5 Things You Are Probably Doing Wrong With Your Hair

1. Using the wrong shampoo and conditioner.

The difference between salon brands and drugstore brands is that professional products have to be approved before they can advertise any benefit described on the bottle. Drugstore brands only need to have 1% of the ingredient to provides that benefit! So brands like Pantene ProV, Head & Shoulders, etc. load their products up with cheap ingredients and put them on the shelves for you to buy! (Pretty much, you get what you pay for.) So if you want quality care for your hair at home- you'll have to pay for it. But isn't it worth the investment? For more advise on which brand will work best for you, just ask your professional.

2. Using a flat iron and NOT using any thermal protectant.

The number one source of damage does not come from a chemical service. It comes from your flat irons, blow dryers, and curling irons! Using a thermal protectant such as a Leave In Conditioner will protect your hair from the heat! The melting temperature of hair is around 450 degrees. Using a protectant can save your hair from the damaging heat and keep your locks shiny and touchable!

3. Going to bed with your hair wet.

Ever suffer from itchy, flaky scalp? Symptoms much like dandruff often come from the mold growing on your scalp! No one would want to keep wet socks on their feet, so why would you do that to your scalp? If you are going to bed with damp hair- or even throwing it up in a pony tail, power dry your scalp! You'll notice a healthier scalp immediately and no more embarrassing flakes.

4. Too many ponytails.

Wearing your hair in a pony tail every day causes major breakage on your hair in the nape area (right above your neck). To avoid breakage, try wearing low pony tails with a fabric coated elastic band or pull your hair back in varying styles. This prevents constant strain on your hair and keeps your hair looking thicker and longer.

5. Constantly parting your hair on one side.

Having the same part your whole life causes strain on your hair. If you notice your part is starting to look like its thinning, switch your part! This helps keep your hairline looking nice and full.

DON’T LET YOUR COMMITMENT ISSUES IN THE BEDROOM PREVENT YOU FROM CREATING A LASTING RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR STYLIST.

Jumping from stylist to stylist? The only thing your hurting is your hair. Create history between you and your stylist and you can guarantee yourself healthier, more touchable hair. Can you cut your hair at home? Yes. Can you color your hair with product you picked up at your local drugstore? Absolutely. But it is my personal goal to make sure that each service you receive will leave you feeling more confident about your hair by actually addressing issues rather than masking them.

You cant put a price on the benefits you’ll receive from professional services. First, by creating client history, I’ll know exactly what has been done to you hair and when. So creating the next look of the moment will be a breeze because I’ll know what previous pigment or chemical still resides in your hair strand! By continually taking classes and advanced education on the latest color and cutting techniques, I can help you achieve any goals you have with your hair and inform you on how to maintain your hair at home and between visits!

Having gorgeous hair is an investment, and I want to make sure that you are constantly informed of new information and continually check in on you to make sure that your concerns have been addressed. I offer monthly promotions and offers so that saving money is always an option and can suggest services to cater to your budget.

Really, there’s no reason that you shouldn’t commit to me! Call/Text/Email today and lets get started on a lifelong friendship. Here’s to great hair!

ATTENTION: SAINTS & SINNERS

Hello!

I wanted to take a moment of your time to let you know that unfortunately I am no longer working at Urban Roots Salon. There were some changes being made in efforts to survive this economy, but unfortunately those changes no longer had room for me. I really enjoyed my 2 1/2 years at Urban Roots- I learned so much, made so many amazing friends, and created memories that will last a lifetime. That place was like my second home, and I will miss it.

But I am also very excited to tell you that I am now working at Saints & Sinners Salon! It's an up and coming salon in Downey, and I am looking forward to being apart of its development! There is a lot of space, beautiful decor, coffee and refreshments available, current magazines, televisions, and a separate lounge for those who prefer a more quiet waiting/processing time. Its going to be an amazing experience, and I cant wait to share this with you!

I start at Saints & Sinners on Monday! My schedule is exactly the same- I am available Tuesday-Saturday 11am-8pm, and Sundays and Mondays 12pm-8pm. Of course, if you need an earlier or later appointment time just let me know! :) To schedule, you can call or text my cell at 562-774-5022 or you can email me at mandidoesmyhair@hotmail.com. You can also call the salon to set up an appointment at 562-923-4626. You should be receiving a special invitation to the salon via post mail within the next few weeks, so please be on the lookout for that!

Again, I want to thank you so much for being apart of my time at Urban Roots Salon, and I really hope that I see you again at Saints & Sinners!

Your stylist and friend,

Rosey and Chemo on Shear Genius

Hey you guys!

So today Rosey and Chemo went to the second call back for Shear Genius, and made it to round 3! Next they have to do a 5-10 minute film of a day in the life of them. It's due by the end of the week, and I think after this they sign their confidentiality agreement and will have background checks done. Filming starts in May! So it's happening really fast! I am so excited for the both of them, and really hope they make it on! I will keep you updated on any other advancements.

Thanks!

DAVINES EDUCATION

Hey you guys!

Yesterday, I attended another Davines education course at Goldbear Academy in Silverlake.

