Should You Wash Your Hair Before Going to the Salon?

Should you wash your hair before going to the salon?

As a general rule, you should not wash your hair immediately before going to the salon. Arriving with "day-old clean" hair (washed 24 hours prior) is ideal for most services. Natural scalp oils protect your skin during hair coloring, while slightly lived-in texture allows stylists to accurately see your natural fall during haircuts.
