Frizz-Free Friday - #3 The journey continues for whirly heads

Headlights for Highlights <> SUNKISSED Ribbons

Face-Framing -

Sunkissed Highlights are called (Hana-Ribbons)or"Ribbons"
(Hana) Ribbons is the name for 12 - 15 foils just around the face - in those foils are 2-3 colors - usually blonds. This photo is an exact model of Hana RIBBONS...see the difference between her color and a headful of blonde highlights.
(Hana) Ribbons take hair from one color to SUNKISSED in 2 hours. Stylists are not fond of a technique like this (guess why?)...
retouches only need to be done maybe 6 times a year!
Listen, its your hair....REQUEST it, take a copy of this pic in with you, ask for an exact duplicate (nicely).


Men consider this the sexiest color technique a woman can sport.

I receive many requests for "how-to" get hair sunkissed, without going the whole banana and having overkill highlights...
One of my least favorite hair color mistakes (I see everywhere in Southern California) is what I call : BLONDOREXIA
or OVERKILL Highlights
Highlights on top of highlights on top of highlights..............YUK!




See the 3 ribbons
right up at the front...this is done with a few foils...and some bleach...
and it is NOT harmful provided it is done safely.

it is one of the easiest - "simplest" techniques accomplished in the world of Hair Colour, my wonderful Instructor Lucie Doughty (of Paul Mitchell fame)refers to the technique as "Ribbons" or ribbons of color, I've always kept that to my private practice but its time to share now.

This is one of my personal favorite techniques and am going to give a shot to teaching a "HOW-TO" online on our sister Blog: www.killerstrands.blogspot.com -- to those of you with style and no one in your town to apply it for you - its actually pretty simple...
After much thought and contemplation I have finally made the commitment
Hop over to www.killerstrands.blogspot.com with the series starting on, "Coloring Your Hair at Home - Professionally" OR >>> Bomb all Boxed Hair Color Kits, buy the products separately and yelling:"" run for your Life !""













See here is an example of the Ribbons...right up at the front...this way you can apply a few ribbons to brown hair your yourself and get that SUNKISSED Look I get so many requests for.





. . there is controversy after I asked a couple of older Stylists as to who-what-where and when . . . as soon as I get the stories confirmed / denied / etc.. I will Update

~ NO Lemon Juice.... ~ NO Sun In.....
figure 12-83 of those methods are destructive,don't work and ruin your hair
and the
~ "SUN" itself doesn't work unless you have very light brown hair, are a lifeguard 10-12 hours > 6 days per week.

if you want just a few "lights" around the front of your face . . . .as if the sun did it...
this is your chance....figure 12-85
This will look wonderful on anyone with LEVEL ( you are going to have to learn LEVELS: : : : its easy Level 1 is Black and Level 12 is White Blond...Level 6 in the middle is called : Light Brown, and so on )

Change Your Look For Under $2 Bucks - results

ingenuity can go a long way

.

.....
try this when debating on cutting your hair or not, get the sensation of how shorter hair feels and the reactions you get, if that is important to you

Shine Of The Times

Never before have you seen such an eclectic mix of hairstyles.

It seems anything goes and I for one ... like it that way. . . how about you?

To achieve the looks keep your cool...ditch the hairdryers, towel-dry the hair ( unless you are a member of the Frizz-Free Fridays set) and nobody forget the weekly SLEEP-OVER deep conditioning treatments. If you haven't found one, can't afford one, or are all out.....use the vege oil method (olive oil or Sesame oil is even better) or use the rest of your daily conditioner for the Slumber method....that is even better than nothing.

Study a new style ...set out to change yours - - - - to it....

A change in hair-style or hair - colour can be totally life changing.

FRIZZ-FREE FRIDAY Promises Curls...loads & loads of twirls

What do you think? don't you think?

suits us?is about exactly what this is

Black Magic Hair ...the Asian Persuasion

There is no better hair on the planet for the precision hair cutter than the Asians bouncy do's.

The reason?
It's very difficult to cut, each strand is equivalent to 5 of my own, thick... crisp...and requires the sharpest your scissors will ever be in order to sail thru the cut without a mistake.

Once you master the difficulties, the rewards are worth it.

No hair lays better and shows the "art of the cut" more defined than the shiny beautuiful hair of the Asian persuasion.

Altho not Asian..........

cool none the less
