Fresh Hair looks for the Spring

admin — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 19:02:05 +0000

Each season we look in magazines, on T.V., on the internet to see what the hair trends are for that season. Celebrities are most widely followed to see what they are wearing or what they are doing. This year you will notice the trend with hair is inspired by the 60′s and 70′s. From the Mia Farrow cut, to soft waves and everything in between is easy and fun for everyone.

If you are someone who likes the look of soft waves that move with you or a fun pony then these two looks are for you. The first look is for those of you who want to feel as though you are about to walk the red carpet. Feel glamorous all the way with theses soft waves:

If your hair is past your shoulders you will want to use a 1″ iron. shoulder length should be 3/4″.
Take 1″ pieces and curl end to root.
Set each curl with a clip and spray.
Once all your hair is all curled let it cool.
Take down and spray then take a paddle brush and brush out gently.

Now you are ready to hit the town for any occasion. Our next look can be done two ways. We can do sleek and elegant or fun and playful. I’m talking about the ponytail. We will transition from one look to the other with ease and you will be doing them all the time. Our look is the ponytail:

This look is the side pony and you will need to make sure your hair is nice and smooth.
Choose your desired side and smoothly pull your hair to that side.
You can use a flat-iron or a small curling iron to curl you pony taking small pieces.
Once all curled take a comb or brush and tease for flare.

The next look is one you can transition to from a fun pony. This is the sleek and elegant high pony.

You will want to smooth out your hair with a flat-iron.
Once you have your hair straight determine how high or low you want your pony. Start to smooth your hair and put it up at the desired point.
Take a piece of hair from the bottom side of your ponytail and wrap it around the hair tie to cover. Then take a bobby pin and lock the hair in place.
Go through and smooth the pony one last time and spray and you are ready to go and enjoy your night out on the town.

I hope you enjoy these few looks and remember to have fun with them. Hair is meant to be played with and always stay creative.

The long and short about Hair Extensions

With the Awards Season past, we look back at all the Starlets on the Red Carpet and behind the Microphones and ask ourselves….Was that her hair? Well, yes it was… in a manner of speaking…

You will find that the majority of aspiring and established stars at one point in their lives have donned Hair Extensions. Just think about it…how fast do you think they can get ready for their next big role? After all, hair only grows 1/2 inch per month. You can make your hair look longer by using tricks like wearing a Turtleneck….but who wants to wear one of those everyday!

The real trick is Hair Extensions. They are as commonplace enough in contemporary society today that they should be considered as a choice in the modern woman’s wardrobe. But just like any fashion, there are guidelines to know to get the best results. Here are a few:

First: A common misconception: Hair Extensions use real hair. There is a place for “non-real” hair in the beauty industry, but its primary use is for braiding not extensions. So, is it real? Yeah, it’s real.

Second: Price = Quality. There ARE different grades of hair used for extensions. Make sure your Stylist is offering you the best choices to choose from. Better hair will wear better and keep up better…it will also look more natural, which in this “On-Stage” world is the proof in the pudding!

Third: Your Stylists skill level and Technique will make all the difference in the world in how long and how natural your Extensions look. Make sure He or She has years of experience. There are times for experimenting and shopping for the lowest price, this is not one of them.

Fourth: It seems like a new Technique is invented every year to do Hair Extensions. They come down to 3 main branches of techniques: Gluing or Bonding, Weaving and Fusion. Glue in Hair should only be used in a pinch for special occasions, since it will come out the first time you wash it. Weaving techniques generally last up to 2 months with regular maintenance while Fusion techniques can last up to 6 months. Not all techniques can be used with all hair types, so again, make sure you ask your Stylist before committing.

Fifth: Like most things, Hair Extensions will need maintenance. Some form of periodic tightening might be necessary or for longer applications, simply maintaining consistency of color between your hair and the extensions will be required. Proper maintenance can also help prevent avoidable problems such as hair breakage.

Lucky for you, Our Master Stylist Rhonda has done Hair Extensions at Mode for many years and developed her skill set as a Stylist in New York City. She has done work for Business Women and On-Air Personalities alike using the So.Cap Fusion Method as well as traditional Weaving. If you are looking for true expertise, give Mode Salon a call and set up a consultation. You will be glad you did.

No matter what goals you aim to achieve with Hair Extensions, be it giving your hair a break from chemicals, going low maintenance in the summer, giving your hair a chance to grow without stress breakage or just going Glam on your own Red Carpet, get the facts about Hair Extensions, and go for it!
