For blonde hair in the ’70s, lemon & sunshine recommended (1977) Asbury Park Press (Asbury Park, New Jersey) April 11, 1977 If you’re a natural blonde, you know you have special problems when it comes to keeping your hair bright and shiny. Now a New York hairstylist has a special tip for blondes who find it hard to keep the “sunshine” in their hair. “Step one,” says Louis of Louis Guy-D, “is to wash the hair often with a gentle shampoo. Naturally blonde hair must be absolutely clean to be its brightest, and this may mean daily shampooing, for which baby shampoo is always recommended. “Blondes can’t go very long between shampoos before dirt and oil turn their hair ‘mousey’ looking. Also, when blonde hair is dry, it can look like straw. Baby shampoo doesn’t strip the hair of all its natural conditioners, which helps blonde hair shimmer with natural highlights.” Then, to continue the natural approach to bright, shiny blonde hair, Louis suggests a lemon or lime squeeze. “Simply take a lemon or lime and squeeze it onto freshly-washed hair, gently comb through and let dry, preferably in the sun, but a hairdryer will do on rainy days.” Louis says the citrus juices act as a mild bleach and gently lighten the hair. “Continue this treatment for a few days, and any natural blonde will see her hair lighten up, take on shiny highlights and glow just like sunshine,” promises Louis. “By starting this natural highlighting treatment now,” says Louis, “blondes can have sun-lightened hair well before it’s time to slip into that first bikini.” Speed up the sun with Sun-In (1970) Get the true sun-lightened look fast! Just spray on Sun-In. Give your hair that sun-lightened look that once took all summer. Sun In works with nice, warm, natural sunshine. Lightens faster than the sun.

Try regular or (for the maximum sun-lightened look) new Super Sun In. All you add is sun. California Blonde: The first lightener, toner & conditioner all in one.

Thanks to chemistry, the products we use to clean and style our hair have evolved over decades — even centuries. How do hairsprays protect your hair while keeping it flexible and light? What's the deal with sls? How do shampoos work, and why are some people choosing to dump the lather altogether? This week, “Ms. Beautyphile” Trina Espinoza and Lex Fleming from “Made U Look” join us in the New York City YouTube Space to explain the science behind hair care. The word Barber, is derived from the latin word “barba” meaning beard. It is a person whose occupation is to cut hair, perform shaves and trim beards. Hairstylist or Cosmetologist, is derived from the Greek word “kosmetikos” meaning “skilled in adornment”, and is the study of the application of beauty treatments (haircutting/hairstyling, skin care, cosmetics, manicures/pedicures and electrolysis). Barbers are also trained to provide facials, color and perm hair. This is quite similar to the services the hairstylist would perform; however, there are two very distinct differences between them. (1) Shaving – the art of shaving with a straight-razor can only be performed by a licensed barber. (2) Manicure/Pedicure – these two services can only be performed by a licensed cosmetologist or nail technician, not a barber. There are many men that seek out hairstylists for that “new” more trendy hairstyle, and in many cases the people they choose are perfect for that goal. But, don’t discount your barber just yet! The growing importance from men to look their best, is constantly putting pressure on barbers to expand their skill-sets. And, that’s pretty exciting for the barbering world! What is the Difference Between a Barber and a Hair Stylist? What is the difference between a Barber and a Hair Stylist? Does it matter? Well, when it comes to male grooming, guys have a couple of options. Aside from swanky shaving boutiques, “watch sports while you get your haircut” salons, and the classic men’s barbershop, the options for a men’s haircut boils down to two options: a Barber or a Hair Stylist. While knowing the core differences between the two professions can be helpful, we argue that choosing one over the other because of their title isn’t the best way to go. Making the Right Choice We’ve put together a thoughtful infographic detailing everything you need to know about Barbers and Hair Stylists – the tools they use, the skills they possess and the education they must attain. It may surprise you to learn just how much the two professions have in common! Make sure to read through to the end as we include our recommendation on how to choose the best option for you at the bottom. How to Choose between a Barber and a Hair Stylist
The main difference between a barber and a hair stylist is the fact that a barber can use a straight edge razor to shave your face. Now, the education piece is important as well. While cosmetologists learn a variety of skills during their time at school, Barber’s do spend more time learning about the different cutting and styling techniques on men’s hair. With that being said, we argue that your decision between a barber and a stylist should come down to the professional and not the profession. In our opinion, it doesn’t matter which license they hold – the quality of service, the integrity of the person, the commitment to their craft and their passion for the industry should matter much more. Making Your Decision The next time you are in need of a new stylist or barber here is our recommendation on how to choose between the two.
5/30/2019 0 Comments A Brief History of PomadesWe love a good origin story, and not just when it comes to superheroes. Pomades have undergone several transformations, from ingredients used to the class that uses them. No matter what, we’re happy that these tubs of grease have stood the test of time, making guys look sharp generation after generation.
We’re also thankful that bear fat is no longer a main ingredient. Read on for a bite-sized history of pomades. Where does the word “pomade” come from? “Pomade” is derived from the French word pomade, which means “ointment.” Pomade comes from the Latin pomum (fruit, apple) and Italian pomata (apple). That’s because pomades were originally made with mashed apples (as well as animal fats and herbs). Pomades were originally used as ointments and only later as hair products.

Even if you do take care of it, ironically many of the hair products in the market actually cause more damage than said. One of the more popular uses of black seed oil is for hair restoration and promoting overall hair health. Although it’s really not concrete as to why exactly black seeds help with hair growth, one can assume that it stems from its potent antioxidant properties. Those properties are also combined with healthy fatty acids such as omega 3,6, and 9, that have shown to improve hair follicle production and strength. Black seed oil has also proven to be useful as a natural remedy for premature gray hair.
