To Tighten and Enhance Curls Try a Twist Set

1. Finger-comb be curly style prep generously through damp hair.  Follow by applying be curly curl enhancer evenly throughout hair.

2. Twist hair in small sections around your finger, until the curl wraps around itself.  Spray with new be curly curl enhancing hair spray to set.

3. Diffuse your hair dry by letting hair rest on the diffuser.  Keep motion at a minimum to help reduce frizz.

4. Finger-style gently and finish by spraying be curly curl enhancing hair spray.

How to loosen and control curls with Be Curly’s NEW Curl Controller:

1. Finger-comb Be Curly Style Prep through damp hair.  Then, distribute new Be Curly Curly Controller evenly throughout hair.

2. Braid hair in small sections with a light touch to create a loose, flat braid for a longer, natural looking finished curl.  Secure braids with elastic.

3. Blow-dry braids downward, moving from roots to ends.  Allow braids to cool completely and unravel them, finger-styling as you go.

4. Finish your look–and hold your style–with new Be Curly Curl Enhancing Hair Spray.

 The beauty of simplicity.

True beauty is natural and comes from within.  The AVEDA mission to use products with ingredients naturally derived from flower and plant essence, is what creates a unique and special kind of experience for each guest.

The professionals at Mood Swings Salon & Skin Spa whole-heartedly believe in the AVEDA mission and strive to uncover each individual’s true beauty.  Whether you want to change your look completely or simply maintain the look you’ve become comfortable with, we always want you to walk out the door feeling more beautiful and confident than you did walking in.  The world we live in is full of propaganda and misleading information as to what beauty is and what it should mean to us.  My recommendation, as Plato graciously stated, “Beauty of style, and harmony, and grace, and good rhythm depends on simplicity.”

Keep it simple, keep it natural, keep it BEAUTIFUL!

“Our mission at AVEDA is to care for the world we live in, from the products we make to the ways in which we give back to society.  At AVEDA, we strive to set an example for environmental leadership and responsibility, not just in the world of beauty, but around the world.”

“Our mission at Mood Swings Salon & Skin Spa is to provide each and every guest a unique salon & spa experience through our passion for technical competence, outstanding customer service, and commitment to community.”

Please share your idea of what the “beauty of simplicity” means to you and what, in your opinion, is true beauty?

Need a remedy for your dry, brittle hair caused by the hot Arizona sun?  AVEDA’s Botanical Treatments are what you need!  It only takes 15 minutes with a hair service and I guarantee you will see immediate results!  I found that they are great to do in between highlighting services because the treatment adds protein back into the hair, which allows the hair to be stronger and prevents it from breakage.

What are the Botanical Treatments?

Botanical Scalp Therapy: Conditions, soothes, and purifies scalp

Botanical Scalp Detox Therapy: Intense detoxifier

Botanical Moisture Therapy: Penetrating moisture

Botanical Repair Therapy: Penetrating protein

Botanical Hair and Scalp Therapy: Scalp Balance or Detox, and Hair Moisture or Repair

Braided Beauty

From the runway to every day, braids can serve multiple functions.  Here are several ways you can free your face and add texture and style to any type of look.

Free your face with a braided headband

 

 

 

 

 

Who needs a crown?  Create a hippy-chic updo with a braided crown!

 

 

 

 

 

Switch up the typical single braid to a funky Fishtail Braid!

 

 

 

 

 

How to do a Fishtail Braid:

1. Split the section you would like to braid into 2 even sections.

*Helpful Hint:  Prep hair with AVEDA’s Damage Control before drying hair to help detangle, making sectioning off the hair much easier.

 

 

 

2. Grab a small section from the outside of the left-side section and pull it over the top to the inside of the right section.

*Helpful Hint: Secure the piece you pulled from the left side to the right side with your right thumb.

 

 

 

3. Next, grab a small section from the outside of the right-side section and pull it over the top to the inside of the left section.

*Note: Getting the braid started is the hardest part!

 

 

 

 

4. Repeat steps 2-3 until braid is complete.

 

 

 

 

5. When braid is complete, secure with a hair tie.

*To make this a more “beachy” look, spray braid with AVEDA’s Control Force Hairspray, and slightly pull out on both sides of the braid.  Purposeful messiness is a great way to add texture!
