ARE YOU PART OF THE HAIRCOLOUR RE “I’ve been in this industry for over 25 years and INOA is the first haircolour that truly drives traffic! We have been able to attract new clients by offering them an incredible product. To encourage our existing clients to try INOA risk free, we offer them their first INOA haircolour at our regular price. They love the experience so much that they are pleased to pay the extra to achieve the amazing colour results only attainable with INOA!” Shelley Lester with L’Oréal Professionnel

since 1992 Scissorworks & Co, Calgary, AB “With INOA, the cosmetic results of the hair are incredible! But most importantly, it perfectly covers grey hair, even up to 100%. When my clients return, their haircolour has not faded or washed out. I’m not using anything else but INOA–it’s fabulous!”

Larry Gray with L’Oréal Professionnel since 1990 Suki’s, Vancouver, BC “I love INOA’s intense, but natural-looking, pigmentation! INOA preservation of the hair’s natural state, great longevity of colour, and incredible softness. I love working with INOA.”

Jacques Tétreault with L’Oréal Professionnel since 2002 Création Coiffure, Boucherville, QC

OLUTIONARIES

R REVOLUTION YET?

“L’Oréal Professionnel’s marketing efforts for INOA have really had an impact in our salon. There’s simply no need for us to convince our clients to switch to INOA, even if the service is slightly more expensive. Often, the client is asking for INOA. I am proud to offer my clients the professional difference!”

Pierre Henright with L’Oréal Professionnel since March 2010 Zeut Coiffure, Hull, QC “INOA found its way into our hairdressers’ hearts. Our team is excited about this innovative, odourless haircolour. Our hairdressers are passionate about INOA and you can see the enthusiasm in their eyes! A great service and a wonderful product have made INOA a success in our salon!”

Karine & Nathalie Morin with L’Oréal Professionnel since 2008 Le Salon Sugar, Blainville & Laval, QC “With INOA, L’Oréal Professionnel is putting our salon front and centre in the eyes of consumers. You don’t know how many new clients have called us asking for INOA. Not only do these clients love the INOA concept, but they are so satisfied with the result that we are certain that they will never use their old haircolour again! INOA is growing my business and securing a loyal clientele!”

Réjean Roy & Marie-France Vigneault with L’Oréal Professionnel since March 2010 Confidence Centre De Beauté, Sherbrooke, QC

This hair care features the Microcapsules Technology, a revolutionary system that provides your hair with precisely the nutrients it needs—no more, no less. As the hair is dried, either naturally or with a hair dryer, the microcapsules disintegrate and release a dosed selection of essential nutrients. Thanks to Alcove’s customized revitalization, hydration and protection process, the result is beautiful, soft and healthier hair.

“Alcove” immediately calls to mind intimacy, harmony and wellbeing. It represents a place where we feel comfortable and protected. These are the same characteristics that inspired Oligo Professionnel in its creation of an innovative hair protection concept based on microencapsulation technology. An alcove is often rounded, its curves evoking femininity. And like such a haven, Alcove is a line of trusted products, that offers infinitely enriching benefits.

A single product line that meets every need.

rior to becoming a magazine editor, I worked as a fashion model for several years and had the opportunity to be involved in Toronto Fashion Week on a few occasions. My favourite part of this experience was not the actual runway shows, but the frenzy of events that took place backstage. After all, this is where the real excitement happens! I would be in awe of the hairstylists, makeup artists and designers who rushed around pinning hair, touching up lip gloss or altering gowns right up until show time in order to ensure their creative vision was perfect. This year, I attended Fashion Week as a spectator for the first time and, naturally, the best part of seeing the shows was scoping out the latest hair trends for fall. I was amazed at the versatility of style, texture and colours that are reinvented season after season. I especially took note of how well the hair worked in sync with the clothing. After talking to several hairstylists for this issue, I learned that understanding fashion and editorial hairstyling is truly a craft. We rounded up a few veteran fashion show hairstylists to bring you a firsthand glimpse at what it’s like to work backstage, while still balancing life in the salon on p. 56. These are two very different worlds indeed! The editors here at Salon Magazine spent hours poring over dozens of runway shots for our Style Report on p. 50, and it certainly got us talking about how looks have changed and then come back again over the years. If there is one thing we all agree on—hair is one fashion accessory that will never go out of style!

New Talent & Professional

Event is open to all stylists and general public. Must be 16 years or older to attend. If you have any questions please contact your Schwarzkopf Sales Representative or Schwarzkopf Professional at 905.366.8894 All ticket holders will receive a swag bag of products at the door. No refunds allowed.

