While i do enjoy the ombre trend i have been gravitating toward baylayage closer too the root for a more pronounced look and brightness by the face. I also dig highlights with more structure by the face as well! check out some pics!

WINTER BEAUTY TIPS FOR HEALTHIER SCALP AND HAIR

winters rough, it drys us out, chills us a lil to the bone and makes us neglect our hair health and maintenance routine often hiding our hair under a hat or scarf to brave the colder temps. wash the scalp for 7 minutes massaging gently to increase blood flow and hair growth letting the shampoo rinse through ur hair and condition for 7 mins as well, rinsing well but allowing some to remain on the ends of the hair to decrease breakage. for those suffering from dandruff during the cooler months (like myself) mix 1 part apple cider vinegar to 9 parts water in a spray bottle and spray mixture directly onto scalp and massage gently with pads of finger tips for 20-30 mins. wash as instructed above and condition and after a few weeks of this routine results will be evident! the scalp will feel dandruff free and clarified and hair will be shiny:) always use an argon oil on hair when wet since thats when hair is porous and the sebum(body's

natural oil) like oil can seal the end of the hair shaft promoting hair growth! best hair beauty tip ever is to never NEVER wash hair everyday. work slowly and patiently with your comfort level and your sebum production schedule and get your selves to a once a week wash! this helps hair growth by avoiding dehydration and keeps color longer for color clients.

"my lil pony hair" is so cute! check out the tumblr site, chicks are super diggin the light pastel play with haircolor this season.... i also threw in a bunch of technique and results images for baylayage.... i simply adore sarah jessica parkers photo in this post and her bayalayge is the best example of this new and desired highlight technique/trend!

taste of award season 2012

wow! such beauty last night and maybe a snafu or two..... lol! reese witherspoons tousled waves with shades of platinum and blond were just a dream and on the flip side jeassica biels smooth rich brown locks wowed and pushed her features to the beauty limits (if that's possible):) katherine mcphee wore a natural medium brown with wisps of dark blond peeking out of her loose curls.... amazing! nicole richies bangs were smooth and drastic all at the same time! lastly charlieze theron wore her hair like she was running an errand and forgot she needed to attend an event hence the monochromatic head band that seemingly gets lost in her blah blond hair......

day in the life

highlight/lowlight to better blend an allover bleach client and get her in the direction of natural with a depth-y root
quick sexy blowout on my favorite client
root retouch to cover baby fine but dense gray hair
double process highlight with base color for more contrast and emphasize depth and trim and bang shaping

RED RED WORLD

Working with amazing variances in reds has given one of my top clients gorgeous locks, a richer look and lots of dimension. I started with some coppery based reds and have moved into some violet based reds with some ombred pieces throughout.... Her hair has the best curl pattern AND looks amazing blown out....all voluminous and bouncy with not much effort:) LOVE HER, LOVE HER HAIR.....
