That the color you choose is determined by your particular skin tones and the color of your eyes? How many of you have gone to a hairdresser and come out being happy, only to get home and hate the color? Then you may have gone to a pharmacy, bought an over-the-counter hair color and have had disastrous results? Next call has been to a salon wanting a bad color job to be corrected. Up until this point, you have spent a fortune, and let’s face it ladies, we all know about bad hair days and more, so take the time with your stylist and get it right. When choosing a hair stylist, go in, sit and watch how they work. Do you like the salon, are you comfortable, are clients happy, does the stylist take time with their client? Go in and just have a blow out and get a feel of the place. If you like what you see and feel good about the salon and the stylist, make an appointment and get a consultation and communicate. Tell them your lifestyle, what you do each morning, what it is you are looking for in your hair and color, what products you use, do you travel a lot and if so where, as water is different in every city and like the weather, your hair changes from one place to the other. Lighting is different in your home, bathroom, salon and outdoors. What may look great at home won’t necessarily look that great outside or under bright lights, so make sure to take the time to get to know your stylist, let them know you and work together to ensure the best style and color for you. As highly trained professionals, all at Zapien’s Salon work long, hard hours, attend 3-4 seminars a year, are well respected and should be your best friend. I bet that many of you, like me, have a drawer (or more) of hair products that have never been used, or after one use, are discarded and forgotten. When you go into a salon to have your hair done, don’t you just love the shampoo and conditioners and other products used? I love the way my hair feels at the salon and for days afterwards, so instead of buying endless products at the pharmacy or local store, why not buy them from the salon? The salon products are low in alkaline, sulfur free and more concentrated than store bought products, so they last much longer and at Zapien’s Salon, the products are 80% organic. Zapien’s Salon specializes in color correction, balayage, ombre, root touch-ups, highlights, shadow lights and platinums. Just some distinctions on the terms ombre the style and balayage the technique. The word ombre comes from the French word shadow and is the transition of a lighter shade from a darker shade. Ombre is kind of like color blocking; there are no dark pieces left on the bottom to help keep it natural, just a nice transition between the colors. Balayage comes from the French word meaning to sweep, and when applying color for a balayage, you sweep the color through small triangle sections of the hair onto a board or foil, giving it the natural transition down into the lighter color. In balayage, there are dark pieces left on the bottom to create dimension and a more natural look. This technique looks like natural sun-kissed highlights throughout the hair. The transition is more natural and it is less maintenance than an ombre. Now that you have read these differences, are you ready to spring into color at Zapien’s Salon? Zapien’s Salon has two locations - Lake Oconee and Buckhead in Atlanta. Call 706.453.4213 or 404.231.2040. Find them on the web at www.zapiensalon.com; www.facebook.com/ZapienSalon or email zapiensinfo@gmail.com. Check it out. Make an appointment today and go out with a smile! While the ombre is a beautiful look, it is also something that needs to be done right! A bad ombre can make all the difference, and please don’t try to do it on your own ladies!
