New School Year, New You: Hair Edition

Brooklynne Gibbons • August 2, 2024

Remember the excitement of a fresh haircut and new clothes before the first day of school? The thrill of showing off your new look to all your friends?


Well, times haven't changed much, so it is time to head back to the salon and prepare for the year! With services ranging from haircuts to brow laminations, we truly have something to offer everyone.


However, with so much to choose from it can get overwhelming! But don't worry, we got you covered! To help you navigate the salon menu, we've compiled a quick guide to different hair services currently trending for 2024-25 years!



Colors Taking Over

Blendy Blonde: With the rise of lived in colors blondies are switching to a lower maintenance look. From this switch came the most stunning blend of blonde and dimension to create a seamless grow out.


Cowboy Copper: A dazzling and rich red that is both natural looking and eye-catching!


Rich Brunette: With the end of summer means the start of the fall season! This is the time to embrace the natural brunette and go for a rich brown with a hint of dimension.

Clean Cuts

Bobs: Short hair is back, and we are loving it!


Long Layers: Bouncy blowouts would be impossible without all the movement that comes from these layer styles.


Wispy Bangs: Perfectly light and airy, these weightless bangs are a must-have for someone looking to frame their face and add interest.


Luxurious Treatments

Deep Conditioning Treatments: A simple and budget-friendly way to rehydrate/repair your hair after a long summer of swimming and outdoor activities.


Fusio-Dose Treatment: A completely customizable treatment that targets not just one, but TWO different hair needs. Examples such as moisture + anti-frizz or brilliance + curl.


Kerastase Premiere Treatment: A 15-minute treatment that works by effectively removing calcium buildup, a common culprit for hair breakage and dullness. Which is a much-needed refresh after the chlorine and sun damage of the summer.

Trendy Hairstyles

Hair Accessories: Clips, bows, bandanas, barrettes, and so many more options to choose from! Let's add a little pizazz to your hairstyles!


 Slick Back: The slick back style is the go-to style for elegance and simplicity, or whenever you need to stretch your wash day!


Bouncy Blowouts: The blowout has made its way to the top requested style in the salon! The best part is that you can do your own blowout at home with the right tools and products.

A voluminous blowout is a timeless hairstyle that can elevate your look. With the right techniques and products, you can achieve salon-quality results at home. Start by double shampooing your hair and applying a heat protectant, hair oil, mousse, smoothing cream, and texturizing spray. Next, rough-dry your hair to 85% dry. Then, use a round brush to style your hair in sections, paying attention to the direction of the curl. Finally, set your style with hairspray and gently shake out your curls for a voluminous, effortless finish.
