What is your level of frustration with your frizzy hair?
If your frizzy hair has you wanting to just scream, then you are not alone. You do not have to suffer from it any longer, either.
Your Shampoo Matters!
Frizzy Hair Tip #1
Is it necessary to shampoo your hair every day? That will depend on your lifestyle.
Why shampoo matters is when you experience having a professional assessment of your hair type, then a professional hairstylist will be able to determine if your hair’s texture is fine, medium or coarse.
Shampoo For Frizzy Hair & Why
You hair frizzes because it lacks moisture, and that is why it will expand. Your hair is attracted to the humidity in the area, and during the summer months you will find that it can or will become very unmanageable!
Imagine a dry sponge. What happens to it? It will expand.
A good haircare regimen for shampoo and conditioner is a must!
In particular, my studio carried JBeverly Hills Products, and their patented size molecule can actually deliver their healing ingredients into the inside of your hair.
Tips About Conditioners
An awesome “must-have” you should be using is a good leave-in conditioner. The reason why is it will act like a weather-proofing barrier. This type of conditioner is not to replace the one you would use in the shower. Layering your conditioner will not weigh your hair down.

There are different levels of knowledge of understanding, when it comes to “coloring hair”. My professionally expertise, involved formerly teaching for Redken; as a colorist.
Is there really a difference between working with a corrective color specialist, trying an online formulation company or a salon that “offers” hair color?
ABSOLUTELY!!
Coloring hair versus color correcting hair, are two very different things. In my professional experience, my ability to “see color”is grounded by the color wheel versus simply pulling a pretty color off of the shelf, after picking a shade out of a “color” book, and hoping for the best.
Elementary School….but not so elementary!
Color is very much like paint…it is just in a different form. Do you remember being in elementary school?
How do you make orange? Do you remember?
If you came up with:
Red & Yellow = Orange………then give yourself a pat on the back!
How many times have you watched a makeover t.v. show?
What is it that keeps you glued to the end of the makeover show? It is always the final after photograph or reveal!
How To Tips:
Maybe you are contemplating getting a makeover or simply making a change to your look?
Create a Pinterest board is extremely inspirational and really can be very, very helpful when communicating to a salon or stylist what your ideas are. Using pictures to verbalize what you want is truly the best way to share your idea
3. Share your DISLIKES! Yes, your dislikes! Be honest and upfront. You will find that the most creative hairstylists are not mind readers. It would be easier if we were, but it does not work that way.
Makeovers are about change. Change can be a bit scary, but does not have to be. As much as you may not know what you will want, it is safe to say that you will and do know what will not work for your hair!
4. Ask for a CONSULTATION!
It is best to work with a salon or stylist that offers a thorough consultation, and especially if you have a few things that you need to change with your look or hair.
As much as you may be tempted…..just like on t.v…….to possibly say “DO WHAT YOU WANT!“; if you have not established enough communication then what you had in mind and what the stylist has in mind………..might be very far apart.
5. Explore….How do you wish your hair could be better?
Ask yourself what bugs you the most because when it comes to working with an experienced makeover artist…..you will have several options to correct what you do not like.
If you fold your hands without even think about it…….you will find that one thumb will naturally go over the other. Try it.
Now try this, and fold your hands again, but this time have your other thumb be the one that goes on top of the other. It will feel a bit odd.
Real Expectation Tips:
Expect to feel different
Be patient with yourself about styling your new look. Be sure to ask or have the “how to” style your new look explained or re-explained.
Expectations of Others:
I have coached countless clients on what to possibly expect about how to hand the reaction from others. Your makeover will cause different reactions from others.
The closest people around you, sometimes get too use to THINGS BEING THE SAME!
Nosy people………“How much did you pay for that?
Best Professional Suggestion:
Own it! People respond to confidence, and on the very, very positive side of things………..get use to all of the compliments.
Most of us simple love real people makeovers!

Science Fiction is the invention of unrealistic ideas being tomorrow’s gadget, right?
Well, as a professional haircolorist….I draw a line when technology is trying to automate such an artistic profession.
True hair color formulation can be as artistic as a child playing with finger paints when they discover that if they mix a two colors that they will get a third.
