Sunday Morning

It's Sunday morning and the temperature outside is 34 degrees. That's pretty cold for Floridians. Inside the little salon it's warm and cozy. A wonderful baroque choral is playing while the clients sip lattes and cappuccinos, another of our specialties at the little salon. Kristin chats with Dr. Day while Melvyn puts the finishing touches on Maria's hair cut. The little salon is open on Sunday every four weeks. Melvyn Ainger, Vidal prodigy, flies in from the north to cut and sometimes color, if Kristin is not available. If you have a busy week day schedule and find that Sunday would work well for your hair care needs, call us at 955.4691 and make an appointment with Melvyn. The Sunday atmosphere is serene and the cut and color that you get will most likely be the best you have ever had.

Shades of the little salon

The color that leaves the little salon is the best in the area. Kristin who does most of our color has a rich history with Toni and Guy as a colorist and color educator. Brian has become an excellent colorist in his own right. She can create a natural shade of honey blonde, warm rich brunette or if your have a more adventurous side, an electric blue or vibrant red. I have been suggesting Kristin to many of my clients for their color, it frees me for more cutting time and we work well together. We consult with new clients together on color placement for the type of cut that I will be doing.

This is a stunning shade of red, created by Kristin. I would have loved for you to see the entire head, but I promised the young woman that would not.

This is a perfect example of how you can "drastically" change you hair color, and very effectively! I think Muriel looks fabulous both as a blond and brunette. This is one of Brian's creations from color to cut. The brunette photo does not show how beautifully rich the brunette is. We claim to be expert cutters and colorists, but not photographers.

Blue is not for everyone and it is not easy to achieve. Kristin has done a superb job of creating a tone on tone blue here for our very creative Ringling Student. The cut was done by Brian. Kristin and Brian often collaborate on creations like this one.

This has been My little Salon for over 2 years. I love the Professionalism, also that they are current on the Latest Techinques, they all remain dedicated to doing above and beyond. I personally like change and they can give it to me. If you are one that likes to remain comfortable with what you have-- they really listen. If it is suggestions you are looking for they offer what is best suited for you. It has been a Warm and Friendly Service from day one and continues to remain that way today! I have been approached on numerous occassions, complimented on all regarding the color and style of my hair. I may change my hair style and color but I will not change My Little Salon!

Alessandra Ambrosio's Modern Shag

Even the gorgeous Victoria Secret Angels get that blah feeling about their hair every now and again. So when supermodelAlessandra Ambrosio was tired of her old look, she turned to hair stylist Louis Angelo, who works out of Garren in NYC, to shake things up. The result—a rock star shag with a killer fringe that’s perfect for Alessandra’s busy schedule as a Victoria’s Secret Angel and mother. This style requires minimal work and delivers maximum style.

This may have been created in a NY salon, but the little salon is the place in the Tampa Bay area to turn to for a great look like this.

Botticelli 1975

This is a cut that I did in 1975. It was a Sassoon classic called the Botticelli. The crown was actually cut so short that it looked like a cap. Go to our Facebook page and post a vintage style of yourself and you might win a free gloss.

A little repair work for Liz

Liz had an asymmetrical cut in mind, but before she came to the salon she thought she would give it a try on her own. It's an interesting way to show a stylist how you would like to have your hair cut. I don't think that was Liz's intent, but in an odd sort of way it worked. I could see exactly what she had in mind, it just needed the hand of a professional to refine it.

Congratulations to Brian!
