Makeup needs to change for a haircolor change!

~ Joseph Kellner ~ Leave a comment

People who apply makeup professionally are called makeup artists. They deserve the title “artist,” because they play with colors to enhance and highlight your natural beauty, a hairdresser does the exact same. It is true that both makeup artists and hairdressers work off the same color wheel yet the makeup artist has an easier job when learning the trade because with a little cleanser and water the makeup comes off when it’s not a desired result, not so easy for the hairdresser .There are many theories on how to select your colors in makeup and hair and all have their own unique points. For me as a hair color specialist my theory is whether its makeup or hair color we need to apply both cool and warm tones on any individual, each compliments each other when placed correctly beside or on top of each other this is how we balance. The fact is; all human beings are made up of many tones; take for an example a pale (cool) skinned brunette (warm) with blue eyes (cool), she’s warm and cool just how Mother Nature made all of us. My beliefs is for all hairdressers and makeup artists to learn the most important basic fundamentals in each respectful domains, and both will realize makeup and hair color can draw ideas from each other, enhance and highlight the same features, eye color, skin tone, bone structure, hair because they both work off the universal color wheel.

I have had the honor of working with some of the world’s best and finest makeup artist and have learnt many things and tricks; makeup has been an insightful learning element in my career as a hair colorist. Makeup artists as well as a hairdresser sometimes use the same techniques (makeup layers and blends so does hair color. Now can you imagine you the consumers going to a hairdresser who offers you to finish your visit with a change of lip and or a blush color after your new or freshened up hair color, nice huh!.Still to this day I love working with makeup artists and doing a little makeup on my clients, after all if I am sending someone home after a change to their hair color with the same makeup they came in with truly my job isn’t finished and when makeup connects to hair color it works in harmony for the ultimate end result to achieve individual beauty. Talk with you client on ideas of makeup change for her new haircolor. This is a must!

Got a formal event coming up and not sure what to do with your hair? Nobody wants to head into a hair salon without an idea of what they want done and, if it’s something special like a wedding or formal event, it’s good to know what you like and what you think will suit your attire. As you aren’t likely to be attending a formal event every evening, it’s hard to get enough experience to be confident in what hairstyle you do want. Knowing what looks good and doing a bit of research is the best way to find a ‘do’ that suits you perfectly.

Great Hairstyles for Formal Events

Like with day-to-day hairstyles and cuts, what looks good is going to depend primarily on your face shape and what’s popular. Long-gone are the days of needing a perm to be fashionable – it seems like the 2000s ushered in a whole new era of ‘anything-goes’, meaning there are plenty of great looking, varied styles that you can choose from. Read on for a few ideas of how to make your hair look great for any occasion, and remember to talk to your hair salon’s stylist about the more intricate ways to dress up your style.

For Long Hair

Curls are big at the moment and, when you have long, flowing hair, can be great at bringing out your best features. They are a perfect way to frame the face, giving you a completely different look without having to make radical changes. The added texture will be fantastic with that new dress and, if you normally have straight or wavy hair, the noticeable change is sure to turn a few heads.

For Medium Hair

Wearing your hair up in a bun or clutched at the back can be the perfect start to your formal hairstyle. Adding flowers or pins that match your dress is an excellent way to further coordinate and tie your outfit together. A French plait or simple braids can add more interest and texture, especially if you have a wider face.

For Short Hair

Some people worry that there is no good formal hairstyle for shorter hair, but with a bit of mousse or styling product you can create a fantastic short, straight and gorgeous look with ease. Let your hair accentuate your facial features and style around them – bob and pixie cuts are popular at the moment and look amazing with very little effort.

If you have an event coming up then have a look online and in magazines for formal hairstyles that you think will suit you. Remember to pay close attention to what works with what face shape and get some idea of what you’re after before you visit your stylist.
