In the ever-evolving world of beauty, one truth stands out more clearly than ever: diversity is strength. At O’Care Professional, we believe that beauty comes in every shade, curl, and texture. That’s why we’re proud to introduce our Ethnic Range—a line of hair care products thoughtfully designed for textured, curly, coily, and chemically-treated hair.

Why the Ethnic Range Matters

Hair is more than just style. Its identity. For years, individuals with ethnic hair types have had to navigate a beauty industry that often overlooks their specific needs.

What Makes It Different?

Our Ethnic Range isn’t just a repackaged version of general products. Each formula is tailored with:

• Deeply nourishing oils like argan, castor, and marula for moisture retention
• Low-sulfate, curl-friendly cleansers to preserve natural oils and avoid dryness
• Protein-infused treatments for strengthening delicate, textured strands
• Styling solutions that define curls without flaking or stiffness

From wash day essentials to daily moisturizers and edge tamers, this range covers every step of a healthy hair care routine.

Backed by Science, Inspired by Culture

At O’Care Professional, we understand that textured hair isn’t just different—it’s beautifully complex. That’s why our R&D team partnered with trichologists and salon professionals from diverse communities to ensure our formulas meet the real-world demands of ethnic hair.

For Salons and Stylists: Professional-Grade Results

This range is designed with salon professionals in mind. Whether you’re treating natural curls, transitioning hair, or relaxed styles, our Ethnic Range offers:

Many women can’t help but to give in to their need to constantly change and improve on themselves in one way or the other. When it comes to change, many women love experimenting with their hair as a starting point for the change they seek; this experimentation often comes in the form of dyeing their hair in different colours.

For those of you who have naturally dark hair, dyeing is a tricky task if you don’t know where to start. Don’t worry though, we’ve got your back. Before dyeing your hair, you first need to bleach it using reliable bleaching powder – think of it as creating a clean canvas for the oncoming work of art.

Bleaching is a safe procedure that any woman can use, and is much easier than it may seem. Keep on reading to learn more. Otherwise, if you’d like more personalised assistance with bleaching your hair, don’t be too shy to give us a call!

Step by step guide to bleach your hair with bleaching powder

Before you try bleaching your hair by yourself, you need to know whether your hair is healthy enough or not to go at it alone. If your hair is super-fine or is experiencing any kind of frizziness, dryness or breakage, you should leave the bleaching and dyeing to a professional. If your hair is completely healthy though, and you have no doubts about its state, go ahead and follow these steps to properly bleach your hair with bleaching powder.

Prep

First thing’s first, you should treat the bleaching as a ritual of sorts; lay out everything you need neatly around you so that you won’t have to run around looking for things once you begin the process. Here’s what you’ll need”

1. Bleaching powder of choice;
2. An old clean t-shirt;
3. An old clean, towel;
4. Hair clips
5. Shampoo

Pro-tip: Guy Tang and Shvonne Perkins, two reputable celebrity hair colourists suggest that hair should always be somewhat dry and clean, which means no dry shampoo, no styling products, and no excessive oils, although a bit of natural oil is fine. You should also bear in mind that bleach is notorious for destroying fabrics, so choose what you wear wisely. Remove any fabrics that may be in danger of coming into contact with the hair bleach and make sure you ‘re wearing clothes that you can hop into the shower with. This is where the old t-shirt comes in handy.

Process

1. First thing’s first, you’re going to need to properly prepare your hair bleach for the process. To do this, simply follow the instructions in the guide provided in the bleaching powder’s packaging – don’t rush it!
2. Next up, you want to split your hair into four sections so that you can neatly apply to your hair bleach. Keep in mind that you’ll also need to apply your bleach to smaller segments within each section to ensure that you’re fully saturated your hair.
3. Apply your bleach at least 1 inch away from your scalp before working your way up the section of hair you’ve chosen. It’s important that you do not start at the scalp since the bleach processes much quicker in that area thanks to your body heat. Once you apply the bleach to your sections, go ahead and apply it to your roots.
4. Leave the bleach to settle and process for about 20-45 minutes, depending on your hair colour, desired results and the instructions that came along with the bleaching powder.
5. When you’ve waited long enough, shampoo your hair as thoroughly as possible before rinsing and drying with the old towel.

Upkeep

One of the most important parts of hair colouring is how you treat your hair afterwards. Whether you get your treatment at a salon or it’s a DIY job, you’ll want to take good care of your hair after you’ve bleached and coloured it. Experts recommend several types of hair supplements to keep your hair and scalp healthy – Guy Tang also recommends that you blow dry your hair to ensure that the cuticles are soaking up all the much-needed nutrients needed to keep your hair healthy and hydrated.

Hygiene has always been an essential practice for spas, salons and barber shops of all sizes around the world. However, today more than ever, hygiene is something that no spa or salon owner can afford to ignore because of the global pandemic that has taken the world by storm.

Besides Covid-19, salon and spa owners are obligated by workplace regulations to maintain high standards of hygiene in their shops. In this blog, we’re going to talk about why hygiene is an essential part of any salon or spa, as well as explore a few of the things you can do to effectively and consistently practice good hygiene.

Why is hygiene so important for spa, barber shop and salon owners?

With the rise of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, hygiene has risen to the top of the to-do lists for most barber shop and salon owners. To prevent the spread of the virus, shop owners need to keep their establishments clean and sanitised at all times; they need to prioritize frequent cleaning and disinfection, not just to comply with Covid-19 regulations, but to protect themselves and their employees as well.

Besides the pandemic though, spas and barber shops need to maintain good hygiene standards to prevent the risk of cross contamination of their tools and equipment. Fungi, bacteria and nasty germs of different kinds can easily spread throughout your establishment if you don’t practice good hygiene.

How can you maintain good hygiene in your establishment?

Keep your furniture clean

Most salon chairs are made from PVC or vinyl, making them easy to effectively wipe down and sanitise. You should always take care to use the right cleaning and disinfection products to prevent any accidental damage to your furniture. Avoid using disinfectants that contain alcohol as they react with PVC and vinyl in a negative way, causing your equipment to become brittle and crack.

Avoid cross-contaminating your equipment

It’s absolutely essential that you clean your equipment as thoroughly as possible in between usage – don’t be lazy with this one, it could mean the difference between retaining your clients and shutting down your business. Every piece of equipment that comes into contact with your clients like combs, brushes, clippers and rollers should be cleaned thoroughly after each use and stored in a clean and dry area when not in use.

Don’t forget about personal hygiene

Last but certainly not least, you need to keep yourself and your staff as clean as you keep your equipment. Personal hygiene is almost a prerequisite for people working in spas, salons and barber shops, nobody would trust someone who isn’t clean and neat to take care of their beauty needs. Personal hygiene also helps curb the spread of nasty bacteria and viruses – don’t say we didn’t warn you!
