As the seasons begin to shift, it is the perfect time to refresh your hair color and scalp care routine. At Salon Ziba NYC, our expert stylists stay ahead of trends and technology to keep your hair looking its absolute best. We spoke with two of our talented team members, Elizabeth and Alex, to share their professional insights for transitioning out of winter with healthy, luminous hair.
Winter’s End Color Tips with Elizabeth
Elizabeth is known among her clients as a true aficionado of creative color. Frequently dipping her brush into blues, purples, smoky silvers, pastel pops, and soft lavenders, she has built a loyal following of guests who love expressive, fashion forward hues.
However, when it comes to the seasonal transition, Elizabeth recommends a strategic approach.
“Transitioning from winter to spring, it is best to opt for richer, deeper tones like espresso, mocha, or deep red to combat dullness,” Elizabeth explains. “For blondes, adding warmth to honey blonde or caramel highlights with a gloss treatment can instantly boost shine.
Her winter recovery advice is equally important. She encourages clients to:
- Reduce frequent washing
- Use lukewarm water instead of hot
- Incorporate deep conditioning masques to repair cold weather damage
As an exclusive L’Oréal salon, Salon Ziba has access to over 100 years of color innovation. Elizabeth often works with advanced systems such as Redken Shades EQ glosses to reduce alkalinity, strengthen sensitized hair, and improve overall texture. For clients seeking an ammonia free option,
INOA color provides exceptional shine while helping minimize scalp irritation. Elizabeth emphasizes that professional aftercare is essential.
“Following your color service with a curated home care routine is key. Your colorist knows exactly what your hair needs after your service.”
Elizabeth is available for consultations Wednesday through Sunday at Salon Ziba’s flagship location.
Kerastase K Scan Q and A with Alex
Salon Ziba’s In House Kerastase Ambassador
To complement beautiful color, scalp health must come first. We sat down with Alex, Salon Ziba’s in house Kérastase ambassador, to discuss the powerful K Scan technology now available in salon.
Salon Ziba is one of the few salons in New York equipped with this advanced diagnostic tool.
What is the K Scan?
Kérastase K Scan is an AI powered handheld microscopic camera used for in depth, personalized scalp and hair analysis. Using white light, UV, and cross polarized technology, it detects dandruff, sebum levels, hair density, and scalp irritation.
This allows stylists to recommend highly tailored in salon treatments and at home routines while also tracking progress with before and after imagery.
How accurate is the K Scan’s analysis?
According to Alex, the technology is extremely precise. The system has been trained on a dataset of more than 12,000 images across diverse hair and scalp types.
Its machine learning algorithm was developed in house by L’Oréal scalp and hair experts, ensuring reliable and personalized results.
Can K Scan be used for all hair types?
Yes. The technology was specifically designed to work across all hair types for both men and women, making it a versatile diagnostic tool for virtually every Salon Ziba guest.
Beyond his ambassador role, Alex is a highly accomplished technician with many years behind the chair. Salon Ziba also entrusts him with internal education, where he helps train and mentor the next generation of stylists.
