A Firefighter’s Testament on IV Nutrient Therapy

There’s no denying the massive benefits of IV Nutrient Therapy for the average person, but what happens when the treatment is put to the ultimate test? Trent McMinn, a local firefighter recruit, recently discovered IV Nutrient Therapy at Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa and learned first hand the value of this treatment while training at the fire academy. As you can imagine, the training to become a firefighter is no small task— constant physical demand, grueling climate conditions and lots of heavy gear. We caught up with Mr. McMinn to discuss how IV Nutrient Therapy helped him in his challenging training to become a firefighter.

How long have you been doing IV Nutrient Therapy and when did you first see the results?

I have been doing the IV Nutrient Therapy for the past two months, and I honestly felt the results right away, I noticed I was sleeping a lot better and deeper, and when I’d wake up in the morning it wasn’t the normal drag out of bed, I felt great.

What do you do for and how does this treatment benefit you on the job?

I am currently a Firefighter recruit going through the fire academy and will be on the fire truck starting in January after the academy ends. So far the benefits have been amazing due to the physical and mental stress that comes with being in the fire academy. I have noticed my body being able to recover faster and I feel more alert and have a better sense of well being.

What made you want to start IV Nutrient Therapy?

Once I got my job offer for the fire department and was about to start the academy I knew I was going to have to be able to perform at very high levels for the next 15 weeks and wanted to give my body the boost it would need to stay healthy, I started looking around at maybe a vitamin B shot, but then found the IV Nutrient Therapy offered at Colair and decided to give it a shot.

Are you planning on sticking with these treatments? 

I am planning on sticking with it because of the daily stresses that come with the role of being a firefighter even after my academy is over. I want to stay healthy and be able to provide the service the community deserves.

So there you have it. If IV Nutrient Therapy can help a gentleman survive the demands of fireman training, imagine the benefits for yourself? Not just for fatigue, this treatment is also aides with hypertension, infections and among many others, depression. Flying commercial or stuck in a tight public space? This treatment helps boost ones immune system so you’re less likely to catch that cold that’s been going around. Not unlike the Myer’s Cocktail, IV Nutrient Therapy at Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa is a vitamin-mix ‘push’ treatment that takes around five minutes and is administered by our on-site Registered Nurse.

Ways to Extend the Life of Your Color

After finding the perfect stylist and agonizing over which shade, you’ve made the leap into an exciting new hair color— now to maximize the life of your color. What could be more frustrating than achieving your ultimate hair goals, only to see the color fade? With the help of Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa’s expert stylist and amazing products, you’ll be well on your way to long lasting hair color, but here’s a few more tips.

Wash Wisely: Choosing product is just as important as deciding on which salon to visit for your service. Sulfates and sodium chloride strip the hair of color. We suggest Pai-Shau’s Replenishing Hair Cleanser.

Keep it Cool: When rinsing your color treated-hair, you’ll want to avoid hot water because it may allow pigment to escape more freely. Fight the urge to turn up the heat and keep it cool so you don’t see color spinning down the drain.

Avoid the Sun: Not only are the sun’s harmful UV rays damaging to your skin, but also your hair and hair color. Too much sunshine can fade hair and cause hair dehydration. Protect and maximize your treatment with stylizing products that have specific UV absorbers (Pai-Shau offers great items). But if all else fails, just put on a hat.

Moisturize Often: Though it might sound like a simple tip, we can not stress the importance of moisturizing often to extend the life of your hair color. Few products work as well as the Supreme Revitalizing Mask from Pai-Shau, a fan-favorite at Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa, this magical infusion of polymers not only give your hair the moisture needed, it also has an anti-static barrier.

Six Fall Beauty Trends

With a crispness in the air and Halloween approaching, that desire for a fall transformation is calling. There’s no better excuse for a personal revamp than a change in the season. Gone are the bright and bold hues of summer, bring on the mysteriously moody colors of autumn. From Colair Beauty Lounge’s co-owner, Dallas and Creative Director, Gretchen, allow us to present our favorite fall trends.

HAIR: For fall, it’s all about collarbone length with a long fringe or very long “mermaid hair” with elongated and imperfect curls. As far as color goes, I’m obsessed with warm tones of blonde, cinnamon reds and some wine-inspired red tones— it all feels cozy and chic. In addition, ombre is out for fall, it’s all about baby-lights and creative block colors.

STYLE: We’re all about low and sleek ponytails and soft multi-textured buns. There’s nothing more essentially holiday-season than adding a bit of bling to the look as well, so pick up some sparkly headbands or jeweled hair clasps.

PRODUCT: Tis the season of gifts and we’re obsessed with our product-sets that are perfect for weekend trips and stocking stuffers alike. If you’re looking for some moisture-rich product, our Nuema gift sets are the ticket— not only do the contain shampoo and conditioner, but also blowout lotion. My heart skips a beat at the sight of the Pai-Shau gift-set that comes in thee most adorable tote.

SKIN: The summer is gone, but the damage done to your skin remains. Thus, the true season of the peel is upon us. Time to get glowing, healthy skin for the holiday season.

LIPS: Sticking with the less-vibrant theme of the season, there’s something so witchy about a dark purple or black lip, which becomes even.
