Anti-Aging Tips for Thinning Eyebrows

When we think about aging,  the first thing that comes to mind is wrinkles. But there's another issue that we often ignore, one that adds years to our age even way before our first wrinkle appears.  

Thinning Eyebrows

Loss of eyebrow hair can affect most of us early. As soon as our 30's and can peak as soon as age 45. And if you've tweezed avidly at any point in your life, chances are you will be one of those who would be hit hardest. While eyebrow loss is difficult to stop, there are simple ways to get back fuller, more youthful eyebrows and will not require needles or any surgery at all.


HOW TO DEAL WITH AGING EYEBROWS
Whether your eyebrows are thinning, graying or fading, these three simple tips will help you restore fuller eyebrows and regain a youthful-looking appearance. 

1     Put the Tweezers Down
       The first thing you need to do is to give your eyebrow hairs a break. Tweezing or plucking your eyebrows can create more damage, so let a professional (esthetician)  who knows what hair to      address. Give your eyebrows some time to regrow back, and if it needs grooming, it’s best to leave the plucking to the professionals. 

 2 Shape Accordingly
        Don’t let trends dictate your eyebrow shape. What looks good on others,
 for instance your favorite   celeb, may not necessarily look good on you.
 Your best brow shape depends largely on the shape of your face,
 your brow line and the shape of your eyes.
 Once you know your facial shape, shape your brows in a way that will enhance it.
     Our esthetician can help you discover that perfect brow shape for you

 3  Forget Pencils and Shadows
      Nowadays, it’s not uncommon to find makeup products—like brow pencils and shadows—      designed to fill in gaps and give you the look of thicker eyebrows. 
However, drawn-in brows look flat and unnatural. 

So what can you use to make your eyebrows look like they’re really yours? 
Answer:  Smart Brow

         Enter: SmartBrow which, as it's name suggests, is an innovative way to regain fuller more youthful brows.

What sets it apart from pencils and powders is it's unique formulation, which leverages polymers and binds microscopic hair like fibers to your existing brow. 


It fills in any thinning or sparse spots, making your eyebrow look naturally full.

The best thing about it is:
It is semi-permanent, meaning it won't budge or smudge or transfer even after sweating or bathing, but can be easily removed with it's corresponding cleanser. 
How easy is that?

        

The "next best thing" about all of this is:---- 
it is at Claude Thomas,
 where we will demonstrate how it works and show you your perfect shape for your perfect brow! 

And this month it is 10% off by mentioning reading this blog

Also featuring our other new product that actually grows new eyelashes  and eyebrows

2015 Grammys shows new Trends such as the Lobs, IT Bobs, Short Styles, and Loose Waves


The 2015 Grammy Awards featured styles I’ ve been excited about and  some editorial trends
The lobs, the it Bobs, short hair are back  and loose waves for long hair as  seen on the red carpet  These new looks are still cool and casual enough for any of our clients to be inspiried to the newest styles in hair
I am also excited to see wigs and hair pieces and add on hair and yes, extensions are still smoking hot!!. Catch the wave of wigs and the like, to change your hair on a whim or make it match a new outfit. Break the hair chains that bind us and look to all the possibilities for a change for a day or just a moment.


  
Lobs: Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian and Katy Perry

The Grammys shows the that the tousled lob or It Bob is in as it gets.  Perry showcased a hard-to-miss wavy, lilac lob.  And the best part of it all…it was a wig….VERY COOL!
Interested in rocking the look more permanently, we have the Pravana color  and the expertise to create that cut design and  color
 Swift’s blonde lob with heavy side bangs gave way to her teal eyeliner and pink lips
Kardashian’s cut  'IT Bob'  gives me evidence that this “IT” is not on the way out anytime soon.
Kardashian was going for a very current, “model-y” look.
This look seems to be inspired by Kate Moss's “It” which is done in  edgy waves.


