Fall preview 2013

When I think of fall, thoughts of leaves changing, chilly weather, comfy sweaters, and pumpkin spice come to mind. Also, this is a time many clients thing about making a change to their hair. If they went ombré for the summer, they are ready for richer, warmer tones. Those who went darker, are looking for more dimension with different tones like toffee, caramel, or even mocha. They may sound like favors to you, but in the mind of a hairstylist all I see are swirls of rich tones and inspiration.

As I browse my Pinterest board for inspiration I found so many beautiful inspiring images I want to share with you! These are some of my personal favorites. 

In this photo, I love the two tone look of her rich chocolate brown.

 

What looks cuter with a blazer or sweater than a sophisticated up do? I am loving her smokey eye in this photo as well. Perfect for a date night or any special occasion. 

Bangs are making a full comeback! I'm not just saying that because I recently cut some bangs on my shoulder length hair. They are a fun way to update any length of hair.

Sock bun, ballerina bun, donut, call it what you like but this look screams sophistication. It's a classic that will never fade away. With so many forms and tools to make it easier to create yourself at home, this look is a must for the fall. 

Welcome to a (belated) new year!

Hello friends! I know we are now in March and spring is right around the corner, but I have just realized I have not posted a new entry since October! Wow. Unacceptable!
New Years Resolution for 2012: Post more entries!

With a new year, came some changes! I recently moved to a new place that I love which is in south Fort Myers bringing me a little farther away from work. The "snowbirds" are in full force here in Cape Coral, Florida. The traffic has been crazy lately. If it wasn't for how much they stimulated our economy I would be very annoyed!

Another change for the new year is my hair! I no longer have long flowing locks. I now have sassy short hair! I must say it was a big change but I am absolutly loving it!

also, we added a new member to our family....

Her name is Winnie, and she is a Teddy bear puppy. Yes, teddy bear is really her breed! It's a mix between a Shit-zu and a Bichon.

Now that I have you up to speed, lets talk about hair trends for the Spring!

This season is all about adding new twists to old styles! The retro style waves are all the rage on the red carpet, were seeing more celebrities go for the short Audrey Hepburn pixie cut, the 80's asymmetrical cuts are making a comeback, and braids have been everywhere from the runway to your local schools.

I love how now-a-days anything goes as far as hair and makeup is concerned.

Now that the warmer season is approaching, I am having more requests for highlights and lighter tones. Ombre hair is still a phenomenon because of its low maintenance and high fashion look. Blondes are wearing more platinum, icy blonde tones, redheads are going for more of a vibrant look and brunets are rocking the sun kissed honey highlights.

Since I haven't posted in a while, here is some fun photos of my lovely clients!