The first half of the class was a presentation on our new line Glorifying. Here is a little blurb about the line:

"Colour has by far always been a cornerstone of beauty, an element able to give the look and charm to a woman like nothing else can. For this reason it is fundamental that the results obtained in the salon can be chosen and the correct colour application enhanced and maintained over time. In response to this need Davines dedicates Glorifying Hair Care System, the new product range that highlights the characteristics of any type of coloured, bleached or highlighted hair. The efficacy of the range is based on the synergic action of its active ingredients (polyphenols and carotenoids) enriched with ingredients of natural origin, resulting not only in enhancing shine but also prolonging the colour’s vitality thanks to the deep anti-age action."

Let me introduce you to the products.



This creamy shampoo was created for colored, bleached, and highlighted hair to reduce colour loss, protect hair from UV damage, and increase luminosity. The shampoo's creaminess makes it particularly hydrating and softening. Its formulated with Polyphenols from Sunflower Extract for their anti-free radical and anti-oxidant properties. It has a delicate surfactant derived from Oat Amino Acids that cares for the scalp while Wheat Proteins provide protective film-forming properties.

Of course, I always recommend using a little shampoo, lathering, and adding water if necessary. And for a more "clean" feeling, repeat. I do not recommend using this as a daily shampoo. Our Essentials line works on a molecular level, so your going to have more healing properties from either the MoMo, NouNou shampoo- however, if you alternate shampoo's with the Glorifying Shampoo- you are going to have increased benefits and shine!



This is a treatment mask, particularly for sensitized coloured, bleached, and highlighted hair. It has a strong anti-aging action that prevents hair aging, and thanks to a low pH, allows a perfect closure of the hair shaft to help lock in cosmetic colour. It has a UV protection, and the Omega 6 Fatty Acids are fundamental to hairs health and beauty.

This is my new favorite mask. It can be used on fine to coarse hair- and wont weigh it down. Its healing properties would make it the only conditioner/mask you would need. This will last you a very long time, as you only need a small amount of product (as with every Davines product) but the longer you are able to leave it on, the more treatment properties you will receive.



The Colour Protective Treatment is a Leave-In Conditioner for all hair types. This is a great product to spray in after you towel dry your hair to add enhanced UV protection and shine. Can be used daily. I defiantly recommend this product during the summer time before you head out to the pool or beach! And right after you get out of the water.



THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST PRODUCT I HAVE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME! MY NEW FAVORITE. This is called the Shimmering/Silkening Serum. It is a shine enhancing serum that actually brings out the color of faded/dull hair. Not only does it have incredible shine, it actually contains Omega 6 Fatty acids that are beneficial to the health of your hair! It also has UV protection! I couldn't have asked for a better shine drop! Whats even more exciting about it, is that one container will last you about a year!

There are 3 more products in the Glorifying Line that are for professional use only, to be used during colour applications. I wont go into too much detail about these products, but what I can tell you is that I can guarantee that your colour will last longer with these added service treatments!

The second portion of the class was all about styling and the different products that we use from the For Wizards and Defining Line. I asked TONS of questions about the products that I have been using and different products that I can use. And to be honest, I have been cocktailing too many products- which isn't necessarily a bad thing- but its really not necessary! I always say, "less is best", and I need to remember that when styling as well! Each product has extreme amounts of healing and protective properties, so I really dont need to layer them all into the hair strand. I am really excited to get behind the chair tomorrow and start trying out new ways of using each product and seeing what kind of results I see! Hopefully, you will notice the difference as well!

Tons of stuff going on at the salon! Rosey and Chemo went to the open casting call for Shear Genius on Bravo TV. They made it to round 2! Their second interviews are on Wednesday, so the salon is really rooting for them! If they make it on, its going to be an experience of a lifetime for them! I am sooooo excited! I will keep you posted on how they are doing!

Also, We are working with First Class Productions. Once or twice a month they throw huge events at different nightclubs around the LA area! They provide party bus transportation, drinks on the bus, VIP entrance to the clubs, etc. They are always so much fun, and very pocket friendly! Ticket prices range from $20-40 dollars. They currently take their buses out of Ralphs on Lakewood, but we they are now going to be coming out of the salon parking lot! We are EXTREMELY excited to be working with them, and even get some cheaper tickets available for you guys! :D

I am also working with the Myositis Association again to do our Summer Charity Event! We worked really hard last year to put this thing together, and unfortunately the city was giving us a hard time. BUT, next this summer we are having it for sure! June 27Th is the date! So please mark it on your calendar! More info will be announced as planning continues!

Thanks so much! And I look forward to seeing you soon!

PS- Flyer's are being made as we speak for the "Get a Blow Out, Before you Go Out" event we have at our salon every night! Be on the look out for them!

