Do you have Lived-in Hair?

If you keep up with the fashion trends (as we love to do), you may have heard the term “lived-in” hair before. It sounds cool, but what exactly does it mean?

Imagine you’ve been riding in a Jeep or strolling through the park on a windy day or you curled your hair yesterday, but the theme of the day is “I woke up like this”… THAT’S lived-in hair. Have you seen the gorgeous piecey, almost-falling-out boho braids? Lived. In. Hair. What about the rooty balayage look where…

Updos for BBQs

It’s that time of year… you know the one. It’s Cookout Season It begins with Memorial Day and vaguely ends at Labor Day with a huge influx on the fourth day of July. It’s COOKOUT season. Whether you call it a cookout or a barbecue, it probably involves standing around outside drinking beer or lemonade, eating grilled food, and if you live in North Carolina, trying not to melt. If you have hair that touches your neck at all, you’re probably very familiar with the sticky frizz that happens when standing outside for longer than approximately five minutes in NC….

Preserve Your Summer Hair Color

Keep your Summer Hair Color Vibrant Summertime can be a blast—beach trips, pool days, lake days, sun tanning, and cooking out. We tend to be outside way more in the summer, and that often means extra exposure to both the sun and water.

Balayage – Hair Color + Dimension

Balayage, Hand Painted Artistry Most hair trends come and go or at least fade in popularity year to year, but there’s one trend that has definitely proven it is here to stay. BALAYAGE.

Starting to become popular with a subtle sun-kissed look, balayage has evolved into an incredibly versatile art form—a favorite of both stylists and clients alike. The customizable nature of balayage broadens its appeal making it accessible to essentially all hair types, textures,…
