Make sure that you ALWAYS use shampoos and conditioners for color-treated hair to protect and extend your color. If your hair is dry use a leave-in conditioner that will help keep the cuticle sealed. You can also use a conditioning masque once a week. Highlighted and bleached blondes are one of the most fragile colors, so they should double-dose on treatments. I highly recommend Kalea Rose Hair care which is sold in the Joseph Kellner Salon. Dry hair isn’t a pretty look. The sun damages the hair enough without the aid of products that dry the hair. Avoid using products such as shampoos, conditioners, gels, and other styling products that contain alcohol, sulfur, and formaldehyde.

• Periodically give your hair a vacation from styling products, blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons, and hot rollers.

Tanning in the hot sun is not only bad for your skin but it can also lead to hair dryness. To prevent this problem from occurring, it is ideal to lay off the blow dryer and hair irons during this time. There is no better time than summer to embrace your natural hair texture. Avoiding hot styling tools will also help reduce breakage, which is the primary care of frizz. The problem is even more common during the summer since your locks tend to be drier than usual. Try wearing “wash and go styles,” which are increasingly popular for natural hair care during the summer months.When it is possible allow the hair to air dry. Apply a heat protectant such as Kalea Rose Sleek, to hair before using a heat appliance. Use the lowest settings on the appliance to avoid damage. Other styles to wear to avoid using heat appliances include braids and dreadlocks.

• Use a conditioner made for your specific hair needs at least twice a week, especially if you spend a lot of time out in the sun.

It’s also said that running your hair under water before hitting the pool can help to prevent it from absorbing chlorinated water. This can be ideal for women who find that their color-treated hair turns green during the summer season. Avoid dry hair by keeping your hair hydrated. Use a hair moisturizer daily. This will also help strengthen your mane. A moisturizer containing shea butter is great for daily use.

• Avoid putting too much product in your hair. It will weigh it down and make it look dull rather than shiny.

Layered hairstyles are ideal for anyone who wants to add lots of texture their hair. Layers can look great with natural-looking waves or straightened with a flat iron. If you’re getting bored with your style, you might think about changing your color. Here are some hair color ideas for long, layered hairstyles.

Highlights can be one of the best ways to add extra dimension to a layered hairstyle. If your hair color is in the blonde to medium brown range, you may want to think about adding a shade of honey blonde highlights. For darker hair colors, highlights in a shade of vibrant red, copper, or caramel may be a nice alternative. If you’re considering a layered style with side-swept bangs, highlights can look especially good.
If you’re not a fan of highlights or if you’re looking for even more ways to add dimension to your layered hairstyle, consider lowlights. Lowlights are like highlights, except that they are darker than your base color. If you have a shade of dark blonde hair, you may choose to add medium brown lowlights for a funkier look.
One-Tone Hair Color Ideas
Keep in mind that you don’t need to add highlights or lowlights to make long, layered hairstyles look beautiful. There are many beautiful colors that can liven up a layered style. Women with warm reddish or golden skin tones should consider a shade of golden blonde or reddish-brown, those with cool or dark skin tones may want to think about choosing a shade of caramel, bronze, or mocha.

Trends of styles through the years If you watch old movies, you should see how hair and makeup trends have changed through time. Notice how Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hepburn’s looks are different and how their hair and makeup are not exactly popular today. These trends however, seem to cycle themselves through time as well. Let’s do a survey on hair and makeup styles, you can even try them on yourself.

1920’s Hair and Makeup

The 1920’s was the age of what is called the flapper fashion. Women started using makeup and applied them in public. Ox blood lipstick was predominantly used during this time. In terms of hairstyles, it was universal to sport short hair, which was a radical move from the long, curtain hair styles before the war. Bobbed, shingle cut and Eton cropped were famous among the younger generations, and cloche hats were in fashion.

