Fall Color Tip/Trend – by Adrian (RED 7 SALON Evanston Colorist)

This fall, color is all about warm tones. Think golden blondes, auburn brunettes, and copper reds. A great way to make your haircolor “fall ready” is to schedule a gloss after your normal color service. A color gloss can enhance your highlights and/or single process color by giving it extra richness, warmth, and tons of shine! Use a repairing and color protecting masque, such as Aveda’s Color Conserve Strengthening Treatment to seal in your beautiful new color.

Fall Styling Tip/Trend – by Natalie (RED 7 SALON Chicago Stylist)

Bye-bye beachy waves…Hello silky straight hair! Welcome Fall 2010 with a shiny straight mane. Hot right off the runways of NYC’s Fashion Week, one thing was apparent…smooth sleek locks are the trend for this season. The humidity is gone with summer, so it’s time to try out Aveda’s Smooth Infusion Glossing Straightener. I love this product for polished blow-outs; natural cellulose delivers long lasting hold for consistent straightness and shine. It also contains hydrolyzed wheat protein that will protect your hair from heat damage by hot styling tools! To get this look apply a pea size amount of the Smooth Infusion Glossing Straightener to towel dried hair. Using a Mason Pearson or flat-bristle brush, flat-wrap hair around the shape of your head section by section until dry. If needed, use a ceramic flat iron to finish your new look!