A MESSAGE FROM CND TO OUR CUSTOMERS We have been listening, and we know that you and your clients love Shellac™, but now that you’re hooked, you can’t find any, and you’re not happy. We deeply regret and apologize for this situation and the inconvenience it has caused you. Let us explain how this happened: • In our 30-year history, we’ve introduced many blockbuster products. The response to them was nowhere near the response to Shellac. • Initial production – twice our largest previous product launch – was gone in three weeks. We realized we had created an industry-changing product innovation but we never anticipated such immediate, overwhelming demand. We quickly understood that this global phenomenon was creating an urgent problem for you and your clients. Your needs are our top concern, and right now, priority #1 is to get you back in business with Shellac. We have already begun to take these actions: • Drastically increasing production • Air shipping lamps from our overseas factory to our distribution center • Simplifying packaging to speed up production time • Focusing on fulfilling current demand before scheduling any new launches. We greatly appreciate your business and thank you for your continued patience and loyalty. With gratitude, John Heffner

recently got a new iPad and upon delivery all of our staff hovered around it “ohhing” and “ahhing” like it was a newborn baby. I can’t help but wonder how the launch of this new technology will impact the salon world? That same week, I was speaking with Joseph Gossen from Star Bédard in Montreal, who razzed me for having a Blackberry instead of an iPhone saying, “I thought you were cool!” I laughed … but at the same time I thought, is he right? iPhones and (predictably) iPads are the most fashionable accessories today. Not just in terms of being trendy, they carry a lot of caché. They function as a delivery tool for the ultimate phenomena—social media like Facebook, Twitter and blogging. It’s changing behavior and communications, and is a major influencer of consumer purchases. But, actually, it’s all about interactivity. And, that’s where the salon industry comes in. We all know the main driver of clientele is word of mouth and now we have the ultimate tool! Bryan Gaum a friend of salon52 on Facebook adds, “An iPad is a great tool for salons, especially those who have salon software programs that run on a Mac platform (a.k.a. salon transcripts). It’s also great for teaching clients how to book online, eliminating clutter from magazines and it’s an amazing portable visual for showing clients styles.” Here are a few other market trends we’re seeing picking up speed. Express services are an area that continues to grow. Nail bars with fast gel services, half hour blow-out services, 10-minute colour and express facials. Many clients want quick services and don’t want to be tied up in a salon all afternoon. On the flip side is the boutique experience. I feel clients will spend more time and money, however, they want a personalized service and an “experience” when they visit a salon. It’s somewhat of a high and low concept; the consumer has a Louis Vuitton bag alongside a cheapy H&M skirt. You can see the yin and yang of today’s trends—the speed of Facebook for interactivity versus a day at the spa. Consumers want both. Check out the salon52 Facebook page and share your thoughts with me.

Matrix is #1, the greatest of all North American hair care brands and rising superstar around the globe. It has inspired me and countless others to think, dream, believe and most of all dare. I am proud to be a part of the culture that recognised hairdresser’s powerful relationships with people and the amazing work they do in salons every day. Matrix encourages hairdressers to stand up and say “I cosmetically and psychologically transform self images and destinies of my fellow human beings, I am a hairdresser”. Wow what an amazing brand, Matrix is not simply satisfied with moving product but rather moving the people that move the product. This is evident each time the Matrix team shares their talent and passion at a show or in a class. Thank you Arnie, Dr. Lew, and every member of the Matrix family.

Imagine… A brand committed to your success. A full range of salon-only, professional products and services. A global network empowering you with pride, conﬁdence, optimism and energy. IMAGINE 100% SUCCESS. ACHIEVE YOUR DREAMS.

WHAT DO MATRIX CONSUMERS HAVE TO SAY: My hair is naturally super curly and dry, so for the past 6 months that I’ve been using Matrix Essentials Curl.life. I see a big difference with the manageability of my hair. When I straighten my hair I like to use the Biolage Thermal Active cream, it makes my hair soft and protects it from the heat of the styling tools. Most of the salons I have tried have been using Matrix products. Everytime, I’ve been satisfied with my cut, color and overall experience. When a salon uses Matrix, it reassures me that I will get great results! Julie Boisvert Montreal, Quebec

I was first introduced to Matrix products by a friend, she recommended I use Biolage Volumathérapie. My hair is limp so I like to use products that give my hair fullness and lift. I love using the Volumizing Shampoo and Mousse because it leaves my hair feeling fresh, full and soft. Everytime I go to the salon I always pick up a bottle of my favorite Biolage shampoo! It’s so affordable and always gives amazing results! Maricela Sorto Mississauga, Ontario

Biáge Silkening Technologies Pro Collagen Rx is a new professional product to help clients achieve silky smooth hair. An alternative to other keratin-based treatments designed to achieve pin-straight results, Silkening Technologies uses a special gel blend of keratin and collagen—instead of heavy silicone-based emollients—making it easy to apply, allowing for superior penetration of a higher concentration of active ingredients, and reducing post-application blow drying and flat ironing time.

The Hard Sell

ith an influx of high-end, “prestige” products in the salon retail sector, knowing how to move those products off of your shelves is invaluable. Brands such as Oribe, Shu Uemura, Unite and Seah that contain premium ingredients and patented technology can retail for anywhere from $20 and up—but price isn’t the main inhibitor to raking in productderived profit in the salon, says two long-time marketing experts for major manufacturers. “Our industry totally underestimates that clients are very willing to pay for a product that will enhance their lives in some way,” explains Marianne Medeiros, director of marketing and education for Schwarzkopf Professional. “I don’t know that customers are that aversive to price,” maintains Minh-Dan Tran, marketing manager at L’Oréal Professionnel. “But knowing the products and presenting them with confidence is extremely important when you are retailing anything—from mass-market to high-end.” The difference lies in the target market, explains Medeiros using SKP’s luxury Seah brand as an example. “I think mass market consumers will indulge and splurge from time-to-time, but I don’t think picking up high-end products is part of their weekly shopping regimen,” she says. “For the typical Seah client, you’re marketing to their needs—value-add, gift with purchase and price point are not necessarily as important.” She adds Seah is positioned as a spatype treatment and is a luxury that people gravitate toward. “Yes, it is an indulgence, but for the right market it’s something that they ascribe to in their day-to-day lives. It’s just the life they lead and the luxuries they’ve become accustomed to.” Tran takes a similar approach when discussing LP’s prestige

