Men's Haircut: Casual Hold

This look has holiday vibes and feels like a lazy Sunday afternoon (with a beer in hand).  If you're looking for a dry look then this will work for you. Apply the Edgy Shockrock Gum ($18.95) on dry hair and rub it back. Tousle with your fingertips to reshape and let it dry naturally for a more casual, dryer look. Try brushing the hair once dry for a less wet finish.

How To Get Surf Hair 0

Get Braiding

Firstly take a shower and wet your hair the night before, using cooler water gives better results as this reduces the amount of frizz. Towel dry your hair and evenly divide it into two sections. Braid each section and sleep with the braids in place. In the morning take the braids out to reveal your stylish new surf hair.

Salon Hair Supplies Are Better For Your Hair 0

Why is salon quality haircare better for your hair than super market brands, and why the difference in prices?

Hairdressers, wholesalers, & hair care manufactures get asked this question each and every day by their clients and consumers showing us that there is still plenty of confusion around this topic.

Over the last 30 years, many experts have spent plenty of time researching and writing about the salon home hair care supplies versus grocery store brands with similar outcome and results.

That purchasing salon quality hair supplies is better for your hair and scalp than cheaper non salon alternatives.

So why is this the case you may well ask?

The differences between salon and non salon haircare supplies:

Professional haircare companies are the creators of salon quality hair supplies, and spend plenty of time and money perfecting their shampoos, treatments, styling products, electrical equipment, brushes and anything else that the consumer takes home from a salon. It's in their interest to make sure that their products are the very best available for a number of reasons. Here are some of these reasons why professional salon supplies stack up best.

• To protect the integrity of their clients hair & scalp: A good example here is electrical haircare manufactures such as Parlux, or Silver Bulett that are always aware of the need for thermal repair from heat styling, investing in temperature regulators, ceramic blades, and other new technologies to protect the hair and scalp. This model is critical for their products success and very survival. Another example is where haircare companies such as Edgy Haircare create water soluble styling products that leave no build up on the hair shaft to leave hair dull, flat, or to interfere with hair colour use.

• To protect the integrity of their other products within their brand: Most professional hair care companies also supply hair & beauty salons with products such as hair colour, bleach, and other chemically altering services and therefore make a significant investment in the product development that protects hair against UV light, and colour fade preservation.

• To offer their consumers more value for money: Salon quality brands such as the NFuzion range of haircare have very concentrated formulas and consistencies, so although they cost more upfront, they are more cost effective. Another example where paying more upfront equals more value and better haircare is when purchasing professional hair brushes such as Denman Jack Dean with natural bristles. The brush will last much longer than cheaper brushes, but will also be better as it will not fray or tear the hair and scalp.

• To have superior products than any of their competitors: This makes product companies work even harder, to get your business and then to keep it. Some of the ways they do this includes coming up with new formulations, that have no harmful chemicals and ingredients such as parabens, and sulphates, or by even becoming organic.  

You get what you pay for:

From my own experience as a hair stylist touching and looking at hair all day long, the difference was remarkable when my clients switched to salon quality brands against supermarket brands. Their hair looked radiant, colours faded less, scalp conditions went away, and far less damage was seen on their hair when they used professional electrical appliances such as blow dryers, and ceramic straighteners.

It takes more investment to develop superior products to a niche market place, and hence why salon quality products are more expensive to purchase.

The reality is that you ultimately do get what you pay for. Quality and high performance products come at a price, but here's the funny thing, that in the log term you end up saving money anyway. 

And last of all, and more IMPORTANTLY that your hair, scalp, hair colour, and hairstyle will look and feel much better.

Salon Solutions stocks salon quality hair care including shampoos, conditioners, treatments, styling products, hair appliances, electrical equipment, accessories, and even pet grooming care, from many major professional brands, and all at affordable prices.

Winter Ways to Style a Short Fringe 0

Change up your look this winter by working an edgy, short fringe. We all know the pixie cut is Hollywood's latest cult 'do, favoured in recent months by Jennifer Lawrence, Michelle Williams and Emma Watson amongst many. This timeless asymmetrical crop is made for the girl who wants to get noticed, however, if your fringe isn't styled correctly it can look a little harsh.

Take the cue from our styling options below to get noticed this winter.....

1. The Wet Look

The wet-look trend isn't just for long hair. For a runway-ready finish, style your tresses into a side-swept wet look fringe. Start by creating a side part then use a comb to distribute a small amount of gel through the roots of your straightened hair. Gently comb your locks back into place, except for the front section- this should be combed forward and over one eye.

2. High on Volume

This style is super cute, and can dramatically alter your entire look. Use a volumising matt clay after washing, and blow dry using a barrel brush, paying particular attention to the hair at the front, to master this heavy fringe.

3. Softly Tousled

This romantic, tousled style is the perfect combination of edgy and feminine. Add a small amount of mattifying product (putty or wax) to your palms and then run your hands through your hair, pulling it forward and across your forehead.

4. Long & Side-Swept

A sleek, side-swept fringe can give your hair the drama it needs. To begin, use a serum or oil, such as NFuzion Zero Frizz Serum, before blow-drying for added shine. Once dry, use a flat iron to smooth your hair over and down across your face. Finish with a mist of hairspray for added shine and hold.

So there you have it, four versatile ways to take hold of this killer hair trend. Which look will you try first?
