Kim Vo has a way about him; offering teaching moments in the lightest situations.  One of my favorite quotes from the style guru was concerning curly hair, saying “curly hair is EXPENSIVE HAIR!!,” a point he reinforced throughout his time at Beauty Collection.   As a curly girl myself, I never realized how accurate of a statement that was – we spend so much money on products to control the curl, tame the curl, flatten the curl, accentuate the curl; the list goes on and on.

Another gem that Kim Vo dropped on the crowd was a new color trick that is appropriate for any hair color and type – the art of ombre.

Ombre - Creating a dark root that is followed by extending downward to a lighter tip.  Regardless of the shade of your hair, you can achieve the ombre color by simply adding a touch of sun-kissed color at the ends of each built in layer.  Instead of going to get your roots done every 5-6 weeks, your natural color will continue to come in – making your ombre’d hair look better and better the more time that goes by.  How much more could a simple girl ask for?

Kim Vo also touched on the misconception of semi-permanent hair color.  “Most people think that semi-permanent hair will give you more or a shine or deep sheen.  Wrong!  Semi-permanent is actually more of a stain than a sheen, often leaving your hair looking dull and flat.”

If you have added layers, ombre and the perfect color and are STILL not happy, why not try texture lights?  Kim Vo suggests the simple addition to bring out the beauty that is inside of you.  To add texture lights, all you have to do is add a complimentary color to the frame of your face, using very very thin partitions.  Each texture light should only be 4-8 strands, keeping the look fresh and natural for the Summer.