salon > september 10

se.s.10.hairlines.3-2.indd 42

brands Kérastase and Pureology, as well as new addition Shu Uemura. “If a salon owner expressed interest in incorporating a prestige line I’d have a discussion with them about the type of clientele that comes into their salon, the needs expressed by that clientele and the services they offer or want to offer,” he says. But Tran also emphasizes that education is just as important as branding. “You have to know the products, you can’t solely rely on the manufacturer. If your product performs and you can talk about it intelligently, more often than not, you’ll find that customers are willing to purchase.” Like LP’s top-line brands, Seah salons are chosen based on a variety of criteria from target-achievement to client demographics. They also appoint Seah ambassadors within that salon—go-to employees, made up of stylists and front-line staff that demonstrate interest in the product and have retail savvy. This person receives the bulk of Seah training and educates their colleagues, explains Medeiros. Tran, who says LP will be introducing sampling to their salons this fall, extends this emphasis on education and service saying, “High- end products have to be accompanied by education. Customers are looking for expertise and recommendations: If you’re paying $150 for colour, you want to protect that investment.” In the end, Tran and Medeiros maintain that if you don’t offer, they won’t buy. Medeiros says, “If the brand is positioned in the right salon, clients will pay. And the worst is that they’ll say, ‘No, not today, thanks.’” Citing a recent LP study Tran adds, “Seventy per cent of clients walk out without a recommendation. But 70 per cent of that percentage would’ve bought the product if they were offered.”

istening to your client may be the most important part of your job as a stylist. We need to understand not only what our clients want, but what they don’t want. When I hear them say that they don’t want frizz, I hand them a brochure on Global Keratin. Clients don’t want stick-straight hair. They want body and movement, but they want their hair to be manageable and controllable in humidity. Our clients are asking for these types of treatments, and it’s our job to tell them about the benefits of the Global Keratin Hair Taming System. Global Keratin is different from other products because it contains the active ingredient Juvexin—the only protein scientifically proven to protect and restore hair back to its youthful state. The after-care products from Global Keratin Hair Taming System also contain Juvexin, so as you wash your hair you are actually redepositing

A formula for every hair-type! Light Wave:

for clients who want to keep their natural wave but wish to eliminate frizz and cut their styling time in half

Curly:

for those who want a sleeker look to their hair while making it soft, shiny, smooth and frizz free

that protein back into your hair for long-term protection. The treatment lasts about three to five months and my clients book their next appointments before they walk out of the salon. I’m booked a year in advance for the Global Keratin service! My advice to any other stylist looking to offer Global Keratin in their salon is to make sure you do a great consultation. You’ll find that many of your clients have a need and desire for the Global Keratin service and that price is not an objection. I have had clients say that they finally have the hair they should have been born with. I’ve had a client with extremely unruly hair that was so overwhelmed by the results that it brought her to tears If you ask me, it makes people’s dreams come true. —Leslie Correa, Salon Owner & Global Keratin Specialist Please call TBBS for more information about our Look & Learn and Certification Classes being held on: • Mon Sep 13th • Mon Oct 18th • Mon Nov 15th • Mon Dec 6th Contact your distributor today to schedule a visit from a Global Keratin Professional.

Backstage Pass Top hairstylists divulge what goes on behind-thescenes at fashion week and what it takes to thrive as a session stylist By Emily Gravelle

s models walk flawlessly down the runway, it’s almost impossible to imagine the long hours of preparation and the team of beauty professionals whose hair and makeup tricks complete the glamourous looks. Working backstage as a hairstylist is certainly different than salon life. Collaboration on a desired look between the designer and the beauty team starts weeks in advance, while models begin having their hair teased or blown-out at least six hours before they strut their stuff down the runway. Daniel Fiorio of Salon Daniel has been the lead hairstylist for Toronto designer David Dixon for several years. He says in order to be successful in the fashion circuit one has to understand what session styling is all about. “Everyone is trained to cut and colour, but stylists who want to work on big fashion shows really need to absorb what is currently happening on the runways and understand every detail,” says Fiorio. Fellow stylist Brennen DeMelo of Brennen DeMelo Studios and artistic ambassador for major manufacturers L'Oréal Professionnel and Rowenta Beauty, has worked backstage at countless Toronto Fashion Week shows and agrees. “You have to be able to differentiate between fashion hair and salon hair. Often hair can be overdone for the runway and look really stiff. You need to be able to understand that kind of styling,” says DeMelo.

