RED HAIR COLOR

I love this brilliant red hair color. It is so brilliant and clear.  It flatters the models skin and eyes.  I just have to post the photo because I am working on a problem now with red hair color fading too fast.  I am experimenting on several ways to prevent it from fading.

New Hair Style Winner Today

Natalie's  Before-and-After Hair Cut 



Natalie gave her model a new hair cut and was a winner because of the amazing way the hair cut flattered her client's face shape.

The cut changed the face shape from square to an oval.
The bangs pointed to the eyes, making them really sparkle.
It flattered the face to point to the most beautiful feature.

Thank you Natalie Hawkins of Jeannie's Hair Company

Test to Find Best Way to Hold a New Style in Humid Weather

I had a new client ask me today why her new hair style has been so hard to manage and unruly just lately.
It is because the climate here is so changeable.
Lately it has been so humid and hot.  The humidity causes
curly hair to frizz and causes straight hair to go limp and
loose its style.  It also can make the hair look oily by the end of the day.

A remedy for this is to change the brand of styling product.

Select one that is humidity proof.  I will have The Hair Repair Team test the ones that claim to be humidity proof and rate them.  I will  upload the results to this blog if anyone else has this problem and asks. 

I know what my #1 choice is now, but I need to compare some new ones to my favorite to discover if mine is still best or if maybe one of the new ones is a little better.

For the test we will use a human hair mannequin, apply different products to each section, and use exactly the same styling technique on each section.  We will place the mannequin outside in the humidity and leave for 24hours.  Then we will take photos and document the results.

This sounds like lots of fun and I already can't wait to see the results!!!

I want a new Hair Cut.


Before and After
QUESTION:

My hair is so thick it takes too long to shampoo and style. Is there a cut that is still long but much easier to style?


ANSWER:This is a cut that is thinned underneath the surface and textured into many layers. This takes out half the bulk but no length. Now it will dry 50% faster, be easier to style, and gives a new trendy look.

HOW TO REPAIR SPLIT ENDS WITHOUT CUTTING







BEFORE Shena with split ends









Shena AFTER with no split ends














This is the only way I know to repair Split Ends without a hair cut.


Shena had severely damaged her hair with bleach, hair color, and sun and chlorine from participating in her favorite sport, wake boarding. In and out of the water every day in the hot sun of the South took it's a toll on her hair making it look over processed.


Shena tried so many conditioners and repair treatments but her hair was damaged, dry, frizzy, and had so many split ends half way up the hair shaft. The day she walked into the salon, she believed she would have to cut her hair at least 8 to 10 inches.


The Hair Repair Team used a new product by the great Greek scientist/hair dresser/educator, JOHN ANTONIOU, and the split ends were repaired.


Shena is so shocked at the difference this intensive repair treatment ANTONIOU REZZ A RECT made on her hair.


This is the first time Shena has been in the salon of the Hair Repair Team. They never met Shena before this day they repair her hair and film this video.


Shena is so shocked at the difference the intensive hair repair treatment, ANTONIOU REZZ A RECT makes on her hair.




STEPS TO REPAIR SPLIT ENDS:




  1. Shampoo with ANTONIOU SHAMPOO and rinse. Do not towel blot the hair.


  2. Apply a tbs. of REZZ A RECT to very wet hair and work throughout the hair


  3. Cover the hair with a plastic bag and apply heat from a hair dryer for 5 minutes.


  4. Rinse lightly and apply a tbs. of ANTONIOU CONDITIONER/DETANGLER to make the tangles slide out like a breeze. Rinse again lightly.


  5. Apply a dime size of ANTONIOU REZZ A RECT to the repaired hair and leave it in the hair as a styling aid and as a protector from further damage of sun and chlorine


  6. In addition to this, Shena used a little smoothing serum and then she flat ironed her hair herself.


The Hair Repair Team, of which I am a member, love to get this happy response from those who thought their hair was ruined and they would have to cut it all off.



Please watch the repair on the video and see the steps performed
