Silk Press
Silk Press & Cut from the EssenceIJN salon gallery.
A silk press uses blow-drying and controlled heat styling to create a smooth finish on natural hair without a chemical relaxer. At our Oldbury salon, the appointment starts with a discussion of your hair history and the finish you want.
Is Silk Press right for your hair?
Tell your stylist about colour, previous straightening, breakage or scalp sensitivity. The temperature and styling approach should suit the condition of your hair; a straight finish is not a reason to use more heat than your hair can tolerate.

Before your appointment
Bring a reference photo if you have a shape or finish in mind. Check the selected package for included washing, treatment and trimming, and tell us if you are taking down a protective style before your visit.
Looking after your hair
Wrap the hair gently at night and protect it from unnecessary moisture and repeated heat. Ask your stylist how to care for your own texture between visits. Humidity, activity and your wash routine affect how long the finish lasts.
Frequently asked questions
Is a silk press permanent?
No. It is a temporary heat-styled finish, not a chemical change to your curl pattern. Discuss heat history and hair condition before booking.
Does the appointment include a trim?