Achieving this knowledge begins with understanding the many degrees of texture in order to pull off a successful runway look. This has always been the case for Damien Carney, who has been an accomplished hairstylist for over 20 years. His first show ever was for Paul Smith in Paris where he learned a major lesson in hair surfaces. “It was interesting to see how certain textures could look stale and others look incredibly new,” says Carney. “It’s not just hair on the

head, it’s hair that compliments makeup, wardrobe and the direction of that particular show.” For Chad Taylor from Moods Hair Salon in Vancouver, getting his start was all about being in the right place at the right time. “The first runway show I worked on was for the label Heatherette. I was working with MTV in Vancouver while doing a competition when I met them,” says Taylor. “They asked me to work with them on their next runway show and that was a really exciting opportunity.” Since then Taylor has worked on over 150 shows in both New York and Paris. New York-based hairstylist Nicholas Pagano partnered with fashion hair brand Unite over two years ago and has had the opportunity to work

backstage at both Miami and New York Fashion Week. “When the model hair test begins, that’s when you realize doing a great style is not enough. You have to provide an entire package because there are a lot of people giving opinions and the hairstylist is the one to create balance,” he says. This past season, he was the team leader at Miami Fashion Week where he had to decide which Unite products would work best to create the hairstyles, as well as prepare the team for the day of the event. “The shows in Miami were intense because all the designers shared models,” says Pagano. “The difficult part was creating a hairstyle that would work for each designer and successfully change the entire look within three minutes.”

Possessing the Power

Of course, no amount of planning can prepare for some of the hiccups that can take place backstage. It’s often a scene of chaos where models, makeup artists, designers and hairstylists are all rushing to be on cue. Three seasons ago, DeMelo was set to style the hair of Canadian top model Taryn Davidson who would open a show in Toronto—only she was in the middle of playing a hockey game when beauty preparations were taking place. “Her agent Elmer Olsen pulled me aside and explained that this model loves playing hockey and wouldn’t be arriving until 10 minutes before the show started,” says DeMelo. “Well, she didn’t arrive backstage until three minutes before the show and there was a crowd of hair and makeup artists waiting for her.” As DeMelo worked his magic on the hair, three artists applied the makeup. Just over 180 seconds later Davidson was ready to step out onto the runway. “I was literally running to the stage with her and pinning her hair right up until the last second and in the end she looked absolutely flawless,” he says. Carney remembers working on a show where the lead stylist showed up late. “The styling team continued to work on the hair because the show must go on, but the designer still freaked out,” says Carney. “Stress and tension took over, but at the end of the day it all worked out.”

Working backstage at a major fashion event certainly has its rewards, but it takes a visionary artist to successfully convey the mood and feel set forth by the designer. “In general you’re a magician. You can make any hair tell the story; you have to work with fine hair, short hair and rarely are you presented with the ideal hair,” says Carney. “You have to be skilled in many areas in order to bring the vision to life. I’m known for texture and editorial edge, but I can also do polished, simple, natural looks, too.” Narges Ehsani, esthetician at Tips Nail Bar and Toronto Fashion Week makeup artist has watched the show grow over the past few years and begin to obtain international recognition. Her main piece of advice for those wanting to get involved is it’s crucial to be passionate. “It’s all very hard work. The days are long, tiring and it can be stressful at times. But it’s worth it,” she says. DeMelo is working with his agent in New York to set up shows for New York Fashion Week. “It’s tricky for Canadian artists to really break down those barriers, but I’m ready for the next big thing in my career,” he says. “Even if I have to go there and assist backstage, I don’t mind because that is how I started here in Toronto. Working your way up to the top is a strategy that keeps you driven, motivated and doing good work.”

Happy Half Century! Redken celebrates 50 years of breakthrough education and innovation

1960s Actress Paula Kent took $3,000 earned from a beer commercial and partnered up with her stylist and friend Jheri Redding to form hair care manufacturer Redken.

1970s Paula Kent secures UK legend Vidal Sassoon to travel around the US on behalf of the brand. In 1974, Redken would also host its first educational symposium with over 500 salon professionals in attendance, an annual tradition that carries on today internationally.

1980s In 1983, Redken introduced Shades EQ Equalizing Color Gloss and continued to expand the Extreme hair care collection products.

2000s

In 1993, Kent sold her company to L’Oréal. Redken moved to New York in 1996, added “5th Avenue NYC “ to its name and solidified its position as a creative company at the forefront of fashion.

▼

The millennium brought new product innovations and a partnership between Redken and session stylist Guido Paulo— creative consultant working fashion weeks worldwide.

1990s

n 1960, American actress Paula Kent and her personal hairstylist and friend Jheri Redding combined their names and partnered up to create what would become internationally renowned hair care company Redken. The three products that started it all were a shampoo that didn’t lather named Amino Pon, a concentrated protein solution named PPT S77 and a wave set you had to add water to. Based on the science of protein and pH, Redken’s focus was to educate stylists on the formulations behind the products, so they in turn could teach clients and retail products within the salon, a revolutionary idea at the time. Kent says, “The Redken salons knew more, they knew about the structure of the hair and how the products were working, and that made them better.” She also always upheld that Redken should remain a professional-only line. Enduring 20 some odd lawsuits, Kent always had a no-nonense, cut-them-offimmediately policy when it came to diverters. Terry Ritcey, who has worked with the brand since 1980 and been the national education director for the past eight years, describes the continuing philosophy: “When you successfully grow people, you can successfully grow your brand. It’s helping hairstylists see their business as a business.” This almost familial connection with the hairstyling community through annual educational symposiums and direct involvement of manufacturer and distributors alike developed into a cult following and gave birth to the term “Redkenites.” No one exemplifies this idea of growing alongside the brand more than Ann Mincey. Starting out as a receptionist at a friend’s Redken salon, she unassumingly climbed the corporate ladder all the way up to VP of global communications. Mincey, who started wellness seminars with Redken in 1977, says, “The whole message has been about taking care of yourself first and having that energy, capacity and endurance to pass it along to your world.” Today, Redken remains in salons and only continues to grow. For a full lesson in Redken’s history see the timeline shown at left.

