February 2013 Honorable Mentions

The CIAA Tournament had me very busy this week! After doing some quick collection of thoughts, I figured that I would make these Honorable Mentions . . ..

1) Design Essentials Naturals line is now being sold in Sally's Beauty Supply stores.  It was a corporate decision.

2) I had a conversation with a rock band member about his hair.  He claimed that smoking weed/pot/marijuana caused his straight hair to turn curly.  Any type of drugs, prescription or not, can potentially change your hair's behavior.  It's something to think about.  Careful about alcoholic beverage consumption as well.

3)  Foiling in "lowlights" can be a great way to come out of ombre hair/two toned hair.  You can use the "Gray Away" spray (separate blog article) to temporarily test out your decision before using a demi or semi-permanent color.  Keep the color wheel on hand for any color correction.  Foil placement is important.  I would stick with having a professional colorist to blend in lowlights to alter ombre hair.

4) When deciding to get the "big chop," a barber may be better suited for a "low fro" than a cosmetologist.
