As the Chair Turns - July 2021

Is it really July already?

Are you as excited about things opening back up as I am? I know we still need to be very mindful and taking precautions, but boy howdy, it sure is nice to see sporting arenas full of cheering fans again. Not to mention seeing concerts and other events being scheduled once again. Watching clips of recent games and events and seeing those empty arenas is a stark reminder of where things were just a few short months ago.

I’m a little late getting this out this month. The excitement of heading to Colorado and spending time with my Mom took priority this month.

I hope you’ve had a safe 4th and enjoyed the extra days with family and friends.

Summer is here and I am here to help you (and your hair) make the best of these lazy days of summer.

First off are essential tips for summer hair care. Cover it up, wear it loose, wash less often, and condition, condition, condition. You might even want to consider following a no shampoo method.

With summer, comes the Summer Trends.

For you ladies: “Looks from the early 2000s are definitely coming back. Chunky highlights, colorful streaks and especially rose gold and pink are some of the top requests in the salon today.”
For you guys: Looks are leaning toward longer, looser locks—think variations of mullet shapes (yeah, I know) and shags, heavily ’70s-influenced. Much of this trend can be attributed to men visiting their groomers less often in pandemic times—but, that reality places even more of an emphasis on the quality of the cut.

I’m sure you’ve heard of purple shampoo, right. But did you know there are blue shampoos, too? It’s all about the color wheel. Opposite colors neutralize, or cancel each other out. Purple shampoo and blue shampoo work in a similar way, canceling brassy tones in your hair color. Because purple and yellow are opposites on the color wheel, violet pigments cancel out brassy yellow tones, which makes it great for making blonde hair more neutral. However, the purple shampoo will not work as well for caramel highlights or ash brown hair, as brassy orange is best neutralized by blue pigments.

Have you put your summer reading list together yet? Audiobooks are prefect for road trips or lounging by the pool (or not). There's no better place to check out that audiobook you've been meaning to "read" than your local library.

Have you ever wondered why people started wearing powdered wigs? And why we don’t anymore?

That’s just some of what I have for you this month.

I know I’m probably sounding like a broken record, but I really do appreciate you. It’s because of you that I’m still here for you and your hair needs.

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

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Be well. Take Hair!