By 10 p.m. things really heated up when the team of Sebastian hairstylists, models and DJ Z-Trip then made their grand entrance for a high-energy hair show that was broken into three segments: texture, voluminous and vibrancy. Janine Jarman, recognizable from TV series Shear Genius, styled hair during one of the segments. “Shaper was the can of hairspray that you could actually turn upside down. Women started flipping their hair over and spraying it and this really made people look differently at the whole way hairspray was used,” she said. Fellow Shear Genius alumni, Amy Michleb from Kenchii, was invited as a special party guest. “I was in total awe of the finer details such as circus acts that took place between the crowds during the event,” says Michleb. The Sounds played a few of their hits for the crowd and the party kept on going until the wee hours of the night. “This is a celebration unlike anything I've ever seen before,” said one of the party guests.

i tt i n g d o w n i n a room with John Paul DeJoria is like coming face to face with hair royalty. Having achieved the utmost success through his company John Paul Mitchell Systems (JPMS) and landing the number 212 spot on Forbes magazine’s most recent World Billionaire list doesn’t stop this man from continually taking giant strides to make the beauty industry—and the world—a better place. Thirty years ago two friends had a vision and $700 in their pockets. DeJoria and hairstylist Paul Mitchell wanted to found a company for hair care professionals and educators that would provide successful tools and a revolutionary new

AWAPUHI The latest line from John Paul Mitchell Systems comes in the form of eight luxury products called Awapuhi. The main ingredient comes from the Awapuhi ginger plant, which moisturizes skin and hair. JPMS established a sustainable solar-powered Awapuhi farm in Hawaii nearly 30 years ago. The extraction method of the plant allows the most lipid-rich part of the root to bind to the hair shaft. Awapuhi also contains a blend of Keratriplex that penetrates, repairs and seals damaged hair. Derived from New Zealand sheep’s wool, KeraTriplex is almost identical to the protein found in human hair.

styling method: hair sculpting. Fast forward to 2010 where the brand has annual salon retail sales approaching $900 million and produces over 90 products. DeJoria is quick to share his motto: “success u n s h a r e d i s f a i l u r e .” H i s countless philanthropic efforts have had a huge impact on the brand and various regions around the world. In 2004, DeJoria joined Brad Pitt and Nelson Mandela to become a patron of the Mineseeker Foundation. In 2005, he cut off his signature ponytail on the Leeza at Night show to raise $50,000 for the Red Cross Tsunami Relief Effort. “Our entire Tea Tree product line is carbon neutral and we plant more trees in North America

than all the carbon we use in [producing] the entire line,” adds DeJoria. When not focusing on his work, DeJoria steers the company according to its original vision. Regardless of hugely profitable offers from public corporations to purchase JPMS, he refuses to sell the company because of his initial vow to stand by t h e p r o fe s s i o n a l b e a u t y i n d u s t r y. S i n c e n o p u b l i c corporation can guarantee it will market the products exclusively through salons, for DeJoria selling is simply not an option. “I own the majority of the company and put it in a trust that lasts 360 years,” says DeJoria. “JPMS will be in the hair care industry forever.” S

A: It was 1976, and I started working with GQ magazine. They would send me in as a replacement when someone would get sick or couldn’t make it. I remember getting to work with Francesco Scavullo that way. I could style up to four top girls in one day—and that was big. Q: Who were you most star-struck to meet for the first time?

A: Way Bandy. He was the biggest makeup artist in the world; he was just amazing. I remember he came up to me at Studio 54 and told me I had a great nose (laughs).

Q: How have you grown as a hairstylist over your 30-year career?

A: When you’re constantly working and you truly love what you are doing, you discover new ways of innovating and pushing yourself.

Q: What's your wildest party story? A: From 1988 to 1993 (laughs). Q:

What's your philosophy or motto as a hairstylist?

A: I always try to make a woman look beautiful, sexy, extravagant and a little exaggerated. I love the oddness in things. The one weird thing about a person’s hair is what makes it great. In every one of my hairdos there’s always one hair out of place…unless I am deliberately going for perfection. Q: Tell us a few of your most memorable moments working with celebrity clientele.

A: One of my favourite celebrity moments was when I worked with Sophia Loren at the Ritz Hotel in Paris in the mid 90s. It was so amazing

just to meet her and to give her my signature style. I gave her lots of hair and she loved it. I also loved working with Virna Lisi, the Italian movie star, for Vogue Italia. There’s a great picture of the two of us, where I’m holding a big can of hair spray. I also loved working with Barbra Streisand for Vanity Fair.

Q: Can you tell us about your first project with famous photographer Richard Avedon? A: It took me awhile to really get some great breaks. I had been in New York for three years, and one day Richard Avedon was looking for a new look for Self magazine. They called me because they wanted someone young and fresh, and I guess I was young and fresh back then, so I got the job.

Q: What's your bestkept hairstyling trick or secret?

A: No secrets,

especially since Oribe

se.s.10.profile.3-4.R2.indd 69

Hair Care came out. I’m completely exposed. I’m like the masked magician who comes on TV and tells you all the tricks. I learned a great lesson from a wonderful agent, Omar. He said, “The more you share, the more you grow.” My dad also told me to never say no… never say you can’t do something. He said that somehow, by trying really hard and having confidence, it will come out your way. A lot of my work is about just trying it my way. It’s about that confidence.

