Clearly Canadian

It’s a great time to be Canadian. Across industries, Canadians

are hitting it big—from beauty to fashion to entertainment—

and it’s so inspiring to watch. In many ways, social media

platforms, especially Instagram, have given artists, including

hairstylists, a new way to extend their reach and engage a whole

new audience.

From competitions like the North American Hairstyling Awards

to the North American Trend Vision Awards, Canadian hairstylists

are making their mark in other parts of the world as well. Last

year’s Contessa Fan Favourite winner, Matty Conrad, already had

a well-established brand, but over the past year he has amassed

an Instagram fan following that’s 10,000 strong. It has put the

Victoria-based barber in touch with other industry professionals and

elevated him on an international level.

As a result of these connections, the diversity of creativity

continues to expand at a rapid rate. Yet, it seems our world has

become a little bit closer than it was a few short years ago. When

it comes to defining the latest looks in hair, makeup and nails,

there is a continual shift—an evolution that is transforming the very

nature of this industry. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or

a novice in the industry, you’re probably taking cues right from the

streets where you live, work and travel.

And we’re seeing this mix of influences among the entries we’ve

received for this year’s Contessa Awards. Look out for the official

semi-finalists’ list in the October issue! It’s an exciting time to be

part of the professional beauty industry, especially for Canadians.

Keep the connections going and get ready for your best year yet!

PUBLISHER’S

NOTE

Making

Change Work

After spending the past decade on Bloor Street in Toronto,

we recently relocated our offices to Queen Street West and

Bathurst, an area where fashion brands and tattoo artists

manage to harmoniously coexist next to big box stores such as

Winners and Loblaws.

Interestingly, our move to this neighborhood coincided with the

news that P&G has sold its professional division, which includes the

brands, Wella, Sebsatian and Nioxin to Coty Inc., owners of OPI,

among other brands. I’m sure this deal has some people wringing

their hands with concern. But this isn’t the first—and won’t be the

last—merger or acquisition in the professional beauty industry.

When L’Oréal Professionnel purchased Redken in the ’90s many

of my Redkenite friends were very nervous about how the company

would change. I’d like to think the changes were very positive and

profitable. From the best in research and innovation to training and

education, and best business practices, these corporations offer

many benefits, bringing people together with renewed resources.

However, I’ll confess that I am curious about how our industry is

perceived by these corporations. Not everyone truly understands

the nuances of the business, but those that do will succeed. It’s

as certain as hair grows. But rather than feeling any threat from

corporate business, as business owners we should embrace

change. The way I see it, we need to find a way to tap into these

conglomorates which have a lot of offer.

In truth, we should be so flattered that such major corporations

feel our industry is worth the investment. With a mix of independent

creative types, that possess an entrepreneurial spirit, we are an

entity that isn’t easy to define, but at our core, this is who we are.

As with businesses big and small in our new neighbourhood, there’s

no reason we can’t all coexist, giving us all every reason to succeed.

Everything Is

Illuminated

Joico ups its colour game with the

new LumiShine colour range.

Joico has been on an innovation high this year and, with the

new Joico LumiShine colour offering, it’s just getting better.

The low-ammonia colour range (complete with 74 shades

in both permanent and demi-permanent options) promotes

healthier colour-treated hair with its innovative ArgiPlex

Technology. Arginine, an amino acid, keeps hair healthy, strong

and, of course, shiny during the colouring process, and this

Oh So

pHresh

ingredient helps increase the longevity of your client’s colour.

reinvents its BC Hairtherapy

Color Freeze range.

Your clients come to you to keep their colour

looking fresh, but we all know it often comes

at a price. Susan Boccia, education manager

for Schwarzkopf Professional, chatted about

the relaunch of the brand’s BC Hairtherapy

Color Freeze range, with a new formula and

new hero product that will bring your client’s

hair back to it’s virgin status and keep colour

fresher for longer. “Natural hair has a pH of

4.5, which means the cuticle is always closed

and the inner structure is always protected.

When we colour hair, it changes the outer

and inner structure of the hair and changes

the pH, so colour fades faster,” explains

Boccia. The new Color Freeze formulation has

a pH of 4.5 but also maintains that pH level

inside the hair shaft. The hero of the lineup is

the CC Cream, which “seals the cuticle and

is the first heat protection product in our care

line,” delivering shine and protecting colour

with up to zero fade for 25 washes.

DAMAGE

CONTROL

L’Oréal Professionnel's

Pro Fiber collection marries

in-salon treatments with at-home

care for damaged hair.

PREPARE

L’Oréal Professionnel’s Pro Fiber

Rich Masque is an in-salon

treatment that provides deep down

protection. It seals in moisture and

keeps damage-creating stressors

out with the line’s APTES 100

formula and promises to repair

broken hair fibres.

