As the Chair Turns - December 2020

Is the year really coming to an end?
It has been a year to remember, that’s for sure.

I think I’ve mentioned this before. I have really missed you. Seeing your smiling eyes (because I can’t see your actual smiles yet) has been a real pick-me up.

In beauty school we were reminded there are very few professions where someone is allowed to place their hands on another person. Cosmetologists, aka hairstylist, are one of those few professions. We were already a touch deprived society. This pandemic has emphasized this even more. Besides taking care of your hair needs, I hope I'm helping to reduce or alleviate this in some small way.

As always I have quite a variety of articles for you.

The hair you might be losing during and because of this pandemic is to be expected. When we experience stress over an extended period of time, our stress hormones kick in to overdrive. This “shock hair loss” is a temporary hair loss from excessive shedding due to a shock to the system. The good news is that this type of hair loss will reverse once these “stressors” are alleviated. In the mean time, we need to be patient with ourselves, stay calm, and practice good stress management. 

It might be getting cooler out, but that is not a reason why your hair style has to be sacrificed. I have an article with amazing haircut ideas, short and long, for this winter.

For you guys that are enjoying your hair a little longer, have I got a “Hollywood” hair cut idea for you.

Barber? Stylist? Have you ever wondered what the difference was or if there even was a difference. Fret no more. I have an infograph and more to help you with your questions.

Some of you may be experiencing a little flaking on your scalp this winter. Is it dandruff or just a dry scalp? Hopefully the article I have for you will help answer any question or concerns you might have. 

I don’t know if you knew this, but beard growing and hair trimmers were some of the most searched Men’s Grooming questions. They were way up over last year.

I’ve been wanting to re-share an article about San Francisco’s Crosstown Trail but I hesitated because of the pandemic. But, what the heck. With some planning, calling ahead to restaurants, and of course a mask, a little fresh air might just be what the doctor ordered. 

I also have articles for you on the fastest way to blow dry your hair without damage, top hair dryers, a delicious recipe that I made, and a memorable look at hairstyles from the 1950’s.

And don’t forget I will be away December 25th through January 23rd so plan your appointments now for the Holidays.

As always, I am available by email, text or phone if you have any questions or concerns.
​

Be well. Take Hair! AND #MaskUp 😷

And HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