Q: What are the top four lessons you’ve learned over the past 30 years in this industry?

A: Stay true to yourself. Stay humble. Stay interested. And, above all, stay passionate. Q: What is your proudest accomplishment and why? A: There have been many, many highlights.

Certainly something I am most recently extremely proud of is the Oribe Hair Care line. In a sense, it’s my 30 years of experience in a bottle.

Q: What made you decide to start your own product line?

A: Through the years you learn to mix products. I’ve always been a product snob. I learned to combine things in my own way and always wanted to have the opportunity to work with chemists to find the right balance. The opportunity came up with the right partners and it was the right time in my life. Q: What are your future plans?

A: The future for me is all about Oribe Hair Care. My aspirations for the line are to continue developing and making products that are modern but with a nod to the old

world. Products that will take us through the next decade with style and make it easier for hairstylists. I also want to meet more hairstylists. I’m enjoying being exposed to so many types of wonderful people. On the editorial front, I’m doing my best work now, so I want to continue working and trying new things, creating new styles and just evolving with fashion.

COLOUR

TRUE COLOURS

This season’s top three hair colour trends + the latest launches

RICH REDS

POWER PIGMENTS as seen on...

LYDIA HEARST ON THE COVER OF VIXEN MAGAZINE

THE RUNWAY OF CYNTHIA ROWLEY F/W 2010-11 SHOW

trend defined... Primary colours like blue, green and yellow have been making peek-a-boo appearances on the international hair trend scene. Moving away from the 80s punk movement of all over pure pigment colour, for 2010 it’s all about strategic placement and unique colour combinations.

colour cocktail... At the Cynthia Rowley F/W 2010-11 show a textured ponytail was accented with the striking contrast of artificial coloured hair extensions blended seamlessly for a modern twist. A team of Wella Professionals stylists led by Eva Scrivo custom coloured the extensions using Koleston Perfect Special Mix shades, which replicated the rich, artificial jewel tones of the collection like emerald, amethyst, lapis, bright turquoise and navy.

as seen on...

AUSTRALIAN SUPERMODEL TIAH ECKHARDT IN NO. MAGAZINE ISSUE 10

THE RUNWAY OF CHRISTIAN CHENAIL F/W 2010-11 SHOW

trend defined... The trend for reds this season has two extremes ranging from a bright yet soft copper hue to a deep, pure red. Think Jessica Rabbit meets Ginger of Gilligan’s Island. No matter what route your client wants to go, the key for both of these looks is dimension with multitonal hues throughout. Have fun and mix it up!

colour cocktail... Michelle Oliver, technical advisor for Schwarzkopf Professional, says both of these looks can be achieved by using the new Igora Color Gloss. To achieve the deep, rich red hue she suggests Color Gloss 6-8 (dark blonde red) partly intermixed with 7-7 (medium blonde copper) to help create a more rustic red tone. If your client prefers stop-traffic reds then explore the creative options by also mixing in Color Gloss Red Spark. The classic ginger tone, on the other hand, could be achieved by using Color Gloss 7-7 (medium blonde copper) and 8-5 (light blonde gold) together to create a softer copper tone. For a much more intense result try adding Color Gloss Orange Glow to the mix.

PURE BLONDES

WHATS NEW?

as seen on... Wella Professionals Koleston Perfect Special Blondes

THE RUNWAY OF PRABAL GURUNG F/W 2010-11 SHOW

THE RUNWAY OF THE BLONDS F/W 2010-11 SHOW

trend defined... Blondes are taking the purest form these days. The trend for this colour family ranges from high-lift cooler hues to a warmer, more golden effect. The essential lesson here: blonde is back.

colour cocktail... Rodica Hristu, North American Goldwell guest artist, suggests for the icy blonde look, a combination of Goldwell’s 12BS and/or 12BM and New Blonding Cream-Ash with 12 per cent developer to give the strongest, clearest lift and tone all in one step. For the warmer blondes if only four levels of lift are required, Hristu suggests the warm shades from 11 series HiLift Blonde. If five levels of lift are necessary, choose one of the recommended warm shades from 12 series Ultra HiLift Blonde. Anything above five levels of lift requires the use of high performance pre-lighteners like Silk Lift or Oxycur Platin for a two-step procedure followed by a Colorance overlay or a Topchic glaze. For extra lift, vibrancy and reflection, consider the addition of Blonding Cream. salon52.ca

se.s.10.colour.3-2.indd 71

Did you know that more than 50 per cent of all colour services are in the blonde arena? Introducing an expansive palette of blonde shades that offer high-lift and gentle conditioning for smooth results. This permanent crème colour contains Triluxiv Plus technology, which delivers clear blonde hues and the ultimate in protection through its 38 per cent lipid formulation. Alongside these five new shades, Wella is also introducing a colour brush with longer, softer bristles specially designed for the three new Special Blonde services—Blonde Impact, Blonde Impression and Blonde Infusion. Info: wellausa.com

Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Color Gloss For clients who want to experiment with colour but don’t want to commit, this new semi-permanent crème gel formula can be the perfect service offering. With 19 shades to choose from (natural, fashion and catwalk), this colour service lasts up to 15 washes and gives up to 40 per cent white blending. Use colour straight from the tube (sans developer) and let the Chroma-ColorTechnology get to work restoring hair’s softness, vibrancy and shine. Info: schwarzkopf-professional.ca S

