Unique Hair Technique

Internal reconstruction is absolutely essential for an excellent haircut. A haircut is unique not by its outside shape but by its internal reconstruction! Because we are

all different races and are born with different textures and volume of hair. We are living in an extremely fast paced world and yet haircuts still reflect ancient

interpretations of style. Why are we living in a 21st century with 20th century hair cutting techniques? Stylists across the globe should now be taught a technique that

allows confidence and thinking of out of the box cutting for creativity, that can be used on all ethnic races. Why do haircuts still seem to reflect orderliness, symmetry,

conformity and acceptance when on a daily basis millions of people are starting blogs telling the world how different they are? A haircut should reflect individuality and a

hairstylist should have that skill to produce that. A technique should now be taught to allow re-thinking to put the power back in the hands of the stylist.

Often when a particular step is forgotten or not carried through in a general style, one feels lacking in confidence or feeling inadequate. Imagine if you can have a

technique which allows you to put that all behind you and you can happily sculpt through merrily away and knowing you can work through every square cm, every nook and

corner of hair allowing full control and creativity. Without learning strict procedural cutting. The final result is a customized outcome for the client - extreme texture

or subdued texture, all beginning from within. In the last 4 decades western techniques have been touted as the iconic method to be learned and to spread to the rest of the

world. These techniques suit only caucasian hair and that period of time. It relies on maintaining a smoothness of the external shape and balance as the end result.

The bob should be updated. How? Well why not allow a contrasting undercut. An undercut need not be shaven but cleverly layered and textured allowing the top weight to fall

over subtly with a nice emphasis on heavy movement. Why not asymmetry? It can be done. Why should everyone in the world have bacon and eggs for breakfast. Everything is set

for change now and its coming from the East. An evolutionary new method has started on how the scissors is being held in the hands. It is wield like a sculpting tool so it

can twist, prod, slide and drag allowing completely free movement and full confidence. The stylist can use the same foundation he/she has been trained in and only need to

learn adaptation. The movement has begun.

Common Spa And Salon Treatments

With so many things demanding our time, whether work, school, family, children, or social obligations, it's easy to feel worn out at the end of the day. Or the problem may

start before you even begin your day. If you're feeling worn out before you even start, perhaps it's time to step away from the rigors of daily life and treat yourself to a

day of rest and relaxation. Our bodies need rest and relaxation in order to recuperate, heal, and renew. A great way to give your body a chance to renew is spending the day at a day spa. Day spas specialize in cleansing, treating, and healing the body.

Day spas specialize in several treatments that focus on renewing your body's energy. Most day spas feature massage of all types, including Swedish, deep tissue, and more.

Manicures and pedicures are common as well as sauna treatments and hot wraps. Another common spa treatment is a facial. There are several different types of facials, each

with a different purpose. Talk to the experts at your favorite local day spa to see what types of facials they offer. Traditional facials are designed to cleanse, steam,

and massage the pores and skin of the face. There may also be special types of facials like hypoallergenic or alpha hydroxy acid. If you have problems with acne you can

choose a facial designed to treat and clean the problems associated with acne. This type of facial may be applied in a series of treatments. Whatever your need, there is a

facial available to help you feel relaxed and whole.

Hair Straightening Services

Are you tired of spending hours with a flat iron just get your hair straight? Well, if you are then hair-straightening service is something that you need to know about.

There are many reasons why using a chemical straightening service is superior to using an iron. Listen up and I'll tell you everything you need to know about getting your

hair curl and frizz free!

Specialized hair straightening services use special chemicals and processes to ensure that your hair stays straight for extended periods of time! That means no hot irons to

deal with when you are getting ready. Imagine your hair straight and clean without all that extra hassle.

The chemicals that are applied to your treatment break up the hydrogen bonds in your hair that make curls. It then gets curly when it is wet because of these bonds and

having them broken and then capped (which is what happens during the chemical treatment) ensures that your hair will stay straight until your original hair grows back in.

Hair straightening service is very popular and it is a great option for you if you want to have a little more freedom in your style AND in your time management. Not only

will you be saving hours everyday, but your hair will be flawlessly straight giving you the option for more styles. Another option is to leave a little bit of the curl in

your strands so that you can have that flexibility to shift between curly and straight.

Hair straightening services can make your social and business life better and more manageable. Give yourself the gift you want and the lost hours you need.

Safe and Effective Hair Straightening

Everyone wants straight hair. The past couple of years have been very exciting in the Hair industry. The arrival of the Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening treatment has

opened to doors to some innovative hair products. While the Brazilian Keratin Treatment was nothing short of amazing, there have been some major health risks released about

extremely high levels of formaldehyde. Since the health risk release we have seen several alterative Brazilian Keratin Treatments. Most of them claiming to be free of

Formaldehyde. Turns out that the majority of them have Formalin in them and when heated to 450 degrees (as you have to when performing a BKT) the Formalin turns into a

formaldehyde gas. So let's talk about what is out there that is truly safe.