1950’s Hair and Makeup

During the 50’s and 60’s, soft hues, peaches and cream were the predominating look. Narrow eyebrows and natural look with minimal blush and eyeshadow was the way to go. Lips were full and lush in color.
The 50’s look was achieved through a very long and arduous process of rolling and pin curling. There were no blow dryers or electric curlers during this time so you could just imagine! Women had to even sleep through their curlers and rollers.

60’s Hair and Makeup

As in the 50’s, what predominant during the 60’s was the extensive use of curlers. Straight hair was totally out, and beauty meant short hair. If you were born on this decade and you had long hair, you would probably wear some party curls and piquant pixies. If you had longer hair, you most probably would have had ruffled and big, curvy curls.

70’s Hair and Makeup

In the 1970’s, the age of disco style, not much changed in terms of makeup; the natural look was still favoured of all. However, makeup hair tips during that time was favoured towards long, smooth and straight hair with a flip towards the end.

80’s Hair and Makeup

Hairstyles in the 80’s were unusually large. Remember how Princess Diana looked like? This big hair look can be achieved through a blow dryer and some styling brush. Rollers and curlers became out of sight. Bob cutes became in, and cosmetic hair products for giving extra volume (mousse and gel) were popularly used.

Having a dry, itchy scalp is an annoying skin condition. Find out why your scalp is itchy so you can take steps to get some relief.

Is itchy evera good thing? The answer has to be never. And when it comes to your scalp, this kind of irritation is often accompanied by embarrassing flakes. Here, skin and scalp experts explain what could be causing your scalp to itch.  Dandruff is the most common culprit to blame for an itchy scalp. The medical condition of dandruff is caused by an overgrowth of yeast.  The yeast normally live on your scalp and in other hairy areas, such as the eyebrows, the ears, and men’s beards. With changes in body chemistry, the yeast overgrow and feed on your dead skin cells and oils, which causes the itching and flaking.  To properly control dandruff, you need to eliminate its fungal component without creating more irritation and redness.

For mild cases,  use an over-the-counter shampoo that contains selenium, zinc pyrithione, or tea tree oil, all of which help control yeast. If your scalp is not itchy but more flaky, then try a salicylic acid shampoo to reduce buildup. More stubborn cases may require a prescription antifungal shampoo or cortisone foam, or, for especially severe cases, anti-yeast pills. Scalp itch can also result from trips to the hair salon. Repeated chemical hair treatments like permanent color, relaxers, and keratin treatments can sap your scalp of moisture.

Another culprit could be a daily blow-drying habit. The excessive heat can irritate and dry out the scalp. Avoid using the hair dryer at its hottest setting, especially when hair is very wet. That’s actually the hair’s most fragile state. 

An itchy scalp can also be an allergic reaction to certain hair products. Some products, such as hair sprays, contain ingredients that tighten as they dry. This causes a slight pulling sensation on the scalp, leading to itchiness. Sometimes the root of the problem is environmental. Other factors that contribute to scalp irritations include exposure to cool environments with low humidity, and the effects of wind and sun.

The way back to a healthy scalp (and healthy, shiny hair) begins with upping the moisture. Avoid hot water when washing your hair, because it can strip the natural oils from your scalp, making it very dry and sensitive. 

Sometimes an itchy scalp can be a red flag signaling other, more serious medical conditions. If your scalp develops thick, scaly patches that hurt, crack, or bleed, you may have psoriasis — a chronic autoimmune disease that appears on the skin. If, along with the itchiness, your hair is falling out or breaking, you may have ringworm. If any oozing occurs, or a crust develops or pus appears on the scalp, you could be suffering from a staph infection. Your safest bet is to consult your doctor with any concerns about an itchy scalp.

Look for moisturizing and protective ingredients like dimethicone, a silicone compound that smooths the hair surface, making it shiny also I recommend using a good conditioner to soothe the scalp and leave hair moisturized.

