Take
a Fake-ation!

for hair care + skin care (includes spray tanning, make-up, and waxing) +
nail care (including our new Shellac manicures) and receive 20%
off! You

feet!

Tip of the Month for flat hair: The temperature outside is just beginning to rise, and there may be some precipitation, but generally we can only count on the wind. So what do you do when your hair is flat and full of static? Use products that add volume to your hair. Generally these also calm the strands a bit so you won't look too wild. To help you help yourself, these recommended products are on sale this month for 20% off.

If your hair is full of static electricity and is flyaway, we have many great moisturizing conditioners from Aveda, Paul Mitchell, and DevaCurl. And here's a tip: use just a bit of any conditioner like hand cream, then finger comb your hair. Voila: softer hands and silkier hair!
Do you ever get those persistent and painful cracks in the skin surrounding your fingernails? Try a Thermasoft treatment. These are individual gloves (we have them for your feet too) packed with warm moisturizers. Include the treatment while you're getting a haircut, or while your color is processing, or even during a facial.

Eyelash Extensions are here. Jenn has perfected her technique; just check out the very flattering and totally natural looking eyelashes on one of our staff on the Services page of this website.

Tip of the Month - Your hair will be less fly-away if you use a drop (literally, the size of a split pea) of conditioner, combing it through and leaving it on after a shampoo. You save time because there’s no second rinse, you save money because you use so little, and your hands feel great because the conditioner acts like a hand cream for you. Try it!

We've been getting some requests for the new Keratin Straightening Treatment but we are unable to offer it at this time. This is because there are truly no formulas that we have found that are totally safe. Many products that are marketed as 'formaldehyde-free' still contain formalin. This chemical is non-toxic on its own, however, when it is heated with a flat iron as it is for the treatment, the formalin releases formaldehyde gas. The experts in the salon industry are advising that both the person doing the treatment and the client getting the treatment wear gas masks during this service! This is definitely not in keeping with Fresh Hair's entire natural philosophy! Check out hubpages.com and many other sources for more information.

Here are some solutions
for when your hair is flyaway and full of static, your skin itches, and your
nails and cuticles crack with the lack of moisture:
For your hair, get a deep
conditioning treatment in the salon under a warm dryer.
Continue the benefits at home by actually leaving a small amount of
moisturizing conditioner on your hair.
For your skin, we have some great creams for
sale: Aveda Hand Relief and Aveda Foot Relief, Paul Mitchell Lemongrass
Energizing Body Butter and Paul Mitchell Lavender Relaxing Body Balm.
All of these have light pleasing fragrances and absorb completely.
For your nails, Aveda makes a terrific Cuticle
Oil. Massage it in once a day
and keep both your nails and your cuticles free of cracks!
This month we are offering you $10 off a facial. This is another way to deeply hydrate your skin, and get a relaxing one and a half hours too. Or if your hands really need the moisturizing, with a facial we will give you a FREE Thermasoft hand treatment. Go to www.freshhair.com/services.htm for more information.
For Valentine’s Day,
consider giving a Gift Card to your sweetheart for a luxurious time in the
salon!
Remember that our Referral Contest goes from January until June 30th. If you send us six new clients during this time, we will give you a $500 Gift Card! If less than six new clients say that you sent them, you will still get $5 off for each new referral.

we’re always happy to see you.

closed for Labor Day weekend on both Saturday August 31st and

Fresh Hair will be closed for
renovations from July 4 -13. The
salon will be painted and the floors buffed, and we have a few other new
looks that you’ll have to come by to see!
We want to let you know so you don’t wait to make an appointment
during those days.
To prepare for the aforementioned renovations, we need to sell off as much as possible so that we don't have to pack it away. Please help us while you get yourself and your loved ones some special deals! Almost every retail item is 25% off all month!
We encourage you to try our
Mystic Tan spray tanning, and so we are offering the following deals: a
single session, usually $25, this month is only $20.
Three sessions, usually $60, this month is only $45 but you must use
them by the end of August. Ten

healthy and look good! (You can
also find this information on the Bargain Page of the new Lola Magazine).

TIP OF THE MONTH
You’re probably aware that your haircolor fades in the sun.
Did you know that there are sunscreens for the hair? Come
by and look for the little yellow suns on specific shampoos, conditioners,
and styling aids that point out which of our products will protect your hair
from UVA and UVB rays.

We
make a difference every day. Fresh
Hair uses water warmed by the sun via the solar thermal panels on our roof
that heats the water that’s used when we shampoo your hair. Also, we have
changed over to Compact Florescent light bulbs. And we recycle as much as we
can, doing our part to keep the planet healthy.
Tina
has returned and facials are $10 off (Teen Facials are $5 off) all April!
We also hope that you will come by to see the new cosmetic colors
we’re launching! In May
we’ll be having another ‘make-over evening ‘.
Stay tuned!

award-winning nail technician Michelle has returned after many weeks so you

your hands!
In
our Mystic Tan spray tanning booth, a single session is $25, but save money

TIP OF THE MONTH For the past few months we’ve been offering solutions for dry hair, skin, and nails. We aren’t quite out of the woods yet, but April’s showers may require humidity-resistant products like Aveda’s Smooth Infusion line of shampoo, conditioner, and a style-prep smoother. Paul Mitchell’s Super Skinny Serum and MOP (Modern Organic Products) D-Curl also keep your hair sleek by holding the frizzies at bay.

If
you feel abnormally pale, our Mystic Tan spray tanning will perk you right
up! Its safe, its easy, and its only $20 this month! (thats $5 off the
regular price).
TIP
OF THE MONTH Hair
is negatively charged. Brushing the hair creates a negative charge on the
brush too. Like charges repel,
so then each hair strand tries to get away from the
others and stands up. Using an
ionic blowdryer helps prevent static electricity by producing positive ions
that cancel the charges on the hair. Fresh
Hair sells some very cute ionic blowdryers for only $40!
See
them on the shelf above the hairbrushes.

Sadly for us but good for her, Erica who has been our Salon Coordinator for the last couple of years has left us to pursue an advanced academic career. To fill Erica’s shoes we have hired Krisann. And Tiffany has stepped up to the plate to be the Salon Coordinator.
TIP OF THE MONTH: To make it easier to apply a lipliner or eyeliner pencil, soften it by warming it up! Use a blowdryer, or even keep it in your palm or close to your body for just a few minutes. (Get more tips at our make-over night! See above)

There is no DBP, toluene or formaldehyde in their new shades. For much more information, go to www.opi.com, click on Beauty Associations, and click on OPI Cares for product safety information.

Joy breaks through the wall to the addition.
After much anticipation, we are pleased to announce the opening of Fresh Hair's expansion!
Always forward looking, Fresh Hair has taken advantage of recently vacated space to install two new structures and rearrange the salon in a less crowded manner. In the new space, we now have a backwash, an ergonomically correct shampoo sink that makes both the client and the hairdresser more comfortable. The hairdryers have been moved out of the nail care area into this new adjacent room so no one is crowded or waiting. The nail care area will now be able to accommodate a luxurious spa-like chair for the wonderful experience of pedicures.
