We all hate take the time to fix our hair in the morning, after a nap, or after opening a window. No one likes getting up an hour early to throw hot tools in their hair, so they don’t have to throw their hair up in a bun or pony. Especially when you wake up late and definitely do not have to time to think about your hair.
If you’re the type of person that just cant be bothered with your hair, because its too much effort, your crazy busy, or just don’t care. Well gurls you need to be thinking about getting one of these cuts, shorter hair is easier to deal with for a reason. But were not gunna bust out the clippers, you don’t have to go that short to have effortless hair. Were gunna make you cute with less effort, which is all anyone can as for.

With a long one length bob you don’t have too much hair to style

​With a stacked long bob you can just roll out of bed and finger comb your hair and your set.

​The stacked bob is a style staple, you’ve got classic shape and style, that doesn’t need much styling or can be very styled quite easily

The sleek beveled bob, you have the smooth curved shape of the bob, where the hair just sits into place. Its cut into shape meaning its not going anywhere.

​The long layer piecey bob, This is a good transition bob, where you have the some movement and you have you almost good lenght to the layers. Making it a cute trendy cut and that is easily tussled and ready to go.

​The mom cut, hair your hair stacked high and tight, literally making the shape just stay their, its not going anywhere you don’t have to do jack!

The boyish pixie where the hair is cropped short, you don’t need to be told short hair is very easily pushed into place. Making this one a lot less effort into looking good. 

The swoop pixie is also a crowd pleaser, you’ve got a luscious swoop with a lot of body and is cropped shorter on the sides.

The long bob is chic with a build underneath, these bobs usually have a soft curve at the bottom giving it body and shape. These are simple cut to take care of and it’s not a drastic cut when you decide to go shorter. ​

The Inverted bob is a long bob at the front and retreats to a shorter back. This gives not only body but dimension to not only the hair but the face and your frame. This is a more modern take on the bob and is a booming trend, it's easy to deal with and very cute. You don't have to sacrifice to much length in the front with this one. ​

The half bob as well a bob length cut with a fair amount of body on one side and the other side it usually shaved down. So you have a far amount of hair on the one side giving it quite the dramatic look. This is a chic and bold style, for those that like to make a statement with their hair.

​

The soft bob is a shorter bob that has all the build to make the body but the edges are rounded and softened out so you don't see any lines. This is considered the classic bob, the shape is nice and round and is usually cut off around the chin, adding shape the head but leaving the neck exposed.

​

Its way too hot to have your long hair down and it seems like a waste to be rocking the basic ponytail all summer long. I mean who wants to be basic?
But you have to do something with that long hair because the heat and long locks do not match. And cutting a lot of hair off is a bit to drastic for just a sweltering season. So how do we deal with the heat? Ill tell you, cute updo styles! Wow everyone with these trendy yet simple styles and watch all those heads turn. Keeping your hair off your neck and keeping you cooler through the season. You may be suffering from the heat but you’ll look cute doing it. Outdoor music festival anyone?

​

First up we have the crowd fav, the twin top buns. This style has been on a trend rise lately, its easily paired with glitter roots or a cute choker. The style is very simple and easy to quickly to change your hair from a hot mess in to fun little buns. It involves putting your hair into pig tails placed close to your part line. Then all you do is tease the hair to look fuller and wrap it around the base (not to tight) and bobby pin that bad boy and your ready to go!

Another easy style that works on adding style to a ponytail is adding a braid going into the pony. This can easily be done with different kinds of braids, but you can add that extra dimension with a fishtail braid. Fish tail being one of the easier braids to do as well. So its a win win. 
You start with grabbing your chunks of hair at the hair line, two for fishtail or three for french braid. Then braid back to the parietal or where your head starts to slope down. Grab the rest of your hair to go into the pony (leaving a pieces out to wrap about the elastic), elastic the hair, grab that piece we left out and wrap around the elastic, boom done.

Every girls go-to. its fun, its cute, and its simple. You literally can not go wrong with this look. You start off with smoothing the hair back into a top pony, then fold your hair back and elastic again so you have a puff on top leaving a tail hanging out. wrap that tail around the base and pin that bad boy. Pull out and wispy hairs by your ears to complete the look. 

The fishtail braid, its is trending hard and for a good reason. Its simple, contemporary, cute, and easy. A great braid to rock this summer and literally anytime, you cant go wrong! 
You start off with two chunks of hair were ever you would like to start your braid. Twist one piece over each other back and forth over to your right or left and just tie off.

The crowd braid is an uber cute style, its beautiful and looks like you put more work into it then your actually did. Were all about that. Its one of those styles you can wear messy for clean. 
Were gonna cheat on this style and do it the easy way, go ahead and braid back 4 fishtail braids in the back of your head (leaving room from the scalp to move the braids around). Pull at the braids a little to make the hair flatter and spread out. Grab the middle braids, cross them, and wrap them around the front, pinning the ends down. You should be left with the out side braids, pull the left braid around the back to the right, pin. Pull the right braid around the back to the left and pin into braids (make sure the little tails are tucked into the braid so they aren't visible). This should give you a crown braid with out doing all the hard work. 

Go from a sweaty mess to fabulous fest. Any one of these styles will make your day a little brighter and cooler. Because nothings better then putting up your long hair and acting like its not a problem at all. 

​Sulfates are an agent in hair products that cleans dirt, chemicals, and oil from your hair. That being said it strips the hair quite harshly of its natural oils as well as everything else. Sulfates are found in the forms of sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). SLES is primarily a foaming agent hence it's popularity in shampoo and SDS is a surfactant which strongly removes oils. 

