Some of the top fancy color Trends as per Madame Claude of Claude Thomas Salon

THE TOP 10 FANTASY HAIRCOLOR TRENDS
It's a magical, dreamy and funky time in hair color trends. Wearing not just one, but a whole rainbow of colors isn’t so shocking anymore.
Looking for some outside-of-the-box hair color ideas for your next hair service?
Top Fantasy Trends
 
1. OPAL HAIR

Just like the gemstone, opal hair plays on many colors of the rainbow all at once. For this look, your colorist will first lighten your hair to a pearl shade (almost gray), add toner and then follow it up with an application of pastel shades throughout the lengths of the hair. The result is iridescent hair with a soft metallic finish that’ll have you noticing a different color at every angle.
This technique is  called fluid hair painting. The effect is more natural-looking hair color.  

2. OIL SLICK HAIR

 This trend proves you don’t have to go super light or be blonde to pull off a rainbow of colors. With oil slick hair, dark hair is the backdrop for iridescence. Here, cool shades of green, purple, yellow and blue hair dye are applied so they resemble the pretty swirl of rainbow colors seen atop an oil slick. If you have super dark hair, your colorist may apply lightener and toner on your hair before applying the hair dye.

3. UNDER LIGHTS


Consider this the sneaky way to pull off a wild hairstyle. Instead of showcasing your fantasy color in plain view, with under lights, the base color is hidden is hidden below the top layers of hair—and people who have been wearing this trend have opted for a full rainbow of colors, no less.
To get under lights, your stylist pins up the top layers of your hair (from around the tops of your ears and above) and only bleaches and colors the remaining layers of hair underneath. To flaunt under lights, you can put your hair in an updo or half-up style, but as soon as you undo your hair and wear it down, your under lights won’t be as noticeable anymore.

4. MERMAID HAIR


 No, we’re not talking about Princess Ariel. The mermaid hair trend is a blend of vibrant, cool-toned, sea-inspired colors like sea foam green, cerulean, turquoise and even magenta and orchid. Getting mermaid hair usually requires lifting hair until it’s light enough to display the brighter colors. Then hair dye gets added (hair painting is a great technique for this).

5. SUNSET HAIR

Another more specific variant of rainbow hair, sunset hair looks exactly like it sounds—a hair color that blends the colors of the sunset, including bright red, orange and deep purple. It’s a vibrant, warm and definitely bold hair color that may require bleaching and can also be achieved through hair painting.

6. PASTEL HAIR

Soft, candy-colored shades of pale pink, baby blue, mint green or lilac define this ultra feminine-looking hair color. To get pastel hair, hair may need to be bleached until it’s light enough to show the various shades. Then a colorist paints the hair with pastel-colored hair dye.

7. ROSE GOLD HAIR

This girly, romantic hair color is a blend of gold and copper. To achieve rose gold hair, your colorist will lighten your hair via bleaching or painting until it reaches a golden shade. Afterward, a tinted gloss is applied to your hair to give it the rose gold or golden-copper shade.

8. SILVER HAIR

 Thanks to the silver hair trend, it’s now cool to go gray—no matter what age you are. While it’s certainly on the subtle end of the fantasy hair color spectrum, it’s still quite attention-grabbing. To rock this trend, your colorist may bleach your hair very light first, then add toner, and then apply hair dye to give hair a silver hue.
9. DIP DYE HAIR

In this hair-coloring technique, the ends of your hair look like they’ve been dipped in a contrasting color. Currently, the trend is dip dyeing hair in bright colors like hot pink. Although both dip dye and ombre hair coloring feature a different shade at the roots and a different shade at the ends, the main difference is in the middle color. In ombre, the middle color is similar to the color of the roots and ends, while in dip dye, there is no middle color.

10. RAINBOW BANGS

For those not ready to commit to coloring their entire head of hair, the rainbow bangs trend may be the way to go. Here, bangs are dyed a bright range of colors, bringing much attention to the center of the face.  

Whichever fantasy hair color you choose, don’t forget to employ a haircare routine to keep your hair color looking fab as long as possible. The Redken Color Extend Magnetics line is all about protecting hair color and promoting shine. Use the Color Extend Magnetics Sulfate-Free Shampoo to keep your hair color looking vibrant since a sulfate free shampoo is gentler on color-treated hair.

