We love it when our clients take the time to offer us feedback! Here is a comment that was submitted yesterday in the 'Share your experience' box on our website:
"This was my second time having Brooke cut, color, and style my hair. The first time I came with three different ideas that she morphed into one hair-style. I have received so many compliments from friends, family, co-workers, and fellow students. Coming back I wanted to get relatively the same hair-style and she did an equally amazing job, and I think I like it even better than the first time. 

Her talent as a stylist is complimented with great customer service and conversation. Sitting in her chair feels like I am talking with an old friend.  Great service and even better hair!!  Thanks!!"

Brooke took a photo of Holly's cut and color. Brooke used a chocolate brown hair color on Holly's bottom layers and around her face, and lightened up the top layers with blonde highlights for spring. Holly's cut is an a-line bob, which is a very current look, and it's flattering on most face shapes. For styling tips, check out this recent How to video featuring Katie round brushing her a-line bob.

Round Brush Blow Out

This week's video features Katie demonstrating how she round brushes her angled bob haircut to get lots of volume.

Video: How To: Round Brush Blow Out


To recap, here are some of Katie's tips:
  • Finger-dry your hair until it's 80% dry, and then start round brushing
  • Clip your hair out of the way to start round brushing your bottom layer and work your way up
  • Round brush one section at a time, and hit the cool button on your dryer to allow your hair to cool before removing your brush
  • Work in small sections for the best results
  • At your crown, brush your hair back at about halfway up your part - if you follow the part all the way back it will look flat.
  • Use a good hairspray to hold your look
