Summer Haircuts: Trendy, Bold and Sexy!

Every year we witness the emergence of new, sometimes revamped, trends. This year, we are seeing  a revival of iconic haircuts and styles that takes us back to the 60's, 70's and 80's.

These iconic trends are reinterpreted to fit today's demanding needs for exciting and unique styles.

 Here are the top haircuts that are in vogue this summer:


The Mod Hair Cut: (aka 5 point cut, the Beatles cut and the mushroom cut) made its grand entrance in the 60's. This cut is perfect for anybody who is always on top of current trends and always willing to experiment.

Afro Cuts/Styles Although 2011 was the year that re-introduced the afro, we are still seeing it on the red carpet. The afro of the 70's  has been redifined into an afro that has lots of shape and movement. Very sexy!

Solange Knowles

Brandy




Asymmetrical Hair Cuts: These cuts are edgy and elegant. They demand volume, shape and a quiet yet defining parting. Thus, creating a bombshell hairstyle.

Home Hair Coloring: Tips on How to Reduce Your Anxiety and Increase Your Confidence

We take pride on being self-sufficient. In fact, as parents we encourage our children to be independent from a very early age. Do-It-Yourself (DIY) projects are increasingly becoming  more and more like a staple for cautious spending. As a colorist, I do not condemn the use of store bought color. I believe people have needs and sometimes their resources cannot fully meet them. Another driving force to an increase in DIY home coloring, is today's economy and the Covid-19 Pandemic. Many men and women are finding very difficult to see their stylists on a regular basis, so they take the DIY challenge to save money and time. However, with any undertaken challenge comes a mixture of emotions. Going to a drug store to choose the perfect hair color shade can be a very daunting experience. The biggest obstacle for women (and men) is choosing the right shade. Manufacturers do a fantastic campaign job ( with high profile mo...

      “If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all” Michelangelo Instant mastery of hairdressing skills is something we all like to achieve as soon as we complete beauty school. Wait, not so fast! The reality is that the road ahead can be demanding and laborious. Becoming a master hairdresser requires humility, patience and hard work. Like any other field, hairdressing has its specialties (color and hairstyling) and sub specialties (keratin, texture hair, sessions, updo, etc.). It gives us ample choices to select an area to master. It's been tested and tried, no matter the field, that time and practice leads to expertise. No matter where you are, it takes at least two years of preparation to be a good hairdresser and six years and above to be great or achieve mastery. No matter how skillful you may think you are, the more you learn the greater you’ll be. Albert Einstein once said “Only one who devote...