And Ora’s cropped, platinum blonde ’do was a favorite of the night. The pieced out, Funky-Punky, swept fringe style has all the drama of a short cut, with the disconnected longer pieces offer versatility.
Jessie J’s sleek, straight, side-parted style was simplistic, chic and stylish.
 The Disney star Zendaya debuted her new somewhat of  Mia Farrow-esque pixie cut, and the best part of it all it was a Wig…yes, it was a wig! I respect a girl that takes a risk with her hair – even if it’s only for a night.
Loose Waves: Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Anna Kendrick



Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, and Anna Kendrick all sported with luscious loose waves.
Lady Gaga with glamorous waves in a silvery hue with a hint of lilac. Beyoncé’s long locks were styled into the perfect mermaid waves.
 And Anna Kendrick paired her men’s wear clothing look with side-swept sexy waves with modern update and added texture



: Iggy Azalea and Sia

Also worth mentioning are the less conventional looks of the night. Iggy Azalea’s crown braid was compared to both a bird’s nest and challah bread, but for those looking to go bold, we have that expertise to get you there.

On an even more out-there note, singer-songwriter Sia is  wearing a comically over-sized platinum wig with heavy bangs that hid her face. She was accompanied by 12-year-old Maggie Ziegler of ‘Dance Moms’ fame who was dressed like Sia’s mini-me clone and wore similar  white crimped wig. 


All of the Claude Thomas’s stylists are up to date in all the expertise for the  latest  trends in hair and hair coloring. Also our Estheticians are amazing with makeup and eyelash extensions.  We encourage all our clients to show us on your phone, mobile devices  or pictures, your inspirations of your envisioned  look for yourself. We also have any method of hair extensions, hair add-ons or wigs to go to any level  you want
.
 We always have the red carpet out for all our clients to strut down.

Newest Trends of Hair and Makeup for the Winter of 2014-2015

Bobs and Lobs: Lucy Hale

Lucy Hale's lob is a perfect fit for her face shape and hits right between her collarbone and shoulders. I love how it is styled with waves that don't try too hard; they keep her looking youthful without overly young—a spot-on style for a 20-something. And those lips? 
Bobs and Lobs: Taylor Schilling

Take note: wavy lobs with the thinner side tucked behind the ear = instant chic. Taylor Schilling's asymmetrical hair balances her one-shouldered dress. We see what you did there.
Bobs and Lobs: Taylor Swift & Karlie Kloss
Every time I see these blonde, statuesque beauties, I do a double take. Both Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss are keeping their coifs shorter lately.. Swift's style has a gentler wave and some side-bang, whereas Kloss' hair is longer and features a bit more curl.  It works for both of them.

Texture Takeover: Zendaya
This starlet isn't afraid to make a statement with her red-carpet look. I almost didn't notice her tummy-baring outfit.  And that touch of 90s is just enough. I really admire her amazing curls. You Go Girl.
Texture Takeover: Jordin Sparks
In Jordin Sparks' case, I think more is more. The curls, the sombre color,  plunging sequined gown and septum piercing are all statement-making looks.  The dress and hair even have me thinking she was channeling a little bit of Diana Ross
..
Texture Takeover: Diana Ross
I would expect nothing less from this legendary lady, and she clearly hasn't become any less fierce with time.
Amazing, beautiful and class through and through. 

Fall and winter are wonderful times to break out deep, highly pigmented lip color, and AMAs stars did not disappoint.
 Olivia Munn wore an intense hue that had me thinking of Bordeaux and berries.

Bold Lip: Kylie Jenner
The Jenner-Kardashian clan are nothing if not trendsetters (whether you like them or not). The youngest sister, 17-year-old Kylie Jenner, stunned with red-brown lips and her infamous exaggerated lipline; the color was a nearly perfect match for her plunging dress.

Bold Lip: Lucy Hale
Hale was on her game, from head to toe. Lucy lands a spot in another trending category for her burgundy lips that seem the perfect shade for her black dress.
Nude Lip: Jennifer Lopez
 J.Lo seems to never ever age?  The forever-young Lopez didn't need to do too much with her lip color; between her incredibly-fit dress and artfully smudged eye makeup, a nude lip was just what she needed.

Nude Lip: Kendall Jenner
Another Kardashian-Jenner clan.  Model Kendall Jenner looked effortless in the way that models tend to look with simple, center-parted hair and a light lip.
Nude Lip: Dianna Agron
.
Nude Lip: Dianna Agron
Another of  trendsetting troupe is actress Dianna Agron. Agron tends to hop between romantic, feminine styles and rocker-glam looks, and this one is definitely the latter. Her smoky eye and disheveled updo complemenst her understated lip perfectly.
