Questions???

If you have any questions regarding your hair, just ask us.

Jill

Jill came in to the salon today with something new in mind. Her last cut was an inverted Bob, long in the front and shorter in the back. She was interested in a longer look that had fullness on the top with the possibility of turning up on the ends. The cut that I gave Jill today can be worn smooth and very straight, slightly turned under on the bottom or turned up. She also will have the flexibilty of blowing it dry with only the dryer, no brush, to give it a very natural look. After we finished Jill's first reaction was "hmmmm, not sure maybe it should be shorter on the bottom". We decided she should live with it a few days and if she still feels it needs to be shorter she can come back in and we will shorten it a bit. Although the consensus of opinion in the salon was that she looks terrific the way it is!

Rebecca

Brian spent alot of time on this masterpiece hair cut. Rebecca looked pleased, as did Brian. We couldn't miss the enthusiasm on Brian's face for having created such a stunning cut. What a great way to end the week!

Ruth

This was Ruth's first visit to the little salon. She came on recommendation from one of my lovely clients, Aileen. It was wonderful, Ruth gave me carte blanche, I could do what ever I thought was appropriate for Ruth's color and cut. I decided on a color that was about a half shade darker and slightly more "brown" than the color she came in with. And for the cut..... it was a vast departure from what she was wearing. The back is slightly stacked and layered. There are areas that need to grow to achieve the look we ultimately want. After about 2 cuts, we should be where we want to be with the shape. Ruth has quite curly hair, and this cut will look great on her when she lets the curls be curls.

Olga

Nevin has given Olga a cut that is perfect for her face shape and over all look. This is a classic Bob that is reminiscent of the 20's. The geometric lines of this cut fall perfectly as Olga moves her head. A quick blow dry and touch up with the flatiron and Olga is on her way. A very easy cut to maintain. This was Olga's first visit with Nevin and from the way it looked when she left the salon, it won't be her last. We are happy to have her as a client to wear such a stunning cut as walking advertisement for the little salon.

Calli

Calli is a new Mom. Today was a day to concentrate on Calli. She hasn't had her hair cut or colored professionally in a very long time, so today was the day for a new color and cut. Kristin colored Calli's hair with a chestnut Tocco Magico color, which gave Calli's hair a whole new life! Nevin cut Calli's hair from past her shoulders to this great looking style. Her hair is naturally curly. After the blow dry, Nevin used the flatiron to smooth the hair before finishing the cut. Calli prefers to where her hair straight, although this cut will look just as good curly as it does straight. She plans on coming in to the salon next week to have her hair permanently straightened. The straightener will help Calli to dry her hair in a sleek smooth look and keep it that way between shampoo's.

Kathryn

Kathryn looks soooooooooooooo good with her new updated cut. She had been wearing her hair in a one length to the shoulder style for a long time. This is the second cut on her new style. We gave the hair a more contemporary look by taking out bulk to eliminate a round look. She has some wave in her hair that she can take advantage of on those humid days (which is most of the time in Florida). Kathryn is very busy with her position as a speech therapist in the Sarasota School system, taking classes for her own pleasure, enjoying photography and did I hear her say something about exercising too!

Removing Extensions

Extensions can be a wonderful thing when they make a head of hair look twice as full, but when it comes to removing them it can be an arduous task. It took both Brian and John to complete this removal. The extension where put in and removed by another salon in Sarasota, but unfortunately the glue was left in the hair. Brian was scheduled to cut the clients hair, but could not do the cut until all of the glue was removed. After getting all of the glue out, Brian did the cut and used a gloss to brighten the hair. This will be a work in progress, the color is scheduled for next week. To be continued.........

Brian, Ezeqiel and Katherine

Katherine and Ezeqiel are here from Italy. They were referred to the salon by some of there Italian friends who live in Sarasota and are clients of the little salon. Ezeqiel's hair was about collar length and very curly. They discussed a new look, through translation by Katherine, and agreed that Brian could do what he thought best. The shorter hair looks great and I think he was very pleased. When Brian finished, Ezeqiel held out his hand with a huge smile on his face and gave Brian a very warm and hearty handshake. I only wish that I would have had the camera out at that moment.

Sue

Some looks are timeless. This is a classic Butterfly, or "Dorothy Hamill. Sue has been coming to the salon for a few years. Today I gave her a new style, this is the shortest that her has been since she has been coming to the salon. The shorter hair is very becoming on Sue and will be much easier to take care of. She has some curl in her hair, so we use a large round brush to blow dry and finish it with the flatiron. We use Osis Slick to keep the hair straight and to protect it from the iron.