REPAIR

Each of the three Prime

Concentrates (for three different

levels of damage) can be layered

with the Rich Masque for a

more targeted treatment with

instant results.

MAINTAIN

Send your clients home with the

line that best suits their level of

hair damage: Prevent, Restore

or Reconstruct. Each contains a

shampoo, conditioner, masque

and leave-in.

CLEAN

How World salon product lines are

redefining clean, professional performance

and proving that simplicity is always best.

The brainchild of Toronto-based

celebrity stylist Brian Phillips,

World has been manufacturing

healthy ingredient-based

products since 2001. The

multi-use products are gentle,

safe, fragrance-free and

interchangeable for both skin

and hair.

World’s desire to provide

healthy, environmentally

conscious products has earned

the brand the Green Circle

Award for Environmental

Stewardship (2010) and the

Environmental Defence Green

Champion Award (2015). Its

focus spans greater than the

client experience, says Phillips.

“Not only do we need to be

concerned about the health and

beauty of our clients but we

must also take steps to reduce

our staff's exposure to toxic

chemicals all day, every day.”

ChromaSilk Vivids Locked-

In shades promise total

colour with no transfer.

Unicorn, mermaid, rainbow hair: Whatever

you want to call it, vibrant, colourful strands

are going strong. But there are few things

worse than trying to give your client a

colourful look and having the colours bleed

and transfer. Now, you can colour block,

stripe or create custom hues with the six

new Pravana ChromaSilk Vivids Locked-In

shades (Blue, Teal, Purple, Pink, Red and

Yellow) without any colour transfer—unless

you intend to do some fancy coloured

ombré styles, of course.

Man Up

The Alternative Hair Show

gets a new category—just for the guys.

Entry time for the International Visionary Award at

the Alternative Hair Show is here again, and this

year you have one more reason to enter: Since

men’s grooming is still on the upswing, with no

signs of stopping anytime soon, the International

Visionary Award is making sure to recognize

excellence in this ongoing trend and has added a

men’s category. The entry deadline is August 31,

2015, so now’s the time to exercise your barbering

and men’s styling skills. For more information on

how to enter, go to alternativehair.org.

FACTS YOU

DIDN’T KNOW

ABOUT PLANNING

10FUN

THE CONTESSAS

1We start planning the Contessa Awards really

(really) early—like February early. It takes us about

nine months to put the Contessa Awards together,

from start to finish (consider it our baby!).

2Each year we brainstorm different ideas

for our theme—there have been some

pretty interesting ones along the way.

3We have a secret

Pinterest board we use to solidify our theme and get

some inspiration for the multimedia and presentations.

4It takes more than a month of manpower to input and

scrutinize all of the Contessa entries (we get a lot!).

5Calling Elite Master and Master Stylist nominees

and all of the finalists to let them know is one of

the best part of gearing up for Contessa time (so many

happy voices on the other end!).

6We proof the names on the semi-finalist, finalist

and winner lists (plus those pretty trophies) at least 20 times before

each issue and before gala night.

7We have more than 50 meetings with

the production company, presenting

brands and our venue to make sure

everything goes smoothly.

8The ladies at Salon Magazine

not-so-secretly break in their Contessa high heels at

the office in the weeks leading up to the gala.

9It takes 20 people and four

hours to put together more

than 1,000 swag bags for gala night—it’s all hands

on deck that day!

On Contessa night, we’re so excited to finally

10 see the winners announced (some of us have

known for weeks!) and see the whole gala come

together.

TRENDS

Rock

the

Runway

If 2014 was the year of bold, look-at-me

hair colour and nails, then fall/winter

2015/2016 trends are all about wearable

styles, easily translatable from the catwalk

to your salon. Here are some of the latest

hair and nail trends—and new products to

go with them, too.

THE TREND: SMOOTH MOVES

THE FIX: UNITE 7SECONDS

GLOSSING SPRAY

While the “wet look” is constantly evolving back and

forth from underwater sleek to a more day-to-day shine,

there’s still something about shiny strands that we

just can’t get enough of. This season, it’s that everyday

sheen that lit up the runways, like at Jenny Packham,

with a low-maintenance finish. Unite 7Seconds Glossing

Spray takes hair from smoothed-out tresses to a highshine

gloss in a buildable formula that even protects

hair from heat styling, so you can give your clients that

runway look without the damage.

THE TREND:

TEXTURED FINISHES

THE FIX: TIGI BED

HEAD JOYRIDE

Texture has been a big deal for a few

seasons now: last year with woven

pieces of fabric and this year with

mussed-up and plaited detail finishes.

