The Mane Event: Holiday Hairstyling Gifts





You know that friend who wouldn’t be seen at the local drugstore buying shampoo.  The same friend who thinks humidity is the archenemy. Chances are, we all know somebody that takes their hair very seriously.  Looking to cross that hair person off your gift giving list?  Here is a quick list of go-to products for the hair obsessed:
Aveda Wooden Hair Paddle Brush.  This brush has been around for about 20 years.  A professional wooden paddle brush with extended bristles, this brush detangles hair, reducing the stress to hair and to scalp during blow drying.  With a wooden paddle brush that is  lightweight, this brush is considered worth every penny.   It is also good for scalp treatments and detangling.  Aveda Wooden Paddle Brush

Sparkle Bobby Pins Seen on last fall’s runway shows, these bobby pins come now in pearl-encrusted looks or just plain sparkly gold or silver.  They are great for sectioning off part of your hair or flanking in front to hold hair in place. Sparkle Bobby Pins


Scrunchies
Believe or not, that trend from the 90s is back, and people are embracing it!  New York City-based hairstylist Neil Grupp has said that choosing scrunchies over regular elastics could have a hair health benefits as you can get damage sometimes if the metal or the elastic snags the hair. “Soft scrunchies are awesome,” Grupp said.  “The benefit is that they are gentle on the hair.” They are good for working out or just for a change of pace.  Scrunchies

Winterize Your Hair


There are so many wonderful things about winter. Holiday cheer, time with family, skiing trips, hot cocoa, and spending the day cooped up inside reading a book. On the flip side, there are quite a few unpleasant things about winter. Unpredictable temps, dry air, cold winds, and unlikely chance of snow. When braving the elements in the middle of winter, our nose, fingers, and toes aren’t the only things that suffer. Our hair can suffer real stress and damage from the elements during the cooler winter months. Dryness, brittleness, and breakage are real possibilities for your hair if not properly cared for when Jack Frost makes a visit to the south. What can you do to keep your hair shiny, healthy, and happy despite the cooler temperatures?

Hats
Cover up those tresses. In recent years, hats as a fashion accessory have made their way back onto the scene and are now a closet staple for many. Gone are the days of frumpy wool caps, and in their place are sleek, edgy fashion pieces that add to any outfit. Not only do they sauce up your outfit, they also protect your hair from wind, rain, and occasional snowflakes.

Deep Conditioners
Use these at least once a week to counteract the stress your hair experiences from facing the elements. You can purchase deep conditioning masks from your stylist or even make your own at home with egg yolk or coconut oil. That said, always consult your stylist before trying any DIY masks as each head of hair is unique.

Humidifiers
This is less of an obvious trick; however, a humidifier is a great addition to your room not only to keep your hair moisturized, but your skin as well. During the winter months, moisture disappears from the air. This dry environment can suck moisture from your hair and skin leaving it dry and brittle, making it susceptible to breakage.

At Salon James, our professional stylists have the knowledge, experience, and expertise to provide the very best in hair care tips and solutions to keep your locks healthy during the cooler months of winter. For more information about our services, please visit our website or give us a call at (225)-636-2220 today!

Nailin’ It: The Benefits of Manicures and Pedicures

Salon James Pedicure
On October 13th, 2011, the wildly-acclaimed TV-show Parks and Recreation introduced a celebrated holiday named “Treat Yo’Self Day.” Basically, it’s a day to unapologetically treat yourself to the lavishes of the world that you wouldn’t normally do on a daily basis. And at Salon James, where everyday is Treat Yo’Self Day, we love to talk about the many benefits of manicures and pedicures.

  1. Relax and De-Stress
One of the most common reasons people invest in manicures and pedicures is that it’s a great way kick back and relax. Our hands specifically tend to suffer if we pick or bite our nails under stress, and our feet are constantly confined in shoes during work hours. Getting pampered always leaves people feeling refreshed, and your hands and feet are some of the most overworked parts of your body. Plus, who doesn’t feel good when you have trimmed and polished nails?

