Just a really fun visual to growing your hair out :) 

One of our most frequently asked questions is how often should you come back to maintain hair cuts. The answer will vary from client to client depending on the length of your hair, how quickly it grows and the style of cut you have. There is a very general guideline we follow that is every 4-8 weeks. 

Shorter hairstyles will require more maintenance while longer cuts will require less. Usually short cuts every 4-5 weeks, medium lengths every 4-6 weeks, and long cuts every 6-8 weeks. Your stylist will know best so always ask what they recommend.

Best product for thin hair

We are very excited about blogging so i asked the team of stylists some questions that they are frequently asked to start writing about. Today, the question is

"What is the best product for thinning hair?"

I feel like this question can be answered in a couple of different ways because it depends on how you want to tackle thinning hair. Do you want to treat it and actually see a difference is the amount of hair you have. Do you want to fatten the hair you already have. Do you want products to help in styling thin hair?
If you want to treat thinning hair, we recommend Aveda's Invati line. It is AMAZING!! It has an exfoliating shampoo, thickening conditioner and scalp revitalizer... I have been using the entire line at home and i can tell a HUGE difference. I'm using it more to help grow my hair out, but i can tell a big difference in the thickness of my hair. The scalp revitalizer helps energize and rehabilitate the scalp to encourage new hair growth.


If you want to fatten the hair you already have, Bumble and bumble Thickening Serum is great! You use it on your hair twice a day and will actually feel your hair getting thicker over 4-6 weeks.


As far as styling thin hair, there are endless possibilities. Bumble and bumble Thickening family is great and also Aveda Pure Abundance.



Happy Styling!!