TIGI Bed Head Joyride gives you the

ability to create that next-day lived-in

look for your clients, even if their hair is

squeaky clean. Craving textured details?

This primer provides grip, so you can add

those coveted boho braids and undone

finishes—sometimes soft, smooth hair is

extremely overrated.

TRENDS

THE TREND: STYLE ICON

THE FIX: SEBASTIAN

PROFESSIONAL STYLBRID 9

Manipulating your client’s hair has never

been so easy. This season we saw out-ofthe-box

detailing paired with clean lines

and structured parts alongside everyday

styles, such as low ponytails and modern

chignons. Sebastian Professional Stylbrid

9 is the ultimate in hybrid—not to mention

time-saving—styling products. Use this

mist to manipulate those deep parts or

protect hair while you’re working those

ultra-straight structured styles and keep

those finishing touches in place.

THE TREND:

AU NATUREL

THE FIX: REDKEN

DIAMOND OIL

GLOW DRY

That ‘70s boho vibe is going

strong, and with that comes

loose, done-undone hair—not

quite messy or unkempt but

not quite fully put together

either. With this trend, it’s

all about merging that “I

woke up like this” look with a slightly more refined

finish, which means banishing frizz. Redken Diamond

Oil Glow Dry is the newest hair-saving pre-dry product

aimed at creating that blow-dried glow by smoothing

out tresses and delivering that natural flower child flair

with just a bit of help.

THE TREND:

RETURN OF THE

BLOWOUT

THE FIX: KENRA

PERFECT BLOWOUT

Even though natural-looking

hair is all the rage, that doesn’t

mean the heyday of the blowout

is over—in fact, it might just be

here to stay for good. Whether

you prefer the bouncy blowout

or your client just wants a bit

of movement in her mane, this

is you go-to style, both on and

off the runway. Kenra Perfect

Blowout 5 is the perfect prep,

offering heat styling protection,

keeping strands smooth to

prevent breakage and harnessing

that long, flowy appeal (the exact

opposite of what those texture

makers crave).

GLOBAL

TRENDS

THE TREND:

FAUX TEXTURE

THE FIX: ESSIE

The nails seen at World MasterCard

Fashion Week in Toronto were some

of the leaders when it came to faux

texture. Essie Canada’s lead nail artist,

Rita Remark, brought in touches of faux marble

and showed onlookers that matte nails aren’t going

anywhere anytime soon. Whether you pair Essie’s new In

the Lobby with Matte About You topcoat or opt for Frock

’n Roll for its satiny appeal, one thing for sure is that faux

texture on nails is the new must-have accessory for fall.

THE TREND:

COLOUR ME

PRETTY

THE FIX: OPI

AND CHINA

GLAZE

Runway nails are often

filled with neutral

shades—we can’t blame

them with the mix of

fashion, hair, makeup

and nails—so when

we’re given a shot of

colour to inspire the cold,

colourless months, it’s

instantly exciting. Paired

alongside nail art and

designs using negative

space, these looks inject

some fresh fun into the

moody fall season. Pair

these looks with OPI’s

minty Gelato on My Mind

and S’More Fun from

China Glaze and you’ve

got proof that colour

isn’t just reserved for

summertime.

THE TREND: NEUTRAL GROUND

THE FIX: MORGAN TAYLOR AND CND

Between the red carpet and the runway, there’s been a return

to minimalist style and colour. Fall brings a fresh take on the

neutral mani, with darker shades and metallic accents fitting in

with the season’s grungy vibe and a balance of pretty, barely

there nudes. CND VINYLUX in Safety Pin and Morgan Taylor in

Tan My Hide bring this trend into the mix, whether paired solo

or with some minimalist nail art.

@tombachik

We chatted with celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik to

find out where he gets his inspiration and what it

takes to be Jennifer Lopez’s go-to manicurist.

SALON MAGAZINE:

How did you get started doing

celebrity nails?

TOM BACHIK: I went to

school for graphic design

hoping to open a studio and

do custom airbrushing. In the

‘90s, nail art was super-popular,

so I just switched my canvas.

I worked with CND for eight

years and I was working on a

photo shoot where we had hired

Beyoncé’s makeup artist. She

connected me with the agency

that represented her and things

exploded from there.

SM: What does it take to be a

celebrity nail artist?

TB: You need to be willing to

serve—not as a servant, but as a

service provider—and you need

to be on call 24/7 because these

clients have crazy schedules.

The thing I love about celebrities

is that you understand that they

really are just people looking

for a trustworthy group to keep

them calm.

SM: Where do you get your

inspiration?

TB: It’s a combination of what’s

happening in fashion and on

the red carpet. I think shoes

are great indicators of trends

because they are an accessory

and so are nails. Nails are kind of

like the exclamation point at the

end of the sentence.

