Supporting Trooper Bonnie

Here I am! I know I haven't been on here for quite a while and I'm sorry. I am focused on getting back in the groove of things again. With that said there is a lot going on at Salon Sanity that you  shouldn't be missing out on. 

With October here with a new season change starts to come across our minds to be apart of the excitement. Not only is it October but it's also Breast Cancer awareness month as well, and Salon Sanity has taken it full swing.

We are honoring and supporting a Trooper from Salt Lake who has breast cancer and is on her 5th treatment of 8. She has just recently had to shave her head and is going through a very hard time with bills and staying strong through this trial in her life. She is in her early 30's, married, and has 6 children.

There are many things we have going on for her including a raffle basket, donations, special services where we put some of the money towards her. We would love to see you come in and take apart of this wonderful opportunity. Contact me by phone for an appointment 8016984407

Save Your Hair

Change is coming to the services I provide for my guests. It's a popular trend going around and can save the condition your hair. I'm now offering hair extensions! I am very excited about this and hope you can have fun with it as well. I've been certified in the bead-in hair extensions and I would love to work with you to achieve the look your wanting.

Bead-in extensions are not as damaging as the bond extensions and can last quite awhile if taken care of properly. There are so many ways to have fun with extensions. You can use them to help with thickness in your hair; if you've been experiencing a thinner side on to your hair. Of course you can add them to give you the length you've been desiring. Also one way to use them that you might not have thought of is for a change in hair color as a add-on. 

If you love the look of the peek-a-boo look but your not wanting to color your hair and damage it we can put in a good tone/color for you. This can also go for help with the Ombre' fad that is going on. Adding some beautiful color to your ends through extensions. This way when you're getting your Ombre' you won't have to worry about lightening your ends so intensely.

Another fad that is going on is the pastel colors for some extra fun! The pinks, blues, purples, etc. you can achieve without putting your hair through so much trouble and money. Sometimes in order to have these fun pastel colors you have to lighten your hair as much as possible, but by adding a bead-in hair extension you will save your hair and time of coming into the salon.

Call to make an appointment for a consultation so we can discuss what is best for your hair. I look forward to talking with you about this.

Spring has Sprung Special

Spring finally is here! This weather has just been wonderful and change is filling the air. You're probably been peeking at those spring skirts and shorts, and wondering when to break them out. Looking at yourself you might have been thinking of what happens to all of us at this time of the year what am I going to do with my hair this season?

When it comes to spring and just warmer weather ahead in particular we think of lighter hair color, maybe going shorter with our haircut. It's way fun to change it up a bit once the season comes.

I am starting my Spring Special for all you lovey's who want to change it up, even if it's not dramatic. Receive a Free Designers Cut with any Color service with myself at Me Salon.

We can consult to what your looking for and what's going to look best on you. This special will go through April and May. Schedule an appointment with myself and we will get you looking great!

Blow Drying 101

You know the feeling of leaving the hair salon feeling "Hot"? About 80% of how we like our hair when leaving the salon is based on how our hair got styled. You might of had the hair stylist where you just aren't quite sure what he/she was thinking, or you just love the way they get your hair to look. Well can I tell you a stylist secret to getting the best style... it's all in the blow drying.

How are you doing your hair once you step out of the shower? If you just let it air dry totally you won't get the that extra lift you want or fix those cowlicks. One thing I always do is I do let my hair air dry to about half wet half dry feel. Unless I'm in a hurry I'll start blow drying right out of the shower. If you let your hair air dry a little it can help on preventing heat damage to your hair. Where you want to focus on is your roots. Make sure that you don't let them air dry all the way, because that's where you are going to control on where you get your lift and fullness in your hair. If you have thick hair just worry about getting your roots dry then you can let the mid shaft of your hair to your ends air dry the rest of the way. They will dry faster once your roots are dry.

When drying your hair it's important to use products in your hair before you start. If you are really focusing on the extra lift make sure your using a booster at your roots. If your hair ends are split or dried out, first of all schedule a haircut to get your hair healthy, then use a aragan oil at you ends only. This will also make it easier to maybe round brush your hair because you'll have that extra slip in it.

Blow dry your hair the opposite direction that you wear it. flip sections of your hair up and over and get your roots dry. Make sure your blow dryer is set at the medium temperature setting so your not burning your hair...and make sure you're not holding the blow dryer too close to your head. For cowlicks, just use your brush with your blow dryer and brush and smooth it out with the heat. It's best too to use a heat protectant in your hair before blow drying. How you let your hair dry to going to determine on how your hair will look. Happy Blow Drying!

