Healthy, radiant shine is the signature of great hair — and Ross Township clients know that glow doesn’t come from luck; it comes from care, consistency, and clean products.


At Craft Collective Salon Group, we’ve created a shine system that combines sustainable salon treatments with easy at-home habits.


Here’s how to keep your color luminous, your texture silky, and your hair healthy between every appointment.


1. Understanding Shine at the Source

Shine isn’t just surface gloss — it’s the reflection of a healthy hair cuticle. When hair is smooth and sealed, it reflects light naturally. When it’s rough or dry, light scatters and dullness appears.


Our Ross Township stylists specialize in restoring that reflection through professional glossing, deep hydration, and bond repair treatments.


Learn more in The Cranberry Glossing & Shine Revival Experience.


2. Professional Glossing Treatments

The quickest route to long-lasting shine? A custom gloss at your next visit.

Our stylists use Wella Shinefinity and Aveda Botanical Repair Gloss to:

  • Add translucent depth without altering tone.

  • Seal the cuticle for a smoother texture.

  • Protect color from environmental stressors.

  • Restore pH balance after coloring or heat styling.


These treatments last up to eight weeks and enhance both natural and colored hair.


3. Daily Shine Habits for Ross Township Clients

Shine maintenance begins at home. Try these simple, stylist-approved steps:

  • Wash smart: Use sulfate-free, hydrating cleansers like R+Co Gemstone or Aveda Nutriplenish.

  • Cool rinse: Always finish with cool water to close the cuticle.

  • Minimal heat: Air-dry 70% before blow-drying.

  • Hydrate regularly: Apply Wella Oil Reflections Light Serum 2–3 times a week.

4. Sustainable Shine Practices

Shine doesn’t have to come at the cost of the environment. At Craft Collective Salon Group, our Ross Township stylists take an eco-conscious approach to every glossing and styling service.

We use:

  • Biodegradable foils and gloves

  • Refillable color systems

  • Energy-efficient tools

  • Vegan, cruelty-free gloss formulas

5. Treatments That Lock in Radiance

Pair your gloss with targeted salon treatments for enhanced results:

  • R+Co Bleu Optical Illusion Oil Treatment — smooths and seals.

  • Aveda Botanical Repair Mask — rebuilds inner strength.

  • Wella FusionPlex Treatment — restores elasticity and hydration.


Your stylist can recommend the right combination based on your texture and color goals.


6. Protecting Shine from Pittsburgh Weather

Humidity, heating, and cold air all impact shine. To preserve that healthy glow in Ross Township’s shifting climate:

  • Avoid overwashing — 2–3 times per week is enough.

  • Use a heat protectant like R+Co Bleu Essential Hair Tonic.

  • Sleep on silk pillowcases to reduce friction and frizz.

7. Shine as a Reflection of Healthy Hair

The goal isn’t just temporary gloss — it’s long-term vitality. Our clients love that every glossing service doubles as a treatment for healthier, more resilient hair.

At Craft Collective, we believe beauty should look radiant and feel strong.