Rock Candy Rasa Jurenas chats about her C21 Master Colourist collection

By Rasa Jurenas as told to Melissa Brazier

s soon as I heard that there was going to be a new colour category I began to come up with a concept. This collection is very mythical, youthful and vibrant; a mixture of cotton candy and rock’n’roll. The first piece to fall into place was the cords from the electric guitar. I loved how I could wrap it around the body and neck and make it look dimensional and bold. I started off using a smokey grey background, but when I started to use vibrant colours in the hair and black props and clothing, I thought to boost the overall look with splashes of pink. For this collection I created a colour palette that ranged from a cool tone on tone blonde with a star panel of strawberry wash to a mystical brown dimension with copper, violet and gold tones throughout. It was all about being creative and thinking of unique shapes and patterns in the hair. I do these collections to challenge myself and to see what I can come up with next. S

Selling Point W

hether you’re practicing nail bar mixology—customizing polishes and naming them after clients like Tips Nail Bar in Toronto—or scooping up new and hot services like Minx or CND’s Shellac, it’s important to keep your bread-and-butter clients interested. “People keep coming back because they like the service the salon offers,” says Tami Chu, co-owner of Tami-Beauté des ongles in Montreal. But just because they like your service, doesn’t mean you can take their regular business for granted. “In my culture, when you have a guest in your home you make them feel wanted,” says Amy Nguyen, owner of year-old Vancouver salon Socialite Nails—whether it’s through offering a sympathetic ear, remembering kid’s names or offering just the right service. “One of my strongest selling points is that I don’t offer acrylic at all. I don’t have to worry about those fumes,” says Nguyen. “It’s targeting a specific client and providing a spa experience without the spa rules and prices.” Chu remembers favourite colours and suggests products the client can use at home “to enhance

salon > september 10

se.s.10.nails.3-1.indd 86

the service received in the salon.” She also stays on top of the latest products and colour collections, letting clients know about new items instead of shelving and forgetting. Nguyen also suggests you wear the colours yourself, and send out e-mail newsletters to let clients know the collections are in. Targeting your upselling approach leads to a more personalized experience. “When I upsell my waxing, I sell my staff, saying things like ‘she’s known for her Brazilians,’ or ‘she’s quick and professional,’” Nguyen explains. “And if we’re talking retail, I might get them to try on a pair of Haviana flip-flops with Swarovski crystals to show off their pedicure.” But Nguyen’s boudoir photo shoots are her biggest investment in preventing client boredom. “I’ve partnered with a local photographer who specializes in pin-up style photos. We do hair, makeup, mani-pedis, have wine and appetizers and the client gets a private photoshoot as traditional or racy as she wants,” she explains. “We’re not just making clients look pretty—we’re encouraging them to embrace their strength so there’s substance to the service.” S

Suit Your Needs A look at the latest skin-care innovations for a variety of skin types

For the mature client… The effects of stress, pollution, climatic extremes, medical procedures and even diet can reflect on your client’s skin. Over 50 per cent of people consider their skin “sensitive.” Hearing your clients’ needs loud and clear, Dermalogica has introduced the new UltraCalming System to help manage sensitized and inflamed skin. Free of known sensitizers like artificial fragrances and dyes, the retail line consists of a reformulated UltraCalming Cleanser, Mist (toner), Barrier Repair, and two new products: Serum Concentrate and Relief Masque. They all feature the patented UltraCalming Complex, which contains red hogweed root extract, oat kernel extracts, ginger extract and bisabolol. All of these

active ingredients work together to lessen itchiness, redness and inflammation. There are also two professionalonly products available. The first is the UltraCalming Complex, which contains an amped up version of what’s in the retail products, with concentrated amounts of yeast extract, hyaluronic acid, panthenol and caffeine to soothe highly reactive skin. Plus this treatment continues to work even after your client has left. The second is the UltraCalming Clinical Colloidal Oatmeal masque, which contains pharmaceutical grade colloidal oatmeal to help boost the immune function of ultra-sensitive skin. Info: dermalogica.ca

For the eco-conscious client… Green. Natural. Holistic? RVB is taking the “green” trend to the next level with a new line of skin-care products aptly named Holistic Beauty. Based on the principles of Tibetan medicine—beauty is only possible when the body is balanced—the line encompasses the five traditional elements of fire, water, earth, air and ether. Getting to the root cause of skin problems, these treatments aim to re-balance, re-energize and re-educate cells to function properly. This new line is also free of parabens, siloxanes, genetically modified plant extracts, petroleum and

se.s.10.esthetics.3-1.indd 88

La Biosthetique has introduced a line of cell-active anti-aging hair and skin care to help your clients stay rejuvenated longer. Dermosthetique is geared toward clients age 35 and up and includes a range of five new products for hair—Shampoo Actif F and N, Fluide Volume, Elixir Revitalisant and Therapie Anti-Chute—and five new products for skin—Traitement Protecteur and Regenerant, Serum Hydratant and Revitalisant and Therapie Anti-Rides. The plant-derived active ingredients in the formulation are phyto cell extract and glyco cell extract. The former works to protect and keep “mother cells” vital for longer, which are the cells responsible for the reproduction of skin and hair follicle cells. The latter is extracted from bearberry, algae and Indian wood padouk and helps to protect against glycolisation or saccharification of the tissue, which means skin and scalp maintain elasticity.

