Spring 2014
Invest to protect your beachy look
you may see a green hue taking
over your lovely locks. Before
you jump in, wet your hair
then put a leave in conditioner like Bumble and Bumble’s
Color Minded Styling Balm.
This will help from your hair
soaking up any of that unwanted green tone from the water. Clarifying shampoos will help
remove some of that unwanted
green. Bumble and Bumble’s
Surf Shampoo will do two
things for you. First, it will
clarify unwanted impurities out
of your hair, and second, it will
give you that beachy texture
and wave for that summer
look. But you may need a little
extra help, come in and see one
of your colorist for a treatment
to rid your hair of extra build
up from your laps in the pool.
By Whitnie Frane
HIP Colourist
All hair color needs
extra love in the summer
months – blondes and
reds especially. No one
looks good brassy, and
blond flyaways are best
underneath a sunhat.
Your skin isn’t the only
thing that changes with
the sun’s warming rays.
Blondes will become
frizzy, brunettes will
lose their shine, and
redheads will inevitably
get brassy. So just like the
SPF you put on your skin,
your hair needs some extra
care too!
Color Retention
HIP Salon carries multiple
products with UV protection for your hair. Bumble
and Bumble’s Color Minded
UV Protective Styling
Balm needs to be in your hair
care routine. Not only does
it moisturize and tame your
natural texture, it protects
your hair with UV filters and
Bumble’s very own color-preserving complex, which keeps
tones true. Kerastase also has a
great leave-in treatment to keep
your color vibrant. Chroma
Thermique adds shine, protects
hair from heat styling tools and
offers UV protection.
Dry Shampoos
If you can skip a day of
Salt Water Protection
‘Salt water may give your hair that
beachy wave and texture everyone
wishes for. But your hair will be
begging to be hydrated!’
shampooing, DO IT! Although
this is true for every season,
summer is one of most important times to skip a day or two
and use a dry shampoo! An option from Bumble and Bumble
would be Pret-a-Powder. Not
only does this product soak up
unwanted oils, but it also gives
you that worn-in sexy second
day hair.
Kerastase also recently released a new styling line with a
texturizing dry shampoo called
Powder Bluff. This product
offers anti-frizz and humidity protection (we ALL need
that in the summer) and also
provides UV filters and heat
protection.
When you do shampoo, make
sure you are using something
color safe followed by a conditioner also for color-treated
hair. Oribe’s Beautiful line is
to die for! With exotic ingredients such as Edelweiss
Flower Extract, from the Swiss
Alps, which provides natural
protection against the drying
and damaging effects of the
elements. Bumble and Bumble’s
Color Minded line and
Kerastase’s Chroma Captive
shampoo and conditioner are
both excellent choices too,
depending on your budget.
Just for Blondes
If you are blonde and swimming in the pool this summer,
Traveling this spring or summer? Salt water may give your
hair that beachy wave and
texture everyone wishes for.
But your hair will be begging
to be hydrated! Try Oribe’s
Supershine Moisturizing
Cream, which gives just the
right amount of moisture and
shine after you step out of the
ocean to keep that tousled
look. Supershine Moisturizing
Cream also has exotic ingredients such as Kaempferia
Galanga Root Extract, which
also delivers natural UV
protection.
Cool Rinse
One more tip ... when rinsing
your hair use cooler water
just like you would wash
bright-colored clothing! A nice
cold burst of water at the end
of your shower will keep your
color vibrant and shiny!
These products and tips will
hopefully keep your luscious
locks looking fantastic all summer long!

Rock these
spring styles
By Salvatore Turco
HIP Senior Stylist
Sorry, winter, we’re way over you. It’s time
to refresh your look for spring without the
requirement to spend hours in front of the
mirror each morning.
Hairstyles for spring present themselves as
entirely effortless. These aren’t Hollywoodperfect waves; these waves have a bit of
texture and tousle, are worn either with a
side part or center part, and perfect for both shorter and longer
hair.
What length of short is in? The bob. Soft, long layers and full of
texture or flowing waves from the shoulder to just below the ear.
Pixie Pays Off
Yes, the Pixie is hot now. Gamine and gorgeous, yet classic — the
short Pixie hairstyle takes guts. The payoff is how well it shows off
your features. Remember the stir Jennifer Lawrence caused when
she adopted the Pixie.
It’s most flattering with wavy
hair and an oval, square or
heart-shaped face. Go take
the plunge and have (me)
your stylist create this ‘do
for you? Ask for a short,
soft, wispy-layered cut with
enough length to allow for
face-framing bangs in the
front and some coverage
at the nape — or bring in
your favorite celeb-inspired
photo for a reference.
‘Gamine and
gorgeous, yet
classic — the
short pixie
hairstyle takes
guts. The payoff is how well
it shows off
your features.’
Sometimes depending on
the texture of the hair, layered hairstyles can be done as jagged
or shaggy style. Layers have a variety of styles: wavy, pixie cut,
spring-layered hairstyle and choppy layers. You can even wear
medium-layered hairstyles with side bangs for a nice frame to any
face type.
Medium-length styles are so versatile that anyone can rock the
look. That’s why so many women with these hairstyles look so
fabulous every single day. Celebrities have gorgeous medium-layered hairstyles.
Use various hair sprays like Super Strong Fine from Oribe or City
Swept from Bumble and Bumble to give a next day look to the
hair. These products give the impression of volume to your hair,
even if you have thin texture.
Now, for men’s cuts. New modern hairstyles and haircuts are a
great way to change your look. Men feel that they look attractive
with a trendy hairstyle, which is so true. Men want their women
to look hot so why not vice versa? Lots of trendy hairstyles for
men have come on the market, and hairstyles have become a
highly competitive look. Fade
The Fade haircut is one of my favorite cuts. A great Fade takes a
huge amount of skill to perform correctly, and few barbers have
the patience and skill to pull it off. A perfect Fade will contain no
visible lines and will be cleanly finished. This is an excellent cut
for anyone wanting to manage unruly thick or curly hair.
With the Fade, hair at the back and sides is tapered from the
longest length on top all the way down to the skin at the neck.
This is a smooth transition compared to the distinct lines of the
undercut. The Fade can be more obvious if hair is longer on top
or subtler with shorter hair, but it can be combined with any cut
on top. Wear hair longer for the slick look, shorter to spike it, both
will work with Gel Serum or Rock Hard Gel from Oribe.
There’s little day-to-day styling involved with the Fade. However,
keeping hair precisely trimmed is one of the key elements to
maintaining a high-style look. Detailing is very important! Unlike
the undercut, this is not a DIY at home cut. Executing a seamless
transition requires the steady hand of a skilled professional. Leave
this to (me) your stylist.
Another men’s favorite is a modern version of the pompadour.
Like the Fade, it’s short on the sides but you’ll have about 3 inches
long on top. Or try a classic from the ’50s with side-swept hair but
yet still tapered and clean.
Visit your favorite stylist, and let’s get you HIP for spring!!!

