What Is a Hair Gloss and Why Is Everyone Talking About It?
If your hair is looking dull, faded, or lacking shine, a hair gloss might be exactly what it needs. Hair gloss treatments have become one of the most requested salon services because they help refresh color, add shine, and improve the overall look and feel of the hair.
What Is Hair Gloss?
A hair gloss is a treatment that adds shine and enhances the tone of the hair. It can be clear to boost shine or tinted to adjust or refresh hair color. Hair glosses are often used after color services, but they can also be done on their own.
Depending on the formula, a gloss can help:
Add shine and softness
Refresh faded hair color
Neutralize unwanted tones
Improve the appearance of dry or dull hair
Enhance dimension in highlights or balayage
Who Can Benefit From a Hair Gloss?
Hair gloss treatments work for almost everyone. Whether you have blonde, brunette, red, or gray hair, a gloss can help maintain your color and keep your hair looking fresh between appointments.
Blondes often use glosses to reduce brassiness, while brunettes can enhance richness and shine. For red tones, a gloss can help maintain vibrancy and prevent fading.
How Long Does a Hair Gloss Last?
Most hair gloss treatments last between four to six weeks, depending on your hair type, washing routine, and the products you use at home. Using color-safe shampoo and avoiding excessive heat can help extend the results.
Why Add a Hair Gloss to Your Routine?
If you love shiny, healthy-looking hair, a gloss is an easy way to maintain your color and keep your hair looking refreshed between appointments. It is a quick salon service that can make a noticeable difference without requiring a full color appointment.
Whether you want to brighten your blonde, deepen your brunette, or simply add extra shine, a hair gloss can help your hair look its best.
Your Guide to Our Hair Gloss Services
Our Color Touch-Up (Gray Roots or Gloss) service gives clients two options based on their needs.
For gray coverage, we apply professional permanent color to the roots using a formula suited to your hair type for seamless coverage and a polished finish.
For guests looking to refresh their blonde or maintain their existing tone, we use the color formula already on file to restore shine, refresh the tone, and help extend the life of your color. It is a great option between blonding appointments when you want your hair to look freshly done again.
Add Extra Shine with Sparkle & Shine
Our Sparkle & Shine service is designed to boost shine, softness, and the overall appearance of your hair. This treatment leaves hair looking glossy, smooth, and refreshed without changing your color.
It is perfect as a finishing service after a color appointment or as a standalone refresh when your hair needs a little extra shine.
The Perfect Add-On
Hair gloss treatments are an easy way to maintain your color between appointments and keep your hair looking its best. Whether you are refreshing your tone, adding shine, or extending the life of your color, a gloss is a simple service that delivers noticeable results.
Ask your stylist if a gloss or shine treatment would be the perfect add-on for your next appointment. Your hair may only need a little refresh to bring back that day-one salon shine.
What Clients Say VS What We Actually Recommend
Sometimes the problem isn’t your hair, it’s the solution you’ve been told to try.
Our expert stylists hear the same concerns every day: faded balayage, flat curls, dryness, breakage, lack of volume, and more. In this series, we’re sharing what clients usually ask for versus what we actually recommend behind the chair, plus the honest fixes that make the biggest difference for healthier, better-looking hair long term.
March Stylist Spotlight— Exo!
Some stylists have a signature style. Others have a signature approach. With Exo, it’s both. Her work is defined by instinct, precision, and a strong eye for color and design that shows up in every service.
Her strongest work lives in color services like foilayage, bleach and tone, and color corrections, where detail matters most and no two appointments are ever the same. She also thrives in creative, punk-inspired cuts, where shape and personality come together in a way that feels expressive without losing balance or wearability.
Clients describe Exo as someone who brings a rare level of intention to every appointment. She takes the time to truly listen, carefully considers desired outcomes, and clearly explains what is possible before beginning any service. Many clients leave feeling an entirely new level of confidence in their hair, often describing their results as the best they have ever had.
Beyond her technical skill, clients consistently highlight her personality in the chair. The experience is described as easy, warm, and enjoyable, with a natural ability to make people feel comfortable and at ease throughout the process.
Every appointment with Exo is shaped by care, intention, and a commitment to results that feel both personal and transformative.
Our approach to more mindful beauty at Fix
At Fix, we’re always looking for ways to make our salon experience more mindful, from the products we use to the way we work behind the chair.
This includes choosing brands and tools that are working toward lower environmental impact, reducing waste where possible, and supporting more responsible practices in the beauty industry.
Every visit to Fix supports a more mindful and intentional approach to beauty.
Thank you for being part of it.

