Fun beachy waves!

Have you seen the latest in celeb trends? If you have then you probably have noticed the lovely beachy fun wavy locks they are donning this summer. I am going to give you some tips on how and what to use to create this easy to do fun style. First you need to havve the right product in your hair. We use Soy Renewal beach spray By Healthy Sexy Hair. This will give your hair that just came back from the beach texture. After you shower difuse dry your hair about 50-75% dry. Then spritz the spray from root to end and scrunch. You can then allow the air to naturally dry your hair or continue to difuse your hair dry. I have personally partially dried my hair, spray the mist into my hair then put it up in a black elastic all messy, then about an hour or so later when you are ready to go out take my hair down and it has that awesome wave that lasts all night!

Desiring what we don't have!

This day and age women are always looking at celebs and models comparing what they have to what the famous women have. I think this makes us depressed and down about our own image. We always want what someone else has. I wish I had a flat stomach or bigger boobs. Even with hair, Curly hair wants to be straight and straight hair wants to be curly. We as women are never satisfied. At least with hair it can be a generally affordable fix. You can always get a fresh cut, or a super color to bring your mood up. If you just want to work with what you have thats fine too. There are many products out there to help you get the most out of your hair. Talk to your stylist about what you can use to help you achieve a desired look. Don't be so hard on yourself and just work with what God gave ya!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have a stylist that can do my hair really good?

So ladies and gents, every now and again I have a bold client that asks do you have a stylist that can do my hair really good? How does a stylist respond to this kind of question? If you are that hesitant to get your hair done and have to ask the stylist that is going to do your hair if they can do it really good that is a pretty pardon my french ballzy to ask! As an experienced stylist I have to first gather my thoughts take a very DEEP breath and answer the question with a smile. What people dont understand is that our shears are not magic wands and we can't just tap and twirl it over their heads and be magicians! Yes we have the expertise to do a fabulous cut and style, Yes we have the ability to give you and unbelievable highlight and color! But it comes down to the truth and the truth is there are just some clients that cannot be pleased, they are never happy no matter who they go to or how much they pay! Choose words wisely when you ask your stylist "can you do a really good job?" !!!!!!!!!

Time for a change!

Right about now people are getting tired of the same old style they are use to getting. It's spring time and with summer swiftly approaching a new style and color is definately needed! Beautiful Ombre highlights will softly cascade and brighten your mood and style. Ombre gives the effect of going from dark to ligh or light to dark. There are so many options with this type of color! Make sure you go to a stylist that has experience in this area. As for the sutting trends. Texture and movement in the hair are key to having a style that flows naturally with the contours of your head and face shape! If you are daring to be different talk to your stylist and set a plan that will have you feeling sexy and satisfied!

Ombre!!!!

Everyone is searching for that hollywood look. Right now the trend is going to be Ombre highlights. All the IT girls of hollywood are sporting this look. It's beachy, fun, and easy maintenance. Make sure you find a stylist that is knowledged in this area. You should always stay withing 3-4 shades of your natural color at the at the roots and the ends should flow into a lighter shade.

Summer product rescue for textured curly hair

Hey ladies if you have textured curly hair that gives you problems with frizz especially in the heat I have such a wonderful organic product to tame your frizz and add shine at the same time. Batteling frizz is an ongoing issue and we are well aware of it so when we found Onesta create setting mist it was like the hair Gods answered so many curly haired ladies prayers. This product is 100 percent organic and offers a 100 percent money back guarantee! 10 percent of the proceeds do go to cancer research! I had a client in my chair that was telling me her woes of taming her hair so I spritzzed some of this amazing product in and told her to see if she liked it and if she did that we sell all the products we use. She came back today and bought our last bottle! Amazing taming controling spray. You gotta try it to believe it!

Great color that lasts!

So many times I have had clients how can I extend the life of my color or tell me their last experience with color ended up with fifty percent of it down the drain within the next few days after a service. I have to be honest with my clients and to the public. First off if you are using off the cvs shelf products on your hair you can just kiss your color service down the drain. Product is not something we are trying to shove down your throat. They were created for a purpose and in this case the products I am talking about are for your color. You spend so much on your color don't you want to protect and get the most longevety out of it? Second if you are comming from the gym or use special acne treatments on your hair please inform your stylist so they can take the proper steps to ensure you get the color and tone you desire. Sweat builds up around the hairline and at the root of your hair. If your hair is not clarified first you will lack the luster and shine you desire. Remember communicate with your stylist. You are entrusting your hair to them and they want to get the best result as well. We love what we do and we live when our clients are completely honest with us, in turn allows us to take the right steps to give you a fabulous look!
