Emily’s Toasty Chestnut Ombré

Emily from Aurelio Salon in Toms River NJ created a Toasty Chestnut Ombré on her client. Emily is a stylist in our Howell and Toms River Locations. If you would like to achieve this look please call the salon and ask for Emily.

Before

 

Client began at a Natural Level 4 and was interested in doing a subtle change to brighten her up. Emily used Goldwell Colorance color achieve this look.

After:

 

Emily started Ombré application began with sectioning her hair into four(4) quadrants. Beginning in the back she took a 1” diagonal partings, teasing the sections at root (the more tease the lower the ombré will start- this will provide a guide as to where placement will fall, teasing will also melt the ombré to eliminate harsh lines). Using a board, foil under the section. On areas that are not teased paint your first color . Starting heavily on the bottom, feather up towards the tease, repeat for an additional section. On the 3rd section leave out a one-inch slice, proceed to take down the next section and repeat leaving out every 3rd section. Now moving towards the front quadrants, begin using your second color in the technique and let process. when processing is complete, rinse, shampoo, & towel-dry. Then applie a Glaze, starting at ombré’d pieces then distribute through-out. Allow to process and rinse lightly, emulsify glaze into rest of hair – then rinse completely.

Rachael creates a darker violet on top to a brighter more vibrant violet on the ends!

Rachael from Aurelio Salon in Toms River NJ created a brighter vibrant violet on her client Korina. Rachael is a stylist in our Howell and Toms River Locations. When Korina came to the salon she was a natural level 6, with color on her ends. Korina wanted an ombre. After consulting with her they opted to go with a darker violet on top to a brighter more vibrant violet on the ends. To achieve this outstanding color Rachael had to not only make adjustments for the differences in color in the hair but had to create a unique formula for Korina used Goldwell Color. If you would like to have this look please stop in and ask for Rachael!

  

Rachael first had to address the ends by using Goldwell Oxycur Platin Lightening Powder on the ends then applied a glazed using a mixture of Colorance color to create an even canvas for Elumen. Colorance is a demi-permanent hair color that not only protects the hair, but even repairs the hair structure. The healthier the hair, the more beautiful and shining the color result. She then conditioned the hair with Rich Repair 60 second treatment. Using Elumen, she randomly placed and painted it on throughout the ends for dimension in the hair and applied Elumen from roots to midshaft. Because of condition of the hair Elumen lock and treat was applied at the sink to seal in the color.

The Staff of Aurelio Salon Attends A Goldwell/KMS Event

May, 2014 (New York, NY) Aurelio Salons staff had the pleasure of attending The Goldwell NYC event at the Highline Ballroom, last night. In attendance, sitting second row, was our salon director Daisy, managers Melissa and Ariel, Salon educators Natalie, Kristina and Nicoletta, and Stylists Tim, Jessica, and Emily along over 500 salon owners, hairstylists, distributors, and fashion gurus. While the Highline Ballroom is well known, it did not impress. The seating was tight and the food a disappointment and it seemed that they did not have enough staff to service the needs of the guest. Luckily the show more then made up the disappointment of the venue. Patrick McIvor took the stage as MC, Introducing industry icons like Simon Miller representing KMS California, Nick Arrojo for Arrojo NYC and John Simpson for Goldwell. As the models for Goldwell walk the catwalk we were wowed by the amazing cuts and color, platform artist John Simpsom enticed to attend the up-coming Color Zoom event in Berlin. John walked us through some formulations and techniques that were used on the models and taught us how we can use some of the techniques in the salon. He then followed up by introducing the new Kerasilk Keratin Hair Smoothing Treatment, launched this year, and showing how it took unruly frizzy hair and makes it more manageable, softens curly hair and smooths frizz. Next up was celebrity hairstylist Nick Arrojo and his team. After a little info on all the models and the color used on them they did a hair cutting demo with Nick showing his classic razor cutting skills. The presentations were ended after Simon Miller and KMS army took the stage demonstrating the amazing uses of KMS product along with a live performance. The night ended with the an amazing final presentation as the models took the stage for one last time showing of some great Avante-garde hair. After the show the models came off stage and were walking around providing photo-ops. The staff was also able to mix and mingle with the guest artists and discuss tip and techniques that can be used in the salon. Photo-ops were also taken advantage of as well with them.

How to wear your curls on rainy days:

Welcome to Aurelio Hair Salon and Spa, Goldwell and KMS Salon. Serving Ocean and Monmouth Counties.

How to wear your curls on rainy days:

There is no fighting this unwanted rain today, so why not embrace it?! Style your hair that works with the weather, not against it. Put away those flat irons and rods and scrunch those lovely locks! Today we feature a style equation from our KMS Curl Up line. The duo of Control Crème and Wave Foam is great for enhancing curls and creating that natural wave while adding some shine. The best part about it, Maximum Frizz control! So stay worry free as we say goodbye to April. Happy styling!   #Rainyday #Hairstyles #Hair #Curls #Frizzfree #KMS #ControlCreme #WaveFoam #HumpDay #AurelioSalon   
How to wear your curls on rainy days:  Just because you have ringlets and bundles doesn’t mean you can’t style them differently!
Embrace the trend and opt for a head band to keep those curls down, or a nice fishtail braid for a boho-chic look.
The red carpet featured hair pinned over to one side while the other is full of body, luckily your curls provide that done up look!  Don’t leave it plain ladies: you could decorate your lock with fun hair pieces!
KMS California Curl UP
Step1:  Begin with your Curl Up Shampoo to improve your elasticity and provide your hair with that desired bounce.
Step 2:  Apply the Curl Up Conditioner in a raking motion through your tangles, and then let it sit for 2 minutes.  After the curl enhancing technology has done its job, you can then lightly rinse the product out.
Step 3:  To remove the excess water from your curls, you want to tilt your head to the side and in a “scrunching” upward motion use a paper towel or an old t-shirt to absorb.  Be sure you are starting from your ends and lifting your way up to ensure you keeps your curls smooth.
Step 4:  Apply Curl Up Control Crème for curl bundling and frizz control.  You want to emulsify the product and work through your hair evenly, using it to define your curls.  To apply, repeat the “scrunching” motion.
Step 5:  Prior to heat styling, apply Curl Up Wave Foam for soft waves and natural movement.  Starting at the ends and working your way up in the same “scrunching” motion; Wave Foam provides the protection you will need and protects your hair from frizzing.
Step 6:  It is now your choice to either diffuse your hair or allow it to air dry.  Side note:  A diffuser is designed to enhance your curls and give them definition without disrupting their shape.
Step 7:  After your curls are fully dried, you are going to slide your fingertip underneath your hair and place them on your scalp, and very lightly shake at your roots to open up your curls.