Single-process color can appear flat and one-dimensional. To avoid this, Joseph Kellner suggests layering several variations of scarlet over each other: It reads as one color, but it’s full of texture—it doesn’t feel like a block of red. Mixed one color for your clients scalp area and a lighter version of that for the rest of her head. Then added fine brownish-red lowlights throughout and put subtle highlights on her ends so that they don’t look too inky.  For a believable red you want to stay within your natural base color. If you’re a dark blond, golden copper is good because there are undertones of that in your hair already; if you’re a light brunette, opt for copper; if you’re a medium brunette, think auburn. There’s nothing prettier than a child’s sunny copper hair—it has so much dimension. When you are hair coloring never choose a level 3 levels lighter than your base color. You will acheive a financial commitment you are not ready for.

Instead of choosing hair color based on someone’s skin tone, I focus on their eyes. If you have yellow in your eyes—a golden brown or hazel—think warm reds.  If your eyes are black-brown or pale blue, go cooler. The reasoning for playing up peepers instead of skin. A lot of natural redheads have a pinkish complexion, but then others have a more golden one. People always find ways to modify their skin tone, whether it’s tinted moisturizer or self-tanner. For the ideal eye-enhancing shade of red, I recommends holding different colored hair swatches up to your forehead. Then, once you decide on your favorites, have your colorist do test strands.

Red is one of the most difficult colors to keep; it fades ultra fast, so you’ll want to use a pigment-protecting product with UV filters.  It’s also one of the most difficult colors to get away from. Red tends to leave a residue, especially on blond hair. Be willing to stay with a warmer version of whatever your color was before. Even if you were originally a brunette, you’re going to have an underlying red tone for a bit.

While infusing your hair with red takes a few hours, I don’t recommend stripping the hair. Wait until your hair has faded before going to the salon—you want Mother Nature to help you get back to where you want to go. Once you finally do visit the salon, I like to start with a gentle professional product to take the red out, then have you come back in after a day or two to apply a more intensive chemical remover. And what ever shade of red haircolor you choose, please remember to use Salon hair care for your artificial hair color. Try Kalea Rose only available at the Joseph Kellner Salon in Orlando, Florida 32836.

Highlights and dyes can damage your hair. We’ve got the tips to keep your hair healthy and your color vibrant.

Always use products specifically designed for color-treated hair. Only color-safe products have the technology to help you keep your salon-perfect color vibrant and fresh.

After you color your hair, wait two or three days (if you can make it) before shampooing to allow the color to absorb completely. If you want to shower, use conditioner in place of shampoo to give extra moisture without stripping the color.

Be especially gentle with color-treated hair — coloring weakens hair and makes it more prone to breakage. Only use covered elastics to tie it back and brush it with a natural bristle brush when it’s dry.

Never go swimming without protecting your color. Before going into a pool or the ocean, apply a leave-in conditioner on damp hair to prevent the chemicals and salt from stripping your color.

Don’t go to a tanning bed or sit in the sun without covering your hair. The UV rays will react with your color and may alter it or cause it to fade, so cover your hair with a scarf or hat.

Don’t forget to condition your hair daily! Colored hair needs extra moisture to keep it soft and smooth.

In order to get the best look for your sexy new style, you need strong and beautiful hair. Try these simple strength-building tips for healthy, durable locks.

To prevent breakage, apply Kalea Rose Passion Conditioner in the shower and rinse. Don’t rough dry wet hair out of the shower with a towel as it will damage hair, blot hair instead to remove the moisture. Rough drying will only cause more damage.

Always condition your hair if it’s prone to breakage. Conditioning is the best way to give your hair the nourishment it needs to stay strong. And especially if it is colored treated, and foiled highlighted.

 

Use detangling spray. I recommend Revive Leave in Conditioner by Kalea Rose and a wide-tooth comb on damp hair — wet hair is more delicate.

Sleep on a satin pillowcase if your hair is especially delicate. Satin won’t snag your hair or cause friction like cotton, which can rough up the cuticle of extremely fine hair.

