This issue our topic of discussion , “Jet Set Hair”! Whether you are taking off or landing, what is trending for this summer hair looks is beautiful soft natural haircolor ,with low maintenance styling. Soft loose curls, soft waves with a wind blown touch also is essential when speaking of texture.

Direct sun exposure during the summer months can cause hair to become somewhat compromised. Consult with your salon professional about receiving a clear shine topcoat in order to add that layer of protection for your hair while funning in the sun. Leave-in conditioners, and Dry Shampoos are key as well.