Chic Little Devil Industry Luncheon

So yesterday was the Chic Little Devil Industry Luncheon. We had such an amazing time! The studio was at the Benidict building in Downtown on the 11th floor. An amazing view of Los Angeles! It was a girls dream- clothes, shoes, accessories from the top designers, EVERYWHERE! I met so many amazing people- designers, stylists, photographers, music video producers, etc. The whole space was amazing. I would LOVE to get booked there to do hair/makeup for a photoshoot! Also, I did make some connections with some of the stylists, and if any of you want to be styled for an event- let me know! It's pretty pocket friendly- running about $50/hour for a consultation (which only takes 1hr) and then the rental cost of the outfit!

Yesterday, we also got news that we were not selected to be on the hit television show, Tabatha's Salon Takeover. It's a huge dissapointment, but all we can do is be thankful for the experiance and look for something bigger and better! In the mean time, we still have our KCAL9 apperance on March 12 at 6:30am! Make sure to check us out!

Also, I wanted to remind you all that I do Eyelash perming now! The procedure is painless and takes less than 30 minutes! I am so excited to be able to offer it for such a low cost! If you ever have any questions about the procedure, dont hesitate to call us! Hopefully I can get some before and after photos up soon!

Anyways, thats all the updates for now!

Hopefully I'll see you in the salon sooN!

"Get a Blow-Out, Before you Go Out!"



I've been talking with a lot of you about how this year its all about styling- and recreating that classic tradition when women would visit their stylist on a weekly basis. Though I know its not possible for everyone to come in once a week, it could be the perfect scenario on special occasions such as a night out with the girls, a dinner date, a party, etc. SO, that's why I came up with "Get a Blow-Out, Before you Go Out!" Let me totally glam you up before your night on the town- and be pampered with cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, and our "pre-party mix" that will have you in the right mood for whatever occasion! It's a playful spin-off of the classic tradition for our generation!

From 5pm-9:30pm, ANY night of the week, receive these special rates starting at:

Wash/Blow-dry AND Style: $45! (Includes NouNou Pak Mask Treatment!)
Styling Only: $25!
Makeup: $20! (Includes Eyelashes!)

Special Add-On Rates:
Want Super Shiny Hair!? Blind the paparazzi by adding on our Super Shiny Hair Glaze to your Wash/Blow-Dry AND Style for only $15! (Price only valid as an add-on offer.)

*Not valid with any other offer. "Get a Blow-Out, Before you Go Out" rates are only valid between 5pm-9:30pm any night of the week. If appointment needs to be made out of the valid time frame, please see my traditional menu. Appointments can be scheduled same day, but must be made no later than 3pm.

Multideminsional Haircolor For Less!?

Right now, everyone is looking to save a little time and money. But that doesnt mean you have to give up on your hair! A lot of clients have asked me to take them "back-to-natural" so they dont have to come in as often to get their color services done. Though, there is nothing like a shiny single process haircolor, you dont have to give up on deminsion! There are many different ways to highlight/lowlight without bringing out the foils- which cost $$$! Whats even more great about this is you wont have to worry about highlight retouches! Of course you will have regrowth- but at least you're still saving money!

Next time we are together, and your thinking of covering up those highlights- ask me what we can do to try and save them while still saving you money!

Here are just a few examples and ideas! All of these looks can be achieved without the weaving!

Hey you guys! I am so excited about this whole Tabatha's Salon Takeover experience! It's such an honor and a privilege to be considered, and is so much fun! Today two girls who work for the show came over with a camera and set up a small "confessional" room in our bathroom!

It was even more fun because we all had our "TV persona" that we picked out and got to play off that! I am "the ditzy blond, who flirts and shows a lot of skin"... which isnt soo far off! It was just tons of fun, and I really hope that we get picked! We are definatly made for TV! We wont know if we are chosen or not for a few weeks, but if we are I wont be able to tell you guys! So PLEASE watch Season 2 of Tabatha's Salon Takeover on Bravo and who knows... you might see URS!

Hey you guys! I am so excited about this whole Tabatha's Salon Takeover experience! It's such an honor and a privilege to be considered, and is so much fun! Today two girls who work for the show came over with a camera and set up a small "confessional" room in our bathroom! Each one of us went in for our "interview" where we pretty much talked about ourselves and gave up juicy details about the shop and eachother... lol. It was even more fun because we all had our "TV persona" that we picked out and got to play off that! I am "the ditzy blond, who flirts and shows a lot of skin"... which isnt soo far off! It was just tons of fun, and I really hope that we get picked! We are definatly made for TV! We wont know if we are chosen or not for a few weeks, but if we are I wont be able to tell you guys! So PLEASE watch Season 2 of Tabatha's Salon Takeover on Bravo and who knows... you might see URS!

my first blog

Hi Everyone!

This is my first blog! I wanted to create a professional but fun way to tell you all whats going on with me in the hair industry- without having to create a whole website! I've never been more excited to be a hairdresser! There are tons of educational opportunities, events, photo-shoots, television appearances, etc. in the works and I want you all to be in the know and possibly get involved! Here I will be posting my current events and promotions, updating you on current trends and techniques, educating you on how to do your hair on your own, letting you know of classes I've attended or will be attending, etc. Its just a great way of keeping in touch!

So thank you for stopping by! And please, don't be a stranger!
