| 0:00.0 | Coming up are the highlights of the full episode. |
| 0:09.1 | Hey everybody, Donovan here, producer of the Hair Game podcast. |
| 0:12.9 | Our new Salon Republic location in West Hollywood on Santa Monica Boulevard is opening in just a few weeks, so book a tour, come down, see it in person, |
| 0:21.1 | and reserve your space. Also, our location in Westwood is opening this fall, and a second |
| 0:27.3 | location in Encino as well. Go to Salonanipublic.com or our link in bio to book your tour. |
| 0:34.1 | All right, on to our second episode with Erica Six. What is the importance? So what can |
| 0:41.2 | water do? What can it mean to your service? So this is something I actually talk about all the time |
| 0:46.4 | with my clients because as a one specialist, the hair can get extremely brassy from having |
| 0:52.6 | mineral buildup, which is super common in my area. So a lot of women |
| 0:57.4 | that they leave platinum, they come back orange. And I'm like, oh my gosh, like this is, this can't |
| 1:02.3 | work. So I've done a lot of research on understanding all the different minerals, what they cause, |
| 1:07.0 | how to prevent it and just I practice what I preach. So I would say water like with minerals can |
| 1:12.9 | discolor your hair. They make it dry. They make it brittle. It can be prone to breakage. And I would say |
| 1:19.4 | it puts like a coating. It can weigh it down. It can just make it really dull. It does all the |
| 1:24.6 | things that you do not want your hair to be. So I would say it's highly impactful. So the simplest |
| 1:29.6 | thing is to have at least a filter on your shower. And in the salon, we also have those showerheads, |
| 1:35.9 | the ecoheads, which are great. And they really greatly minimize like all the things. And so the water |
| 1:42.0 | pressure is really great. And I would say if you want to go really over the top, which is what I do, I use distilled water to wash my hair. So I am, I'm a crazy person. No, you don't. I sure do. I have videos. I'll have to send you one. Like I literally have multiple videos where I'm like actually showing myself. I just dump the jug right on my hair, like in the |
| 2:02.0 | shower. That's literally what I do to wash my hair is I grab distilled water from the grocery |
| 2:06.4 | store and I wash my hair with it from start to finish. And I do that every single time that I |
| 2:12.0 | wash my hair. I am a psycho. Distilled. Distilled water comes in one gallon jugs, right? |
| 2:20.1 | We have to buy it for a number of things around the house. |
