How to Find Your Hair Pefect Color.....

What will suit you?

Generally people are suited to warm colors or cool colors. The easiest way to determined which one you are, all you have to do is get a brown and a blue top or towel and place it over your shoulders.

Which one brings out your features? If it's the brown you're best suited to warm colors, if it's blue then your best suited to cool colors.

In regards to how light or dark to go. Ask herself this:Realistically how often can you maintain it? 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks or longer.

What I'm saying is if you're dark naturally don't go Blonde if you're only prepared to get it colored every 6 to 8 weeks plus.

Ask your colorist their recommendations and put the color samples up against your face to give you a visual as to what is best.


Hair Colors are graded from 1 to 10. 1 being Black and 10 being Platinum Blonde that is just how light or dark it is. To determine the shade that is different again this is where we use a color chart the same one you'll see in a paint shop!
Only colorist's don't have the easy task of everything going on a white canvas, the color you see is the color you get.

You have to take into consideration what shade are you now and what shade does your hair reflect naturally? Then you have to counteract accordingly. Not as easy as it looks!

My advice: Let the professionals do it.

How To Get Your Perfect Haircut....

You know when you want a haircut or maybe a new 'do' but you don't know what to get or what to ask for.

Try answering these questions and you will soon have a picture in your mind of what you want and tell your stylist and they will too.

* What look do you want? sexy, sophisticated, elegant, rock, soft or fun.
* How long do you or are you willing to spend on your hair each day? REALISTICALLY.
* How often do you get your haircut? 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks or longer.
* Do you like messy, neat, done, classical, smooth, soft, straight or curly.
* Do you like the feeling or look of product in your hair?
* What don't you like?


You know if you're a pearls and lace type of gal don't get a rock haircut. Or if you spend 2 minutes doing your hair don't get a cut that requires 1/2 hour.

Make sure your stylist teaches you how to do it when you get home. There is nothing worse then getting home and you don't know what to do with it! You'll end up hating your haircut.

Good Luck!

What's Hot in Hair this Winter

So what is hot and happening with hair this winter?

Think Romance! Soft and playful hair with relaxed curls falling on your face, loose pony tails. Quite 1940's wartime.

Think Elegant yet Edgy! Take a traditional French Roll and mix it with I-just-rolled-out-of-bed look.

It's all about volume and a mixture of textures this year! YAY, I don't mind a bit of volume, I love big hair!

Cuts- taking the above in mind the cuts are quite simple allowing you to style it many different ways.

Short to Mid length hair- It's quite moulded and sculpted.

Color- Think Subtle!It's all quite natural focusing more on the condition of your hair. So simple rich colors and treatments, treatments, treatments!

And regardless of what you are hearing everywhere DO NOT CUT IT YOURSELF! Leave it to the professionals!
