The New Haircut Trend I Love: Movement, Shape and Hair That Actually Fits Your Life
The New Haircut Trend I Love: Movement, Shape and Hair That Actually Fits Your Life When clients ask me what's trending in haircuts, I can show them photos all day. Bobs. Layers. Bangs. Long face-framing pieces. Shorter shapes. But here's the question I think matters...
The Modern Silk Press: What I Want You to Know Before You Book
The Modern Silk Press: What I Want You to Know Before You Book There’s something about a beautiful Silk Press that never goes out of style. Movement. Shine. Softness. And that moment when you turn your head and realize your hair feels completely different without...
Lived-In Color: Why I Love Hair Color That Looks Beautiful Weeks Later
Lived-In Color: Why I Love Hair Color That Looks Beautiful Weeks Later One of my favorite shifts in hair color has been the move toward color that doesn’t look like it was created simply to impress you on appointment day. I want your color to look beautiful when you...
The Men’s Blow-Dry: The Grooming Step You May Be Missing
Once your hair reaches a certain length, the haircut is only part of the equation. If you have medium-length or longer hair, you’ve probably already noticed that the same cut can look completely different depending on how the hair is dried and styled. That’s where a...
Healthy Hair Is the New Luxury: Why I’m Putting Hair Health Before Hair Hype
Healthy Hair Is the New Luxury There will always be a new cut, color or style getting attention. But one of the hair trends I’m happiest to see is something much more fundamental: People are paying attention to the condition of their hair again. For me, that isn't...
Scalp Care Is Becoming Part of the Hair Conversation—and I’m Here for It
Scalp Care Is Becoming Part of the Hair Conversation—and I’m Here for It For years, most conversations about beautiful hair started somewhere around the middle of the hair strand. What shampoo are you using? What styling product? What heat tool? What color? Now I'm...
Beautiful Hair After 65: What I Want Women to Know About Changing Hair
Hair changes over time. That is normal. You may notice that your hair feels finer than it used to. Your texture may behave differently. Gray hair may feel drier or more resistant. A style that worked beautifully ten or twenty years ago may suddenly feel harder to...
Creative Color: Let Your Hair Say Something About You
Hair color can be practical. It can cover gray. Add dimension. Brighten your face. Refresh your look. But sometimes color can do something else entirely. It can say something about who you are. I love creative color because it gives you permission to step outside of...
Five Ways To Care For Your Hair In The Winter Time
Winter changes more than your wardrobe. Cold outdoor air, indoor heating, hats and the temptation to turn up the temperature everywhere can leave hair feeling drier and harder to manage. During the colder months, I usually encourage my clients to focus less on...
Five Ways To Care For You Hair In The Summer Time
Summer hair has its own personality. Heat, humidity, swimming, travel, sun exposure and more time outdoors can completely change how your normal routine behaves. Instead of fighting summer every day, I like to adjust the hair routine to work with it. 1. Start With...
Does A Silk Press Damage Your Hair?
This is one of the most important questions I hear about Silk Press services: Will it damage my hair? The most accurate answer is that heat styling has the potential to damage hair when it is done improperly, excessively or on hair that is already compromised. But...
Is Visiting A Hairstylist Monthly Good For Your Hair?
I’m sometimes asked whether coming to the salon every month automatically means healthier hair. Not necessarily. A regular salon routine can be extremely helpful, but the right schedule depends on what you’re maintaining. Someone with short precision haircuts may need...
How To Choose A Hair Stylist
Choosing a hairstylist is more personal than people sometimes realize. You’re trusting someone with your appearance, your hair health, your time, and in many cases a part of your confidence. That means the “best” stylist isn’t necessarily the person with the largest...
