4 Cute Summer Hairstyles

May 13, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Summer is right around the corner, which means it’s time for a fresh new style! The heat can make it a pain to style your hair and sometimes it’s best to go for a low maintenance yet cute look. In this month’s blog, we’ll discuss 4 cute hairstyles that are great for the summer time.

Beach Waves

This is a classic and trendy hair style that makes you look effortlessly beautiful. Those tousled waves make your hair look more voluminous and textured and all you need is a curling iron. Complete your look with highlights or a balayage and your hair will look naturally toned with extra depth and dimension.

Sleek and Straight

If you have naturally straight hair, giving yourself a sleek hair style is easy and simple to do. It requires almost no maintenance and you only need to focus on slicking your roots towards the mid-length of your hair. After that, simply pull your hair into a low bun or ponytail and you’re done! It’s a simple yet cute hair style that can go well with any outfit. It also keeps your hair away from your face and neck, which is great for battling that summer heat.

Space Buns

Space buns, also known as double buns, are a charming look that’s easy to achieve. All you have to do is part your hair into twin ponytails, wrap your hair around it, and secure them with elastics. Having bangs or a fringe will also complement the space bun hairstyle. It’s also a great way to frame your face. For extra style points, you can also style your buns with braids, which can also give it a more formal flair. Whether you like neat or messy buns, it’s an adorable look that will make you look young and trendy.

Pixie Cut

Ladies, don’t be scared of short hair! A pixie cut can be both an elegant and chic look for any occasion. Not to mention, its shortness is great way to counter the summer heat without making your head feel heavy. While it can be considered a slightly bolder look on women, it can be very flattering for most face shapes. Pixie cuts are versatile, low maintenance, and are a definite classic that can be styled any way.

Natural Curls: 3 Ways to Moisturize Between Washes

April 30, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Having natural curls can be hard to maintain, especially when you are struggling with keeping your hair moisturized between washes. Showering can be miserable for you when your hair is too dry and tangled. You might plan only to wash your hair once every week, but the problem is your hair is suffering from lack of hydration. In this blog, we will discuss how you can keep it healthy and moisturized during the week.

Dry Hair

Our day-to-day life affects how much of sebum, the lubrication in the hair and skin, retains in our hair. There are some reasons, such as the weather, shampoo, daily hair care, heat from styling, chemical treatments, and curl type that can dry out your hair.  The list can go on, but it is important to figure out why your hair is drying out to prevent it from any further damage. Hair needs constant moisture and proper cleansing if you are going to spread out your wash more than seven days. Everyone’s hair needs something different. It’s essential to start by narrowing down what is causing your exact case of dryness so that you can reverse the dehydration.  

Layering

In the past few years, layering is a popular technique that puts products and oils onto your hair in a specific order. The oils last longer than they would if you were to blend them and put them on all at once. Additionally, layering helps your curls stay moisturized. They’ll remain defined for longer too. You’ll have less frizz and more style for the rest of the day.

LOC Method

The LOC method stands for Liquid, Oil, and Cream, where you apply your moisturizing products after cleansing and conditioning your hair. LOC is a layering technique useful for a moisture refresh. First, you can apply water-based products if you want to infuse extra nutrition. You have to make sure the product contains water or aloe Vera as the first ingredient on the label.

 Secondly, olive, avocado, and coconut oils protect your hair, lubricate it, and provide long-lasting nutrients. A highly effective healing and protective way to moisturize your strands is to use Shea butter and castor oil. Finally, the last LOC process is applying a nutrient-dense cream. It is important to choose a cream that is low in chemicals because the chemicals can damage your hair. If you have natural hair, you’ll probably want a heavy and thick cream. Common porosity types will benefit from light cream, like a thin leave-in conditioner.

Pre-poo

A pre-poo helps reduce breakage and detangling your hair. On wash day, the main goals are hydrating your hair and cleanse the scalp. A pre-poo allows your natural oils to remain intact and wash your scalp.  When you do a pre-poo, it is simple as saturating your hair with your regular conditioner.  Some examples of pre-poos include Shea butter, aloe Vera, and coconut milk.