Whenever possible, “clean and oil your clippers once

or twice a day to ensure proper cutting, crisper results

and longevity for your tools.” – E.C.

4 “The Andis Envy Adjustable Blade Clipper is

lightweight, with an adjustable blade clipper, perfect

for cutting hair or finishing a fade.” – Aileen Nunez,

5 Use the Andis Clipper Comb with your clipper-overcomb

technique to get a defined fade every time.

between fade transitions and to add movement to the

top interior part of the hair.” – A.N.

COLOUR

CHALLENGE

accepted

Curly hair comes with its own set of challenges,

but that doesn’t mean your curly-haired clients

have to forfeit their colour service.

Your curly-haired clients come to you to keep their manes

looking pristine, but with hair that’s more susceptible to dryness

and breakage, keeping up their colour can be a bit more work.

We spoke to two pros on how to help give your curly-haired

clients a perfect colour service, every single time. Caroline Muir-

McMillan, co-owner of The Curl Ambassadors, with locations

in both Toronto and Vaughan, Ont., and Shari Harbinger, vicepresident

of education at DevaCurl, share their expertise when

it comes to colouring and maintaining healthy curls long past

your client’s visit to the salon.

DITCH DRYNESS

Dryness is an ongoing issue with curls of any kind, which can

lead to breakage and further damage down the road. While you

can only do so much for your coil-toting clients while they’re in

your chair, Muir-McMillan reiterates the importance of reminding

your clients about their at-home care and repeating “Hydrate,

hydrate, hydrate” to your clients when they come through the

salon. Remind them to nourish and quench their tresses with

weekly at-home treatments, especially if your clients are diligent

with their colour touch-ups. She also suggests working in a

“deep moisturizing treatment prior to the colour service,” or a

reconstructive treatment for fine or very damaged hair. Harbinger

explains that one of the main errors of colouring curly hair is to

do so “without the proper moisture foundation,” such as the

reconstructive treatments that Muir-McMillan recommends.

GO WITH THE GRAIN

Harbinger stresses the importance of “understanding your

client’s texture” and says that the best way to colour curly

hair is to “observe the direction and movement of the curls

and work with the pattern, not against it.” Both Harbinger and

Muir-McMillan agree that curly hair is more reflective, since it

already has some movement in it, which allows you to place

the colour more strategically, using less overall and making the

most of your client’s natural texture. “Isolate individual curls [by

free-form painting] to highlight and ensure the colour doesn’t get lost in the mix,”

explains Muir-McMillan. Harbinger also suggests cutting before colouring “so that

the colour will enhance the style.”

PRACTISE SAFE COLOUR

One of the main ways to protect curls that are already susceptible to dryness

and damage is to use the right kind of colour. Both Harbinger and Muir-McMillan

suggest ammonia-free colour whenever possible. “A lot of colourists will use way

too much colour with high ammonia or too strong a developer,” Harbinger explains,

suggesting that, when it comes to colour for curly-haired clients, less is always

more. Muir-McMillan also recommends forgoing traditional colour for clients who

have extensive damage. She suggests opting for “colour rinses or semi-permanent

shades instead, along with a plan to help remedy damage, before considering

highlights or permanent colour, which requires a developer.”

YOUR MOVE

Unless you’ve already been hired

by a salon or you’re in a corporate

position where the company helps

streamline your move abroad, be

prepared and stay organized on the

paperwork that needs to be done

before you can move ahead.

documents

“Have all the

documents in hand

before applying for

your work visa,” says

Mathieu Latour, a young freelance

stylist originally from Montreal who

now lives in London, where he works

at George Northwood Salon. That,

of course, includes all diplomas

and certifications. “It's relatively

easy to obtain a work visa for the

U.K. if you're Canadian and under

31, but your application can easily

be rejected if key documents are

missing,” says Latour, who had to

apply twice before receiving his visa.

money

“Save a lot of money,

especially if your plan

is to move to London,

because this is a very expensive

city,” cautions Bélanger.

HOW DO YOU MANAGE TO CRAFT A CAREER

ON THE INTERNATIONAL CIRCUIT? WE

ASKED CANADIAN HAIRSTYLISTS WHO HAVE

ESTABLISHED THEMSELVES AWAY FROM

THEIR HOME AND NATIVE LAND.

London calling

When you’re a young hairstylist, making it in one

of the biggest fashion and cutting-edge hairstyling

capitals in the world is no easy feat. But Montreal

native Frédéric Bélanger has mastered this in

three short years, after starting out with Gary

Ingham, a highly regarded Aveda salon located in

a posh and lush London neighbourhood.

