Hair Treatments Galore This Holiday Season

Hair Treatments Galore This Holiday Season

The holidays are fast approaching, and now is the time to contemplate the steps you’ll need to take to present a photo-perfect look for those office Christmas parties, family dinners and New Year’s eve parties. Of those decisions, there’s perhaps no more important decision to be made than how to tame those tresses.  Your McAllister hair stylists have a wide variety of hair treatment options this year to smooth frizzy hair and repair dry & damaged hair.

Olaplex hair treatments are a perennial favorite and paired with a blowout have become the standard hair treatment for clients with either hair dried from the summer sun or chemically-damaged hair.  In less than an hour, our stylists will have you back to better than new! And this year, Olaplex has gone beyond No. 3 to use at home…this year Olaplex has introduced No. 4 shampoo, No. 5 conditioner, No. 6 bond smoother and No. 7 bonding oil.  If you’re looking for something a bit more naturally-derived, look no further than Davines’ sustainably-sourced and naturally-derived hair treatment options.  This year’s “go-to” from Davines is the Renaissance Circle hair mask. This treatment is perfect to repair hair stressed from the use of hot tools, rebuilding hair integrity and restoring hair’s natural shine.

If you are considering hair smoothing options, your McAllister stylists have more options than ever before. The industry standard – Keratin Complex – is a mainstay in McAllister’s hair salon; Keratin Complex however has introduced KC Max – the strongest keratin available and produces absolutely beautiful results. For clients that want to keep the body and ability to style but kick the frizzy hair, we have several options that will be tailored to your particular needs and budget. Brazilian Blowout is available and is the treatment that started all the rage over a year ago and produces dependably gorgeous results.  Brazilian Blowout has also introduced BBX – an express version of the original that takes less time and costs a bit less as well.  Goldwell’s Kerasilk treatment stands alone as our only customizable treatment that is tailored to your hair’s condition, texture and porosity…and the results last and last and last and last and well…you get the point!

So if you are contemplating a hair treatment in advance of the holiday rush, book your appointment with a McAllister stylist ASAP. Schedules are filling fast and time is running short!  Stop in for a consultation, text us to book an appointment or give us a ring.

Where in the World has Mark Holloway been?

It’s been a common question over the past few months regarding our Creative Director- Where is Mark?! Mark has been traveling much more frequently because of his relationship with Goldwell. When he isn’t starring in Goldwell Live Webcasts, he’s been teaching future Master Colorists and Stylists at the Goldwell/KMS academies in New York City and Santa Monica. You might even catch a snapshot of him on stage here and there during Goldwell’s “HairPlay On Tour 2016” or as a Featured Artist in the Cosmoprof/BSG shows all over the country.

What Is Mark Doing This Summer with Goldwell?

Mark is now the Lead Artist for Goldwell’s Master Stylist Haircutting program and he is diligently working on his vision of “What’s Next?” with his contributions to the Celebrity Trend program. His co-created design haircuts from his Master Stylist Trend series will be inspiring looks all over North America this fall and he expects to continue intermittently traveling to inspire salons all over to grow and try new things.
