Lathered, Scubbed & Loved digital magazine by Indulge Pure Originals

We started at Indulge Salon York Pa carrying natural body care products out of necessity because my skin was so dry that I scratched till the skin bled. That became problematic for me since I tried other lotions and creams but they burned my skin when I applied them.

Safe body butter lotion bars are moisturizing on dry skin

After I had spent time with a formulator creating the most natural product, zero sulfates, zero chemicals, my skin started to feel better. Even after one use my skin started to heal in a way that I felt comfortable apply more of the Indulge Pure Originals lotion bar because it put a protective barrier on my skin that I didn’t need to worry.

As we progressed with the sales of our products with mom’s-to-be because the Indulge Pure Originals lotion bars are superior to prevent stretch marks. No chemicals. All organic the Gold bar that has shea butter, cocoa butter with zero grease feeling. We started out of necessity but grew into Indulge Pure Originals Moisturizing creams and lotions that are so good for the skin you could almost eat it. We don’t recommend that you eat it, however; if your pet licks it their fur will get most likely be moisturized.

layering our body care products gives the best resuults

Often times we found that our clients would only use one product and expect big results even though they loved our products. We recommend starting with our Indulge Pure Originals soap to cleanse the skin without SLS (ingredient that is horrible for the skin found in most soaps) We believe in the purest ingredients that cleanse with minimal lather for cleansing yet the aromatic approach gives us good feelings for the day. Then after rinsing the skin without the film on your body, we recommend trying one of our four lotion bars to use in the shower to moisturize while wet, then pat dry. Once you pat your body dry then use our Indulge Pure Originals Ultimate Moisturizer that goes on smoothly while the skin is warm. Our creams and lotions are meant to be used with warm skin so the product melts into your skin then when the skin cools off it will work more effectively for you to prevent dry skin. We have had successful results this way. the layering of products in the way to go.

AFTER going from brown to gray

Meet Maggie K from Greensboro, Ga. She is a professional that was tired of coloring her roots every 8 days. She has been toying with the idea to take her hair from brown-to-gray to live more freely. Read more…..

Maggie is a professional that is speaking on stage and has always been aware of how she appears as a professional in front of her peer groups. She travels around the world delivering high performing information to help teachers be able to communicate effectively with their students.

Maggie and her many shades of gray

Other lighting from highlighted brown hair to gray hair

When Maggie and I first entertained the idea of her taking her brown hair to gray, we had some considerations to think of such as:

  1. the pros and cons of gray hair
  2. what if her hair wouldn’t lift as light as we needed it to? Back up color was necessary.
  3. maintenance of gray hair as it naturally grows in
  4. the initial cost to remove the brown highlighted colors

Is platinum right for you?

Maggie wanted to achieve a pretty platinum color that was nice and icy looking to match with her skin tone. Know that when you are working with so many different tones of brown that has highlights and low lights in it, the “what lies beneath” emerges. This becomes a discovery process. I had to use many types of bleaching with an additive that re-bonds the insides of the hair to protect it from breaking.

Lightening hair is time consuming. It is a slow going process that has to be watched. Some areas of the hair or head that might be light enough have to be rinsed or removed early, other areas may be darker and need to be left on longer.  In some cases a strand of hair could be 3 colors from brown to gray on a single strand!! . This where having a professional that has been trained on advanced bleaching is going to give you the best results.

FYI as you decide on the right color goals to go with your skin tone and a back up plan if the hair won’t lighten as much as you would like it to, then the back up plan would be to come in a few weeks to have more lightener applied to keep the integrity of the hair. This is normal procedure when you are trying to lighten as much as you are in one appointment. We recommend 2 – 3 appointments to achieve the level of lightness. We did have to change out Maggie’s makeup with a beige to enhance her skin tone. She looked even younger after the makeup changes to beige foundation, pink lip colors and we even tried colors that we discovered didn’t work for her.

Patience is a key factor in the waiting game to process. Bring a phone, a book, something to do because hair color removal/bleaching when going from brown to gray can take hours. Hours meaning 7 hours sometimes more. Slow as you go is the way to think about hair color removal.

After the initial removal, we were looking for the hair staying healthy while processing especially the ends of the hair. One of the considerations in hair color removal is the ends because of them being lighter, the opportunity for breakage would be higher than normal if we hadn’t taken any precautions. We did use a re-bonding product to help keep the integrity of the hair. Once we were able to rinse the hair out and found we were happy with the raw underlying  color, then we were able to pursue the right tone.

Choose the tone of gray wisely

When choosing a tone of gray when going from brown to gray, this is a visual adjustment for the person wearing these new colors. You might look at Pinterest or Instagram and think you will like the color but if the color you want is not held up against your skin tone, you might have the adverse affect with your skin tone and have to rethink or redo the color to make it work for you. This is a time consuming process but an important process all the same.

