Healthy Hair Doesn’t Have to Cost the Earth…or Your Wallet

Why Price Per Wash Matters for Your Curly Hair Routine

When you’re searching for the best products for curly hair in the UK, it’s easy to be tempted by the, shall we say, budget-friendlier options lining the shelves. 

But what if a slightly pricier product actually turned out to be more cost-effective. And better for your curls over time? 

What is Price Per Wash

Price per wash breaks down the total cost of a product by how many uses you can realistically get out of it. A shampoo that might look expensive up front could actually be more economical if it:

  • Requires less product per wash

  • Cleanses more efficiently, meaning you don’t need to double-wash

  • Lasts longer than cheaper alternatives packed with fillers

  • It’s an investment. Delivers healthier hair over time. 

Yes, you’re paying a bit more, but that single bottle stretches further and lasts longer

Quality Over Quantity for Curly Hair

If you’ve been on the hunt for the best treatment for curly hair, you’ve probably seen how certain formulas can leave your curls weighed down, or even strip them of their natural oils. 

Cheaper products often include:

  • Harsh chemicals or sulfates

  • Diluted formulas that require more product to get the job done

  • Fillers that offer little nutritional or strengthening value

But when you choose a salon-grade product with a carefully balanced formula, you’re getting potent, high-quality ingredients that not only protect your hair but also last longer. Paying more upfront can mean fewer wasted washes and fewer re-purchases in the long run.

Investing in Your Hair’s Long-Term Health

Curly hair is naturally more prone to dryness and breakage. By investing in salon products for curly hair, you’re often getting:

  • Hydrating botanical extracts that replenish moisture

  • Gentle, pH-balanced cleansers that respect your curls’ natural structure

  • Stronger, more resilient curls that hold up better between washes

  • Actives that enhance the health of the hair for long-term benefits rather than cosmetic short-term gains

Over time, this means fewer splits, less frizz and a healthier hair shaft overall. Healthier curls require fewer treatments, trims and emergency fixes, saving you time and money.

Remember: “Healthy hair doesn’t have to cost the Earth—for the planet or your wallet.” It’s all about quality over quantity.


How “Premium” Products Help the Planet

When we say “healthy hair doesn’t have to cost the Earth,” we mean that literally, too. Higher-quality products often come with eco-friendly benefits:

  • Sustainably sourced ingredients with fewer harsh chemicals

  • Less packaging because you use less product overall

  • Fewer replacements (less frequent re-buys reduce waste and shipping)

Cheaper brands may rely on mass production methods that negatively impact the environment through excessive plastic and chemical waste. By choosing a premium, eco-conscious brand, you’re putting less strain on the planet. And still getting fantastic results.

At Shedid & Parrish we offer refill solutions as we use recycled aluminium so the bottle can be washed out and reused. This helps you to drive footfall back into the salon and works out to be better value for all. 

A More Nourishing Choice

Beyond the numbers, a strong curly hair regimen built around quality products delivers:

  • Less breakage, more length retention

  • Enhanced moisture for bouncy, defined curls

  • Reduced frizz, making styling and maintenance easier

And because you’re likely using less product each time, your bottle stretches further, making that initial cost easier to justify.
