The Amazing World Of OMBRE By Maria Arias 2012 was a year filled with wild hair colors and the amazing world of Ombre. Ombre is a French word that signifies “shaded or shadow.” In hair color it describes the gradual change in color from dark roots to light ends. The original Ombre debuted about 4 years ago. Cosmopolitan cities like Los Angeles and my beloved New York City Started this trend. Celebrities like Drew Barrymore, Jessica Biel and Chloe Kardashian became fans of this trend. It did not take long for the mainstream to take notice. Ombre was raw, blunt and it became the hottest trend ever requested at salons.   Ombre is still hotter than ever, thanks to this year’s makeover. Instead of the extreme and overpowering Ombre we saw in 2012 and the years before, expect 2013 to bring a more subtle and sophisticated form of Ombre.   Subtle Ombre is here to stay. It’s sexy, sensual, versatile, and easy to maintain. Sarah Jessica...

Hair is a fabric and like so, it has specific needs.  Bad hair habits jeopardize the integrity of your hair and scalp. Take a moment and write down your daily hair routine and compare it to what I considered to be the ten deadly sins to healthy and shiny hair: 1.  NOT MOISTURIZING YOUR ENDS Your natural scalp oil is vital to maintain shiny healthy hair. These oils contain ceramides, lipids, and vitamin E; just to name a few. Long hair tend to suffer a lot because this nutritious oil does not reach the ends of the hair. As results, the ends may become fragile and more susceptible to splitting. Nourishing your ends with a serum such as Rene Furterer Karite Repairing Serum   or Rene Furterer Overnight Repair and cutting as little as ¼ of an inch every 6-8 weeks will aid in reducing dryness and split ends. 2.   USING LOW END SHAMPOOS FILLED WITH SULFATES, SODIUM CHLORIDE AND OTHER HARSH INGRIEDIENTS It's been documented that shampoos ...

      “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...
