has been a real game-changer for me. It’s completely revolutionized the way I style my hair. It can create stunning curls effortlessly or create soft waves with minimal effort. It comes with nearly a dozen accessories to create a variety of styles. I’ve been using it for months and feel like I’ve only just scratched the surface of what it can do.  

GHDs – 

Of course, no list would be complete without mentioning my beloved GHDs. If you’re reading this, I assume you probably already own a set, and if you don’t – BUY SOME NOW! They are quite simply the best hair straighteners I’ve tried and give me salon-worthy results every time. 

Dyson Supersonic hairdryer –  

When I first saw the price tag on the Dyson supersonic hairdryer, I was sceptical. But months later, after having one used on my hair at a fancy salon, I immediately bought one for myself. The heat control is just perfect, and I don’t think I could go back to just using a basic Hot/Cold hairdryer now. I’ve noticed that my hair looks healthier and more lustrous than before, and I think that is because I’m not blasting it with high heat every day anymore. 

As you can see, I’m a bit of a hair styling obsessive. So, I’m grateful to have people to share my passion with. If you like what I have to say in my blogs, please share them on social media or send them to a friend that you think would like them too. I’d like to build a community of hair styling enthusiasts that can benefit from each other’s passion and knowledge. 

I want you all to enjoy this site, and please feel free to get in touch if you have a product you would like me to review or a style you want me to try out.