How did he obtain this coveted position so

quickly after arriving in London?

“To get the job at Gary Ingham, I sent my

resumé and portfolio to an agency that works

with hairstylists and acts as a liaison between

talent and salons. A few hours later, I received a

phone call from Rose-Mary, the lovely lady who

owns the agency. I recall entering the chic and

very posh agency with a purple mohawk, dressed

as a punk and telling myself, “I will never get a

job from her! She got me an interview with Gary

and Sean, the owners of Gary Ingham Salon &

Spa, and we connected straight away.”

Staying focused

For Timothy Switzer, Goldwell Global Master,

Canada, playing an important role on the

international scene has been a role that he has

prepared for a long time, albeit unknowingly. In

fact, he says, this position is the culmination of

years of dedicated work in the salon: “It takes a

lot of discipline and focus to better your craft. And

when I was approached by Goldwell to become

part of their global team, I think they recognized

the dedication I’ve put in my career. It just doesn't

happen overnight.”

Surprisingly enough, owning and managing

your own local salon doesn’t seem to hinder

your ability to thrive on the international circuit.

“I go to Asia maybe two or three times a year to

train teams there, and then I’m off to Germany

maybe once a year to work with the other global

stylists,” says Switzer. He co-owns two salons

now: one in Whitby, Ontario, and the other in

Montreal with his husband, Simon-Pierre Daoust,

also a Goldwell platform artist. “I always have

time to make it back home and take care of

my clients,” says the dynamo hairstylist who

thrives under pressure and gets bored when his

schedule is not fully packed!

Moving forward

Three weeks into his role with Gary

Ingham, Bélanger called a meeting with his

bosses to discuss the possibility of setting up

a creative team, and that’s how he managed to

get the position of creative director—one that he

literally designed for himself.

They gave him all the freedom he needed

creatively and a budget to hire the best

photographers and materials to craft collections

for competitions.

After six months, the team led by Bélanger

entered the British Hairdressing Awards with a

first collection inspired by the lost tribes of Africa.

The second year, they presented a collection in

front of a panel of judges from the Fellowship for

British Hairdressing. This collection brought the

art team on stage at Salon International and got

Gary Ingham through for the London Hairdresser

of the Year finalist in 2014. Quite impressive for a

relatively unknown stylist who landed

in the U.K. with a dream and a few

social media connections. S

Mastering

His Style

With multiple awards, editorial work and a successful

Yorkville salon, Toronto’s Adrian Carew explains the

significance of being named the Canadian finalist

for Revlon Professional Style Masters.

By Anna Lee Boschetto

For his Style Masters entry, Canadian finalist Adrian

Carew didn’t let a long day on set deter him. Having

logged a 22-hour day prior to shooting, Carew and his

makeup artist went home, caught a couple of hours of

sleep and were back at it refreshed. And when the model

walked through the door, Carew says they knew their

photographer would capture the images they were after.

When in Rome

“I knew being a finalist was a big thing, but until I met

everyone from the other countries, I didn’t realize how

big it was. When I realized I was the only one from the

Americas, presenting in Rome, that’s when it really hit

me. It was interesting to see how the other countries

achieved their looks. Mine was so simple by comparison.”

– Adrian Carew

Model call

“She walked in with

such presence that

my photographer

and makeup artist

and realized that

she had the right

attitude and would

do whatever it took

to get the shots.”

– A.C.

Award-winning style

“Open your eyes when you walk

down the street. Think about how you

can translate a light fixture on a building

or break down a certain architectural

feature into something and be original.”

– A.C.

Talent scout

“There’s so much talent in Canada, and we all need

guidance. You have to be open. I did not get here on my

own, and in the future I won’t get to where I’m going

on my own either. Someone had to show me, so why

wouldn’t I do that for someone else? I have more to gain

from seeing others succeed.” – A.C.

Conceptual styling

“It’s a combination of nature and

culture. Having grown up in Barbados,

I thought of the way the waves hit

the beach and the different formation

of water. I also spent a lot of my

time focusing on different aspects of

culture. From the African aspect and

putting movement into the look, the

image with a fringe has more of an

Inuit look. I also took ideas from the

sea for the final one.” – A.C. S

Up for

the

Challenge

With only one chance to get it right,

David Andreas Kyrkiris delves into his

experience at the American Crew All-Star

Challenge, held this year in Rome, including

what it was like to shoot with the brand’s

founder and the next chapter in men’s trends.

Trend for men:

“I started doing combovers a

few years ago. For men’s trends,

everything is marketable. There

are those who consume a

particular hairstyle, fashion or


music and they will gravitate

in a certain way.” –D.A.K.

On entering the competition

“I knew I had the skills and wanted the experience. When I

asked my boss, he also believed in me and pushed me to do it.