Can Your Matcha Habit Really Cause Hair Loss? Here’s the Truth!
Matcha has gone from ancient tea ceremony staple to modern zeitgeist. It’s creamy, earthy, and the drink of choice for anyone chasing calm focus without the caffeine crash. But lately, TikTok and Instagram have been buzzing with claims that this trendy green powder could be linked to hair loss. For wellness lovers who start their mornings with a whisk and frother, that’s a pretty alarming thought.
So, is matcha secretly sabotaging your hair? Or is this just another internet panic moment? Let’s separate fact from fear — and share how you can protect your hair without giving up your favorite drink.
What We Know So Far
Matcha contains tannins, compounds that can interfere with how your body absorbs non-heme iron (the type found in plant-based foods). If you’re already prone to low iron or drink matcha right before or after meals, it might make it harder for your body to get the iron it needs. And since low iron is one of the most common nutritional causes of hair shedding, you can see how the dots connect.
But before you blame your matcha latte, there’s more to the story.
The Other Side of the Cup
Matcha also happens to be loaded with antioxidants, especially EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), which has been studied for its potential to support scalp health and protect hair follicles from DHT, a hormone linked to thinning. So while overdoing it can affect iron levels, moderate matcha drinking may actually help fight inflammation and oxidative stress, both of which play a role in hair loss.
In other words: the problem isn’t matcha itself, it’s how and how much you’re consuming.
How to Keep Both Your Matcha and Your Hair
Keep your matcha at least one hour away from meals, especially iron-rich ones.
Eat plenty of iron sources like lean meats, lentils, and leafy greens.
Pair meals with vitamin C (like citrus or berries) to help absorb more iron.
Limit your intake to one serving a day — that’s plenty for the benefits.
Treatments to Help if You’re Already Noticing Hair Thinning
If you’ve spotted more strands in your brush lately, don’t panic — but do take action. At Fix Salon Seattle, we offer treatments that target scalp health and strengthen fragile hair from within.
Recommended Fix Salon Treatment:
Customized Gloss & Trim: Freshens up your ends for fuller, shinier-looking hair.
Hair And Scalp Therapy: Enjoy an experience that will cleanse, treat, and revive your hair and scalp. Add this treatment to your service for a first class experience.
Recommended Home Care Products:
Redken Acidic Bonding Treatment: Repairs internal bonds, restoring strength and softness.
Kérastase Genesis Ritual: Fortifies weak hair and reduces breakage caused by daily stress.
The Bottom Line
Matcha isn’t the enemy. It’s all about balance — the right timing, smart nutrition, and consistent care. Enjoy your matcha guilt-free, and let your hair shine just as bright as that perfect green foam.
Book your strengthening or scalp treatment at and let’s keep your hair happy, healthy, and thriving with or without your morning matcha. 💚
No Bleach, No Problem: Why the No-Bleach Brunette Is Going Viral
Looking for a rich, natural brunette that feels soft, dimensional, and healthy without spending hours in the chair? A no-bleach brunette might be your perfect match.
This technique uses high-lift color instead of traditional lightener, creating depth and shine while maintaining the hair’s natural strength. It’s ideal for anyone who wants a refined, low-maintenance color that looks effortless and stays vibrant longer.
No-Bleach Techniques: Brunette, Highlights & Balayage
When it comes to creating luminous, healthy-looking color, “no bleach” doesn’t mean “no dimension.” There are several ways to achieve brightness and movement without traditional lightener.
The Perfect Client for No-Bleach Brunette
Natural Hair: Anyone with black to lightest brown virgin hair (meaning no previous permanent color) is a great candidate.
Healthy Canvas: Because the process doesn’t involve bleach, it works best on hair that hasn’t been permanently dyed all over.
Loves Natural Dimension: Perfect for clients who want to enhance their tone with richness and subtle glow—not a dramatic transformation.
Why Go Bleach-Free?
We love what bleach can do, but it’s not always necessary. For many brunettes, high-lift color provides enough lift to reveal beautiful warmth and lightness while toning in a single step. That means:
Less time in the salon chair
A smoother, more seamless grow-out
Longer-lasting tone and shine
The Takeaway
If your hair is naturally dark and you’ve never colored it before, a no-bleach brunette offers the best of both worlds: radiant dimension and lasting integrity. It’s a perfect choice for anyone who loves a natural, low-maintenance glow with a luxurious feel.
Could a no-bleach brunette be your next color moment? Here are Fix Salon Services to Explore:
No-Bleach Brunette Transformation – For rich, multi-dimensional color with one-step lift and tone
Gloss & Tone Refresh – To maintain warmth, shine, and tone longevity
No-Bleach Balayage or Partial Dimensional Highlights – For customizable glow and natural dimension
Hair Health Consultation – To determine if your hair is ready for a bleach-free transformation
Every no-bleach look is customized to your natural tone, texture, and goals. Book a consultation to see which technique is right for you—your perfect, bleach-free brunette awaits.

