Parting problem?

If you have a parting hair problem because you are not sure which way you should part or how much amount or so?

Here is good way to make part.

First, stand front of mirror(bathroom mirrors are usually good).

Second, wet your hair(enough amount  so you can feel water from root)

Third, find comb(if you have straight hair-fine comb, curly hair-thick comb) and comb hair straight forward.

Now, you see lines (texture)??

Fourth, choose one straight line. Usually most of people find line middle if eyebrow-ish to little bit out toward ear.

Find it? No? Then, comb it forward again until you feel fine for it. That's how you can find them.

Difficulty?  I will put video soon to give you some visual effect.

Thanks again guys !

Thin Looking hair? Yes, there are solutions.

Yes, I see a lot of guest who have lots of hair but fine texture.
In this case, I suggest them to use Thickenning shampoo and fine texture styling products.

     

    


if you have or your love has Fine texture??

The Best Shampoo by Grooming Lounge
First, Thickening shampoo (light alkaline) is better for you. Grooming Lounge You Need Conditioner
You can shampoo everyday now, It contains Bio-Tin that does make hair Thick texture.

For fine texture guest, it is common that they have scalp problem like dry, redness, etc.

This shampoo will cleans your hair but skin oil too much so it naturally protects your scalp.


And Use Conditioner (it says conditioner but, it is truly Scalp Therapy) which designed for your scalp. Most of other conditioners are not allow you to touch scalp, Why? because it will block your hair growth way to come in. eventually root will die from it. Be careful..

SO, solution is Grooming Lounge 's 'you need conditioner' = Scalp therapy

Now, I will talk about Styling Products.

For fine texture? Absolutely Water based light weigh products are highly recommend.
Grooming Lounge Some Hair Stuff
(1) Some hair stuff - Grooming Lounge : It is recently reformulated. it's strong hold with light weigh.

Malin + Goetz Sage Styling Cream
(2) Malin+Goetz -= sage styling cream : very light weigh cream - for who has extremely fine texture.

Billy Jealousy Ruckus Hair Forming Cream

(3) Billy Jealousy - It's revolutionary Solution product - 50% oil base + 50% water base. - perfect holding with naturally healthy looking hair.



(4) REDKEN FOR MEN -  Molding paste 'work hard' - It's THE BEST OF THE BEST for fine texture hair. Believe it or no style for you.

Regent Hair Style for DC pros.

Many of my Guest ask me 'What is Trend in D.C ?'

I'll definitely say, 'Regent' style (English style hair)

Regent = pompordour = Pomp = Quiff

Elvis hair style = DC Trend hair style










Think Elvis ??
Short but light Pomade Regent
   





         



   


Pomade is old fashion. We are pretty much not using this anymore. Try Grooming Lounge 'Some hair goop' I guaranty you will love it for this hair style.
Always apply it on 80% or more dried hair

Step by Step

Sides first, back of head, top and Front(bang) then mass 'em up!

I really do love this GL some Hair goop.

Do you have long ear covered hair but, want to change it short stylish ?? Try this hair style first!

My friend from New Jersey at My salon(Salon K) early 2013
Had really long hair for years, finally he decided to cut it short even show his ears completely.

Throughout consultation, We decided to keep sideburn natural & uneven bang with lots of textures.



  back of nape area : Natural hair line (Layered)
 

My handsome friend from Salon K NJ. (Sean - Big Jets fan)
Had very very long hair, ears were completely covered.
Throughout consultation, We decided keeping the ears half way by hair with natural looking layers all over. So he can have natural massy hair style with Redken 'WORK HARD' products.
Sean got an idea how to keep his hair style nice & natural after two haircuts later.

             
Look at back hair line is SO NATURAL


ASIAN friend,
Hair color : Black
Hair type : Thick Straight hair

Colored top crest area to peak to Medium Brown after Bleached out 35 min. As you can see his hair has two tones(see the difference around ear hair and top hair)
 
 This is an idea, too. if you have pin straight hair with Thick texture.
COLOR + Layered hair.
Are you asian?? Perfecto!!

K-POP Style = European Style

You all remember "KANG NAM STYLE" ??!!

How about "Tae Yang Style" ??


        

     

It's very Futuristic Short Hair style twisted from fohawk style.

Absolutely requires High Scissor cutting skill with ten different scissors at least for this hair style to create.

Point is, boxed forehead and pointed(ice pick) sideburn.

Also, We can add design on side and(or) back of head.
or
Paint with stencil.

Nothing is impossible!

Benefit is Looking always clean and active and stylish. 



Scientist say, at least 9 times of personality of human changes in life time.

Are you looking for new style? feeling changed something big??

Highly recommend this hair style~!

70 percent of men's image made by Haircut !

Hello, My followers !

Finally, We had great weather in DC, Nova .

Yes, It is true ' 70 percent of men's image made by haircut '

Most of men, they don't do make-up, plastic surgery, etc. biggest thing is absolutely The haircut.

What is most popular hair style these days?

' NYC Style = CITY Look Style ' is Most popular hair style, I'll say.

Look at pictures ( these pictures will help you what I'm talking about )

   

      

 
  


Get it??

Back in a days they do Mad-Man style. long hair all over, make part on either side, use pomade then comb it back.


But now keep the same style + short on side and back = NYC style

Originally started from breeker st. NYC. So, I started to call it NYC Semi-Classic style(NYC style).

    
 
See above? it looks much casual but still very Professional.

Absolutely recommend not to use Pomade no more for this hair style.

I have several recommendation of products for this hair style.
 (1) Grooming Lounge - Some Hair Stuff (paste with strong hold / Matte finish) = Water base


 (2) Redken for Men - Work Hard (Paste with medium to strong hold / Matte finish) = Water base


 (3) American Crew - Fiber ( Thick Paste with very strong hold / Matte finish) = Oil base


These are very good products that you can easily style with. But, Careful with Oil base products. Always shampoo before go to bed. otherwise you will have chemical reaction on your scalp defends on  people but for sure.



Now what? Try it today!
