- HighlightsIf we use a permanent color it may last from several weeks to several months depending on the porosity of the hair. Though through that time it will gradually fade. The other issue would be that there would be a re-growth. That is because the hair is growing and as the new hair comes out it will not have any of the artificial color be it lighter or darker. A retouch is recommended every four weeks or so. A semi permanent color only lasts about 4 to 6 weeks. If we have removed the color as with highlights it too will gradually fade and lighten through the growing cycle. Highlights need to be retouched every 8 to 12 weeks depending on the technique used and how much contrast was achieved. There is no way to achieve a temporary highlight.
- Hair ColorThere are many options. The best thing to do is to call and set an appointment for a consultation. There is no charge and by seeing you in person we will assess your skin tone and eye color to determine what color and coloring technique would be best to address your specific desires.
- Color CorrectionColoring: Next to cutting, coloring is our most popular service. Color is one of the most important areas where we work as a team. Whether you are looking for permanent change or a temporary one, we have a coloring approach that will work for you. These include Highlights, Low lights, Permanent Color, Semi Permanent and Corrective Color.
- Hair StraighteningOur whole body changes as we grow. Some of the most noticeable changes that one might notice is: As we grow older our hair tends to thin. The texture tends to get more course as the structure of Grey Hair (or what Mark calls Mature Blonde!) is different. Sometimes Curly hair may lose some of it's curl. And sometimes hair may gain some curl. Getting old is tough. But we work with our clients to maintain a healthy relationship with their hair.
- Permanent Waves$35As far as a negative effect, I can say this. In going through the process of either one of these chemical services, the cuticle is raised and it never settles down completely. That is why we use only the highest quality Color, Perms and Smoothers. Also a quality conditioner should always be used regularly after any chemical service.
- Hair StylingCooperative Hair styling. Teaming up with my clients to help you find a hairstyle that is right for you, the best possible look based upon a number of considerations. I begin by observing your hair texture (whether it's fine or course, curly or straight), root direction, facial shape and structure. Then we discuss your lifestyle, what is your profession? What do you do for fun? How much time do you have to style your hair everyday? Certain styles are wash and wear, while others require more attention and home maintenance. Working together we will design a style around you. Then we move on to the shampooing and conditioning of your hair using quality hair products for your hair type and texture. At Mark of Excellence I do not believe that one shampoo fits all. We follow by the actual cutting and styling of your hair. Lastly and most important is maintenance we explain and demonstrate the techniques to maintain your hairstyle at home with the least amount of effort. This may include proper washing drying and brushing as well as the correct application of gel, spray, mousse or pomade.