Since sulfates are so aggressive as a striping agent they are generally frowned upon in shampoos and body washes. But since sulfates are a great foaming agent that produces lots of lather, they are still used in lower end cleansing products. Any good shampoo or body wash will say sulfate free, all higher end shampoos will be sulfate free so if you're buying from your salon, don't worry. The “good stuff” is going to contain a  more organic ingredient base. Using natural cleaners to clear and clean the scalp and hair without causing a harsh effect on the hair, you will also get a richer intake of moisture and protein from organic ingredients. ​

Make sure these products are in your beach bag. Or even just your every day you can never be too careful of the sun.

​

Time to put that hair knowledge to test, by revealing the truth about common hair myths and see if they really hold up. 

The sun can lighten hair, but not all hair. It you have lighter hair and spend quite a bit of time outside you may notice some natural highlights, if you have darker hair you make notice the ever so slightly lighter brunette pieces. But the sun will not give you noticeably blonde highlights, it will only only softly lighten. This being said the much darker hair that is very textured will mostly not be affected by the sun due to the natural resistance built into dark hair. the sun can bleach your hair, akin to wood and paint fading. It erodes the pigment slowly over time. So the amount of time in the sun would have to be substantial. In the end, yes, the sun can lighten your hair, but it will not give you notice blonde pieces that you would expect from highlights. So if you want to be blonde don't expect to get anything from the sun, go see your hairdresser.

​

Not all shampoos need to have a big foaming up to get your hair clean, but people visually connect bigger the lather to a better clean. This is occasionally the opposite. Companies know that you want to see the lather and put ingredients to make it as foamy as possible, but clean your hair at a sub par level. So there is actually no connection between lather and how well the shampoo actually works. There are actually some higher end shampoos that don't even lather at all. Don't buy a shampoo solely on how it lathers up and makes massive foam, it probably isn't doing its job. Make sure you get a name brand shampoo. Even though the salon worthy shampoos may be more expensive, they are on a whole other level then the kind you pick up at Walmart. They are more expensive because they are much much better for you then the cheaper products.

​

Good Shampoos and conditioners to use are Replumping. This is a nourishing product for delicate hair, prone to breakage and an hydrating agent, and helps the natural elasticity. Nourishing is a nourishment product to help with severely dry and damaged hair that really hydrates the hair. Melu is another nourishing product that is best with brittle and dry hair. Finally, Love Curl, which is a product that hydrates, adds volume, shine, and improves the manageability of the hair. ​

The color craze has been blowing up, but not everyone one wants to commit to a fun funky color on their entire head. But thanks to the new trend going around you can get your color fix without all the commitment. By having your fun color hidden in some way, they are usually located on the nap of the neck or at the roots making them hidden until you wear your hair up revealing the colors.

The hair is dyed these fun and colorful colors while the rest of the hair is still a natural tone, covering up the the colorful tones making them hidden. Since the natural is still there, you can still pull off a natural look. Or this look could be paired with a spunky color as well, if you just can't choose what color your want, now you don't have to choose, just add all of them!

Feel like trying something whimsical? You don't have to go all out on your hair to achieve an amazing color.

​

​Keratin is the protein that makes up your hair , skin, and nails.
Keratin protects the hair from damage and stress, keratin as an oil cannot be dissolved in water or organic solvents. Keratin is the most important ingredient that makes your hair, so were natural production lacks, you come in. So stock up on those keratin enriched products but choose wisely.
 
Over time the hair decreases in the amount of keratin it holds as the hair grows old. The clock of time ravishes the strength and protein of your hair.  The lack of keratin in the hair makes it dry and prone to breakage. This is why putting keratin back in is so important to keeping your hair healthy. By filling that protein back in your hair makes noticeably healthier shiny hair. You can put keratin back into your hair through a variety of products such as shampoos, conditioners, conditioning products, and styling aids.

​

Before you go grabbing just any ol’ keratin product, you have to look at the other ingredients. Even though the keratin protein is good for you what is mixed with it may not be. Some shampoos may contain formaldehyde in them as well, formaldehyde is a known carcinogen which is a catalyst to cancer. In gas form formaldehyde is toxic but in a liquid base it is drastically less hazardous but should only be handled by professionals that know how safely use those kind of chemicals. 
Another ingredient to stay away from is sulfates, having sulfate free shampoo is key period. Sulfates can damage the hair, and seep moisture away from your hair and scalp. Making it counteractive on the whole hair care.
Last of all like a lot of shampoos, overuse of shampoo can cause loss of moisture of the scalp and potential thinning of the hair.  Make sure that your shampooing routine doesn't excess once a day. Even cutting back to a couple times a week will do you good and replenish your natural oils.
It is important to have a reputable brand of keratin products, to optimize the keratin intake.  Brazilian blowout Acai Anti-frizz shampoo, conditioner and styling products are top of the line and are recommended for keeping hair frizz free and to prolong the keratin treatments. They are also sulfate free and are recommended by most hairdressers. 

​

Then there is keratin treatments which is a bit different from from regular keratin products. A keratin treatment is also know as a Brazilian blow out, it is the act of putting protein back in the hair by raising the cuticles “scales” as much as possible, adds protein in the strands and  heat sealing the proteins in. The treatment involves a high concentrated keratin  shampoo and conditioner that can only be used by professionals. Then the hair is dried and straightened. This treatment not only puts that protein back in your hair, but reduces frizz, gives it shine, with less tangles, and makes the hair more manageable over all.  This treatment is ideal for people who have very frizzy hair, curly moisture lacking hair, and with any unmanageable hair.
At Orrell, we also offer complimentary keratin shampoo and conditioner with every keratin treatment.