It’s amazing how as we all (or quite of few of us) are so
eager to use computers, smartphones (love mine), and self checkout. It comes with a price.
Have you ever thought of what that price is? The price of automation?
How many times do you actually need live 100% real human customer support when you have a problem?
Haven’t you ever tried to call a customer service number and only after yo
u have been tortured to go through all of
the prompts….maybe even push the the wrong selection to only have to hang up and try again?
In a day in age, where all of the gadgets that were featured in the icon cartoon “The Jetsons”, not in a million years would I ever expected to see a touch screen computer trying to sell what I call “the ease of use” of the non-professional haircolor that is found at local retailers.
The “system” in itself may actually have great information but there is one factor that the big haircolor companies are leaving in your hands…….the non-hair colorist consumer being able to truly judge their own natural haircolor level.
As I stood in front of this computer
screen, in utter disbelief, I turn to my friend and joked that the big companies should
have a second screen next to it…..
Being a professional corrective hair colorist for close to twenty years, I have first hand experience correcting hair color that did not come out as hoped.
It’s been quite some time since our blog has had a post
about haircolor. Why? Well, thank you for stopping by our blog to begin with, and the very first article was about the “why” behind choosing the “at home” hair color or seeking out a salon with a professional hair colorist.
One thing I can professionally share with you that if you are someone that is interested in odds…….I would professionally recommend a salon than trying to guess what your own natural haircolor is, and hoping that “the box” is right.
Automated “formula advice giving machines” still cannot offer what the salon professional can. I could not find a section that let you hang out, laugh, and share with your stylist the “goings on in your life”.
Did you know that both salons and the big color companies are grasping to get your attention and the fact is that the natural melanin (natural hair color level) only makes up 1% of your hair strand.
Yes, that’s right 1%. Everything else is moisture, protein, salt bonds, disulfide bonds, carbs and more.
Maybe you are not into science, however science is what hair color is about.
What is the price of automation? Every service that we are prompted to do our selves by way of advertising, inventions, self-computerized advancements really essentially disconnects us to some extent. Yet, we are convinced by “technology” that we are connected. The more computers make our lives “easier” the less there is left to do for us humans. Gee, isn’t that a chapter out of a sci-fi movie.
But hair color? Maybe I should build my robotic prototype to ensure that I still have a place in my industry, in the future….. lol.
So ….all you will need is a “Flowbee” and a Corporate Automated Formulating Computer screen to do your hair? That’s sad.
Maybe technology will intergrade or upgrade the system to listen to a clients woes or celebrations?
Artificial Intelligence and Hair Color………what’s next? Hologram Relationship?
Finding the right haircolor can be hard to do, on your own.
Have you ever stood in the haircolor aisle looking at all of the boxes of haircolor?
It is the advertising that makes that $7.00 box of color look so appealing.
The grocery store haircolor companies are investing lots, and lots of money into enticing the consumer into taking their own haircolor into their own hands.
Some of the companies have even included highlightening tools and combs.
They make it look easy, however the outcome may not look like it does on the box, and then what???
The benefits to having your haircolor professional done are many.
The most advantageous reason is working with a Redken Certified Colorist is that they are train specifically in color and color formulation.
Everyone has their own unique style, eyecolor and skintone. All of which is taken in consideration during a haircolor consultation. Makeovers can be just a slight change or to the extreme.
AFTER!!!
The right shade selection of haircolor is an art and skill.
It can literally shave years off someone’s look. If you think that the grocery store aisle has a lot of choices, you should see what a salon has to offer.
Many salons are beginning to store their professional haircolor out in plain sight.
Redken believe’s in making the colorist’s and clients’ color experience very interactive.
You can use www.redken.com salon locator to find redken salon’s.
You can also use www.redkencolor.comto find Redken Color salon’s and Redken Certified Colorists
It is great when you can actually see before and after photography of what the salon of your choice, is offering.
Photographs speak a 1,000 words…and sometimes more.
So, from looking Sleek, sophisticated or wanting to look “Ten Years Younger” working with a professional color line and a professional Certified Redken Colorist you are guaranteed to look great!
