Frizzy hair driving you crazy?

Summer is coming and who doesn't want easy hair during the summer? Keratin Smoothing Treatments create smooth, frizz-free, easy to blow dry hair. 



Over the past couple years we have been doing Keratin Smoothing Treatments at the salon. Our clients have fallen in love with these treatments, giving them the perfect answer to unruly, frizzy hair. 

So here's the scoop about why these Keratin Smoothing Treatments are so amazing. 

These treatments are Keratin based. Keratin is a protein, which is great for your hair. The Keratin Treatment smooths your hair shaft and reduces frizz and curl. This treatment will not take the curl out of your hair, but it will relax it a little. Which will make it easier and faster to style your hair.


We offer two types of Keratin Treatments.
The 1st treatment will last about 6 weeks.The 2nd treatment can last up to 6 months. Keratin Treatments are not a permanent hair straightening system. But are a great way to control frizz and make your hair easier to manage.

Braids Braids Braids!


Fishtail and French Braids aren't just for little girls anymore. This braid craze has taken the beauty world by storm. Braids are everywhere! Including the red carpet.  I am super excited about the braid frenzy that is going on! I love braids. A simple braid can add a little or a lot of drama to your daily hair. Braids are also a quick and easy way to keep your hair out of your face and perfect for the beach!

 Here's a few tips on how to make your braid look fashionable:
1. Have clean or one day dirty hair. If your hair is more than a day dirty will be too greasy and won't separate as easily.
2. Braid your hair like normal, in which ever braid style you choose
 (regular, fishtail or french)
3. Secure ends with an elastic band
4. Go through the braid and loosen it up.. gently pull on the braid so it looks a little messy
5. Add a little hair spray and your braid is all set!

Trend Alert: Ombre Highlights!

Ombre Highlights are the latest trend in hair color. This highlight technique is a fun, new, alternative to highlighting your hair. Ombre Highlights are when the ends of your hair graduate to another color, usually a color lighter or blonder. 



These highlights can be done on any color or in any color. Depending on how natural or dramatic your desired finished look is. 

If you want that natural, sun-kissed, bleached ends look on medium to longer length hair which leaves the ends lighter than the roots, Ombre highlights are perfect for you!

 Depending on what color you and your stylist chose for your Ombre, the time between appointments may be longer than the normal 6-8 weeks your classic highlights.
