TIP OF THE WEEK – Getting that great pin curl for a fun holiday look

December 22, 2020 by Noelle Sim Leave a Comment

Beauty Expert & Phenix Salon Suites Founder, Gina Rivera’s Tip of the Week:

Want to create a great pin curl for a fun holiday look. Here’s some tips for getting a great look.

  • Start with second day hair that has some styling product already in it.
  • Separate hair into one -inch sections.
  • Take each section of hair and dampen with water, then wrap strands starting at ends around two fingers rolling towards scalp.
  • Roll all curls in the same direction
  • Remove fingers and secure curl with bobby pins  in an x-formation to the scalp.
  • Allow hair to dry completely and then, remove the bobby pins.
  • Style using fingers. For larger curls, use a vent brush to gently comb through.
  • Do not over style.
  • Finish with CLUTCH hairspray for the perfect hold that allows movement.

        November 2020 – Tip of the Week #3

        November 30, 2020 by Noelle Sim Leave a Comment

        All of us have periodically found great sales on professional wetlines. The question is, should you stock up and if you do, how do you make sure the line doesn’t go bad before you use it? Here’s what I recommend:

        -If you’re planning on storing a product, recognize that organic and sulfate free products may have shorter shelf lives. Keep this in mind with the quantity that you purchase.

        -Store products in a dark, cool place to increase longevity.
