Chemical Straightening
Written by: Tamara (County Line Salon)
Most curly haired people have all said it or heard it from a fellow curly haired person: “ I want straight hair!” Well the saying is true because we always want what we don’t have. If you are someone with curly, frizzy or unruly hair, your problem can be solved at the Antoine Du Chez County line location. We offer different services depending on hair types or needs. For hair that is slightly curly, frizzy or unruly we offer a non-damaging service that can be done on slightly color treated hair. This service is called Main Tamer. It is a two-step treatment giving you beautiful, healthy, straight and shiny hair. The first step to this process is to apply a non-damaging straightening solution. The second step in the process is a neutralization method, which allows the hair to remain straight and silky smooth. This product is ideal for smoothing course hair, taming unruly curls and waves as well as undoing permed ends. This service can be performed every 4 to 6 months depending on specific hair needs. During this time, your hair will maintain incredible shine and stay smooth and soft! This service will leave your hair in optimal condition. This will change your hairs appearance dramatically allowing you to look and feel completely fabulous. Make sure to ask your technician about the Kerastase Oleo Relax Serum to compliment the service.
Another type of straightening service we offer is Thermal Straightening. This service is for clients with excessive curly hair and it is a bit more intense allowing overly curly and out of control hair to be permanently straight. This service consists of 5 steps allowing the client a very specific straightness to the hair. Thermal straightening is also referred to as Japanese straightening/ The thermal straightening is best on extremely curly unruly hair, it will infuse the hair with shine also eliminating frizz and allowing the hair to be much more manageable. This service helps to deeply condition and straighten the hair.
For those of you looking for texture in the hair we offer a service that will give you natural looking curls. This product is thio free and damage free you will be able to have curls that look and feel natural without the damage!! This service will allow you to wear your hair curly or straight just with styling alone! At Antoine Du Chez we can fit all your chemical curls or straightening needs!!! Call the county line location today to book your complementary consultation. A consultation is always recommend prior to these services!
Secrets to Healthy Looking Hair
Written by: Laurel Olson (Cherry Creek Salon employee)
Why do women color their hair? In a survey conducted by Wella Professional, clients mentioned healthy-looking hair as the main reason, namely shine and conditioning. How does color create healthy-looking hair? Conditioning agents and shine enhancers allow the hair to reflect more light. As we move toward colder drier weather, hair needs a little extra help to restore health and shine.
Blonde hair:
Over-lightening and sun exposure can leave blonded strands straw-like in feel and appearance. Deep conditioning and a change to gentler coloring products is the answer to this problem.
Highlights should be fewer in number, and concentrated around the face. Deeper tones should be introduced to the blonde palette, choosing warm light-reflecting tones such ans amber and caramel. Demi-permanent color will add depth to overly lightened hair without further damage. The glaze should also be warmer, using honey or golden beige to blend and add shine.
To strengthen and moisturize overly blonded tresses, a deep conditioning treatment is beneficial. Vita ciment, a salon treatment by Kerastase, replenishes intercellular cement, filling in "potholes" in the hair to strengthen it from within.
Brunettes and Redheads:
Summer sun can fade darker hues and turn them"brassy". To rejuvinate brunette and red colors., consider covering all highlights with a translucent demi-permanent glaze that matches the base color. Highlights will peak through but much more subtly, with increased shine and richness. Another option is to add warm lowlights, such as coppery brown or chestnut to maintain multi-tonality. Finish with and all over golden glaze for sparkle and to blend the color palette.
Bangin'
Written by: Kathryn Greever & Denise Unrein (DTC Salon Employees)
As always Antoine Du Chez offers complimentary bang trims in between cuts to freshen up your look without the need of a full hair cut.
There is no need for an appoinment, just walk on in and one of our stylist will be glad to assist you.
And while we do not suggest you cut your own bangs at home (we all have heard and experienced those lovely cuts) , we all have been in the situations where there is no time to come in and you are looking like Cousin It. Below are a few tips from our team of master stylists:
Scissors- No borrowing your childs scissors or grabbing the pair from the kitchen. A good inexpensive pair can be found at Sally's or the beauty section at your local drug store.
Cut Dry- Your hair shrinks from the transistion from wet to dry. Your bangs could have the perfect look when you have cut them wet, by as soon as they are dry, you could be all forehead.