Conclusion

Finding the best way to moisturize and prevent dry hair can be difficult for anybody. Hopefully, these three tips will helpful to you throughout the week.

Top 3 Women’s Haircuts of 2020

August 27, 2020 / / 0 Comments

Women stumbling upon this blog must all be feeling the same familiar itch, the one we feel before wanting to shake up our physical appearance. Change is exhilarating and there’s little to lose when it comes to your hair. Follow along below to see our top 3 picks for women’s haircuts in 2020!

Modern Bob

This year hair is taking a trip back to times of liberation and free spiritedness. The bob is perhaps the most popular hair trend to resurface in the last year and continues to be a popular choice among women of all ages. The modern bob is a twist on the short hair styles that were popular among women during the 1920’s and the women’s empowerment movement.

70’s Tribute

The 1970’s are known for being lackadaisical and hairstyles at that time were no exception. Where the mullet has yet to make a prominent comeback, curtain bangs, the textured shag, and other bold fringes are in fact back and better than ever. These 70’s inspired hairstyles are great for their relaxed, timeless, and effortless vibes.

One Length

While the one-length hair trend is most easily observed as a bob, the same polished and blunt effect can be had on hair of any length. This structured look is much more modern than the wavy and beachy textures that have been popular in recent years and is a trend commonly sported by celebrities and in the form of wigs.

Conclusion

Whether we can blame quarantine for all the locks lost this year or another nostalgic beauty industry trend, it looks like modern spins on classic hairstyles are here to stay. You would only trust an expert to help you achieve a bold new haircut, so do the same when you want it styled perfectly before a big event! From styling your hair to applying picture perfect makeup, our Vegas based team can do it all. Contact us here for more details on our beauty services!

The Return of the Perm: Why the Modern Perm Might Be The Look For You

January 24, 2020 / / 0 Comments

Perms are a hairstyle so classic that some people might call them “old-fashioned” or “outdated.” Technology that makes hair pop with waves and curls has been around since the 19th century, but perms truly hit their peak form in the 80’s, where iconic figures such as Madonna, Dolly Parton, and Cher brought the perm, in all of its bushy, frazzled glory, to soaring heights.

Once the glitz and glam of the 80’s faded, so did the perm – until recently, that is. Though it shares a name with the flashy hairstyle of yesteryear, the modern perm has a handful of differences. We’ll give you the basics on the techniques and looks of the modern perm, and by the end of this blog, you may be itching to get permanent waves yourself!

See the Difference

First, let’s get one thing out of the way: a modern perm is similar to its older cousin in name only. Forget any preconceptions you may have about bushy, loud, aggressive curls – the modern perm is all about enhancing your natural look. Yes, the perm’s true value lies in its versatility! While dramatically curled locks may still be an option for you, so are gentler, beachy waves that make for a more lived-in look. The goal of the modern perm is to add character and movement to your natural hairstyle, as opposed to completely transforming your ‘do.

All in the Technique

Conventional perms used plastic perm rods that wound up the hair and gave it its dramatic curl. Unfortunately, this technique was prone to improper hair setting on the part of the stylist, which could lead to the infamous “perm-disaster:” sharply-bent “fish-hook” ends in your hair. That’s not what anyone wants when they walk into a hair salon! Thankfully, modern perms all but erase this problem by utilizing a variety of materials. Your stylist may use foam rollers, infrared heat, or Curlformers, trademarked heatless hair rollers, to curl your hair. New techniques open the door for new types of curls, ranging from coiled curls to gently waved hair.

Conclusion

Whether you’re looking to give your hair a dramatic curly flair or a blown-out, wavy look, the modern perm may be your pathway to better hair! You’ll want professional hair stylists who understand the intricacies of your hair to handle your perm, which is why you can rely on Beauty Studio Inc. Mobile Hair and Makeup for the best possible perm! Visit our website to learn about more of the quality hair and makeup services we offer!

Hair Porosity: How Well Do You Really Know Your Hair?

