Memorable Eyes ^Featured

Super sexy kitten eyes are easily achieved with the new LashLiner from NovaLash. The micro slim pencil is designed to reach inside the lash line to deposit tiny dots of rich, black, in between each eyelash hair to create a thicker, darker lash line, says the company. The pencil can be sharpened to create a finer point to allow for more control. LashLiner can be used alone or with eyeliner.

Color Concentration Class

Hair color doesn't work the way it's supposed to -- does it? Presented to us in manufacturers classes and school we find out later in the chair and at the sink that we may get undesirable results [brass, red tones, banding, fade, damage and all manner of coverage issues] for which we are held responsible. These are exactly the reasons color clients are not returning to our salons. There has not been a significant change in the way we use developers or color since hair color was invented ~ until now!

Diversion - Why it hurts us all

If you go to your local drugstore. You will see aisles of professional shampoo's, conditioners and styling products.

Sam's Club, CVS, Publix, Rite Aid,Target, Costco, Ross, TJ Maxx, and so many more stores are selling professional products that we professionals and only professionals should be selling!

Diversion hurts us all! It steals money from us, and takes away our livelihood. Why then, am I seeing so many diverted products being sold in so many salons across the United States?

Gray Hair

Gray hair, according to new findings, is caused by a massive build up of hydrogen peroxide due to wear and tear on hair follicles. The peroxide winds up blocking the normal synthesis of melanin, your hair's natural pigment. All hair cells make a tiny bit of hydrogen peroxide, but as you age, the amount increases. Essentially, you bleach our hair pigment from within, and your hair turns gray and then white.
