FROM THE MASTER ARTISAN, PK'S UNIVERSE, "The Amazing, Life Changing, Dr. Lew Comes to Paul Kenneth Salon & Spa"

 'Psy-Cosmetologist' is an excellent resource. Its insightful and thought provoking.  Dr. Lew is leading the way with his idea that 'Specializing' is the differential edge to create a successful future.  My staff is so excited to the next level with these creative concepts. A must read that will change your tomorrow.

Dr. Losoncy has been called 'The motivational psychologist for the beauty profession." In his three decades with Matrix he has inspired tens of thousands of hairdressers throughout the world by bringing motivation, encouragement, people skills, teamwork and excellence within a message of humor and optimism.  His energetic message reveals the deeper, human purpose of hairdressing.  Although Dr. Lew's mission is for the beauty profession, his 25 books have sold over a million copies. He is the co-author of "ON," with Matrix's GM Colin Walsh, and his more recent books include, "if it weren't for you, we could get along." "Salon Psychology," "Early poppers: the secrets of self-starters,"

"Having Dr. Lew come into The Paul kenneth Salon and Spa  has been life changing." says Kathryn Merritt

FROM THE MASTER ARTISAN, PK'S UNIVERSE, "To Ombré, or NOT to Ombré"

'Ombre'', The French termed hair trend,

is the hottest trend now! This look has been spotted on many A-list Celebrities…but is it right for you? This look is not for everyone..... Remember, trends come and go, so don’t think you need to jump on the bandwagon to be cool! This trend features darker more natural hues at the base with a gradual dyed lightening at the ends.  

A Few Positives:

1) It has a grown out look to begin with, so maintenance can be stretched out past your average time frame (5-6 weeks).   2) You get that sun kissed, summery, beachy, look any season....creating fun dimension and movement at the stroke of the brush at anytime you want!

4 things to consider before taking the plunge into Ombré:

1) Consider your profession and lifestyle

Not every workplace is supportive to the funky, high contrast bold version of this trend.  A more subtle approach is your safest bet, with tones only being 1-3 levels apart.

2) Shades must compliment your skin tone and wardrobe choicesYou can choose 1-3 shade to create the Ombré effect, but the colors must work with your complexion, and not distract from your clothing.

3)The more creative the color choice…the more maintenance required to maintain vibrancy or depth of the color

4) Make sure you see an experienced professional.  An Ombre' can be beautiful, however an Ombre' gone wrong can be a disaster resulting in a bad look, more investment to fix and/or compromising the condition of the hair.

The Paul Kenneth Professionals are well trained to deliver beautiful, rich Ombre' techniques to all types of hair.  www.pksalon.com call or stop in for a quick, complimentary consultation.

"To Ombré, or NOT to Ombré" written by Master Designer, Amy

FROM THE MASTER ARTISAN, PK'S UNIVERSE, "Red, The 'New' Blonde, What 'Red Hot Red' Do You Want To Be?"

Red Hot Thrill

There's nothing natural about Fiona's dramatic red hair, but what's the point of color if you can't have fun with it (especially if you're a rock star)? She nails this supersaturated shade—created with permanent color—without becoming to cartoonish. This permanent shades will only take on those with naturally light hair. "People are attracted to things that make them stop and look," Paul Kenneth says. "And this is absolutely a showstopper."

Coppery Apricot

Emma puts a vibrant, youthful spin on red, perfectly complementing her aqua eyes. "The lighter your eyes are, the brighter you can go," Paul Kenneth Says. Paul Kenneth believes you should always go for the dynamic red.  This Red can be either soft and pretty or sleek and sexy.  Reds definitely are a higher maintenance color.  If  you are fading quickly, make sure to ask your stylist to deep condition your hair or formulate differently at midshaft and ends. These are two of the biggest reasons for fading, condition of hair and incorrectly formulating.

Strawberry Delight

Skin tone is one of the most important factors to consider when going red, says Paul Kenneth. "Kit's skin is fair, and this strawberry blonde shade has just enough red to work with the pink undertones in her skin," he says. This hint of red tends to look prettiest on women with naturally medium to dark blonde hair.

FROM THE MASTER ARTISAN, PK'S UNIVERSE, The Hottest 'Knot' Look For Long Hair?"

Spring 2013 brings in an easy to do and easy to wear updo.  The Looped Updo is what Salon Owner and Celebrity Stylist see as one of the hottest trends of the season!  With the right products just about any guest can create this look at home.  First a guest needs to have hair that is collar bone length or longer.  So this look is reserved for those with longer hair.  To keep long hair strong and shiny, try Long and Strong by Paul Kenneth Professional along with Spa Md Shampoo and Conditioner.  They add extra strengtheners to help prevent split ends and give long hair lots of body.  Next to create The knotted/Looped Updo, start with dry hair.  Part your hair in the center or into a deep side part, another hot trend for this spring.  Squeeze a small amount of Smoothe by Paul Kenneth Professional, a flexible holding hair groom, into your hands and gently work thru dry hair lightly scrunching with your fingertips as you go.  Although this cream is traditionally used to blow dry wet hair, it also works great to create this new spring 

trend.  You don't need to apply a lot, just enough to add the texture you need to achieve this look.  While the product is still slightly damp, work  hair back into a very low ponytail and secure with a hair band.  Next, form the ponytail into a 

small to medium size loop and wrap part of it around the hair band to conceal it.  Pin loosely into place.  This look is supposed to look a bit undone and imperfect.  For a light hold to keep everything in place and to tuck in loose ends, mist on a few pumps of Flexible Hold Spray.  This spray is easy to work with and gives hair more hold as you layer.