The Classy Ponytail

There is always those days when we just don't want to mess with on hair at all and it's just being stubborn. We get frustrated on most of these days and still want to look fashionable, but to tired to really do much. Let me introduce you to today's ponytail. 

Ponytails are just wonderful aren't they. Takes are hair up off are necks and it's fast and easy, but there is a way of doing it with style. This way will make you look classy and it's different from your average workout ponytail.

First thing first is to tease your hair at your crown to get a little poof. You don't need to do it a lot and don't make it to solid. You can either have a hair part or use your fingers to sweep back your front. The next step is all with your hands, but your look depends all on how you grab your hair. When gathering up your hair for a ponytail always grab it from the sides towards the back; then while holding your hair in one hand take your other and gather up the hair from the bottom. You can also use a brush, but leave the top alone. The brush is for the bottom and low sides of your ponytail. When deciding on how high go for about 3 to 4 inches off your neck. Too high can yell "recess time with your skip-it" and too low just tickles your neck and is annoying. The low center part of the back of your head is classy and can give you a little flirt with it. 
When securing it don't twist your elastic to tight. It should just be about two times or so. Now , here is the trick to ponytails is how you tighten it. When pulling pull it horizontal then last vertical. This way you get that cute, sassy poof in your ponytail.  You can pull out some fun pieces too around your face or your bangs. For extra class try tying a ribbon around your elastic. Remember practice makes perfect with anything, especially hair.

Loyal Rewards

     New things are happening all over the place it seems like with my business. I am very excited for all of it and to really treat you guys when it comes to getting your hair done with me. Something new I have been doing for a couple months now is I started taking credit cards with Square card reader. I believe most of you have loved this and the convenience of it. I have been improving it and learning for myself about Square and what it all includes for you as guests.

    One thing that I started doing with Square is loyalty cards for you. How it works is it's an electric loyalty card meaning that every time I check you out through Square, which is how I do everything now, it will keep track of your visits. Your loyalty card will be shown to you at the bottom of your receipt. So, I am strongly encouraging you to always get a receipt with me. If you have been with me you know that your receipts are sent to you via email or text. In order to keep track of your loyalty card I would also recommend a receipt for when you use cash as well.

     How the loyalty cards are going to work is when you spend $15 or more you will get a stamp on your card for that visit. Once you have completed 10 stamps you will receive $10 off your next service. I think that you all will love this. Especially how it is electronic so you don't have to worry about finding it every time you come in. Have a good day everyone and don't hesitate to ask for help with any beauty problems you may be having.

New Year for New Hair

It's a new year! I have a feeling that this year has good things in store. As you look at things to improve on in your life one of them might be your hair. I have some tips for you that can really help you get those beautiful locks you've been dreaming of.

Most all of us always want our hair to be healthy. No one likes to have their hair feeling brittle or have it falling out. One thing I'll ask you is how often do you brush your hair? Brushing your hair is very important and should always be done. Before you get in the shower or getting your hair wet; after getting it wet; before bed; and once you wake up. A simple thing like brushing your hair can actually do wonders. Don't be afraid of brushing it because your nervous of it falling out. When you brush you have to be gentle. If you experience a lot of tangles I suggest using a leave in conditioner that you can spray in after washing your hair. A leave in conditioner will help with the tangles and also help with locking in the moisture in your hair. When brushing always start at the bottom (your ends) and work your way up. This will also help with the tangles as well.

One old wise tale you probably have all heard before is brush your hair 100 stokes a day. Well I can tell you that if you want fuller, healthier, and longer hair to start brushing. This wise tale is true! It does help and you will notice a difference once you start doing it for a week or so. I recommend brushing 100 strokes right before bed. Brush in all directions; at your scalp and ends. Not only does it feel good after a long day, but what it does is stimulates hair growth at the scalp. Once you have brushed your hair before bed if you have long hair that is past your shoulders loosely tie it off to the side or loosely braid it. Doing this and then going to bed will protect your hair from getting yanked and pulled as you sleep. Not doing this can affect hair loss. I hope that these tips of mine help you. Let me know what you think and how it works. These are so secrets I do myself and love. Have a good day everybody and Happy New Year!!