At the beginning I wasn’t entering to win. I did my best—I wasn’t

competing against anyone but myself. That was my first shoot and

I hoped to win, but you can’t expect that you will win instantly.“

–David Andreas Kyrkiris

ON THE EXPERIENCE

“With a haircut in normal life, you try your best, but you can’t be

creative or eccentric. For me, a photo shoot is much more personal.“

–D.A.K.

KEEPING YOUR COMPOSURE

“We were all nervous—for many of us, this was our first time, and

we felt we were so blessed. It was very instinctive, and we chose

with both our brain and our heart.“ –D.A.K.

A MATTER OF TIME

“It’s like having someone come into your salon and tell you they

are in a hurry. You have to find a cut and style it and make it look

professional, and it has to be done quick to create the look. You really

can’t do much, so you definitely can’t overthink it. You have to do

something that the model would also accept. You have to listen to

the request of the model—the starting point is from scratch.“ –D.A.K.

On working with David Raccuglia

“From the initial photo shoot, David takes a whole bunch of shots;

you select the angle you like best and then choose from those. David

was so great to work with and he’s actually pretty funny and very

relaxed, so it was really terrific.“ –D.A.K.

Fashion focus

“For Rome I chose the flat top, with a three-cut-in-one philosophy. That

means I could have the look slicked back, leave a bit of fringe in front or

style it as it was here. The look was very versatile and the square shape is

big for American Crew, which thought was important to respect.“ –D.A.K.

Model of difference

“I was looking for one with a beard, but the hair texture was also important.

I was looking for hair that wasn’t too tough to work with and I figured that I

could work with him. For the photo shoot, I wanted someone with dark hair

that holds well because, when you cut short, you can see the fades and the

gradual transitions.“ –D.A.K.

Cutting-edge creative

“The model inspires me. Even if you have something in your head, it may not

turn out. As you work, you add things. For my Canadian entry, I practised a lot

in terms of styling and I tried many different versions of the same haircut.

–D.A.K. S

“It depends on the result

you want to have and the

hair texture. For me, I

used the Fiber and Liquid

Wax before blow-drying

and the Shampoo and

Daily Conditioner—all from

American Crew, of course!“

–D.A.K.

AHEAD OF THE

CURVE

Cutting and styling natural curls can be a challenge

if you’re not used to working with this particular type

of hair. We asked top names in the industry to share

their best tips, tricks and home care recommendations.

By Anna Lee Boschetto & Yasmin Grothé

THE EXPERTS

MARILYN ROSE International Redken artist and curly hair specialist

TIPPI SHORTER Celebrity hairstylist and textured hair expert

SHARI HARBINGER Vice-president of education for DevaCurl

What’s your

type?

When it comes to curls, each category ranges from

subtle to strong. We asked Tippi Shorter, a celebrity

hairstylist who has worked with Alicia Keys,

Rihanna and dozens of others, for the breakdown

on curls.

chalk. This hair type has 20 to 30 per cent

shrinkage when dried. CURL INSPIRATION

2Coily hair has tight curl patterns that are the

width of a straw and shrink about 90 per cent

from wet to dry. Many people refer to this

curl type as “ethnic hair.” CURL INSPIRATION

3Wavy hair patterns can be the size of a water

#1 CURLY HAIR MISTAKE

“Cutting wet and focusing on length more

than shape.”

–Shari Harbinger, vice-president of education for DevaCurl

Q What techniques are best used for cutting curly hair?

MARILYN ROSE The approach is more visual than technical. Think of it as sculpting hair.

You need to step away to see the overall shape as you are moving along in the haircutting

process. To achieve that, the hair has to be dry and you should avoid applying any tension

on the strands. You are cutting curl by curl. You also need to work with negative space.

Q What is negative space?

MARILYN ROSE Let me give you an example: When you pick up a spoon, you can’t

see through it, right? But with a fork, you can. The idea here is to create “openings”

throughout the hair, or what we call “negative space,” so that it doesn’t end up looking

like a wig. This technique is particularly well suited to thick, coarse hair.

Q What determines the shape of the cut?

TIPPI SHORTER The density of the hair and the circumference of the strands. When

each strand is well defined, a very light layering and a mid-back or shorter length works.

Shoulder length is great when the density is lower, beucase you can create a nice

rounded look.

#1 STYLING MISTAKE

“They use sulfate-derived products that further

dehydrate curls. Instead, stylists should opt for

products that add moisture, like a conditioning

cleanser.”

– Shari Harbinger, vice-president of education for DevaCurl

Q How do you dry curly hair?