animal products, silicones, formaldehyde, propylene glycol and isothiazolinone derivatives. But, just because it doesn’t contain these potentially harmful ingredients doesn’t mean your clients will have to sacrifice performance. Active ingredients are carefully selected and derived from areas with controlled self-sown vegetation and harvested only at their vital cycle for peak performance. Divided into four categories—BioEssential, BioHydra, BioCalm, BioAge and BioPurity—there’s something for every skin type on your client roster. Info: intercosmetics.ca S

INTERIORS

Cozy Charm The comforts of home with a flair for French provincial sets the tone for fashionable coifs

ust a few steps down Scollard Street in Bloor-Yorkville, Toronto’s mostcelebrated neighbourhood of style and culture, you’ll find colourist and salon owner Oskar Varela of Oskar on Scollard. As a finalist in the Contessa 21 Salon Interior Design category, Varela says he knew one day he’d own a salon, but didn’t want to use the typically trendy white, metallic and industrial type designs. Together with his wife, professional chef Tanya Da Silva, buying the property was simple because the space prior to owning it was a salon. With its plumbing and electrical circuitry in tact, Varela also saved a bundle by keeping the laminate hardwood floor. And, to create the image of a home away from home, interior designer Dvira Ovadia came aboard. Recognized for her talent in condominium/ nightclub designs, but having never really worked on a salon, she took Da Silva to auctions and home designer haunts to find classic pieces of furniture. Da Silva laughs, “it’s amazing what other items you can find on Craigslist.” The furniture in the lounge has been repainted and reupholstered giving it a romantic feel. Rather than track lighting, chandeliers hang over the cutting stations providing lots of light and giving a feminine touch that the majority of clients— professional women—love. Soothing and textured teal coloured wallpaper makes it easy to wipe off spills or stains, while lavish gold coloured drapes that hang from ceiling to floor keep the design open concept. Varela says, “we can pull the drapes across a ceiling track between the shampoo and cutting area if a client desires privacy.” The stylist stations were built with comfort and functionality in mind. At each station the wall juts out and in behind are glass shelves to hold (and hide) tools and equipment. Also unique is that two chairs are situated per station allowing twice the amount of space between staff and an extra seat if a client brings someone with them. In keeping with the homey feel of the salon, each station has an old-fashioned table with two deep drawers to hold stylists’ belongings and minimize clutter. Varela sums it up best: “I wanted the salon to feel like a home; a warm place where one could forget their daily stress and relax.” S

do with it. Both James Dean and my hero Winston Churchill were only 5 ft. 8 in. and they never let it hold them back. That same friend learned from two image experts at a seminar that half of our visual impact comes from our looks, and the other half from our energy. So maybe you don’t have symmetrical facial features, but you can always work up a great attitude. My idols when it comes to presenting a marvelous image are the masters of cool, Humphrey Bogart and Fred Astaire, and the mistresses of style, Ingrid Bergman and Audrey Hepburn. Bogey and Bergman’s great 1942 classic film, Casablanca, still inspires Casablanca theme parties. It’s not surprising. Forbes magazine has named the designer of Bogey’s tux one of America's top five tailors. And the designer of the Casablanca gowns later won three Oscars for Best Costume Design. But no film stars have ever matched the breathtaking poise and elegance of Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn. They were paired together for 1957’s Funny Face. No wonder the film’s two designers, Hubert de Givenchy and Edith Head, bagged the Oscar for Best Costume Design. Like it or not, your image is a communication tool, as important as everything else in your toolkit. It just makes sense to present yourself like a prospect, and not like a suspect. S

have attended an uncountable number of hair shows over the years, and because I love my chosen profession, I enjoy them all. But in May, I went to the biggest hair show I’ve ever experienced. The Premiere Hair Show in Orlando, Florida, is the largest beauty industry event in the United States. With an impressive talent roster that includes Canadians, it attracts more than 46,000 people from 15 countries. My favourite presentation was given by Redken spokesperson Ann Mincey, the former vice president of global communications for Redken. Her talk, called The Business of Beauty—The Client Experience, posed a very important question. Given the fact that people make value judgments about others within four seconds of meeting them, on what basis are those judgments made? Here’s what the statistics show: words used: six per cent, voice tone: 37 per cent, physical appearance: 57 per cent. Consider that for a moment. It means that when you present yourself to a client—or a prospective client—your physical appearance has more influence over the way they feel about you than anything else combined. There’s actually an Appearance Research Institute in the United States. Its director, Gordon Patzer, has written a book called Looks: Why They Matter More Than You Ever Imagined. In the book, Patzer states: “Almost from the moment of birth, each of us is judged—silently, unconsciously, and nearly instantly—on the basis of our height (or lack of it), our weight and bulk, the shape and symmetry of our facial features, the length and style of our hair, our mode of dress, our grooming—everything that goes into the mix of qualities known as ‘physical attractiveness.’ ” My mother would have appreciated this book. She often said, “Clothes maketh the man.” She insisted on good grooming— clean fingernails, polished shoes and neatly pressed clothes. Thank you, Mum. Of course there’s nothing you can do about your height, but as a friend of mine says, it’s not what you’ve got—it’s what you
