We recently held a barbering class where we had a profession barber/educator come in and give us all knowledge and ideas regarding fades, beard trimmings/shapings, and designs. We were so thankful and can’t wait to take this further in our salon. Here are some pictures from this weekend’s class.

Fashion colors have become INSANELY popular over the last year. I’m sure you’ve seen “unicorn” hair posts all over pinterest and instagram. So what exactly goes into achieving a look like that. Here are a few IMPORTANT things to remember when you ask your stylists for those crazy, cool colors.
So what does that mean? Expect to be in salon for multiple appointments because it’s going to take time to get you light enough. Not only multiple appointments, but for each appointment being at least 4 hours long, sometimes even longer. Lightening hair is a time consuming process as it is, then add deep conditioning treatments to keep your hair happy, and blow dries after most steps, and cutting and blow drying again. (be sure to bring a snack)
Keep in mind, multiple appointments can add up and be costly. Always be open with your stylists about what you’re willing to pay to make sure you both are on the same page when it comes to $$$.

At the very least you need to be a darker blonde for your hair to even take to darker fashion colors. Looking for a pastel lilac, let’s start with violet first and safely get you to that lilac color you’re wanting.
Fashion colors are direct dyes offering TEMPORARY color. They fade faster, which is why using the products your stylists recommends is crucial. Although the products won’t completely stop fading, it’ll slow down the process a little but expect to be back in salon for a touch up between 4-6 weeks.
Still think fashion colors are for you? Talk with your stylist today about the HEALTHY way to get there to maintain the integrity of your hair because as always that is our main goal.

Ever come into the salon to have your hair colored and love it, only to go home and notice it may look a little warmer or different in the light in your own bathroom? Lighting makes a big difference when it comes to hair color. That’s why it’s so important to see your hair in natural light because chances are if your like there, you’ll like it anywhere.
Different lighting can give off difference affects to your hair like looking too warm or brassy, to too blue, to too dull. Here are some side by side pictures of the SAME hair, done on the SAME day, but how lighting completely changes the color.
See how vibrant both colors look in the sunlight? Who knew lighting would make such a difference.
Nothing makes us happier than new products! We’re super excited Redken is coming out with a brand new addition to the All Soft family. The All Soft Mega line include a brand new shampoo and conditioner, a MEGA mega mask, hydramelt, and a sheet mask for your hair. So who exactly is this line targeting? To all my friends with super dry and coarse hair, this is your answer. The All Soft Mega line has TWO brand new types of products, the hydramelt and the hair sheet mask. So what are they?
-The hydramelt is a leave in cream that replenishes softness, manageability, and control.
-The sheet mask is a recovery tissue mask cap that is a one time use mask for intense hydration.