Going blonde or blonder? What Claude Thomas Salon recommends

THE ONE SERVICE EVERY HAIRCOLOR ADDICT NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT

Despite what you may think, being a hair color chameleon doesn’t mean you have to live with dry, damaged hair.
 In fact, there is one hair bonding service that every color addict needs to know if they’re looking to help maintain their hair health: pH-Bonder.

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR HAIR DURING A PROFESSIONAL SALON SERVICE USING BLEACH?

In order to color your strands, your stylist has to lighten your hair to deposit the haircolor. Each time hair is bleached, the bonds that support the hair strand can weaken.

WHY DOES HAIR GET DAMAGED?

If the hair isn’t protected during chemical services such as lightning, the strands can become brittle, dry, or even break off.
 While there are several ways to help restore the look of damaged hair, your stylist can also help you protect the hair from this damage.

HOW DO I PROTECT MY HAIR?

In order to protect your hair from this type of damage, you need to ensure that your hair is protected during any type of lightening service. This is where pH-Bonder comes into play.
pH-Bonder is a two-step system used in the salon that works to protect the integrity of the hair’s bonds during professional technical services.

SO, WHAT’S PH-BONDER GOING TO DO?
This solution ultimately works to help protect against hair breakage, while also helping to maintain hair’s strength, elasticity, smoothness, and shine. pH-Bonder has the power to do all of this while protecting your hair’s bonds.

WHAT ARE HAIR BONDS?
Don’t know what hair bonds are? Basically, they’re tiny mechanisms that act as your hair’s internal support structure. They are the components that help to keep hair strong and intact. When pH-Bonder is used during your coloring service, it acts as a shield to help ward off any potential damage.
Also, the product won’t increase your processing time, so you don’t even have to spend more time in the salon. How cool is that?

WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE PH-BONDER SERVICE?

During the service, your stylist will add the Bond Protecting Additive into the bleach and apply it to your strands as you normally would. After the bleach has processed, your stylist will take you to the shampoo bowl and apply the Fiber Restorative Pre-Wash Concentrate. This pre-wash will help to restore the hair fiber and smooth the hair’s cuticle for improved strength, shine, and softness after the technical service.
After the pre-wash soaks for 10 minutes, your stylist will rinse and style as normal. It’s that easy!
The best part? You don’t have to book an extra appointment in order to get the service. In fact, this simple two-step system is done in the salon during your typical appointment and can be directly added to the bleach. As the system is formulated to work synergistically to help keep the hair strong during technical services, pH-Bonder can be added directly without affecting the end result.


CAN I PROTECT MY HAIR BONDS AT-HOME?
Not only is pH-Bonder an in-salon service, but there is also a Post-Service Perfector that helps to maintain the hair’s natural pH at home. This once-a-week treatment is designed to keep your hair fiber protected and balanced in-between appointments.

SO, WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?

pH-Bonder is the bodyguard that your hair needs to help keep breakage at bay. As Redken Education Development Manager, Siddeeqah Raoof puts it, pH-Bonder is the agent that’s going to help to keep your hair in a safer place. “pH-Bonder acts as a buffering agent to help prevent damage from happening. So, that additive is going into the cuticle of the hair to help prevent that oxidative stress from occurring,” states Raoof.

HOW CAN I ASK MY HAIR COLORIST TO USE PH BONDER?
pH-Bonder was designed to make your hairstylist's life easier while keeping your hair as strong as possible during a hair color or lightening service. There is no need for your colorist to bump up developer time. Starting in October 2018, the process gets even easier with the introduction of Flashlift Bonder Inside, a lightener that lifts hair up to 8 levels with pH-Bonder bond-protecting technology built right into the lightener formula.

Claude Thomas wants you to know :YOU WANT TO GO BLONDE? 10 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE LIGHTENING OR BLEACHING YOUR HAIR

YOU WANT TO GO BLONDE? 10 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE LIGHTENING OR BLEACHING YOUR HAIR

Blonde hair, don’t care? Not so much.
 Blonde hair can be higher maintenance and going (and staying) blonde requires some TLC in order to stay looking fabulous. 
So, if you're considering going blonde for the first time or simply want to change up your already blonde strands, here are 10 things that you should know before lightening or bleaching your hair.

