Fall Fashion Inspires Hairstyles

On July 19, 2010, Robert Andrew stylists were inspired by Sam Villa from Redken 5^th Avenue NYC. He shared creative cutting and finishing techniques inspired from the runway looks from fall Fashion Week 2010 .

The fall fashion combined multiple textures and fabrics to create  looks that are versatile, exciting, and full of movement. “The layering of different individual pieces are a staple of the looks for fall 2010. This approach to fashion, allows us to adapt our use of our tools to create hair styles that enhance the natural texture and beauty of our guests’ hair,” states Sam.

The cutting techniques use “The Art of Disconnection” to add movement, volume, and a “frothy “ texture to any hair type. The texture was then enhanced and supported with professional styling products. Velvet Gelatine 07gives the hair a very plush, velvet like feel to add support and control. To add a great new “beachy wave” look and texture, the shapes were finished with Wool Shake 08; it brings out a wave and curl in the hair that have never been achievable before.

 Versatility was the key in finishing longer hair. Braids were everywhere on the runways and continue to be a great way to add versatility and a fresh way to pull longer hair off the face. The Knotted Rope technique can be used to secure hair off the face, or to give the illusion of a headband in the hair.

Artistic Director Brian Washburn stated, “Our entire staff was so excited after spending the day with Sam. He inspired our staff with modern techniques that will not only give our guests a great new Fall look, but can also be adapted to anyone’s hair texture!”

Sam is a National Artist with Redken 5^th Avenue NYC as well as a pioneer in the development of new tools for professional stylists to create current looks. He was voted Favorite Platform Artist by Behind the Chair.com; a profession stylists website community.

Continuance of the Daily Chronicles by Yvette Shirey

Day 23 – Wow!  Staying on a regimen is not easy in my busy life!  A couple of trips, forgot parts of the program, missed a couple of nights,  oh well, I will keep trying. 

A few good notes to share…  While I do not have new hair growth yet, I can say that my hair is not falling out as fast.  I used to run my hands through my wet hair and get a handful.  Now it is just a few strands. That’s good news. 

The other note: My daughter is 11 and has very sensitive skin.  She is allergic to metals so when she wears bobby pins or metal clips, she gets a very flaky scalp and it is hard to repair.  I had her try the Nioxin and within 2 days the itchy, flaky scalp cleared up.  Two great points that make this worth the try.

This week I am going to start the vitamins and see if that helps speed the growth up more.

Day 28 – Just met with my representative for Nioxin and wanted to share what I learned.  She explained that I should not expect more strands of hair but rather the hair I have will start to be thicker and stronger.   For those who color their hair, they can also expect their color to be better and last longer.   If I get new hair growth from the open follicle due to the product, that’s an added bonus but if my follicle is not producing hair, this product cannot help.

So…  still good that my hair is falling out less which shows the product is working because it is stronger.   Also will be good if each strand I have is thicker so it will give the illusion of fuller hair which is what the end goal is.  I will keep trying and keeping you posted.
