Growing Pains: Truth About Growing Your Hair!

February 28, 2013

growing pains

A big trend for fall was the big chop! It seems for the past few years long flowing hair was all the rage.  But hair trends demanded a change, and hence actresses and models started showing off fresh new cuts.  After their seasons wrapped Glee’s Dianna Agron and Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester both went short, as well as Victoria Secret model Karlie Kross (right before the big fashion show). Now maybe you tried the big chop too, and now are filled with big regrets trying to figure out how to grow your hair out fast! Looking up every tip and trick in the book. We came across this great video from PopSugar with tips to grow out your hair, but wanted to get the expert opinion from some of our Beverly Hills stylists. Watch the video and then read their thoughts on the issue of “growing out your hair”.

Expert stylists Sami Eid and colorist Cameron Santiago from the Cristophe Beverly Hills salon weighed in on the above video.

Will any of these tips actually help hair to grow longer?

Cameron: Everything she mentioned is primarily factual.  Yet I believe in a more well balanced diet, even a green lunch needs a portion of protein as well.

Supplements are a great add on. I’ve personally been using Viviscal, for 3 months and notice less shedding.

Sami: There are many claims when it comes to growing out hair, which are a myth, the reality of it is, that there are Genetic Predisposition, Environmental Influence, Nutrition, and Hormonal Imbalance that could be the cause to why we don’t have long healthy hair. Once we assess the problem then we can guide them into the right solutions.

The Brushes Are Back ; Boar Bristle Round Brushes…

January 30, 2013

brushes

Cristophe brushes are a coveted and hot item in the salon. Selling out quickly, they are specially designed to make hair styling simple and exceptional. The handle is designed out of a comfortable cork which is environmentally friendly and renewable.  Soft and durable it is comfortable to hold during blow drying and as it moisture resistant you will be sure to have a firm grip while styling. Boar Bristles are the very best when it comes to hair brushes.  Helping to seal the cuticle for a smooth, silky shine; the bristles also help to stimulate and distribute the hairs natural oils throughout the hair from root to tip giving it a healthy glow. The best part as boar bristles easily release hair, there is no need to worry about breakage.

Cleaning is simple as your remove hair with a wide tooth comb, followed by a gently dipping the bristles into a dilution of warm water and shampoo. Let it air dry and its as good as new!

We hope you are able to pick up one of these great brushes at our Beverly Hills salon soon, call 310.274.0851 to check availability.