Don’t use elastics that have metal clasps on them. Always tie up your hair with covered, snag-free elastics.

Try not to sleep with your hair tied back. Leave your hair down as often as possible at night to prevent breakage.

To prevent frizz, Blow dry hair with Kalea Rose Sleek No Frizz Smoothing Cream to create smooth texture. Getting the right brush is key for frizz-free hair. Invest in a boar-bristle brush with a rubber base to smooth and straighten hair. Or use a thermal brush.

To prevent breakage, wash hair with Kalea Rose Sulfate Free Shampoo and Kalea Rose Passion Conditioner. Hair is most fragile when it is wet, so after washing, dry hair gently with a towel to absorb excess water. Avoid brushing until most of the moisture has evaporated.

If you have really fine hair and are afraid of conditioning, apply conditioner first in the shower and then shampoo your hair. That way, your hair gets the moisture it needs, and you’ll get the clean, full-bodied feeling of a fresh shampoo.

Rinse, Rinse, Rinse! Any conditioner left on your hair will weigh it down and won’t allow you to get the most optimal style.

Never brush your hair with a metal or bristle brush when it’s wet. Use a wide-tooth comb or a vent brush on damp hair to prevent breakage.

When applying conditioner, focus on the mid-shaft to ends as that is where the most damage is; you don’t need to moisturize the roots.

Dry, brittle hair also looks flat and lacking shine. Apply a moisturizing conditioner like Kale Rose Passion Conditioner after you shampoo, making sure to rinse it out well.

If your hair is brittle, don’t be afraid to lightly rinse conditioner out of your hair — it may benefit from a little conditioner left on your ends.

If your hair is fine, don’t try to over-condition it — this will only weigh it down. Pick the right conditioner for fine hair to add back moisture.

For naturally stronger, healthier hair, make sure you have a balanced diet. Your hair is a reflection of your inner health, so design your eating habits accordingly.

Once a week, deep condition your hair to leave it ultra soft and super strong. Apply your usual conditioner all over damp hair and put hair in a shower cap or towel. Leave it on your hair for 10 minutes and then rinse thoroughly. Again I like to use Kalea Rose Passion Conditioner, this is a dual product for everyday use and also for treatments.

After shampooing and conditioning your hair, do a final rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle and leave hair looking extra shiny.

Avoid using a brush to detangle hair when it’s wet or damp — use a wide-tooth comb. Hair is more delicate when it’s wet, and a comb is gentler on damp hair than a brush.

It’s often said that brunettes have even more fun than blondes. If you’re getting a bit bored with your brown hair, though, you may be looking for a change. Here are some tips on how to liven up brown hair shades.

Add Highlights or Lowlights
One of the best ways to add texture and dimension to brown hair is to add highlights or lowlights. Whether you opt for honey blonde or vibrant red highlights or lowlights in a darker shade of brown, adding streaks to your hair can be a great way to liven up a mousy brown hair shade. Keep in mind that you can ask your stylist for thick chunky highlights or thin natural highlights.

Consider Going Darker or Lighter
There are many beautiful brown shades out there to choose from, so don’t feel like you are limited to just one! Coloring your hair lighter or darker can give you a fun new look. Whether you opt for a luscious shade of dark chocolate brown or a light golden brown, you will find plenty of brown hair shades to explore.If you’re thinking about coloring your hair, you may want to think about trying out a trendy shade. Caramel brown hair color can be an ideal option if you have an olive skin tone, like Jessica Alba, or a darker skin tone, like Beyoncé Knowles. Shades of mocha and bronze are also very “in” right now. If you are considering a reddish shade of brown, you may want to consider a shade of cherry chocolate brown.

Light Brown Hair Shades
If you have light brown hair, your best bet is to opt for blonde highlights. Although the general rule of thumb is to opt for highlights which are no more than two shades lighter than your base color, platinum or honey blonde highlights tend to look very natural on women with light brown hair color. Not into blonde highlights? Red highlights can also look beautiful on women with light brown hair shades.

