Ammonia-Free, Vegan Hair Lighteners Offered at Escape Eco Salon

Escape Eco Salon, in Northbrook, which takes a comprehensive, holistic approach to hair care, now carries three varieties of clean, ammonia-free, vegan hair lighteners by hair care product company O&M.

“Our mission is to provide safer, natural beauty products that perform to the highest standards,” says owner Jasmine Metz. “We provide superior organic products that give our guests a more pleasant salon experience; gorgeous, longer-lasting results; beautiful color; and healthier hair.”

Metz says that one of the trusted brands the salon features is O&M, which recently came out with new lighteners. “O&M challenges the artificial norms of professional hair care with formulations that are both effective and gentle—removing harsh chemicals wherever possible while including natural extracts and active minerals that deliver real benefits,” she explains.

Using these lighteners, stylists are able to achieve a technique called AirTouch, a unique way to highlight hair safely, observes Metz. With a blow dryer, one can use air to correctly separate the hair into natural layers, giving it a natural and sophisticated look that grows out seamlessly.
