Building Your Community

ven though it’s been nearly a decade since I worked directly in the non-profit industry, I haven’t forgotten the integral role that fundraising and charitable giving

plays in the success of the various programs and services these organizations offer. In fact, after hearing the stories from beauty industry professionals, it's clear that while your passion for this

industry runs deep, your desire to give back to others is equally as important. Interestingly enough, salons are an important part of communities, big and small. It’s one of the main reasons that many salon owners—including the five we feature in “Making a Difference” on page 58—frequently hold in-salon events to raise awareness and funds for local organizations. But it’s not only salons that are having an impact. Over the years, the professional beauty industry has stepped up and continues to support organizations on both a national and global level. In “The Beauty of Giving” on page 54, you'll see how these combined efforts go a long way to creating a better world for us all, a sure sign that the sum is often greater than its parts. Building a sense of community is also a big part of what we do here at Salon Magazine. Now with Salon Community, you can connect with stylists from across the nation and around the globe, share inspiration and expertise and engage in the conversation. Plus, each month you’ll have the opportunity to enter a photo contest, then vote for your favourites. It’s one more way that we’re keeping you connected! Check out this month's contest theme and more at SalonMagazine.ca/Community and join in!

It makes me very proud to be part of this stunning project.”

Extension of Colour 3 tips for perfecting the art of colouring hair extensions. According to Jenny Romano, technical advisor for Schwarzkopf Professional in Toronto, working with hair extensions not only contributes to her business, but also allows her to establish a strong base of repeat clients. “It gives clients who generally would not be able to have a certain shade the opportunity to get a look they want without damaging their own hair,” shares Romano. Here are three essential tips to keep in mind the next time a client requests a little or a lot of colour in their coif.

1. Discover the Difference

Working with hair extensions means that you don’t have body heat, which contributes to the colour processing. In order to resolve this issue, Dana Lyseng, a platform artist with Wella Professionals, says that working the colour into the hair extension with your hands will help. “It gives you more clarity and room for creativity,” she explains. Unlike working with your client's natural hair, Romano says that hair extensions tend to be dry. To combat this, she suggests applying colour

2. KnowYourType

“Before you begin the process of formulating a colour, colourists should be aware of the type of hair that they are coloring,” explains Romano. In her experience, colouring works best with Remy hair extensions as opposed to full or mixed fibres. Romano also recommends “buying hair from a reputable company that stands by their product,” which is one way to ensure you'll get the best quailty extensions.

3. Testing,Testing,Testing

“When working with extensions, execution is key,” explains Lyseng. “I’ll paint the colour onto a flat, stainless steel trolley, then tape my extensions onto it and paint the colour again on top.” Both Romano and Lyseng agree that test swatches are a must. In fact, when she’s doing a pattern, Lyseng says she’ll often do multiple test swatches to ensure she’s got the right colour formulation. For Romano, using

L’Oréal Professionnel’s INOA Carmilane

extensions offers her a way of creating complicated looks by using multiple shades.

s a l o n march.14

Taking Reds to a Whole New Dimension Available in four different shades, INOA Carmilane offers custom reds. As a result of the Carmilane pigment’s larger size, which comes from combining with other colour molecules, the end result promises a hue that’s no less than half a shade different from the selected pigment. Along with providing total coverage for grey hair, INOA Carmilane, retains its colour because it is secured in the core of the hair’s fibre.

Family Affair Flashback to the defining moments in Toni & Guy’s rich 50-year history. By Yasmin Grothé

oni & Guy—yes, two brothers— loved to praise the family values that helped them set sail in the

fickle world of hairstyling at the beginning of the swinging 60s in London. In fact, their father Francesco, also a hairstylist, introduced his sons, including Toni and Guy's brothers Anthony and Bruno, into the craft of styling and encouraged them to open their own business when they were barely out of their teens. Now, 50 years later, it’s no surprise that Sacha Mascolo-Tarbuck (Toni’s daughter) is at the helm of the Toni & Guy brand as global creative director. Follow the rich history of the brand with the key dates below.

That was our first Lucas Day,” he recalls. “For our sixth year, I’ll be organizing a committee because it’s getting so big,” he says of the event that sponsors a different child each year. With planning beginning months ahead, Rutledge says that letters are sent to potential sponsors. “It’s important to follow up and be persistent,” says Rutledge.

SALON PROFILE

Hot Off the Shelves Turning her passion for haircare products into a business, June Croken tells us how she works it in her one-woman salon.

Mixing vintage and modern furni shings, June Croken incorporates some of her original artwork to create a relaxed and inviting salon atmo sphere.

By Anna Lee Boschetto

s the owner of June Croken Hairdresser on Fire, a salon in Toronto’s trendy Queen West neighbourhood, June Croken understands not only the importance of building a strong client base but also the need for establishing a solid retail plan. In fact, Croken’s one-woman salon operation—she’s the stylist, receptionist and retail sales staff—has meant that her focus on generating retail sales has translated to a healthy salon business.

For Croken, cultivating her salon’s retail capacity means that “you have to love what you

sell”. As a Kevin.Murphy salon, Croken established a solid relationship with the brand, simply because she believes wholeheartedly in the product line. With her salon’s modest square footage, Croken only stocks the back-bar products that she actually sells on her retail shelves. “Always have stock,” explains Croken. “It allows you to seamlessly transition clients from old products to new ones.” When it comes to ringing in the sales, Croken maximizes the time her clients spend in her chair by offering each one personalized hair education. “We talk about the quality of their hair, their needs, how the season affects their hair,” says Croken. “It’s an integral part of the haircare experience.” Along with educating her clients, Croken says that consistently offering samples allows her clients to employ a try-before-they-buy philosophy. “We all have that bin of products in our bathrooms,” says Croken, who is adamant about sending clients home with the right products for their hair. In fact, when guests walk in requesting a specific product—one that Croken believes may not be a good fit for their hair type, style or colour— she’ll offer the requested product in a sample size, along with a product that she thinks may be better suited to the client. “Getting clients to use what’s best for them even once will help their hair,” says Croken, adding that she also sends clients online for additional product Along with her commitment to retailing, the salon owner believes in supporting chaitable causes, including the Movember Foundation. This past year, Croken raised funds for the foundation by wearing a different mustache every day in November. For some, Croken’s philosophy may seem like an unconventional salon approach, but it has been a strategy that has enabled her to keep her salon business on the uptick even during less-than-lucrative economic times. Bottom line? “I treat everyone as I would want to be treated,” says Croken, of her honest, straightforward approach that will undoubtedly keep this hairstylist’s business smoking hot.

Shapiro has outfitted the most famous faces in music with rare sunglasses signed Vintage Frames. And now he is styling their

hair, too, thanks to his latest creative endeavour in Montreal with partner Patrick Gemayel, from the band Chromeo. “My clients and friends are all celebrities to the general population. Many of the world's biggest DJs, pop culture singers and hip hop acts have already been to the place since opening in September,” says Shapiro. Funished in ornate black and gold, with a custom-made Versace barber pole at the door and a marble basket-weave patterned floor, Notorious is anything but shy on style. “We paired up with The Gauley Brothers to make our dreams a reality. By using the finest materials, an over-the-top glamorous design and imported Versace fixtures, we really hit it on the mark," says Shapiro proudly. “Notorious was planned as a franchise. The point was to open this men’s club around the world for men to use as a comfort zone when they travel.”
