Procare Hair Foils

There are 2 ranges of hair foil Procare Premium and Everyday Basics. Procare foils are specifically formulated to be softer and stronger yet easier to fold.
Everyday Basics offers a selected choice of lengths at 100mm wide (100m, 250m, 500m & 1000m) whilst Procare Premium Foils come in a wide variety of length, width and colour. These include Superwide Foils (120mm wide) Premium Strips and 24*7 Refill Rolls.
Procare Meche
To help make the colouring process that bit easier Procare meche features a clearer front panel, allowing you to check on colour development really easily and also a special ‘non slip’ tape which means it’s even quicker to use and remove.
Available in boxes of 200 in Long and Short.

Procare dispensing systems
Dispensing systems not only make it easier to prepare your foil, but they also protect and store it when not in use. There are 4 options available from Procare depending on your requirement :
Cut & Fold
This is a hand held unit for 100m rolls of foil (both 100mm & 120mm). Simple to load and operate the cut and fold is hugely popular both in salons and as a portable unit.
Pull the foil to length, press the lid and your foil is cut and presented with a neat fold ready for your comb.
Clog
A modern update on the traditional salon dispenser for 1000m rolls but manufactured in trendy clear perspex so it not only looks good but helps the foil to pull more smoothly.
Hair Hostess
This tall unit dispenses 3 rolls of 250m length foil and features a handy tint table, removable bin and wheels. A fantastic choice for those who use different coloured foils to keep track of multi-toned colouring techniques (you can choose to have up to 3 different coloured foils loaded at any one time).
24*7
The Procare 24*7 is a top of the range fully automatic hair foil preparation system which both cuts and folds foil at the touch of a button.
Simply choose the length of foil, the size of fold and the amount of foils required and the machine takes care of the rest.
A great option for all salon environments, saves wastage, reduces preparation time and produces immaculately presented foils. Available in a choice of 5 colours – Black, White, Pink, Blue & Green.

DEB fights Dermatitis
Helping hairdressers prevent dermatitis
Dermatitis is a common health hazard for hairdressers, but help is at hand with a new product range, specifically developed for the hairdressing market.
Deb, the world’s leading away from home skin care system company, has been manufacturing skin care products for over 60 years.
Now, working with industry professionals, they have developed a specific solution to help prevent dermatitis in the hairdressing market – the Deb Salon Hand Care range of products.

Professional skin care helps promote a professional image
Healthy hands are of paramount importance for hairdressers as hands are, quite literally, the tools of your trade – so taking care of them represents a career investment.
Unsightly hands don’t project a professional image to clients, yet it’s quick and easy to look after them with a salon-specific range of products. The small amount of time spent during a working day using the products is negligible, compared to the potential time lost due to sickness absence that can be caused by the inability to work because of skin problems or dermatitis.
As every salon manager and hairdresser knows, time is money, whether this is time away from the shop floor or time away from the salon due to sickness absence. Yet by using a system such as the Deb Salon Hand Care range, it’s easy to save both time and money, whilst also benefiting from the extra advantage of complete hygiene assurance.
Most importantly perhaps, is the assistance available for training and meeting legal Health and Safety obligations. This is provided through a range of FREE, comprehensive training materials, invaluable for salon owners – making it easy to train staff and meet Health & Safety requirements.
To find out how all this can benefit YOUR salon business, call Deb now on 01773 596700 – and find out about our exciting introductory starter pack offer.
