Beachy Keen
Sure, a Nor’easter arrived on our shores recently, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be prepping to look our beachy best for warm weather’s arrival. With the best in mind, we turn to Bryant Anthony, Artist Designer for Salon Eva Michelle, consistently named Best of Boston.
I’m seeing just a new take on the beachy waves mixed with natural texture included with different braids for a boho feel. Hair color for spring will be soft beige tones. Keeping hair fresh and light and working with a variety of skin tones, beige is a neutral soft color.
Soft contrasting roots are still in for the spring so you can go longer with out retouching your color. It lets your hair grow out with least amount of maintenance.
At home styling should be a breeze! Haircuts are coming back with more structured lines but with softness and layering techniques. Let your hair dry 100% to its natural state, add a heat protectant and curl pieces of the hair and spray with a texture spray.
We found new and current hair care products to check out for spring:
