Confession: Are you Beachy or Brazilian?
Catch up on your Zzz’s in the morning, and save time doing your hair! Imagine stepping out of the shower with hair ready to go. For some of us air-drying is a nightmare, and for others straight hair is only a dream. Until now.
Welcome to the world of options: The Beach Perm and The Brazilian Blowout. Which one is for you? Read below to find out.
The Beach Perm
The beach perm is a new, sexy take on an outdated chemical process ideal for people with thin or fine hair seeking to give it a little more life. The Beach Wave infuses the hair with silk and human hair keratin to strengthen, protect and add shine to the new tousled do and leaves hair with natural looking waves without any messy styling. It’s new kind of perm- one that uses zero phthalates, and absolutely no animal by-product ingredients and doesn’t completely thrash your hair leaving you with a super 80′s afro. Who’s it for? Women with thin hair looking to add some body to it. As our stylist Rachel Strutt says, “It’s not your mama’s perm!”
The Brazilian Keratin Treatment
The Brazilian Blowout is basically a long term blow-dry for hair that lasts about three months. Because the formula only coats the hair shaft and does not penetrate it, the formula slowly washes out over a period of 3 months. Ideal for unruly waves or curls,It is used on frizzy, damaged, unhealthy, dull and mistreated hair. The most important change people notice after the BKT is that it eliminates frizzies and leaves hair sleek and smooth while also reducing hair styling time by ten to twenty mintures. Another plus is that this system is color, perm, and bleach safe! It actually locks the color in, making it look more vibrant and long lasting. Whether you have afro-licious thick hair or fine and frizzy hair, the Brazilian Blowout’s results can be noticed immediately on anyone, and if you get home sick for your curls, don’t worry! It’s only temporary.
Our stylists are trained and well educated in both of these processes.

Confession: Rinse.Lather.Repeat.
Five steps to clean hair.
There is nothing like getting your hair washed by a professional. Is it the shampoo? The hands? The water? Wrong. It is the technique. Yes, there is a technique to washing your hair.
1.) RINSE. Wet your hair. COMPLETELY. This may sounds like a no brainer but it is rarely done correctly. Your hair needs to be wet from scalp to ends. Surprisingly the scalp is actually what you want to wash the most because it creates the most oil.
2.) LATHER. Time to add the shampoo. Shampoo has ingredients that break down oils, so even if you are not getting a ton of lather, do not fear! The shampoo is doing it’s job even if you can’t see it. You should only be using a quarter size of shampoo squirted into your hand. Rub it around a little bit and then apply it to your scalp, rub it around, rinse.
3.) REPEAT. Do the process again. This time you should get a little more lather. Shampoo your ends this time around and rinse. Your hair should be squeaky clean now.
For frequent shampoo-ers, we recommend Bumble and Bumble’s seaweed shampoo. It is very mild and safe for color treated hair.