1. YOUR NATURAL HAIRCOLOR MATTERS

If your hair color is naturally very dark, your hair stylist may suggest a transition plan for your hair color journey. When a stylist does this, they are considering your hair’s overall health as well as its ability to lift or lighten. While going from darker strands to bright blonde is possible to do in one session, it might not be the best decision for the overall health of your hair.

2. YOUR HAIR WILL NEED SOME TLC

 Excessive bleaching can lead to weaker strands. Give them a pick-me-up by treating your hair to a hydrating hair mask. These masks can replenish your hair’s moisture and help restore balance to your strands. Looking for a more long-lasting approach to hair health? Ask your stylist to use a hair bonding additive or service, like pH-Bonder, during your next appointment. This handy additive works as part of a system to protect the integrity of your hair bonds helping your hair to stay strong and more resilient to damage during the technical service. Keep caring about your strands long after your salon visit by using the pH-Bonder Post-Service Perfector. This in-shower treatment helps to restore and reinforce your bonds and keep them strong in-between your appointments.

3. YOU HAVE BLONDE OPTIONS

Maintaining your blonde strands will require some quality time with your hair stylist. If you’re looking for a smaller commitment on the blonde spectrum, ask your stylist about balayage. This technique uses darker colors on your roots and scalp while keeping the ends bright and blonde. It’s perfect for those who don’t want the hassle of root maintenance, while also keeping their strands beautifully blonde.

4. YOU’LL NEED TO UPGRADE YOUR HAIRCARE ROUTINE

Color-treated blondes know that any shampoo simply won’t do. Once your hair is blonde, it will need its own army of products to stay that way. Custom toning conditioners are a must for keeping your blonde locks looking shiny and vibrant. These powerhouse conditioners are a blonde’s best friend when it comes to fighting off dulling ends and brassy roots. 

5. AVOID THE URGE TO DIY

While DIYs are great for crafty home décor, they aren’t so great for brightening your strands. While it may seem like a good idea at the time, no one wants to end up with brassy strands or mismatched highlights. Leave hair coloring to the professionals and trust them to take your strands to newer, blonder heights without the DIY mishaps.

6. THE TERM “BLONDE” ISN’T UNIVERSAL

When it comes to going blonde, bringing a photo in for reference is always your best bet. While “blonde” may mean the quintessential icy white strands of a platinum blonde to you, for your stylist it may mean golden blonde tones and a deeper base. Keep everyone on the same page during your next color appointment by bringing in photos for your stylist. Be sure to bring enough visuals to show them exactly what you do and do not want in terms of your hair color.

7. YOUR SKIN TONE SHOULD AFFECT YOUR COLOR CHOICE


If you’re unsure about which shade of blonde to choose, try taking your skin tone into account. Typically, those with paler or cooler skin tones look stunning with ashy, pearlescent shades, while those with warmer skin tones simply slay with more golden hues.

8. YOU MIGHT NEED TO CHANGE YOUR MAKEUP

 For some, going blonde may mean a change in their makeup choices. Whether it’s swapping out shades of your eyebrow pencil or opting for newer colors of eyeliner, there are plenty of ways that going blonde could affect your makeup look. If you’re wondering what colors work best for your new haircolor, head to your nearest department store for a quick makeup consultation. It’s an easy way to discover what new colors may be right for you.

9. YOUR HAIR TEXTURE MIGHT CHANGE

Over time, bleaching can cause your natural hair texture to change. Those with curls may notice that their ends are straighter as their strands have become drier. On the opposite end, those with naturally straight hair may notice more volume as their hair’s cuticle has been roughened up.

10. BE HONEST WITH YOUR STYLIST

While it may be hard to admit, your stylist needs to know if you have used at-home hair color before your in-salon appointment. Knowing just how much your hair has been previously colored can help your stylist adjust your hair color formula to get the best result for you.
Still wondering if going blonde is right for you? Chat with your Redken stylist to see if being a blonde is right for you.
  



Claude Thomas salon and Spa 7 Questions to ask your colorist before you color your hair

7 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR HAIRSTYLIST
 BEFORE YOU COLOR YOUR HAIR

A hair color appointment shouldn’t be a confusing experience.  Before you get swept up in Google searches, turn to your stylist. Since they have worked with your hair before, they understand your hair care concerns and what styles will look best on you. Remember, you (probably) aren’t the first client your stylist has ever worked with. They understand that clients are concerned about the look and feel of their hair. Asking questions is a normal part of any hair color consultation. Not sure what to ask? Here are a few topics to discuss with your hairstylist before your next color appointment.