  1. Caring for the Health of Your Nails and Skin
Looks aren’t everything though. It’s important to keep your nails healthy, since your hands and feet are exposed to a lot of elements, and can be susceptible to fungi and other infections. When you treat yourself to manicures and pedicures, you’re also keeping your nails in tip-top shape- something that is often forgotten about. Manicures and pedicures also care for the skin on your hands and feet, helping to exfoliate and get rid of any excess dead skin. Soft hands and feet mean new cell growth- which is always a plus!

  1. Improving Blood Circulation
Adding on to the health benefits of manicures and pedicures, the massage that is given are great for improving blood circulation to your hands and feet. Even if you have perfectly good blow flow, massaging your hands and feet improves the mobility of your joints, leaving you feel rejuvenated and free from hand and foot cramps. Tell me that doesn’t sound like a win-win to you.

There’s always more than meets the eye, and we are firm believers in the mental, physical and health benefits that manicures and pedicures provide to our customers. Don’t let Treat Yo’Self day be exclusively for one day of the year. Let Salon James pamper and care for you whenever you need it. For more information on our services, you can visit our website or give us a call at (225)-636-2220 today.

Come to the Dark Side This Fall

You know fall is coming not only by the weather changing, but by everything pumpkin-spice flavored, flannel/vests combos, and annual trips to pumpkin farms. Another tell-tale sign that fall is coming is hair colors transitioning to darker hues- a personal favorite of ours at Salon James! Thinking of going dark for the fall and winter months? Here’s a professional opinion of why you should!

Salon James Dark


The Benefits
There are a few benefits of going dark as the months grow colder. During the summer, all that time spent outside soaking up the sun is unfortunately damaging to our hair. Whether it’s dried out or frizzy, giving our hair some R&R is always a good idea. By going dark, you give your hair a whole new look, and have the opportunity to revamp your hair’s health. Dark-colored hair will look a lot healthier in regards to volume, richness, and shine. You’ll have a new edge with your depth and dimension that you may not have had before. The upkeep of your roots will also no longer be a problem, which gives your hair a break from dyeing and upkeep with the lighter colors. It’ll be a refreshing break for your locks, leaving them to shimmer in all your cute fall photos.


Maintenance Tips
The best practice for starting out is never straying more than two shades darker than the color you currently have. We have several services at Salon James to help you relax and get the best hair treatment out there. Once you’re happy with the shade of your color, it’s important to set up a routine for your hair care to help keep the color for as long as possible. You’ll need to cleanse your hair with a moisturizing shampoo to remove build up, and then start implementing a shampoo with the desired pigment fused in to help with the color upkeep. Try washing your hair once or twice a week to help with the color fading.

At Salon James, you can come to us with whatever color you want for your hair, and we’ll have you leaving with exactly what you envisioned. For more information on our services and how we can help you look and feel your best, you can visit our website or give us a call at (225)-636-2220 today!

Ways To Protect Your Hair In The Summer

Salon James Summer Hair

With sun-kissed skin, days spent at the beach, and plenty of opportunities to show off your style, summer is a season enjoyed by many. Your hair needs special care year-round, especially during these summer months of intense heat. Follow these tips and tricks from Salon James to keep your hair sleek, shiny, and healthy!


Moisturize Like There’s No Tomorrow
The most important thing you can do is moisturize your hair to keep it from drying out. With all of the sweating and swimming in the pool you may be doing, your hair can be severely damaged from the sun, chlorine, and salt. No one wants their hair to be dry, frizzy, and breaking from lack of moisture. We recommend implementing a spray made from water, avocado oil, and aloe vera juice into your haircare system whenever you need a little boost of moisture.


Never Skip Conditioner Days
Conditioning your hair is extremely important as you’re fighting against the sun’s natural heat wherever you go. If you’re looking to stray away from using chemicals in your hair often, you can try mixing apple cider vinegar with water to create a natural conditioner. Implementing coconut oil or shea butter after washing your hair will also help de-frizz and moisturize your hair, leaving your hair smooth and shiny.


Sunscreen Is Your Friend
There are some shampoos that are infused with UV protection, but to make sure that your hair is getting the ultimate protection when you’re outside, simply run your hands lightly through your hair after you’re doing applying sunscreen to your body. It gives your hair a little oomph and keeps it from drying out and breaking from the sun’s harsh rays.


