TRANSITIONING IDEAS

9/27/2017

 
TRANSITIONING TO GRAY HAIR AFTER YEARS OF TINTING

​
When a client says these magic words: “I’m Done!” – as in, “I’m done coloring my hair every two to six weeks (and never really liking the results anyway!)” -I know she is ready to transition. More and more women these days are deciding to go natural and embrace, and even enhance, their gray hair. I see women in their early thirties with very few gray hairs to older women with completely white hair, and every combination in between, come in and say, “I’m Done!”

After making the decision, however, many find it frustrating and challenging to wait up to two years, depending on the length of the hair, for the gray to completely grow in. I get it; the in-between stage of half-gray and half-tinted is not a flattering look. But cutting the hair short does not have to be an option!
Transitioning to gray hair does not have to be a long, drawn-out process with ugly or unwanted color. I can transition you in one to three visits depending on the lightness or darkness of your existing color. Each time you leave my studio, your hair will be beautiful and more natural-looking with platinum, silver, or white strands. And if it does take two to three visits for the transition, the visits are months apart, allowing your hair to grow and blend before I may need to adjust it further.

All I need is one month of growth to start the transition (longer is great but not necessary), enough to see your natural gray pattern. After determining the amount of white verses dark hair, and where it is on the head, I will follow that pattern by applying an appropriate amount of white strands to the length of the hair, creating a balance of light and dark so the hair will grow in without a line of demarcation. If you’ve been coloring your hair light brown or dark blonde the transition can be accomplished in just one visit!
​
Whatever time it takes for your hair to grow in fully, your journey will be pleasurable and easy, and you will love every stage. Every client I have helped transition has been amazed and thrilled with the results!

COOL TONES 

White, silver, and platinum used to be considered hair color tones worn only by grandmothers. Not anymore! Today these tones are very much in style, and work great on all age groups. White, silver, platinum, and pewter – or “cool” tones – are all rich, modern, high fashion tones that complement almost every color wardrobe. Silver and platinum jewelry looks young, bright and fresh on nearly everyone, so why not hair color? In fact, as our hair starts to gray, our skin tones change as well, allowing these shades to complement the complexion rather than contrast with it. However, graying hair is not limited to people over forty or fifty, it’s also experienced by young adults in their teens and twenties, and, with the right treatment, can look gorgeous on anyone.

Cooler tones work best when blended with or used to enhance existing gray. To achieve this, I can do anything from adding just a few strands of platinum or silver to enhance your existing gray or silver all the way to giving you a full head of platinum, or any combination in between. Embracing your gray does not have to be boring or aging, but fun, liberating and exciting! If you’ve been covering up those pesky grays and not liking the results, it’s time to rethink your hair color. I can help you transition from flat one-dimensional color to vibrant, cool tones of silver, platinum, white, and pewter, which will ultimately work better for you and your lifestyle.
​

After I complete your transition, I can help keep your color looking fantastic by giving the hair whatever it needs – a color glaze to eliminate yellow tones and add shine, or adding platinum or silver strands to brighten certain key areas, especially around the face. I can also add dark strands to areas such as the nape and back to create a more dramatic contrast. Whatever it takes to make the hair look beautiful! Everyone I have helped transition has absolutely loved the results!

Are you ready to be “cool”?

American Wave Perm Stylist Las Vegas

9/25/2017

The American Wave System, created by Master Stylist Nick Arrojo, is a new and exclusive wave and texture enhancing system that creates a range of customized hair textures and lengths, from cascading beauty waves to full-blown curls.

“The American Wave was born to create soft, natural-looking waves and curl patterns for today’s style-conscious consumer,” explains Nick. "Clients with all hair types are eligible for the American Wave. The formula lasts for three months and works with many permanent and demi-permanent hair colors.
​

American Wave is THIO and AMMONIA FREE, positively charged (so it attracts to the hair shaft, rather than repel it), and uses modern ionic technology. It means the product gently seeps into the hair shaft without causing dryness, damage or unpleasant odors while creating a mélange of textures. The system uses a combination of ‘soft tools’ to reduce the stress on the hair, as well as a specialized lotion that reconditions the hair for a smoother cuticle and natural wave movement.

Clients with all hair type are eligible for American Wave. The treatment is not suitable for hair highlighted beyond 25 percent. Accordingly, a consultation is recommended for anyone with lightened hair. 

Options:
The American Wave can be customized for a range of hair textures and lengths including:

The Beach Wave: Arrojo stylists like myself, use a vertical drag soft tool technique to marry straight and wavy textures to create beach waves.


Style Support: For clients with fine and/or straight hair, Style Support uses a new spin on soft tool wrapping techniques. It adds volume and texture to hair that lacks life and vitality by creating a resilient consistent wave.

Expanded Curls: For those with curly hair, Texture Specialists use a round soft tool wrapping technique to create buoyant and resilient waves and curls.
