A new year means a fresh start, and that includes your hair routine! While staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is essential for healthy hair growth and shine, incorporating the right tools can make all the difference as well. Here, we’re detailing some of the top habits and tools your clients should work into their routine this season.

How To Refresh Hair Routines in 2025 

1. On the go? Invest in a Cordless Flat Iron

If your clients have been aiming to hit the gym and maintain a work/life balance, styling on-the-go is a must. A cordless flat iron is the ultimate solution to refresh their look after a workout or while traveling.

They can tuck it in their gym bag or their carry-on, this styler is perfect for touch-ups anytime, anywhere, ensuring they can look polished no matter how hectic their day gets.

2. Invest in a Styling Brush for Natural Conditioning

Regular brushing is an underrated but essential step for maintaining healthy hair. It helps distribute natural oils from the scalp down the strands, increasing shine and condition.

3. Master Heat Settings for Healthier Hair

One of the most important habits to adopt this year is learning how to use the correct heat settings for each hair type. Using excessive heat can lead to unnecessary damage, while the right temperature can enhance styling results.

Tool Temperature Settings for Versatility:

Cutting down on damage while delivering flawless styles, Sam Villa hot tools come with 3 main settings for heat control. 

• Low 375º F: Ideal for fine/thin hair that is susceptible to heat damage.

• Color Treated 392º F: For anyone who colors their hair — whether it’s a single process, highlights or a gloss.

• High 410º F: This setting is ideal for thick/coarse hair types or those with highly textured hair. 

You can enjoy these heat settings on the following Sam Villa Professional Tools:

• Signature Series Professional Curling Iron 1” – Includes polished stainless steel barrel for luminous shine and long-lasting curls.

• SLEEKR® Professional Flat Iron – Smooths hair effortlessly without snagging or tugging.

• Pro Results Cordless Flat Iron – The go-to tool for styling on-the-go.

• Artist Series 2-in-1 Marcel Iron & Wand 1.5” – Transforms from a Marcel handle to a wand and is ideal for voluminous waves.

• TEXTUR® Professional Texturizing Iron – Adds up to three times the volume and body for long-lasting styles.

Offering even more customization the Sam Villa Pro Results Double-Waver creates long-lasting, glossy waves and curls with dual ceramic-infused barrels and includes heat settings of 280º F, 320º F, 350º F, 390º F, 420º F for even more control. 

4. Clean Out Your Cabinets and Brushes

A clean workspace leads to better efficiency and healthier hair for your clients. Therefore, keping your tools in top condition ensures better performance and longevity. In addition to habits like replacing the filters on your blow dryer to maintain optimal airflow and efficiency, keeping things tidy with a brush cleaner is key.

Tool Pick: Sam Villa Brush Cleaner

Why you’ll love it:

• 2-in-1 cleaner with hard angled teeth for hair removal and bristles to sweep away product buildup

• Quickly cleans brushes between clients or at the end of the day

5. Streamline Your Styling Routine with the Right Accessories

Organization is essential to a smoother, more efficient styling routine. So having the right professional tools on hand can help you save time while achieving consistent results. To upgrade your accessories this season take stock of your accessories and get organized with sectioning clips.

Tool Pick: Dry Sectioning Clips

Why they’ll love them:

• Ultra-secure grip for all hair types, from fine to coarse and curly

• Silicone band inside each clip prevents slipping or leaving marks

Whether you’re refreshing your look post-gym, fine-tuning your heat settings, or keeping your brushes in top shape, these resolutions will help you and your clients achieve their best hair all year long.