Turn The Heat Down A Notch
Because you’re already trying to fend off the natural sun’s heat, it’s usually a good idea to cut down on the use of blow dryers and straighteners/curling irons during the summer months. Yes, that may cause some inconvenience if your hair is hard to work with, but we guarantee that your hair will be thanking you for taking a break from all the harsh heat it’s receiving. Try embracing the natural look every once in awhile!


Loose Hairstyles Are The Best Hairstyles
Because you may be experimenting with taming the wild hair during the summer, loose hairstyles are the best hairstyles. It’s a great way to control the frizz and a hair that has a mind of its own without heavily relying on using harsh heat everyday. Loose braids, ponytails, and buns are easy, casual, and beautiful looks that anyone can pull off, all while being kind to your hair. Be careful to not pull them too tightly, as hair is prone to breaking the tighter you pull your hair.


At Salon James, we believe that you deserve the best care possible, both in and out of the salon chair. For more information on what can do to help you look and feel your best, you can give us a call at (225)-636-2220 or visit us today!

Massages 101: The Different Styles & Their Benefits

Lbbnovewhvvdcycm5ttffjubqsvybm9xgjhs ajcmqh  btpas0 07ucfdrwt4f3gsyrjrj0bd10scfw5pq0whqmovjzi2igzsajjzek3to5ebvoenawgtsuqfc rnoabh2xfubz

“Ten thousand years will give you such a crick in the neck!” the Genie exclaims as he’s released from his lamp in the beloved Disney Classic Aladdin. Children watching this scene have a laugh, but adults who suffer from pain and stiffness know all too well the reality of living life with tense and sore muscles. Luckily for us, there are different forms of massages designed specifically for treating different pains and ailments in the body. 
 
Chair Massage
At Salon James, we offer chair massages as one of the many options as part of our spa services. Chair massages mainly focus on the back, arms, neck, and shoulders. For a less intense, targeted massage, we suggest the chair massage if you’re looking to loosen up your muscles.
 
Swedish
One of the most popular massage techniques, the Swedish massage, uses long, smooth strokes, kneading motions, and circular movements on the superficial layers of your muscles. Masseuses use massage lotion or oil, and can be very gentle and relaxing. The main goal of the Swedish massage is to relieve tension in your muscles, and can be beneficial as part of a rehabilitation program after an injury.
 
Hot Stone
With hot stone massages, heated, smooth stones are places on acupressure points on the body to warm and loosen tight muscles and balance energy centers in the body. Hot stones can be used as massage tools by the massage therapist, or they can be left in place. With the warmth comes loosened muscles, making for a comforting and relaxing experience.
 
Deep Tissue
For those who suffer from painful or stiff “trouble spots,” the deep tissue massage is highly suggested due to the slow, deliberate strokes that targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. The massage therapist uses slower friction techniques across the grain of the muscle to relieve chronic patterns of tension. Deep tissue massages are best for those with repetitive strain on their muscles, postural problems, or those recovering from injury. 
 
Reflexology 
Reflexology is the application of pressure to your feet, hands, and ears to affect different parts of your body to overall promote health and well-being. It’s been known to reduce pain and psychological symptoms, such as anxiety and depression, and enhance a person’s relaxation and sleep cycle. 
 
Bodybraison
This body experience is offered exclusively at Salon James. What starts out as a Swedish massage turns into a life-changing experience with Dr. Lili Fan’s body microdermabrasion formula, created just for Salon James. Dr. Fan’s creation is a probiotic-peptide microdermabrasion formula that will make a visible difference in your skin, and will leave it feeling great too!
 
Different kinds of massages give different benefits to the body. It’s important to listen and take care of your body. Come into Salon James and let the professionals help you feeling good as new. For more information about our services, please visit our website or give us a call at (225)-636-2220 today!

