Major Mod!

It's NY Fashion Week and at Marc Jacobs it was a mod-tastic event! The clothes... amazing and the hair... just as strong. One dimensional hair color, bold brows and cute swept crops & sleek ponies ruled the runway.

 

 

Rebel Rebel...

The social media sphere was all a-buzz when former teen star Miley Cyrus cut off her flowing locks in what seems to be an outwardly effort to instantly 'rebel-ize' her look, leaving her sugary-pop persona behind. You can't blame her for her attempt to suddenly become 'edgy' but she is clearly lacking the true 'effortlessness' it takes to pull off a mohawk-esque hairstyle. There are many innately cool women who have owned this hairstyle- from Beth Ditto to Rihanna. A true kudos to Miley though, starting your style journey is long and often encompasses a few misses, including this haircut :(

A "Reverse Ombre" make-over!

Jassimine's dip dyed ombre ends are cooler than cool! Her new chocolate ends are the perfect compliment to her buttery blonde locks. A perfect look for fall...

Balayage in Effect!

One of colorist team members here at Trianon, Tara, is a certified Balayage extraordinaire! Now if you are not familiar, Balayage is a free form high lighting technique in which the colorist paints individual strands of hair, resulting in a more natural look compared to highlighting hair with the more uniform foiling process. Balayage can be used to achieve ombre color as well as traditional highlights. Call today for your consultation or to book an appointment!

Make the beach a MORE beautiful place!

I know this plight has been suggested before on Trianon Style, but who doesn't need a little reminder every now & then. PLEASE help make your beach a more beautiful place- style your look, accesories and most of all, your HAIR! All stripped down and no where to hide, wouldn't you want to give yourself an extra boost with a cute hairdo? A simple twist, a top knot bun, beachy waves, a perfectly placed head scarf, bows & piggies on the little ones and a styled coif for your beau, all make for a more beautiful beach day!

Oi for ALL!

Davines just launched a travel sized version of Oi Oil! This has been one of more popular & best selling products and for good reason...it really works! Clients not only experience softer, smoother and shinier hair but a mega improvement in their hair integrity.

Why you ask? Well, most oil based hair products sit on the cuticle of the hair, but Oi's Roucou oil absorbes into every strand leaving you with drastically improved hair quality. Stop by Trianon today and load up for your travels this summer. I also added in a fun Oi video for your viewing pleasure!

Wedding Hair!

A couple members of super talented staff were recently featured in Martha Stewart Weddings! I was wed this past New Years Eve and I have to say that a huge stress reliever was not having to worry or wonder about who I was going to commission to do my big-day hair. I knew exactly what I wanted, a vintage styled updo, with a modern edge and Ella & Nicole pulled off all our wedding hair styles seamlessly. So, if you are in need of some serious wedding hair look no further! See the full post HERE!

"If youd don't look good, we don't look good"

Vidal Sassoon, arguably the most influential hairdresser of our time, passed away but left behind a lifetime of art + hair. Every stylist here at Trianon is trained in his famed 'English Style' which transformed the basics of hair cutting- geometric, yet organic, wash & wear hair. Not only a brilliant artist but a master business man as well, Sassoon created the first global hair empire with his branding of salons and products. There are many pioneers who pave the way for thousands and it's always sad to see a legacy come to an end.

New & Note Worthy: Davines Natural Tech

Davines has relaunched it's Natural Tech line with new formulas for troubled scalps & problamic hair. I came across this very cinematic video on youtube that coresponds with the realease of the new product line. Check it out and find the new line at Trianon!
       

                    

A perfect mess...Debbie Harry hair!

Debbie Harry is one of the few women, aside from Amy Pohler & Miss Monroe, that have achieved bleach blond perfection. Try as hard as you might, getting your hair to look as perfectly unkempt as Debbie is a true feat. Mess on!

Our photo shoot with Paul Elledge!

Trianon is lucky enough to personally know Chicago based Photographer & film maker Paul Elledge, who is responsible for our website photography and more widely known for his portraiture work including the likes of Oprah, AC/DC, Billy Corgan, Jennifer Hudson, Ministry, Willie Nelson, just to name a few! Foodies might also be impressed with his collaborations with Charlie Trotter and Rick Bayless, needless to say the man is quite talented.

We are due to update our website with some new content, so Paul offered to help us out with a few portraits of our real-life clients... no models here! Check out some behind the scenes snap shots of the shoot...

Bob- in!

January Jones is a captivating actress and her pouty-mean-mom character on Madmen is genious! What's even more genoius about January is her hair. She has the most AMAZING versitle blond bob that can easily go from modern to retro with the flip of her part-envy worhty hair indeed!!!

Waiting on Summer...

Dresses, shorts, sandels, swim suits are all waiting in the wings for their grand apperance, and please lets not forget about summer hair. These vintage beach vixens didn't let heat, humidty, water or sand get in the way of their summer hair-dos and neither should you- rethink that sloppy pony tail next time you hit the beach!

We LOVE Lucy!

Who doesn't LOVE Lucy?? Her expressive face, her humor, her style, and that hair! A true master of her trade.