MARILYN ROSE In the salon, you’ll want to use a diffuser to create

those beautiful, bouncy curls. But remember, a diffuser will also create

more volume. Airdrying is great for coarse, thick hair. But don’t forget

that curly hair needs to be quite wet before you apply any styling

product. A lot of people take out too much water, so it’s already frizzy

by the time they start styling it. To minimize frizz, lightly scrunch hair in

an upward movement to squeeze out the water. Never, ever use a terry

cloth towel! Use a T-shirt or a microfibre towel instead.

TIPPI SHORTER For different hair textures, the curl around the

temples might be looser and tighter at the centre of the head. When

you’re drying, you may have to diffuse certain areas and scrunch other

areas. For people with fine but curly hair, you might want to braid the

hair, then dry it to create more volume.

Q How often should curly hair be washed?

MARILYN ROSE Curls need moisture, and the best way to achieve this

is by not overstripping the natural oils from the scalp. Ideally, curly hair

should not be washed more than three times a week, and always with

a non-sulfate formula. If your client is very active, recommend applying

shampoo only to the roots and condition hair from the mid-shaft to the

ends to ensure that the curls are well hydrated and keep their bounce.

Q What styling products do you recommend?

TIPPI SHORTER Products that have a lightweight, liquid consistency,

such as spray-on gels, liquid gels and foams, work well with wavy hair.

With coily hair, ultra-hydrating oils are super-essential. Also, the thicker

consistency of hydrating styling creams add more weight to the hair,

making cutting easier while reducing shrinkage.

Q How do you determine which type of product to use?

SHARI HARBINGER Texture craves moisture, definition, control and

volume, but the products used depend on what the client’s ideal look

is. For example, choose products that bring hydration and control to

dehydrated curls for clients with dry hair or choose products that add

life for clients who want more volume.

Q How do you determine the right amount of product?

SHARI HARBINGER The thickness of the hair determines the amount

of product used. With denser hair, we recommend that stylists use

more product to make sure it’s evenly distributed throughout the hair,

ensuring thorough saturation for best results.

Q What types of products should stylists recommend fo

home care?

MARILYN ROSE A texturizing mousse is great for loose, lazy

curls and a reactivating spray helps eliminate frizz on all curl types.

Q Essential home care tool?

TIPPI SHORTER Blow-drying with a diffuser attachment –

the universal ones blow too much wind. And a conditioning

treatment will rehydrate and soften the hair. S

PROFILE

Global

Perspective

From celebrities like Lady Gaga to

fashion brands like Chanel, Eugene

Souleiman’s artistic mastery has

made him an icon of style across the

fashion, beauty and entertainment

industries.


As any artist will tell you,

keeping an open mind is key to

cultivating creative ideas. For

Eugene Souleiman, Wella’s creative director,

being open to new concepts also means

never taking yourself too seriously. “Humour

is a very good leveller, and it keeps you

open and objective,” says Souleiman, adding

that he’ll never stop learning. After putting

his children to bed at his home in London,

Souleiman made time to speak with Salon

Magazine about his outlook on trends and

what it means to be a hairstylist in today’s

world of global beauty.

Salon Magazine: You started your career in

the early ’80s. What has helped you maintain

your creative eye?

Eugene Souleiman: I think in a more abstract

kind of way—it’s just very innate to me.

Shapes, texture and colour: These are the

three key elements that a good hairstyle

should encompass, and I happen to think in

this way.

SM: With today’s access to trends from

around the world, where do you see the next

great trend originating from?

ES: Japan. It’s a country where I feel very

much at home, so it’s an amazing place for

me. I’ve never really been one of these people

who is into routine. I thrive on things changing

constantly at a faster pace.

SM: What does the concept of global

style mean to you as a hairstylist?

ES: There is a more open-minded view

of what is beautiful now—there’s a lot of

diversity. For instance, a fashion show in

London is either very raw and low-key or

crazy; in Milan it’s more sensual and sexy or

intelligent and minimal; and in New York it's

very wearable and believable.

SM: You talk about imperfection in hair, yet

your work is flawless. What is the secret to

finding that balance?

ES: The secret is to start with a clean base

and to layer products. For instance, when

we work on Chloé, we create a beautifully

groomed centre part look that falls into the

eyes. The look has more natural movement,

so I’ll use a hydration spray at the roots

and ends, along with a bit of drying powder

underneath to create volume. It’s really about

understanding how to work with the products

in different ways and how each product can

be layered to create the look you want.

SM: Working with celebrities, what’s the

process of creating a look that is really defining?

ES: With Lady Gaga, it was funny because we

were talking and I just suggested cutting her

hair off because no one really knew what her

hair looked like anyway. I love Björk and her

free spirit. She has such a childlike quality. We

always have a great exchange of creative ideas

and she’s wide open to trying new looks.