Medium Brown Hair Shades
If you have medium brown hair color, you generally need to be careful about the color of highlights that you choose. It can be easy to misjudge what shade will look right on you, and platinum blonde highlights can look too dramatic. Shades of golden blonde and dark blonde can be ideal. If you have a medium chocolate brown hair color, light auburn highlights can also be a good option.

Darkest Brown Hair Shades
It can seem difficult to find highlight colors for darkest brown, or nearly black, hair shades. Shades like caramel brown and mocha are good alternatives to blonde and are ideal for lightening up. If you would prefer red highlights, consider a shade of copper or mahogany. Since darkest brown hair shades can be difficult to color over top of, it’s ideal to make an appointment with a hair stylist.

Hair Colors for a Younger Look

When we say hair color, it does not only mean hiding the grays. There are many color palates that can transform your look, back to the good old ‘looking-pretty’ days! Yes, before we begin we would like to share some tips that can be useful. Opt for a good haircut that will make you look younger. Trust me with a bad cut, even the best of hair colors will not help, so make sure you get that right. Cover your grays, these hair color ideas for gray hair can help you. Even if the hair is thinning, graying, keep them nourished and healthy. Once you get this on track, you can crown them with some cool shades of hair color.

Earths and Browns: Most of us think natural is the best, and hair colors in brown shades give just enough warmth, to keep you looking younger. In case of browns choose something that is not extremely contrasting to your natural hair color and skin tone. Two shades lighter than your original hair color will give you a decent warm look. Opt for smooth chocolate shades, honey brown, golden brown and light brown to ash brown shades. The pigmentation on the skin tends to fade away as we age, so brightening up the pale look is important. These shades will give you just the right amount of glow.

Subtle Reds: Yes, you still can play with some hot red shades of hair color. Though some care needs to be taken when choosing them. Bright funky reds are a big no! Do not even try highlighting a chunk of hair or few strands in dark and funky red. Use subtle tones and warm tones close to brown and not contrasting to the hair color. Auburn shades and shades in reddish brown can give you a chic look. With a stylish hair style, reds can do well to create a younger look.

Golden Blondes: If you have lighter colored hair, blonde shades can be your hair color for a younger look. Here again make sure you do not create contrasts. While choosing the shades, do not color in pale blondes and very light tones. Keep two shades darker or lighter from the original hair color. Shades like honey blonde and golden blonde, and dark natural blondes can go well for highlights giving you a sun kissed appearance. For low lights (darker shade than your natural hair color) you can try beige natural blonde or dark natural blonde. Stay away from ash blondes and platinum blondes. Try to get low lights when you have light blonde hair, darker shades will create depth in the overall look. These colors will add the glow to your face and instantly brighten up a dull and old look.

Makeup Hair Tips

For the meantime, we offer you some quick makeup hair tips for everyday use. This may not give you a hair and makeup makeover or achieve your best-foot-forward look, but it will definitely make you look stunning during a normal work day:

1. Clean your skin quick. To remove oils and refresh your makeup, mist up with face with your toner, pat and even out with tissue, then finish with loose powder.

2. Lighten hair locks. Using too much hair cosmetics coupled with scalp grease can make your hair look dirty. To lighten locks, sprinkle some powder (the translucent kind) over your hair roots, then brush.

3. Hydrate. Use a conditioner to moisturize your hair and use a moisturizer for your face.

4. Fake perfect skin with pink. Aside from concealer, wearing a pink lipstick will take attention off your blemishes.

5. Depuff in a flash. If your hair is frizzy, dampen your hands with water and a little drop of lotion, then pull your hair into a French twist. Wait for about 5 minutes then take them down.

6. If in a hurry, focus on your front and top hair since this is what is most visible.

7. Ponytail is not such a bad idea. It is simple, easy to do and gives you a clean look. Spray some hairspray to finish it off.