The 411 On Dyeing Your Hair A Pastel Color

T0kgh4ke cglqtqxkxeec3mvthpr7ts9mv5gjicov8mlr42x7pygfsmk11hjf3lpvlgv7wvmqvv d3x4gvtbww rek5u4s7rjqblc9jx eynzewtro3aubwblohx884ibllicg8g

Colored hair is in. From those soft pinks to the light blues and purples, these hues have made their way into both women’s and men’s hair seen all over social media. From famous celebrities to famous Instagrammers, we’ve seen people rocking the trend, and perhaps you’ve been thinking about it yourself. Here are some tips if you’re thinking of dyeing your hair a pastel color:

Your Original Hair Color Matters
This isn’t just about whether or not you can pull of the pastel look. Your original hair color- whether you’re a blonde, brunette, redhead, or somewhere in between, will affect the process and overall look of your pastel makeover. For blondes, you’ll have an easier time dyeing your hair since the pigment of your hair is already light. Unfortunately for darker hair, it will be a greater venture, including bleaching your hair, to get your pastel color to show up.

Get Ready For Some Hair Maintenance
Your original hair color not only affects the dyeing process, but the upkeep of the color as well. If you have naturally darker hair, your touch ups will be more frequent with the bleaching and hair-dyeing treatments if you’re serious about having your pastels pop. Whether you have on section of your hair pastel, or a full head, the amount of times you wash your hair can also affect the color, and how much it fades. Try some hair products specifically used for color protection to help make your hair care routine easy and stress-free!

Sometimes Less Is More
We’ve seen the pastel look ranging from a fun twist on the ombre style to a whole-head hairdo. It’s important to take into account the two tips above, and it may help you make your decision on how much of your hair you want to be pastel-colored. Sometimes, less is more, especially if you’re testing the waters. Try doing a “peek-a-boo” strand in your under layers of your hair to see what color you like best, or perhaps the tips of your hair will work best instead of dyeing all of your hair.

At the end of the day, it’s all about what you want as an individual, and what will work best for your lifestyle. Trust the professionals at Salon James to give you the best experience and have you leaving satisfied with your haircut and style. For more information on our services, you can visit our website or give us a call at (225)-636-2220 today!

2017 Spring Fashion Week Hair Trends

Spring fashion week brings us not only the latest clothing trends to look forward to, but offers insight into hair trends as well. Check out the noteworthy hairstyles that have made their debuts at the Paris, Milan, London, and New York 2017 Fashion Week runways.

Oirob9ihxadiaanjuoncheiscxcl0d02dmvse xgeqvk7dkn7cqygeenuor dnyem4c9ol0ogw07fqt4jghfefheioz3ekikrvdl9vlx5ren1jxz7t07iupvtcncbx43wm9vrbt3
Boho Braids
Models walked down the Missoni runway sporting a very 60’s/70’s hippie inspired hairdo. Fuss-free straight hair was made more interesting with accents braids. Throw these tiny braids into your down-’do for an instant chic, fashion-forward upgrade.

Wet Hair Look
Models on several runways displayed slicked-back locks that appeared to be wet. This look is achieved with a lot of hair gel, and is best reserved for statement-making occasions rather than everyday wear.

Hibv85 zezd8ssl2rxpyv3k1tx3qqg7zqmmiykow qprza3uas9dd5djrs0wtu ovmvjikudqjo8jk5qoedtdu19le ihymvybjphb2boecsvjdtj3solhoho1wjyqndpq0iz0uu
Sleek Blowout
This one never goes out of style. This pretty, feminine look is achieved by giving your hair a deep side part and blow drying it with a round brush to achieve shine, bounce, and ends that are slightly curled. A perfect blowout can be difficult to achieve at home on your own, so make sure to ask your stylist for this finishing touch after receiving a cut and/or coloring service.

Mushroom Cut
A surprise on the runway, Jeremy Scott models brought back an unlikely hair trend: the mushroom cut. Feeling bold enough to try this bowl-shaped bob? Ask your stylist! Expect a lot of upkeep with this one, though.

Low Ponytail
The ponytail has always been an easy breezy hairstyle, and it has never been as fuss-free as it is when it’s worn low and fastened at the base of the neck, as seen on several runways this Fashion Week. This style is simple enough to be worn on a daily basis, or can be dressed up for an evening out with the right accessories, like lacquered hair clips or big, pretty bows.

