The heat wave in San Diego has definitely left us feeling like our early morning hair styling has been in vain. By the time we have left our homes and started our day, the humidity and heat has taken its toll leaving our hair less than perfect! 😉

IT’S TIME TO TAKE ACTION!

I am so excited to share the solution to achieving healthy, shiny, silky hair…..THE KERATIN COMPLEX SMOOTHING TREATMENT! I absolutely love this treatment!!

Whether you have coarse curly hair, processed lightened hair or unruly frizzy hair, we have the remedy. I can honestly say in all of my years doing hair i have never seen these kind of results. The Keratin treatment penetrates the cuticle to reduce frizz and curl. It repairs damage and blocks the effects of humidity to prevent frizz, making the hair smoother and healthier with each treatment. To add another benefit to this … Read More

Hola,

I just got back from one of my favorite places, NYC! I am happy to leave the heat & humidity, but it was all worth it, as my journey was the start of a new adventure.

What the “H” am I talking about you ask? Well I was in Hot ass, Humid ass, Manhattan to train for the ‘2010 Fall Fashion’ Week!!!!!

I can hardly hold back my excitement. I wish I had a lot of cool stuff to share with you, but the truth is what I learned would probably not appeal to you, LOL. It might even appear ugly to most people. Let’s not forget that most fashion & hair trends always start that way.

I had the opportunity to learn from Jon Reyman, an amazing stylist & veteran to Fashion week. He will be heading our team for this year’s back stage madness.

Each season the creative artists throughout the hair industry flex their muscles and design the next collection of haircuts to be worn by the models, the fashionista’s and finally the client.

It’s always an interesting question when I’m asked “whats your prediction for the next big hair trend” …yes its true we have seen some iconic hairstyles over the decades, more recently the likes of Jennifer Anniston and Victoria Beckham! As a hairdresser I for one am ecstatic this trend is coming to an end, finally the % of posh spice requests is in single digits and hopefully we will be seeing more precision and polished looks leaving our salons!

So what is the next prediction? Obviously depending on lifestyle and location not every client will be requesting a futuristic space age cut and colour but I definitely feel a change toward a more sculpted geometric shape, this can then … Read More
