London fashion week just ended and the new clothing fashions won’t hit the streets until October 2012!!! Kevin Murphy is ahead of the game and released his “Colour Bugs” earlier this month! It’s all the new rage on the fashionable streets of London and with celebrities alike. Kevin is realized that Coral, Pink and Purple are not only fashionable but selling nearly faster than he can produce them down in Australia! New “Colour Bug” colors due to come out any time now, we have gotten confirmation on Blues and Greens that will be hitting the streets A.S.A.P. From an L.A. rep!!! Lets get the streets of Santa Cruz and California at the top of the fashion and beauty charts! Come in and catch your color bugs before they fly off the shelves again!

Goodbye Winter Blues!

Jillian Wilkey — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 19:17:45 +0000

Don’t get caught in the rain with the frizzy blues. Let us help with smoother, more manageable hair to last through the Winter season. We are offering you our Keratin Complex Special for Thursday, November 18 and Friday, November 19 ONLY.

Special Price: $175 flat rate!

Regular Price: $275*

*For thick, coarse hair additional charges may apply.

What is the Keratin Complex Smoothing Treatment?

Keratin Complex infuses keratin deep into the hair cuticle, eliminating up to 95% of the frizz and leaves hair healthy, shiny, and luxurious.

Unlike a traditional chemical straightener which can make your hair feel great the first time and then dry and brittle after the second time, Keratin Complex will actually improve the condition of your hair with multiple applications. With proper care and maintenance, your hair will remain smoother for approximately 3-4 months.

Keratin Complex is formaldehyde-free and can be used on all hair types (previously colored, relaxed, or even highlighted hair). For those of you who have tried every product imaginable to tame your frizzy hair, Keratin Complex is the best solution ever–truly a life-changing experience.

If you are thinking about getting rid of frizzy hair- now is the time to call us at 831-429-6600 to schedule an appointment or get a free consultation before the special ends!

Loose Lips Sink Ships.

Victory rolls became popular in the late 1940′s and were meant to celebrate the Allies’ victory in WWII.

I find it easier to work on my hair when it is a little dirtier with help from a few items:

Dry Shampoo

Hair Spray

Bobby Pins & lots of them!

Rollers!

First, I part my hair (I prefer a side part, but center works well too!)and roll it all up.

After the rollers have set, I pull a section of hair vertically from just behind my ear.

I then spray this section with some dry shampoo and work it through with my fingers.

Following the curl pattern, I roll the section over two fingers creating a pin-curl look and pin it all in with some good ‘ol fashioned bobbies.

Repeat on the other side.

Hairspray your hair like crazy and voila! Sassy victory rolls.

No Milk Today

Over these past few weekends I have been spending most of my time sipping on tea and watching TMC. To which I pleasantly discovered the fantastic Ziegfeld Follies! This film is overflowing with some of the biggest talents from the 1940’s.

On top of great dance numbers by Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, beautiful serenades by the gorgeous Judy Garland- my eyes feasted upon Esther Williams delightful milkmaid braids in “A Water Ballet.”

Back in 1945 they made their silver screen appearance on Esther complimented by white flowers and they’re still making their rounds on contemporary celebrities such as Nicole Richie, Jennifer Connelly and Sienna Miller just to name a few.

They’re super simple. Either you can work with your own long hair or a braided extension piece from the salon (I prefer the latter.) Voila! Adorable milkmaid braids!
