“Pins you cannot live without” Kit

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

We have been wanting to put a pin kit for like 10 years, but there are sooo many cool styles it was always too hard to organize what pins could be in it. So we decided to put a small kit of some pins that we love, and we are sure you will agree with us that you wont be able to live with out them as well.

The Kit Contains:

  • Tall Black Bob Pins

(These pins are the length of regular grips, but they are super skinny. making them super easy to hide.)

dscn1030

  • dscn1031Small Rubber Bob Pins

(Ideal for those hair textures that want to slip through the average pin.)


dscn1032


  • Fine Black Hair Pin

(We used refer to these as bang pins, because they can hide in plane sight. Even in the Bangs.)

dscn1026


  • Large and Medium U pins

(These are called nudgi’s they are U pins with small barbs on them so they don’t slip out. These are Our ALL TIME FAVORITE  HAIR PINS.)

dscn10321

  • Large Heavy Wavy Pin

(do you remember in the Cartoon Tom and Jerry when the woman would find Jerry and freak out, and pins would fly out of her hair… These are those pins. Super wavy and wide so once you anchor them they wont come out. So why did they come out in the cartoon?)

dscn1028

  • Rubberized X large Curve Wavy Pin

(We discovered these 5 years ago, they are great for smooth looks that require the look to be tight at the scalp.)

  • Of course we are going to throw something a little extra in because we are super cool.

This kit is designed to be a suplement to what you already have, not a total pin kit. (That will be coming soon…)

dscn1023

All of these pins for

$40. +s/h

Our plan is not to get rich selling kits. We just want to share some things we think Hairdressers will love.

I don’t have this up on my paypal site yet so if you want one give me a holla and I can take your info over the phone. I am not going to have these at this price forever so if you want to order one do it soon.

dscn0988

dscn0982dscn0983

  • 1 YS Park Half Moon Tail

(When I saw this comb I almost wet myself… a YS Park comb with a curve to it so you can get out of the way of your sections. p.s. Colorests will like this comb as well but what do they know. )

dscn0965

  • Finally you get 1 YS Park Extra Long Tooth Tail comb

(Designers  will recognize this comb as a 5 inch cutting comb, except that it has a tail for sectioning.)

dscn0979

  • I am also throwing in a small gift that if you haven’t used them before they will change your life, and if you have used them before you will thank me for adding them.

So for the whole kit

what would you expect to pay?

$75. to $80.

We are selling them for $65 +s/h

Our plan is not to get rich selling kits. We just want to share some things we think Hairdressers will love.

I don’t have this up on my paypal site yet so if you want one give me a holla and I can take your info over the phone. I am not going to have these at this price forever so if you want to order one do it soon.

Why Study History?

Monday, November 30th, 2009

When I decided to get in to this industry, I had no idea what I was getting into. I was un-employed with no ambition. I knew I wanted to be famous but I didn’t know doing what. DeAnnalyn suggested I become a hairdresser, so the next day I signed up at the local Beauty School.

Man, I hated it. There were the stereotypical students with loads of drama but no drive. I used to sit outside for 6 hours a day smoking cigarettes and when Mr. Bob would clock me out I would say “F@#k you” and go and clock myself in. (I guess I was more intimidating back than I am now.) I just remember thinking “Wow, is this what I am going to do for the rest of my Life?”

About 3 months before I graduated I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with a Major Hair Product Manufacture. I remember sitting in trainings and watching Robert Cromeans, and Jeanne Bra, and thinking to myself, I could do that. Than by luck we were asked to work with John and Suzanne Chadwick, a husband and wife team from England.

They were great, John was strict and would yell and stomp off, and Suzanne would encourage and cheer. Even though they both had different methods of teaching you could see they had a deep foundation for their training. They planted a seed in me that has continued to grow, that seed was discipline. In time I came to meet many of the hairdressers that have achieved some level of success in this industry, and aside of a few they all carried that same discipline.

About 5 years ago I decided to start teaching at a beauty school, I wanted to pass along some of the training that I was fortunate to have. As I was at the school I noticed the discipline was not there. The teachers were washed up hairdressers with no training so how could they train our future. So I decided to do something about it.

I wanted to give the future hairdresser something to be proud of. I wanted to show them their rich past so they can shape a rich future. I looked to our history. I don’t know if you have ever tried to look up hairdresser history… there is nothing written down. Beauty School Text books focus on ancient Egyptians, which if you ask me is exceptionally boring. I wanted to focus on hairdressings immediate history. I wanted to trace a family tree from my students through time.

The study became a hobby for me, I would ask around and meet people that knew people, they would add to the story, or give me another name to research. After I quit the Beauty School I was afraid that my history class would go away, but some of my Hairdresser friends have encouraged me to set up a curriculum for hairdresser to come in and learn about their past as well.

Starting March 2010 I will be teaching Hairdresser History in 3 parts starting with as far back as I can trace which is Eugene Schuler moving through time all the way through to the present. We explore the different movements of hair starting with the Hairdressing Movement, into the Haircutting Movement, the Retail Movement, and finally the Hair Color Movement. We also discuss the future of hairdressing and where the industry is going, and how we can affect that outcome.

Join me in this quest to preserve this industry by researching our past and shaping the future.

Innovation With No Ammonia (INOA)

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Innovation With No Ammonia (INOA)

photo1DeAnnalyn and I are are lucky to be working with one of the greatest haircare companies in the world. 100 Years ago Eugene Schuller the founder of L’Oreal invented hair color, and today they are revolutionizing it. For the past 100 years we have used Ammonia to aid in the development of permanent hair color. Ammonia is a workhorse, and when used properly is completely safe. Now L’Oreal has developed a way to use Mono Ethanol Amine (MEA) an odorless agent used mainly in Semi- and Demi - Permanent hair color, in a Permanent hair color.

What does this mean?

  1. Zero Odor
  2. Decreased Scalp Irritation
  3. All of the performance of a permanent hair color with more respect to the hair.

L’Orel states that:

  1. The Natural Protective layer is 45% better preserved than with Traditional Permanent Hair Color.
  2. The essential amino acids and surface lipids are preserved, from the surface to the core, equal to that of NATURAL HAIR.
  3. Hair is 25% smoother and 35% stronger than after the service than with Traditional Hair Color.

The cool thing is this hair color doesn’t even launch until 2010, However we at TEAL are one of the select few to get to carry it right now. In fact TEAL got our care package on Friday October 2nd, and we already started playing with it.

Crae Hassler a hair colorist from another salon was stopping by and wanted to see what the new hair color was all about.