Try a wig on to get an idea if you like yourself in gray

I recommend trying on wigs BEFORE you make a big comittment to changing your hair color from brown to gray or red to gray to make sure you will be happy with the transition. Going from blonde to gray is easier because of the lighter shades.

Transitioning from brown to gray can be an adjustment visually  with your eyes, skin tone, and getting used to looking at yourself in the mirror can take about two weeks.  The maintenance on gray hair will still be a comittment by using Fabuloso color conditioner that keeps the direct dye pigments in the lightened hair. Keeping the hair toned every two to 4 weeks in the beginning will help your gray hair have longevity  is  essential to maintaining the gray tones because the underlying yellow in naturally dark hair can start to surface within a week or longer depending on how often you wash your hair, which shampoo and conditioning products are used all have affects on the hair. Those Fabuloso color tones can help keep the yellow at bay.

Do your research by having a color consultation done with Indulge Salon York Pa. You could even go to a paint store pick out some gray paint swatches that you like, hold them to your skin or take them home in the lighting that you are in the most to see if you like yourself in those colors. Color tones do matter. Some gray hair color tones have blue, beige, yellow or violet which all those tones can make a difference in your skin tone.

If you are interested in going from brown to gray, call us at 717.846.4424 or 706.999.9911 for a consultation prior to having the service done. We feel it is a privilege to provide good information for you to make a good decision on your color choices.

Indulge Salon has just released healthy living magazine

Lathered Magazine Edition 2

Lathered, Scrubbed, & Loved digital magazine by Indulge Pure Originals

Lathered, Scrubbed, & Loved! Read on…

As of 2011, Kimberly, the owner and founder of Indulge Pure Originals had extremely dry skin that caused her to seek out a formulator to create a product that moisturized without burning the dry itchy skin. We have so many stories to talk about when it comes to creating a product that doesn’t harm the dry skin that is normally dry and cracked. It hurts. Why would we want to create a product that would knowingly hurt you?

As we moved into 2018, we went from our famous Indulge Pure Originals body butter bars that are the core of our skin care selection that can be used in the shower. The Healthy Living magazine talks about great skin care, CollagenBlu that gives you the strength in your bones and muscles also helpful for anti-aging. As we age our skin loses the elasticity. We shouldn’t ever underestimate the stress levels on our bodies.

Yes, we do turn over cells every month but as we age, we are turning them over slowly. The CollagenBlu is a product we believe in that helps turn those cells over with protein from the sea. Read more here.

We grew over the past 7 years from our Indulge Pure Originals body butter bars that provide lotion in a bar to Ultimate Moisturizing creams that are like going from the natural product directly into the jar. No preservatives that harm skin. We then started with the lotions and soaps to bath salts that are de-stressing for our clients.

Our products are located physically for distribution in York Pa at Indulge Salon, 970 S George Street, York, Pa, 17403 and our Lake Oconee, Indulge Salon 1104 Market St, Greensboro, Ga 30642 phone 706.999.9911. Feel free to walk in the salons to see and smell.

We were approached by Kevin Harrington’s group for Shark Tank and “AS SEEN ON TV” but Kimberly and team were not ready for that. We love being local, we love being here for you our readers and subscribers and physical clients. We were able to use your feedback on our products because we cared about what you had to say about what you wanted in your product.

Our fragrances were not over powering but more of a soft scent that build on each layering of soap, body butter bar and cream to give the long lasting results that only Indulge Pure Originals can give.

We thought it out and remembered the story of a fragrance or scent that reminds us of a good time, a person that you loved spending time with. I also learned that with scent can help cancer patients not have adverse affects when going through chemotherapy treatments. I learned this from our Aveda days when we carried their products in our salon. The philosophy was to try to minimize the negative affects of chemotherapy by smelling the pleasant scents that we provide to offset the vomiting and nausea that can happen.

Our fragrances come in unscented (no added fragrance oil), Citrus Bliss has a citrus orange scent, Love has a floral peony scent, Coconut that smells like when you go to the beach smelling tanning oils, Eyptian Musk has a sexy fragrance that is hard to describe because it is more customized to your own body chemistry. Our Almond Milk and honey has been the best seller in our soap because it has natural exfoliants that are excellent for waxing clients or clients that shave.

Currently, the Lathered, Scrubbed & Loved healthy living digital magazine launched in January of 2018 to bring to the forefront healthy lifestyle contributors from nutrition, to the educational point of view of extracts, oils, skin care regimes, workout ideas, financial, holiday gift giving, ideas for anniversary’s, weddings, and just general over all health and topics that we can apply to every day life. If you feel that you can offer some sage advice that would match up with what we have going on here at Lathered, Scrubbed & Loved healthy living magazine, please feel free to contact us at help@indulgepureoriginals.com. My daughter Alex is the editor of Lathered, Scrubbed & Loved healthy living digital magazine that can be downloaded to be printed out.