The first product is called Pravana Perfection. Pravana Perfection At Last. Breathe Easy. Your hair will be instantly transformed and smoothed to perfection. The Superb

Shine will last for months! The Perfection SmoothOut? employs the most advanced technology to expertly restore hair to an incredibly healthy and gorgeous state beyond

expectations. Perfections proprietary Nano-Amino Complex? miraculously suspends the internal texture memory of the hair to safely transform it to a new, soft and sensual

look and feel. The Perfection SmoothOut? Solution has a low PH formula and contains no harsh chemicals, which makes it safe to use on all clients. This advanced formula

poses no health risk actually improves the integrity of the hair. Why Stop at Great When You Can Have Perfection? This is a great product it works very well as a deep

conditioner and will straighten your hair.

While meeting with my product rep this week I learned about a new straightening product from RedKen. This product gives you three choices. You can re-texture straight hair

to have curls, you can straighten your hair perfectly stick straight, or you can tone down your curls/frizz without eliminating your curls and body. While the Pravana

Perfection does not use chemicals the NEW REDKEN product does. However the technology in this product is amazing. Anyone who knows anything about perms or relaxers will

tell you how harsh the chemicals are on their hair. The reason why perms and relaxers can often leave your hair feeling dry, unmanageable and damaged beyond words is

because during the processing of the products the chemicals BREAK APART the bonds in your hair. The new products from RedKen use the advanced technology of STRETCHING the

bonds. This new process does not break your bonds but rather stretched them just enough for the product to get in and penetrate the cuticle without damaging your hair. This

is the most advanced hair straightening product on the market.

Wasting Time Blow Drying Your Hair Try The Brazilian Blow Dry

Most of us can only dream of achieving the sleek and bouncy hair that we see celebrities on the red carpet sporting. This is down the fact that most of us just don't have

the time or the tools to produce such glossy locks. We all want great looking, styled hair, so what is the answer for us normal people who don't have a team of stylists

working on our look or the money to spend on all the latest miracle products?

The answer is the Brazilian Blow Dry. If you've never heard of this wonder treatment, then listen up! The Brazilian Blow Dry not only leaves your hair looking amazingly

sleek and beautiful without you having to barely lift a finger, but it also dramatically improves the condition of dry, damaged and frizzy hair. This treatment is perfect

for those wanting to look fabulous with minimum effort. If you are on a tight schedule but still want to make a great first impression at work then the Brazilian Blow Dry

will let you do so without having to spend your morning slaving away with heated appliances!

If you are the sort of girl who hates rain, refuses to get her wet when swimming and dreads going abroad to a humid country for fear of frizz then the Brazilian Blow Dry

could literally be a lifesaver for you and your barnet. After you have had the treatment not even humidity or rain will be able to put a downer on your silky smooth locks

and you will emerge from the rainstorm frizz free and still fabulous, if not a little damp!

If this all sounds great to you, then you're probably wondering how this miracle treatment works! Well, the Brazilian Blow Dry otherwise known as the Permanent Blow Dry

basically works by coating the cuticles with a keratin-rich solution of essential vitamins, proteins and nutrients which leaves the hair moisturised and sleek. The solution

is sealed into the hair shaft by using a hot iron. This means that the solution is fully absorbed into the hair so that the vitamin-packed solution can get to work

repairing any damaged areas and preventing further damage by forming a protective coating.

The process will take anywhere from 1 ½ to 3 hours depending on the thickness and length of the clients hair and you can expect the results to last up to 4 months. It is

important to remember that you will not be able to wash or get your hair wet for up to 72 hours after the treatment. This allows the solution to properly sink into the hair

and for the hair to soak up all the goodness it needs to look amazing everyday. You also must avoid tying your hair up, using hair bands or clips or even tucking it behind

your ears as this could cause a permanent kink in your finished sleek style. You want your hair to be as smooth as possible once you are allowed to wash it so it really is

worth it to stick to these aftercare guidelines.

As mentioned, the results will last for up to 4 months and will fade progressively as the hair is washed. During these 4 months you can enjoy beautifully smooth, straight

locks all without having to lift a finger when it comes to styling. No more hours of harsh blow drying and tugging and your curls to try and flatten them or inflicting

hours of hot straightening on your already frazzled locks. After the Brazilian Blow Dry all you will have to do is towel dry your hair, (maybe run your straighteners over

your hair if it was extremely curly to start off with) and head out the door ready to face the world with your beautiful new do!
