Medium Layers Lowlights



Medium hairstyles are hot hot hot when styled in the right way and given the right colors and this hairstyle design from Jamison Shaw Salons in Atlanta, Georgia is hands down fantastic in proving this point. You want layers, you got it. You want complimentary hair color, its presented in contrasting colors with low-lights. You want facial framing, it is done perfectly to show the eyes, lips and cheeks. The sweep across the face is the perfect finish to a beautiful hairstyle by the salon. For those lucky enough to be in the area, definitely drop in and see what they can do and oh send a picture to my email so I can post it up.

PR Fresh Looks Makeover

Everyone has go to love salon makeovers no matter what the occasion and before and after photos are designed to show dramatic changes in cut, color, and style which is why many before photos are taken with the client in their worse hairstyle, un-styled and untouched. We look at the dramatic change and we fall in love with the hairstyle makeover and that is why we have to point out those that are done greatly. PR at Partners Salon and Spa does a hands down fantastic job with their Fresh Looks total makeover. From changing hair length to color and style, the staff does a fantastic job and here is an example.



The asymmetrical bob looks fantastic and the color is enhanced with highlights. The end result is a new hairstyle that does an excellent job at facial framing and compliments her look.

Pink Hair For Hope


October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and it is important for everyone to help this great cause. Although this is a hair style related blog, there are many fields that can still help with the issue and salons all over are joining. There are many ways that salons and their clients can help including donating proceeds from free haircuts or merchandise to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and other popular way is joining with SO.CAP.USA Hair Extensions’ Pink Hair For Hope program and purchasing a small pink hair extension for just $10 dollars with proceeds from the sale going towards the National Breast Cancer Foundation. It is such a simple step to take to help a very worthy cause. If you’re a salon owner or employee, find or suggest a way where your salon can help and for everyone else please help by participating with these salons. Below is a list of ideas and websites that are good sources to learn more about Breast Cancer Awareness.

Ideas for Salons:
Free Day of Haircuts with Proceeds Going to the foundation
Selling T-shirts or other merchandise like these cute scrunchies

Kate Moss Wax Figure

It is amazing how the people who create these wax figures put so much detail in their work. I have been to a wax museum and it is very shocking just to see. For the recent London fashion week, there was a creation of model Kate Moss and I just had to talk about the hair they placed on the wax figure. Not only does it look totally real but it is styled in a beautiful style that the model would wear to some red carpet event. This leaves me to wonder if the hair is infused into the figure itself or they use a very good wig that is pre-styled.

Bilson Ad for TRESemme



Rachel Bilson has been a model for many products and after browsing around I found a great picture of her for her new ad campaign for TRESemme. I love this hairstyle but it looks hard to get done without some very professional help. The hairstyle is a chignon style look without a tight bun and instead looser sections are tied together. The front of the hairstyle is amazing with a long sweep on one side. I wish they would load the video for doing this exact look as many of my friends are not able to style this look so well. Here is the picture and a great site to visit is http://style-seeker.tresemme.com

Beautiful Red Frenzy Hair


Peter_Berberian_2_medium, originally uploaded by A Fine Frenzy.

Red hair can range from brassy in tone to vibrant with flair and we want to take a look at some stars in this section, starting with A Fine Frenzy's Alison Sudol who has a rich shade of red on her album cover and it this great shot. Everyone has to love this hairstyle with a large, swept bangs, and large curls midway through her hair. She looks gorgeous with this hairstyle, better than the one on her album cover.

For women with red hair we have a few tips to keep it rich and dark or colorful and vibrant. First there is protection from the sun. Exposure to the sun or even elements in swimming pools can really turn red shades dull. Use protecting sprays to finish off a hairstyle for days of major outdoor exposure. Try to stay away from major color changes like say to blond or black. Use a color enhancing product at least once a month to keep the color at its fullest. For extra punch, a glaze seems to work very well with red hair color.

Bridal Hairstyle

There are plenty of hair salons that offer bridal hairstyling services and it is time to highlight some of the best bridal hairstylist out there. This section should grow dramatically as more and more stylists send in their photos. Well lets start by showing a beautifully done bridal hairstyle from New York City, the East Village to be exact. Hair by Stacy Pitt offers hairstyling services from simple cuts to extensions but her work on wedding hairstyles is where her talent really shows. There are some great samples of her work and the one below is one of the best.


The hair is styled in a wide updo that is full of curled pieces. The wide updo is one of the harder ways to style to match facial features but it is done very well here with enough spacing in the updo and with proper size of the curls. The floral accessory just tops off the entire look and the bride has to be very happy with such a beautiful hairstyle. Kudos to Stacy for some awesome styling work.
