Holiday Hair Appointments! Get 'em While They're HOT!
Tuesday November 18, 2008
I can't believe how fast this year has gone by, but the temperatures outside remind me that winter is here, and the holidays are upon us.
Are you going to look your best this holiday season? Got a big party to attend or a family gathering that you want to show up with your very look? Well, you better make those appointments as soon as possible (if you haven't already)! The holidays are probably one of the busiest times of the year in the salon, and I know you don't want to show up on Christmas morning with two inches of regrowth. Aunt Myrtle will surely call you out in front of everyone just as the mashed potatoes are being passed!
So don't put it off for another minute. Stop what you're doing, call your stylist, and make that appointment. Right now. Go!

For the holiday season, try recreating the 80’s reminiscent waves seen recently on Madonna and Lindsay Lohan. An updated version of “crimping” this style results in big dippy waves that are wearable versions of recent runway styles.
How to get the look:
start with slightly dirty hair, washed the day before. This will help give more texture to each hair strand and hold the wave best.
Tools:
long bobby pins
tissue
hairspray
Directions:
Work with hair in two inch sections at a time starting at the top of the head and working down. Hairspray the section and then wind it in a circle until you almost reach the scalp. (It helps to use a finger to loosely wind the hair and once you get a circle just pull your finger out and secure the loop with a bobby pin.) Place a piece of tissue under the bobby pin first, to help prevent creasing the hair from the pin. Continue with the rest of the hair until you run out. The trick to this look is to leave the root area flat and to have the ocean wave continuing through the rest of the hair.
Let hair sit for 20 -30 minutes then un-wind each loop. Lightly finger comb the hair to unite the sections and voila – amazing waves!