5 Haircuts to Try This Fall 🍂
Fall is the perfect time to refresh your look. As the seasons shift, so do the trends—and this year’s haircuts are all about effortless style with a polished edge. Here are five must-try cuts for fall that will have you feeling fresh, confident, and totally on-trend.
1. The Soft Bob
Chic, low-maintenance, and endlessly versatile. A soft, chin-to-shoulder length bob frames the face beautifully and pairs well with cozy fall layers. Add waves for a relaxed vibe or keep it sleek for something more refined.
2. Long Layers
If you’re not ready for a big chop, long layers are a great way to add shape and movement without losing length. Layers work especially well with fall blowouts and loose curls, giving your hair body while keeping it easy to style.
3. Curtain Bangs
Still trending strong this season! Curtain bangs give that effortless, face-framing softness that works with any haircut—whether your hair is long, layered, or in a bob. Bonus: they look amazing peeking out from under your favorite fall hat.
4. The Shag Revival
The modern shag is back, and it’s cooler than ever. Think textured layers, a little bit of edge, and tons of movement. This cut is perfect if you want a laid-back style that still feels fashion-forward.
5. Blunt Cut Lob
For those who love clean lines, the blunt lob (long bob) is a timeless choice. Hitting just above the shoulders, it’s sleek, bold, and easy to style—especially for fall evenings out.
Ready to switch up your look this season? Book your fall haircut with us today and step into autumn feeling fabulous!

2025 VMAs: Hair Highlights & Trends
The VMAs are always a runway for bold, creative hair choices, and this year did not disappoint. Here are the standout styles and what made them memorable.
Doja Cat
Doja Cat wore a blonde, side-swept, heavily layered cut with lots of volume — very ’80s rock glam.
The layers were choppy and textured (not smooth Hollywood waves), which gave the style a bit of edge. Pairing that with the blonde tone and sweeping it dramatically to one side amplified the retro feel while keeping it fresh and playful for the carpet.
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Side-Swept ’80s Layers
Ask for choppy, layered blonde cuts with lots of volume
Request a deep side part and sweeping layers to frame the face
Mention you want a retro ’80s glam vibe with texture and movement
Sabrina Carpenter
Sabrina Carpenter brought old-school glamour to the 2025 VMAs with her voluminous Hollywood waves in icy blonde. The waves added movement and dimension, while the sleek finish kept everything elegant and refined. It was a classic red-carpet choice elevated by her modern icy tone, proving that timeless glam never goes out of style.
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Voluminous Hollywood Waves
Ask for long, soft waves with plenty of volume
Request an icy blonde tone if you want the same cool effect

Tyla

The cut framed her face sharply while the braiding added texture and edge. Her look was polished yet playful, striking the perfect balance between chic sophistication and risk-taking glam. Short, sharp styles can still deliver maximum red-carpet impact!
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Sleek Blunt Bob
Ask for a sharp blunt bob cut that frames your face
Request a deep side part to add dimension
Ask for a smoothing or shine treatment to achieve a polished finish
Latto
Latto arrived at the 2025 VMAs looking radiant with cascading blond waves. Her hair had that soft mermaid-wave movement that caught the light with every turn.
Overall her look balanced glamour with ease making it feel effortless yet red carpet worthy.
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Soft Mermaid Waves
Ask for long, flowing waves with soft texture and shine. Ask for a hair treatment for added shine and a polished finish.
Request a blonde or golden tone that catches the light
Mention that you want a shadow root to add depth
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga’s hair made a bold statement on the 2025 VMA red carpet. Her jet-black updo featured messy volume with blunt short bangs framing her face. Red floral accents and a rose-topped headpiece added a romantic, gothic twist that perfectly complemented her dramatic look.
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Short Blunt Bangs with Long Length for Updos
Ask for a messy updo with volume at the crown
Request short blunt bangs that frame the face
Ask for a treatment for added shine and smoothness
Ice Spice
At the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, Ice Spice captivated the red carpet with a striking pink updo that paid homage to 1990s glam. Departing from her signature curly afro, she embraced a sleek, voluminous upstyle reminiscent of Pamela Anderson's iconic 'do. The hairstyle featured face-framing bangs and soft, textured volume, exuding a playful yet polished vibe.
What to Ask For at Fix Salon:
Short Blunt Bangs with Long Length for Updos