SM: Can you speak to the importance

of collaborating?

PHOTOS COURTESY OF WELLA PROFESSIONALS


ES: There’s an emotional side to

doing hair: If they aren’t someone

whose work you respect, it’s

difficult. You get different things

from different people, but it’s

chemistry really. Josh and I

collaborate together and we’re

always working as a team. It’s so

important to have the support and

respect of your colleagues.

SM: As a global creative director

for Wella, what does the next trend

evolution look like to you?

ES: More artisanal, with smaller

businesses and shops evolving

and growth that isn’t big. There

are pockets of people doing

interesting things. I look at what’s

around me in the world. I’m very

into pop culture, and I have a

huge comic book collection. We

build on a certain vibe and, from

the back of our minds, the vision

comes through.

”

Every fashion house

has a different energy

and point of view

that feeds me. I look

at doing something

that is a complete

juxtaposition yet it

would fit the collection.”

SM: You worked with Trevor Sorbie

for a decade. What would you say

was your biggest take-away from

that experience?

ES: I’m very lucky to have had the

background of training with Trevor

Sorbie and that Sassoon element

to my work. I’ve had a very

strong and eclectic training and,

as a result, I have this menu of

techniques that I’ve been taught,

so I go with the flow.

SM: What do you see as your

next step?

ES: I would like to teach. One

of my assistants told me people

really enjoy being on my team and

that they learn as we all learn. I’m

also in the process of building my

studio, and I’m working on an idea

for an atelier for myself because I

always go into other people’s places

and have never had my own. S


SALON

BUSINESS

Reset Your

Marketing

Strategy

Need a few new ways to boost your business? Take a look at these

back-to-basics ideas that will help you refine your salon brand.

Sometimes fresh marketing

ideas don’t require a whole new

brand identity but simply require

a different approach. According to Shauky

Gulamani, president and CEO for FHI Brands,

business innovation is as critical as innovative

technology when it comes to keeping your

brand fresh and relevant. That said, Gulamani, a

Canadian who is also a professional hairstylist,

believes that it’s not necessary to reinvent the

wheel in order to take your brand and your salon

business to new heights. Here are five costeffective

ways to make your mark and create a

whole new experience for your salon clients.

REFINING YOUR STRATEGY

Whether you’re a corporate company or a

salon, staying current with relevant branding

and messaging helps you maintain current

business while sparking interest from new

revue sources. But staying fresh doesn’t

necessarily require a whole new branding

strategy, it can be as simple as refining your

presence in the industry. For FHI Brands, it

meant establishing a parent company which

supports and reflects the professional hair care

brands, including FHI Heat and Stylus.

GO BACK TO BASICS

While your salon brand may be wellestablished,

keeping a critical eye on brand

messaging is an important part of retaining

a fresh look and feel. For FHI Brands,

developing innovative products combined

with education, has enabled the company

to remain relevant, despite the competition.

“Our brand standards create our consistent

image and identity,” explains Gulamani,

adding that thisconsistency of messaging

further generates brand awareness.

STAY SOCIALLY AWARE

Like it or not, social media isn’t going

anywhere, and as business owners you

can’t afford to disregard the importance

of how you communicate. Even on social

media platforms, Gulamani believes that

engaging with customers and potential new

ones is important, but must be done in a value

added way. Along with promoting launches

and innovation, offering immediate feedback

and assistance goes a long way to creating a

relationship with an audience.

AN INTEGRATED APPROACH

Clarity and consistency is key when you’re

creating the look and feel of your brand.

“At FHI we incorporate more than one

campaign, ensuring the brand’s voice and

message is clear and consistent,” explains

Gulamani. In addition, he underscores the

importance of presenting the right message

on the right platform, at the right time will

generate the best return on your investment.

GET TALKING

Your salon team is your best form of

marketing. At FHI, Chris Campbell, vicepresident

of shows and education, works

with the brand’s spokesperson and more

than 50 educators to expand the brand’s

messaging. In addition, the brand takes part

in events and shows, offering additional

opportunities to engage new customers. S

throughout the salon, courtesy of pink lights, vibrant

products and fun, illustrated accents. And just

AGNES, CANCER SURVIVOR

“While I was going through my cancer treatment, I was determined to face cancer head on. And thanks to

Look Good Feel Better I got the help I needed.”

At a free, two-hour Look Good Feel Better workshop, Agnes received a complimentary kit of cosmetic

products and a chemo cap. She learned simple makeup techniques to even out her skin tone and recreate

the look of lost eyebrows and lashes. A hair alternatives specialist showed Agnes how to have fun with

scarves and hats, empowering her to face cancer with confi dence.
