BACK FROM THE BIG EASY…

Kathleen and Erika and I have recently returned from New Orleans, where we attended the
“BEHIND THE CHAIR COLOR, CUT AND STYLE SHOW”.

 

World renowned artists and industry leaders and educators from all the top color lines were
there to present the latest techniques, tools and tips for what’s happening RIGHT NOW in the
world of Hair Color!

 

Pops of pastels and vibrant tones are still so current…it’s a great way to add a little “edge”
without too much change or commitment. Applied in “peek-a-boo” fashion, you can either
hide or expose the colored area based on your mood or your plans!!!

 
color
 

Super cool blondes, bordering on silver-gray, were popular with many of the teams we saw
on stage, reminiscent of the platinum shades of the 1940’s and 50’s…

Our beloved Davines represented at the show, with Head Honcho Pier Paolo Brandolini
introducing Style Ambassador Joseph DiMaggio to the stylists at the show. Although they
didn’t present on stage, we observed some great styling at the Davines Studio in the
Connection Center, where all the teams had areas to showcase their own styles, tools,
products and trends. OF COURSE we did lots of “connecting” and lots of shopping!! AND, we
got to see Joseph’s work up close when we returned and took a boat ride on the Hudson
River, sponsored by Davines!

L’Oreal Professional showcased their signature “BALAYAGE”, a precise hair painting
technique to create soft or bold natural highlights. This was very exciting for us to see on
stage, as Kathleen and Madison are attending a Balayage certification class in New York City
this November!

 
panel
 

One of the most exciting segments was the CELEBRITY COLORIST Panel Discussion…stylists
and colorists to the stars shared their experiences and answered questions about their
famous clientele. Sitting on the panel was Jennifer Aniston’s colorist Justin Anderson, the
talented and entertaining Guy Tang, Longtime colorist to the stars and E! Correspondent Mr.
Kim Vo and the woman responsible for the hair color of Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian,
Tracy Cunningham! Seems celeb clients are a lot like regular clients, and their colorists hear
the same requests and face the challenges as we do every day in the salon!

 

There was so much to see and learn and we are inspired and motivated every day to try
some of the new tools and techniques we learned at the show!!! Education is essential…it
keeps us looking and moving forward toward THE NEXT BIG THING…and we can’t wait to
share it all with you!

 

See you at your next appointment…are you ready for SOMETHING NEW???

 

More cool looks…

AN ELLE MAGAZINE TOP 100 SALON FIVE YEARS IN A ROW

Each year, ELLE Magazine Surveys top salons across the country to see what trends are happening in their area. Then, they compile the results to select “The Best Hair In America”. Here are some of G SALON’S responses to the TRENDS Survey:

 

1. What are the top three most requested celebrity haircuts at your salon? Please be specific about the type of hairstyle (some starlets change their styles monthly!)

 

We have a lot of requests for a “softer” version Of Miley Cyrus’s short crop, we’ve also been seeing a lot of Shailene Woodley very recently! Giuliana Rancic’s mid-length edgy bob appeals to our professionals, as does Kelly Ripa’s cut- stylish and classic at the same time. As always, Kim and Khloe Kardashian are what we hear of and see for the long, layered looks.

 

ELLE’S WINNER: “The Mid-Wave”: Beyonce
Runners Up: Jennifer Lawrence, Alexa Chung, Zoe Kravitz, Kate Mara
ELLE’S WINNER: “The Short Cut: Shailene Woodley
Runners Up: Miley Cyrus, Lupita Nyong’o
ELLE’S WINNER: “The Long Lead”: Gisele Bundchen
Runners Up: Blake Lively, Jessica Alba

 

2. What are the most requested celebrity hair colors for blondes, brunettes, and redheads? Is there one celebrity’s color that seems to dominate requests?

 

Blondes- Blake Lively, Jennifer Lawrence, Shakira (multi-tonal), Khloe Kardashian
Brunettes- Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian (now that she’s brunette again!) Katy Perry (dark and rich with fun splashes of brights or, more recently, pastels!)
Reds- Emma Stone, Julianne Moore, Nicole Kidman, “Snooki” (vibrant cherry red)

 

Our clients have also been experimenting a bit with pastels, lavender like Kelly Osbourne and Nicole Richie, pink like Rihannas latest, blue like Katy Perry…not necessarily the whole head, but incorporating these shades into their color…FUN!!

