Does your hair feel a little different than it did five years ago? You're not imagining it—your hair changes as you age, just like your skin. The key to keeping it looking and feeling its best is to evolve your hair care routine along the way. Whether you're living it up in your 20s, managing a busy life in your 30s, or embracing your fabulous 40s and beyond, your hair deserves a little extra attention.
At Salon True, we know clean, non-toxic hair care is the foundation for maintaining beautiful, healthy hair—no matter your age. Let’s dive into how your hair care routine should change in your 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s, so you can keep those locks as vibrant as you are!
In Your 20s: Having Fun, But Staying Smart
Your 20s are the golden years for your hair—it's thick, full of life, and ready to handle all your wild experiments with colour, styles, and trends. But just because your hair is bouncing back now doesn't mean you should ignore good habits!
Embrace Your Natural Texture: Whether you're rocking curls, waves, or sleek straight locks, now's the time to really get to know your natural texture. It's fun to play around with styles, but make sure you’re showing your hair some love by using products that highlight your natural beauty instead of fighting it.
Protect for the Future: Your hair might feel invincible, but trust me, all that heat styling and bleaching can catch up to you later. Start protecting your hair now with a light, organic leave-in conditioner and a good heat protectant. Bonus: It’ll keep your hair shiny and soft in the moment too!
Healthy Habits, Happy Hair: Eating well, staying active, and getting enough sleep aren’t just good for your skin and body—your hair thrives on it too. Load up on nutrient-rich foods and drink plenty of water to keep those strands looking glossy.

In Your 30s: A Little Extra TLC Goes a Long Way
Hello, 30s! Between career, family, and everything in between, life is full and sometimes a bit stressful—and your hair might start to show it. You might notice it thinning slightly or that it’s feeling drier than before. Don’t panic—just adjust!
Addressing Early Signs of Ageing: While you’re juggling all the things, your hair might be giving you subtle signals that it needs more care. You may see your first greys, notice a little thinning, or feel your hair’s texture changing. Now’s the time to switch to hydrating and strengthening products that help your hair stay strong and resilient.
Hydration and Strength: Moisture is your hair’s new best friend in your 30s. Start using a hydrating hair mask once a week and choose shampoos and conditioners that strengthen your hair without weighing it down.
Scalp Health is Everything: A healthy scalp is the foundation for great hair, so don’t forget to exfoliate and keep it balanced with a gentle, organic scalp scrub.
Products to Try:
Scalp Scrub to promote healthy growth
Hydrating Hair Mask for extra moisture
Smoothing Cream for sleek, frizz-free styles
In Your 40s: Nourish, Protect, Repeat
Your 40s are all about working with what you’ve got and embracing changes with grace. As your hormones shift, your hair may get thinner, drier, or more brittle, but it’s nothing a little extra nourishment can’t fix.
Dealing with Thinning & Texture Changes: You might notice your hair feels a little finer or isn’t as full as it used to be. Go easy on tight hairstyles or anything that pulls at your scalp, and lean into products that add volume and strengthen your hair at the same time.
Nourishment is Everything: With your scalp producing fewer natural oils, deep hydration is key. Treat your hair to a luxurious hair oil or reparative deep conditioner once or twice a week to keep it soft and smooth.
Clean Colour Choices: If you’re colouring your hair more frequently to cover greys, make sure you’re using gentle, organic hair dyes that nourish your hair instead of drying it out. Protect that colour with a shampoo and conditioner that’s both clean and colour-safe.
Products to Try:
Nourishing Hair Oil for shiny, smooth ends
Reparative Deep Conditioner to keep your hair strong
Organic, Non-Toxic Hair Dye for gentle, safe colouring
In Your 50s & Beyond: Extra Care for Timeless Hair
Your 50s bring even more changes—hormonal shifts can lead to finer, drier hair that needs a little extra love. But don’t worry—with the right care, your hair can still look fabulous!
Combat Thinning and Dryness: Your hair might feel thinner or more brittle, but it’s nothing some smart styling and nourishing treatments can’t fix. Use lightweight volumizing products that add body without weighing your hair down, and focus on hydrating both your hair and scalp regularly.
Moisture is the Key: Now’s the time to make moisture your top priority. Weekly hair masks, leave-in conditioners, and serums will keep your hair soft, smooth, and full of life.
Don’t Forget Your Scalp: Keep your scalp happy with a nourishing scalp serum that stimulates circulation and promotes healthy growth. Gentle shampoos that cleanse without stripping natural oils are also essential for maintaining balance.

Rich Hair Mask for deep hydration
Leave-In Conditioner for daily moisture and frizz control
Nourishing Scalp Serum to keep your scalp balanced and healthy