Bold Color
This trend isn’t exactly new, but Fashion Week has proved it’s still going strong. Models were sporting all-over shades in pastel colors, or pops of brightly colored highlights in shades of blue and purple. A rainbow of bright and bold colors can be achieved on your hair, but it’s best to leave this coloring project to a professional stylist.

2017 Red Carpet Beauty Trends

Don’t you just love awards season? We sure do! It’s so much fun to anticipate who will be wearing who, which new beauty and fashion trends will reveal themselves on the red carpet, and which star will earn the coveted title of “Best Dressed.” Although we ourselves may never get to wear a designer gown or have a famous jeweler loan us a million dollars worth of diamonds to wear for a night, there’s still a way to get a little red carpet glamour in your life. We’re talking about the 2017 awards season hair and makeup trends! Here’s some inspiration for you to request at your next Salon James appointment:

Braided Updo
For the Golden Globes, Lily Collins sported an absolutely breathtaking updo fit for a princess. Her rich, dark locks were expertly piled atop her head with small braids twisted throughout. A formal, elegant style that bucks the long-standing trend of loose, unfussy beach waves that so many celebrities rock on the red carpet. We think this look is perfect for the upcoming wedding season!
80’s Inspired Volume

Yes, hair in the 80’s was more than just big perms. Kristen Bell turned heads with a side-swept lob (long bob) that was notable for its volume. It was “big hair” for modern times, giving a nod to the 80’s without copying it directly or looking too stiff. If you’re not crazy about the waves, still consider the lob cut! It’s universally flattering and less frightening than a bigger chop if you have long locks.

Bold, Deep Lip Color
One makeup trend to stand out on the red carpet this awards season is a dark, bold lip. Kerry Washington rocked a deep plum shade at the Golden Globes, and Priyanka Chopra wowed in a striking oxblood hue. To pull off this look, you’ll want to keep the rest of your makeup simple to allow your pout to pop. Ask your Salon James makeup artist to match the perfect bold lip color for your unique skin tone!

If you want to try any of these red carpet looks, book your hair or makeup appointment at Salon James! We suggest saving a photo in your phone of the look you’d like to recreate to better help our stylists meet your expectations. Give Salon James a call at 225-636-2220 to set up your appointment, or visit our website to book online.

Hair Trends That Will Be Huge in 2017

Like fashion trends, hairstyles come and go. History has seen some great hairstyles throughout the years, many of which continue to be imitated today. The beginning of a new year is a great time to sit down with your stylist to see what the hot new hairstyles are and which of them can work for you. In 2017, make a resolution to try a fresh new look, or update your current look with one of these popular hair trends.

Long Bangs

Bangs that hit right above the eyes are a great way to update your look without losing length to your locks. Bangs that are long and textured are far more versatile than blunt, heavy bangs. You can easily change up your hairstyle from one day to the next with this cut.  

Lots-of-Layers

A shoulder length cut with a lot of layers is a fun and stylish ‘do to rock this year. Medium-length hair is the most popular length among women for good reasons. It's flattering, low-maintenance, sexy and versatile. Bonus: if you hair is already mid-length, you can achieve this update just by having layers added! 

18mp979ww8ettlcexzpqvymxwbifqigmxc ug8fgf3dft01v anjqopykddn7mal7goetmxj7fihbkbiiriwr6sh03x5o tkrcgcjl jacyb5bllrz0bb zxt8vvm ysgzjfo5m0

Bold & Blunt

A bold, blunt bob will make your hair look healthier, stronger and thicker. Most blunt cuts are worn in straight hairstyles to show off the accuracy of lines and sleekness of texture. But that doesn’t mean you can’t style waves for a blunt cut when you are in the mood. This dramatic, angular style, is suited for a wide array of face shapes and hair textures. 

Grown-Out Shag

The shag was the surprising hit haircut last year. But those layers and bangs have to grow out sometime. This year, we'll see the beautiful result of that! With hair that hits just past the shoulders and bangs that are long enough to be split down the middle, the grown-out shag is the haircut to keep an eye on this year. If anything, it's a way to hint at a shag without giving it your full commitment. 

A new hairstyle can make you feel great - like a whole new you. So why not make 2017 the year that you are on the cutting-edge of hair trends and go for it!