1.       DOES THIS COLOR WORK FOR ME?  

 Choosing the right hair color is about much more than liking a photo on Instagram. From eye color to skin tone, there are several factors that go into determining if a hair color is right for you.

For instance, richer chestnut browns and golden highlights tend to look amazing on those with warmer skin tones. Conversely, those with more pink in their complexions tend to look lovely with ashy blonde hair or bolder silvers.
However, this doesn’t mean that you have to stay away from certain color families all together. All it means is that if you want a particular color range or trend, your stylist can walk you through which particular shades will look best on you.

2. WHAT IS THE MAINTENANCE LIKE FOR THIS HAIRCOLOR/TREND?

Once you’ve decided on a shade, it’s time to learn about upkeep. While a stunning, vibrant red may seem like the perfect option, you’ll need to decide if you’re willing to do the legwork to maintain such a dramatic shade. The hair colors that require the most maintenance and upkeep are red shades, ashy tones, silvers, pearls, and grays. Due to their color vibrancy and tendency to oxidize over time, these shades require more frequent salon visits.
If you're looking for less fuss over your strands, then balayage or ombré should be considered. Both styles focus on darker roots and lighter ends, which means less noticeable roots or regrowth over time.

3. WHAT SHOULD I DO AT HOME TO MAINTAIN MY HAIRCOLOR?

At-home color care is extremely important if you want to maintain the vibrancy, shine, and tone of your hair color. Chatting with your stylist about the specific products to use and steps to take is a sure-fire way to help keep the integrity of your hair color. For instance, your stylist may suggest switching your daily shampoo from a deeper cleansing option to one that is color-safe and free of sulfates. Color-safe and sulfate-free shampoos are formulated to help prolong the life of your hair color. While this change may seem small, it will work wonders for the longevity of your hair color
.
4. HOW LONG WILL THE RESULTS LAST?

 While hair color maintenance is important, it’s also good to understand the timeline of the hair color itself. Some colors may last longer on the hair, while others tend to fade more quickly. It all comes down to how well your hair type can hold color as well as the texture of the hair itself. Talking through this point with your stylist will help you to better understand the shelf life of your soon-to-be hair color
.
5. CAN THE HAIRCOLOR CAUSE IRRITATION?
 
Everyone’s skin reacts differently to different stimulants, chemicals, and products. If you’re aware of a certain skin condition or sensitivity, be sure to let your stylist know beforehand. Having this conversation prior to color application will ensure that your stylist uses products that are safest for you.

6. HOW OFTEN SHOULD I WASH MY HAIR? 

 Once your hair is colored, your haircare routine might need to change. In order to keep up with this new development, be sure to ask your stylist how often you should cleanse your hair. While over-washing can lead to fading color, lack of cleansing can lead to product buildup. Find the perfect balance for your hair care routine by discussing your hair type and porosity with your stylist.

7. HOW LONG SHOULD I EXPECT THE COLORING PROCESS TO BE?

 While this may seem like a pretty straightforward question, it’s something that every client should know in advance. Different hair services take different lengths of time to process. For instance, a gloss like Shades EQ takes around 20 minutes. This service is great if you’re coloring your hair for the first time since it doesn’t require a major time or color commitment. If you want a longer lasting look, a highlighting or lowlighting service might be right for you, but plan to carve out a few hours for the salon. To really plan your day accordingly, make sure to ask how much time you should allow when you book your color appointment.

Claude Thomas Salon and Spa Madame Claude's 2018 hair color trends

There’s no better confidence booster than a hair color refresh. 
The brown hair today is all about gorgeous brunette hues:  
coffee latté to chocolate and everything in between. 
The popular looks are warm to cool to natural.

IF YOU WANT A WARM, SUBTLE BRUNETTE LOOK
COFFEE LATTÉ HAIR

What better way to transition hair than with a balayage blend of color? A rooty coffee latté look is carefree and appears effortless. To make sure you and your colorist are both on the same page I advise bringing a picture with you during your initial consultation. We love to see pictures and preferably the more, the better. To help keep your coffee latté hair color looking fresh all season long, we recommend stopping in to see your colorist between appointments for an all-over glaze with Shades EQ hair gloss to maintain your hair color's shine and sparkle.   




