Have you ever?

I'm sure we'ge all ben there..... I just want a few highlights... No need to go to the salon I'll put them in with kitchen foil.... I know I'ge been down that road, granted my hair in highschool was emo long, I'd flat iron it for an hour, and it was very blonde with platinum highlights. It wasn't until after beauty school that I realised.... Bleach at home wasn't such a good idea. I know that it can be a money issue or a time issue. But ask your stylist if instead she can figure out a way to do your colour and have it only need to be touched up every six or eight weeks instead of five. We have a few tricks up our sleeve to stretch those highlights so you don't end up like this

Summer Lights

So Balyage is still a huge trend in hair colour this season. We are slowly moving away from the contrasting Ombre looks and moving more into painted on highlights.
I find this technique gorgeous. It looks so beautifull and natural. It's a great quick pick me up from the winter months. Want a change and not go crazy? Do some Balyage Highlights =D

Blonde Transformation

I took one of my friends blonde, she always thought she could never be blonde and look good. Well I told her when I first started doing her hair that I'd get her blonde one day. As per usual I always get my way. She won't be staying this blonde colour for long, she wants to go teal coloured soon, but I thought I'd share this little tid bi with you guys. Any colour is possible, it just depends on the tone you pick out :)
Are there colours out there that you think you can't pull off?

Fashion Week Footage

So here's the video from the Eveline Charles Academy Showcase I modelled for. It was weird modelling. Being on stage was fun, it reminded me off when I danced. It was a really fun to be IN a fashion show, instead of just being backstage.

Blogception

So i'm writing a blog about a blog that has my picture in it. Blogception hey? We were doing a happy hour event at the west edmonton mall, EC location. I had a lot of fun with my new clients and hope everyone had a good time. This is also where we launhed our rehab cocktails, a relaxin deep conditioning treatment that caters to your your hairs needs. You get two amazing, specialised head and neck massage parties. With a hot towel that drapes over you and creates a zen like sensation.

New Blonde look

Soooo I did Danies hair again, now her hair is super blonde. Next time we're going even lighter :D what do you ya'll think?

Mens cut

So I saw this awesome mens cut on slikhaartv. This hair cut is super modern, fun and edgy. How many of you out there would want to try a shaved in part? Do you think egded lines are still cool? What do you guys think? Girls, would you want yo man to come home lookin as hot as this? Totally going to try this on a client :D

Makeover Wednesday

I got to do a makeover today on my good friend Devon. She had virgin hair. So off course for a colourist at heart this was like a nerd going rampage in a warhammer shop. I decided to warm up her natural colour and lightened her ends. She wanted it to look natural so I decided to balyage them. I love the hand painting technique, it always looks fabulous !!!