October 24, 2019 / / 0 Comments

Your hair is your crowning glory. You take care of it by washing and conditioning it, using the best styling products you know of to achieve the look you desire, and maybe by throwing in a special treatment to give your strands a boost in the right direction. You might know what products to use for hair based on the styles from popular magazines and makeover shows, but do you really know your hair and what it truly needs? To better understand what you need for an impeccable head of hair, you need to first understand your hair porosity. Then you should be able to choose the best products for your individual needs.

What is hair porosity?

Porosity can be defined as your hairs ability to accept and hold on to moisture. Moisture is everything if you want an amazing head of hair. Without the proper moisture your delicate strands need, they can become more prone to frizz, dryness, and breakage. When you understand your hair’s porosity, you can choose the proper hair care products to create the perfect do’ and enhance the health of your hair.

Types of Porosity

There are three types of hair porosity: Low, Normal, and High. You can naturally have a particular type of porosity, but constant hair manipulation can cause your hair to become more or less porous.

Low Porosity

Do you find yourself trying to saturate your hair with water longer than most people? If you walk through a mist of water, do you see water beaded up on your hair like flakes of snow? If so, then you most definitely have low porosity hair. This hair type is prone to products sitting on top of the hair instead of absorbing and tends to be on the drier side. This is due to the fact that your hair cuticles lie flat and are not lifted to accept much needed moisture. Oddly enough, your hair will take a long time to dry once it is fully saturated with water. Why? Because once water is able to finally penetrate the cuticle, the cuticle closes again trapping moisture.

Since this type of hair is the most delicate, it is important for the person to hydrate properly. Using water-soluble products is best and try to avoid heavy oils and products. Deep conditioning is a must for a lush, hydrated head of hair so make sure you deep condition with heat (such as with a hooded dryer, heat cap, etc.) to lift up your hair cuticles so the conditioner can penetrate effectively.

Normal (Medium) Porosity

If you have normal hair porosity, you are the envy of the town! Your hair type can easily accept moisture and you can even cocktail the type of products you use to suit your needs. The cuticles open and close easily when they need to, so water and products can penetrate just fine. Your haircare routine can change with the weather, so pay attention to your mane and give it what it needs!

High Porosity

Does your hair soak up moisture and products like it’s never soaked in them before? If so, your hair has high porosity, meaning your cuticles tend to stay open. Using heavy products can weigh your hair down quickly, so make sure to look for lightweight, silicon-free products to style and care for your hair.

How to Find out Your Porosity

Now that you know the general guidelines on hair porosity, you might have an idea about which category your hair falls under. But to find out for sure, there are a few different ways to perform a hair porosity test. Some easy, popular ways to determine your porosity are the water shed test or the hair strand test.

  • Water Shed Test

Wet a small section of hair with a spray bottle and watch how the water reacts with the hair. Is it sitting on top? Then you have low porosity hair. Is the water absorbed quickly? Then you have high porosity.

Water shed test
  • Hair Strand Test

Take a strand of hair and place it in a cup of clean water. If it floats, it is of low porosity. If it sinks to the bottom, it is of high porosity. If it floats to the middle, then it is of normal porosity.

Sometimes women have multiple types of hair porosity at once. If you suspect this, use separate cups of water and pick strands of hair from different sections of your head where textures seem to differ. This will help you tremendously with figuring out which products best suit your needs.

Conclusion

As you can see, the styling regimen that works for one person may not be the same for the next. In order to make that crown of yours shine and thrive, you need to pick out the right products to suit your low, normal, or high porosity needs.

Day-to-Night Hair Styles for Your Las Vegas Trip

August 26, 2019 / / 0 Comments

Everyone knows that Las Vegas is hot – VERY hot. If you’re planning on going outside, you need a hairstyle that works with the heat. Luckily, there are many easy day-to-night hairstyles that anyone can manage. Try these hassle-free hairdos that work well for your day on the strip and for your night out at the clubs!

Braids

Vegas Braids

Day: Soft, loose braids look playful and flirty, while also staying out of your face. After you tie your braid, gently pull at it to make it messy and casual. Try one or two French braids to add oomph to your style, or make it more elegant by doing a classy fishtail. Glitter roots are trendy right now, so try adding some sparkle by applying glitter to your roots and to the braid itself!

