That beachy blonde feeling 😎

Don’t forget to keep your hair hydrated this summer with a salon quality leave-in conditioner. It acts as the sunscreen that your hair needs to withstand the sun and sand.

Our best recommendation? Bumble and Bumble’s Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Primer—because it has UVA and UVB protection. Making it ACTUAL sunscreen for your hair.

Natural, soft dimension. It’s rising in popularity right now and we’re here for it.

Usually characterized by a root smudge or shadow and warmer tones, it enhances the natural color instead of competing with it. Color by

Who loves a s**g?! ✋🏻

When you’re not into the full stripped out s**g look but you love the silhouette, it’s easy to pop the framing around the face and add some s**ggy layers to match.

Often, blondes tell us that they don’t want to add lowlights and they want a full head of highlights every time. It makes sense when you’re trying to be as blonde as possible, BUT have you considered…..

Leaving some bits of your natural color makes your blonde look blonder. The contrast really takes it to the next level and in a lot of cases makes your blonde look brighter than before.

Here’s our predictions for the hair industry in the coming year ✨

Client communication and experience are coming to the forefront in our industry. The old days of overbooking and crazy loud salons seem to be staying firmly in the past and we love it! More intimacy and more time with clients creates greater understanding and a better client/stylist relationship.

Big blowouts, 90s inspired cuts and hair and scalp care are really having a moment and we’re here. for. it. Bye bye overly processed hair and breakage 👋🏻

We’re hoping to have more fun with our content this year and show you all more of who we are as stylists and individuals, as well as the work you’ve always known us for. 🤍

Ever get confused when you start talking to your stylist about blonde tones? It can be hard for clients to differentiate tones from one another—and who can blame you? You haven’t been trained in hair color theory! It’s frustrating!

You know who HAS been trained in hair color theory and has YEARS of experience? Our stylists. 😉

We love to help our clients navigate what blonde tone they’re looking for, and above is a cheat sheet of some tones clients love, put together from pictures of color done by our talented colorists themselves. 🤍

“Brunette highlights”—— that seems to be a scary phrase for people sometimes.

Personally, we think it could have something to do with the traumatic chunky highlights of the early aughts. 🥴 Anywayyyyy, adding dimension to your brunette shouldn’t be intimidating! With the right colorist in your corner, it’s a breeze.

These are just two examples of brunette dimension. On the left, more tone on tone subtle dimension. On the right, ribbon highlighting to create a more pronounced look.

We’re booking consultations with our talented colorists all the time, so give us a call to schedule yours 🤎

Raise your hand if you love chocolate ✋🏻

Just because you’re brunette doesn’t mean your brown has to be one dimensional. Just take a look at this color by .

Ask your stylist for a tone on tone highlighted brunette to add some dimensional chocolate to your brown 🤍

Here’s some tips to get some lived-in volume in your s**g inspired haircut:

1️⃣ go further between washes if your hair allows for this

2️⃣ use an air-dry styling cream to enhance natural texture while drying

3️⃣ use a curling wand or flat iron to enhance waves

4️⃣ dry shampoo or texturizing sprays go a LONG WAY
