Now that summer has officially started, there’s no stopping you from enjoying this warm season in style! For me, summer is one of the best times to try a new look. This is the time people go on vacations and spend more time at the beach or by the pool. When you lounge by the beach, it is but customary for you to go with the flow and be as “hot or hotter” than the summer heat, is it not?
Start with your hair color. Sometimes, the shade does make all the difference.
At my salon, the hairstylists usually know right by the second you walk in what kind of hair color will suit you primarily by your skin tone. We offer free consultation so please come and drop by Monet Salon or Reflections Salon and we would be more than glad to assist.
At Monet Salon, we take pride in our special blend of hair colors that flatter. We got our inspiration from living in a multi-cultural community of people whose skin tones are as really as varied as they come.
Pictured from left: ETHEREAL APPEAL--Monet Salon uses warm colors of red browns, amber, honey, cinnamon, and rich berries to achieve this shade through its signature blend called “Bohemian Raphsody.” PURE & SIMPLE—this is a must-have hair shade for the sweltering summer, the “Parisian Fantasy.” Monet Salon uses soft highlights and lowlights with a focus on cool blonde shades to powdery light browns. DARK GLAMOUR—a tad on the mysterious side, Monet Salon uses dark rich tones of black, dark brown, plum, dusty blues or blueish greys to achieve the “Oriental Sunset.” Ask about these colors today—Call 213.216.4923!
One of our signature blends is the “Parisian Fantasy” which is a combination of highlights of three, cool shades. Our clients ask for this special blend more than anything.
We also have the “Bohemian Rhapsody” which is consists of carefree, exotic colors such as reds, burgundies, browns and rich berries. This blend suits the typical, tan-skinned Asian woman. It brings out a rich, glowing tan.
Another blend that is growing more and more popular is the signature Monet Salon “Oriental Sunset” which is best for ladies with straight black hair. “Oriental Sunset” is three layers of colors that converge into a beautiful, subtle tone.
After picking the right color for you, next we tackle the hairstyle.
For the summer, you can choose to have a hairstyle that’s choppy, or sleek, or cute, or daring. Our stylist can recommend you several to suit the profile of your face or face shape.
Monet Salon offers sassy styles that conform to the laid-back spirit of summer.
Why not try the Digital Perm—or semi-permanent sexy, savvy waves that is sure to add a little bounce to your days at the beach.
What about Hair Rebonding or going for the extra-sleek look, which is always timeless anyway.
Whatever hairstyle you are in the mood for, don’t forget to end it with the Monet Salon Hair Reborn System to restore your hair’s natural shine and health following the stresses of styling and hair dyes.