Night: All-day braids are convenient because they make your hair nice and wavy once you untie them. Before you take out the braid, run a curling iron over your hair to heat it up. Then, remove the bands, flip your head upside down, and shake it out. Braids give you easy, no-effort curls that are perfect for your night out!

Bun

Vegas Bun

Day: When enduring the sweltering heat in Vegas, you don’t want to stress about your hair sticking to the sweat on your neck. Instead, put it in a bun! Buns make you look cute while also keeping your hair out of the way. Turn your head upside down, gather your hair in a ponytail, and form a bun. Use bobby pins to secure it, as hair ties will leave creases once you let your hair down.

Night: For this easy hairstyle, let down your hair, apply dry shampoo, and gently brush. Your hair should be voluminous from being up in a bun for hours. If you want to add some curls, use a curling iron to touch up certain pieces of hair that frame your face.

Curls

Vegas Curls

Day: Many people opt for all-day curls that last till nighttime. This is especially great if you’re planning on going to a day club and a nightclub. To make your curls last the entire day, wash your hair and spray it with heat protectant before curling. After you’re done curling your hair, shake it out and run your fingers through the strands to create loose, luscious locks. Then, apply hair spray to make it stay!

Night: Since your hair is already curled, you don’t have to do much to style it. You can refresh your look by using dry shampoo at the roots to eliminate sweat and oils. Or, touch up some falling strands with the curling iron again. Put on your nicest dress and you’re ready to go!

Conclusion

Las Vegas is where people come to look their best and to have a great time. Thankfully, you don’t have to be a master hair stylist to have beautiful looking hair. If you want to leave it to the professionals, call on Beauty Studio Inc. Mobile Hair and Makeup. Our mobile team of hair stylists and makeup artists will come to you and make you look Vegas-ready!

How to Control Your Frizzy Hair in Humidity

October 25, 2018 / / 0 Comments

When humidity peaks, your hair may become an uncontrollable mess of curls and tufts. If that’s the case, then finding ways to tame frizz is essential. Every person has their own hair texture, so knowing where yours lies on the spectrum will help you figure out which products to include in your haircare routine. In this blog, we will highlight tips for keeping your hair under control during the hot climate.

Shampoo and Conditioner

Finding the right shampoo and conditioner plays an integral role in how your hair behaves. To control frizz, you want to go for a lightweight moisturizing formula. Like humans, hair needs enough hydration to stay healthy or else the dryness will induce excess curls.

Serums and Oils

Once you’re done with the shower, your hair will be damp, so choosing lightweight serums, oils, or masks will control flyways. Oils act as a repellant to humidity, but if you have naturally oily hair, then only apply from mid-length to the ends.

Hairbrush, Blow Dryer Routine

Air drying your hair might not be the best option, which is why a hairbrush and blow dryer combination will smooth your mane before it has a chance to go wild. A bristle brush will be most helpful, and as you’re brushing, the heat from the blow dryer should be directed towards the ends. When your hair is completely dry, you’ll then want to turn the dryer to a cooler temperature to seal the hair cuticle and lock in hydration.

Heat Protectant Products

If possible, avoiding hot tools is best to reduce taking out the moisture from your hair. When using a curling iron or straightener, use heat protectant and anti-frizz aerosol hairspray.

Hair Accessories

If you’re feeling lazy or all else fails, hats, beanies, and headbands will hide your frizzy hair. You can make the most out of these hair accessories by bringing in your fashion sense. Wear your hair in pigtails with a bucket hat or tie it in a low ponytail with a beanie – you can make the most out of your hair dilemma with alternate options.

Conclusion

When you’re braving the summer heat, you’ll need to be meticulous about your hair. Frizz is unavoidable, but it can be tamed. With proper care and attention, you won’t have to feel self-conscious about your appearance. These suggestions are meant to guide you, but ultimately, the products and hair tricks depend on your hair texture. Once you get to know your hair, you’ll have an easier time working with it rather than against.
