Hair to Make You Smile


What is the purpose of wearing hair extensions, or a new hair style for that matter? For most of us it is to feel better about ourselves and be comfortable and confident in our appearance, but once the styles are designed, or the extensions are applied, being able to work with your hair to recreate the vision you were pleased with when you left the salon is up to you at home.

Most of the time your stylist will be more than happy to walk you through the process of what products and styling aids are being used to create your look. And yes, proper use of the proper products for your hair are essential to achieve your desired outcome. Guiding you through the proper blow drying techniques, what brushes to use, and flat or curling iron, will take some practice and getting use to at home, but with a little bit of time and patience you will be able to recreate your salon image.

It is important to understand that a good style will not last forever and a fresh cut or extension application is always going to require regular routine maintenance and visits to your professional. Just as a haircut and color requires refreshing every 4 to 8 weeks to maintain that fresh coiffed feel, look and polish, understand that hair extensions do as well.

Peace and Happy Holidays!
