SOMETHING NEW

Last week I did a color for a friend and she let me try something new. It turned out pretty cool and I thought it would be fun to post here to give some of you an idea of something your hair designer could try on you! DO NOT DO THIS YOURSELF!!! You could get this done using so many different colors and tones! If you are looking for a more natural look you could do a really dark brown on the bottom and a few shades lighter on the top giving it a natural but different look. Think outside the box and you and your hair designer might come up with something completely original, something you may LOVE!

I sectioned off a star (sort of) shape on the top portion of her hair. I colored the star a very bold vibrant red color (redkin 5cr 20vol) Then used a dark chocolate brown on the rest of the hair (redkin 3N 20vol).


Just so everyone knows I didn't have time to cut my friend's hair so I will post the end result as soon as I can! She looks beautiful and I can't wait to show you all!
If anyone is daring enough to try this let me know, I want to see pictures and hear how you like it!

DARLING GIRLS WITH OPPOSITE HAIR TYPES

I wanted to show an example of some really great haircuts for two completely different types of hair.

Kylie has really straight, fine hair. I wanted to give her a hair cut that would give her the appearance of thicker hair. This hair cut really gives kylie a lot more body and this is one of my favorite haircuts for little girls with really thin, fine hair.


After

Jaydin has a beautiful head of thick, curly hair. Her hair was all one length when she came to see me. As you can see in her before picture the top of her hair is a lot straighter then the sides and underneath. So to help give the top more bounce and curl we layered her hair a little bit especially on the top and in the front of her hair. It turned out really cute and hopefully will make it easier to style for Jaydins mom!
*If your hair is naturally curly it is always a good idea to have layers in your hair. The worst is when its cut all one length making your hair look like a triangle (close to your head on top and really puffy and big down near the ends). Layers will soften your style and help give you more even curls on top and underneath.

Before

I wish I would have got a picture of her hair all the way down on top so you could see the layers. I will have to have Jaydin come over again so I can get a better picture.