CHOCOLATE BROWN HAIRCOLOR

When it comes to finding a beautifully rich hair color, chocolate works as a flattering wash of all-over color.  In the past, we've had red-violet and auburn brunettes, but this year we’re giving way to a true deep neutral brunette color. [We’ve seen] all over the runways, as well as at the most recent award shows, that brunettes have been living on the dark side. Brunette celebrities have either been wearing their hair dark and monochromatic, or very subtle and light toward the ends. It’s a timeless and a classic trend

Caramel Copper brunette 

What makes hair color with caramel and copper tones so appealing is its ability to instantly brighten up and warm your complexion.  The key when it comes to determining how well the hair color will suit your overall look, you need to know which brunette hair color complements your skin tone. This will determine if warm or cool tones work for you and would be your base color as a brunette. Our stylist will be able to help you confirm what your skin undertones are. 


Ashy brunette

If there’s one hair color trend we can’t get enough of, it’s the ashy brunette look. The ashy brunette hair is a trend is everywhere this season. To ensure the richest tones possible for your hair, we may need to apply a toner like Shades EQ .  Our colorists may need to apply Shades EQ gloss to your hair two or three times to take you to the desired level you're looking for. This overlaying of color will ensure a long-lasting look, as well as tons of sexy shine.. 


Brunette with Vivids accent

Sometimes a bold pop of color can be exactly what you need. A peek-a-boo silver strand of hair against a brunette base color makes for a striking contrast in this Smokey Ombré. The new Smokey Ombré trend is perfect for those who want to mix things up. It can be customized perfectly for you. It's gorgeous and smoking hot  Alternatively, you can incorporate vivid colors into your brunette look, but still keep it subtle. “When hair is dark but has rich blues, purples or greens strategically placed in the hair, it creates an optical illusion. At first glance, the hair may look dark, but as the light hits it in different places, the rich jewel tones shine from the surface.


LIVED IN Bronde Hair

The lived-in bronde hair inspires major envy for its low-maintenance and equally stylish flair. The look is all about confidently rocking overgrown roots. “A lot of ‘bronding’ has resurfaced. There’s now the idea of a blonde and brunette living on the same palette...the subtle shadow roots that have been hot for a few years are getting deeper and longer. It seems like a nod back to ombré   If you’re still dealing with the aftermath that a rough summer may have had on your blonde hair color, this is a gorgeous look for easing the transition to darker brunette hair.


Play up your natural brown

We understand that sometimes you want to update your look without making a drastic change.  There are a few things you can do. We recommend looking into adding a few subtle accents to your hair with baby lights to enrich your natural base color. The baby lights hair color technique uses thin, subtle highlights to frame the face or add dimension to a look.  Also using Shades EQ gloss on your hair for a toning effect that pumps up the shine and enhances your natural brunette hue. “If you’re looking to just liven up your natural brunette hair shade, a gloss is the way to go. Even adding some copper or red Shades EQ gloss formulas on the mid-lengths to ends of the hair will richen up the color without being too bold.”

FIREY RED OMBRE HAIR


This fiery red ombre hair color makes a bold statement. Whether you’ve been rocking red hair ever since you can remember or are going red for the first time, it’s a great way to keep your look bright and vibrant. The last thing that you want when rocking red hair is a dull color. To keep your ombre red hair looking radiant for up to four weeks, use the Color Extend Magnetics System. The sulfate-free shampoo, conditioner, and mask won’t strip away your hair color which means you can show off your ombre red hair longer. 
Blonde ends are a fun complement to red hair. To get the look, ask your stylist to keep your hair color bright and bold red at the crown and go lighter on the bottom.

This creates a look that is more natural and a sun-kissed effect. Bouncy, textured hair looks great with this hair color, which you can create by using a texture treatment spray.  


An icy blonde ombre is an eye-catcher.  This look involves a lot of contrast since it starts off with nearly black roots at the top, then transitions into ash brown hair color in the middle and bright blonde at the ends. There’s a lot going on with this hair color, but the shades blend into each other beautifully, o you won’t be able to tell where one haircolor begins and ends.