 

ELLE’S WINNERS:

Platinum: Ellie Goulding Champagne: Michele Williams Golden: Jennifer Lawrence
Honey Red: Emma Stone
Strawberry Blonde: Jessica Chastain Red: Christina Hendricks
Warm Brunette: Lorde
Espresso: Mila Kunis
Deep Purple: Katy Perry
Lavender: Nicole Richie

 

3. During the consultations, what do your clients say they like about the cuts and color? What feedback have you received?

 

Clients always love the movement that they see in celebrity haircuts, and they look for lots of versatility in the styles they request. They love having different options when it comes to styling their hair, wearing it up to head to the gym or a sexy updo on a night out; switching the part to reveal peek-a-boo highlights or a flash of vibrant red or soft yellow! Clients are always looking to maximize the shine in their hair, so we’re doing a lot of glazes with our colors to maximize the shine and enhance the tones

 

4. What’s happening at salons is a big indicator of the style of a particular city — what do you think the most popular cuts say about your region? Why are they popular?

 

Many of our clients are working women or busy moms who want to stay on top of trends and look fashionable with a versatile style that can be professional by day and casual or sexy at other times. They are always open to trying something different, especially if their favorite celebrity has a new look! That versatility can be achieved without having to spend a lot of time styling their hair, and by using a variety of styling products and tools, which our clients love to buy and use at home! By doing so, they can always look great while they maintain their busy lifestyle. As the warmer weather approaches, we do a lot of easy-to care-for styles, whether it’s long so it’s easily put up, or going shorter for a more carefree style. After the long, cold winter we had here in Connecticut, many of our clients are opting for lighter and/or brighter colors…we’re sick of grey weather and dull hair!

 

5. What vintage or archival hairstyles do clients come in asking for — for instance, is it Bridget Bardot? 1940s pinup hair?

 

We are full swing into prom/formal/ wedding season, and we’re seeing a lot of contemporary finger-wave styles reminiscent of the 40’s looks, more structured “teased” looks of the 50’s, or soft, flowing waves a la Veronica Lake (think: Blake Lively) . Our clients love to look like they are headed for the red carpet (Hello, Ryan Seacrest!) !

 

We’re also loving the trend toward boho braids, a throwback to the 60’s hippy looks, but more styled or intentionally messy!

THE EYES HAVE IT…

The name of the game in eyebrows is bold and beautiful. Please, step away from the tweezers and set your eyebrows free! Let the experts at G SALON help shape your brows, making them the big focus – strong and elaborate, making pencil thin eyebrows a thing of the past (thank you, beauty gods!)! G SALON also does brow tinting, with a vegetable dye to make those brows darker, thicker, sexier. Fill in with beingTRUE Brow Definer for a perfect brow…Brow Definer comes in three shades: Blonde, Auburn and Brunette…each contains a cream color and two powders which combine for a perfectly matched shade Apply with our Brow Definer brush for a gorgeous, full, beautifully-defined brow!

Speaking of wide eyes – winged eyeliner is also a MUST. You cannot leave the house without extending your eyes and having a cat tail flick at the end. Subtle by day, dramatic by night…we love our beingTRUE Obsidian eye definer, applied with a wet Liner Diffuser brush to create the perfect exaggerated line.

 

eyeliner

 

This season is also about lashes, lashes, LASHES!!! Start with a lash tint at G SALON…making lashes appear fuller, thicker and longer…then add false lashes or lots of beingTrue Hy-Performance mascara in Obsidian to create high definition lashes …let the makeup specialists at G SALON show you how!

 

If false eyelashes and black winged eyeliner are not for you, you may be happy to hear the alternative is white eyeliner. Yes, white on top and bottom. Our favorite is beingTRUE Phalaenopsis, a true white, applied with a wet Liner Diffuser brush for more drama, or a dry brush for a softer, more subtle effect…We LOVE this look…how 60’s of us!!!

 

eyeshadow

 

And for those who want to jazz up their eyes even more, the shadow colors to be seen in are
technicolor…blue (Lapis), purple (Wisteria), coral (Carnelian), green (Peridot), silver (Galena) 2014
and gold (Coralline) and don’t forget the GLITTER!

 

Schedule a session with one of the artists at G SALON and get your brows, lashes and eyes in focus!