8. Revive your face swiftly by patting a concealer under your lower lashes and the inner corners of your eyes.

To those who don’t have it, straight hair is enviable—it rarely frizzes, beautifully reflects light and is so simple to style (not to mention fairly versatile). So why do so many women with straight hair complain about their hair type?  Straight hair has a tendency to fall flat—fast. And when cut incorrectly, it can make you look like you have less of it. Pin straight hair has no forgiving factor so any mistake—bad angles, layers or bangs—will show in spades. This why the right (and perfect) cut is critical.  That right cut: a blunt style—or hair that’s cut straight across. Cutting blunt keeps the thickness and fullness of the hair, which is especially important with fine straight hair. Adding a few long layers is an option—it softens the lines and creates movement. Though too many can thin out the bottom and make the hair appear stringy.  Dry cutting with scissors is the preferred technique with this hair type because it creates strong, precise lines. You can see every move you’re making and feel the shape much better. If your hair is long, as noted, a blunt base is best with a sweeping or heavy-straight bang (a la Sandra Bullock at this year’s Golden Globes). For the sweeping style, the bang should start at the top point of the cheekbone and angle around the face, just touching the eyebrow to the other side. For a fuller bang, more hair is pulled forward and cut level. A few long, strategically placed layers around the face opens it up, adds movement and can make the cut more interesting and modern. With medium, or shoulder length, the Bob is best. Any variation will work—from a classic blunt to a more graduated style, where the hair is slightly longer in the front than the back. If your hair is fine, cut on the shorter side. “The longest you should go is about an inch or two past your shoulders, otherwise it will get weighed down and will be tough to add volume to when styling.”

“Which hair color works best on grays?”  If it is done right, permanent hair color doesn’t damage hair and it’s the best way to cover gray, that’s what it’s made for. If you’re concerned that your hair will get damaged from coloring it too often, simply touch up your roots when needed — no need to color the entire strand. If you dye it from roots to ends every time, your ends will gradually become more saturated and you’ll end up with unintentional two-tone hair.

“I touched up my gray roots a week and a half ago and within a week they were already lighter than the rest of my hair. I already use color-treated shampoo and conditioner.” It sounds like you’re using the wrong color when doing the roots. Hair color should last three to six weeks or until the roots start to grow out. The ashier the color, the less gray coverage. The warmer the color, the better for covering grays.  Also, be sure that you’re using a permanent color that’s intended for covering gray because semi-permanent color simply can’t offer the same coverage. And, continue using color-treated hair products in the shower because they will help keep color truer longer in our salon we use Kalea Rose Haircare!

“I have really dark hair and I’m considering coloring it red. What’s the healthiest and most effective way to get the specific hue that I want? Should I go to a professional or buy a box at the drugstore?” The best way to get the right hair color is to go to a professional.  If you pick the wrong red shade you (or we) may not be able to get it out or fix it. And, when it comes to choosing the hue. When you go red, it should be a red that appears naturally, not a red that appears on a clown or a vegetable. Look for coppery, cinnamon, strawberry and auburn reds. Avoid aubergine, cherry, orange and pumpkin hues. If it doesn’t appear in [natural hair color], it won’t appear natural on you. Never use store bought hair color.

“How can you extend the life of hair color while combating dandruff? I haven’t found an anti-dandruff shampoo that doesn’t cause my hair to fade.” Unfortunately, all anti-dandruff shampoos cause color fading, because they are like a medicine for your scalp. The only way to extend the life of any hair color is to use the right [color-formulated] shampoo and conditioner. But, I recommend asking your doctor how long you need to use the anti-dandruff formula and to inquire whether there are other options for treating it.

 ”Can I get highlights if I’ve already dyed my hair?” This is absolutely an acceptable practice. In fact, for most clients, I color them and, highlight them at the same time. Highlighting color-treated hair is that “it looks more natural.”