Get instant
pretty with
Xtreme Lashes®
By Jeanine Vena
HIP Senior Colourist
and Lash Technician
Want a fun, new set of eyes? Try our Eyelash
Extensions beauty service.
Eyelash extensions give “instant pretty” to any
woman who wants fuller, longer lashes. You
can create the dark mascara look WITHOUT
mascara!
While eyelash strips are inexpensive, they usually only last a few days.
But our line of eyelash extensions are semi-permanent, lasting 4-6
weeks, depending on the life cycle of your natural lashes as well as other
factors.
Did you know the average cycle of
a single, natural eyelash is about 90
days? However, factors such as your
eyelash characteristics, lifestyle and
general care of your lashes will affect how long your lash extensions
will last.
Xtreme Lashes® Semi-Permanent
Eyelash Extensions are single
strands of synthetic lashes that are
applied on to your own natural
lashes. Each synthetic strand is
tapered at the tip with a thick base
and curled to replicate a natural
lash. Xtreme Lashes® Lash Stylists
meticulously and delicately attach
one lash extension to one natural
lash at a time for a total of 60 to 120
lash extensions per eye.
You can get great lashes in about an hour and they stay on for weeks.
Plus, they last longer and look more natural than glue-ons.
Eyelash extensions are not just for special occasions; they are constant
fixtures in your beauty arsenal. The result is stunning eyelashes that
enhance eyes of every shape and color.
‘Eyelash extensions give “instant pretty”
to any woman who wants fuller, longer
lashes. You can create the dark mascara
look WITHOUT mascara!’

Keep that fresh-out-of-the-chair look
By Ryan Brown
HIP Stylist
With another one
of our long Chicago
winters come and
gone, We are now
anxiously waiting for
spring and summer
but with that comes
one of our hair’s worst
enemy: Humidity!
No matter what your style or hair type
(thick or thin), we have the right product
to keep your hair in check and looking
salon fresh. Using the right cocktail of
products is your best bet to maintain your
“fresh-out-of-the-chair” look.
Start with the appropriate cleanser and
conditioner. Our fabulous Kerastase line
has solutions for fine, brittle, dry, coarse,
frizzy and just down right out-of-control hair, providing the luxury your hair
deserves.
Once your hair is clean and towel-dried,
prep it with the right foundation. A primer
for hair, foundation is dispersed evenly
throughout the hair to ensure every last
strand is protected. All 3 HIP lines have
foundations: Bumble and Bumble’s Prep
and Tonic, Oribe’s Foundation Mist, or
Kerastase’s Ciment Thermique, Chroma
Thermique or Nectar Thermique. Choose
the best for you.
Now you’re ready to style. Grab Oribe’s Gel
Serum. Your stylist can advise you on how
much to use to achieve the look you desire.
This is a MAGICAL product when looking
for shine and hold, and you can always
have fun with it. Spike it up. Slick it back.
Get a little sassy. Smooth it for an elegant
look. Blow it out.
Oribe’s Impermeable (which is
‘This is a MAGICAL product when looking for shine
and hold, and you can always have fun with it.
Spike it up. Slick it back. Get a little sassy.
Smooth it for an elegant look. Blow it out.’
Miami-tested) tops off any hairstyle making it humidity proof … Really!
Now, you’re asking yourself, “What am
I gonna do the next day?!” Maybe your
roots are a little oily from being on the
dance floor all night. But I bet your blow
dry is still holding up with the gel serum.
And of course, your colourist and stylist
are warning you against washing your hair
every day. So, trust us when we say: The
second-day look is in. Embrace your bed
head.
Bumble and Bumble has blessed us with
two lovely products that make the next
morning a little more graceful. Spray Dry
Spun at the roots to soak up oils and add
volume. Your previous day’s blowout is
still holding up but it’s just a little too
elegant. Use City Swept by spraying it from
mid-strand to ends and maybe a little
on the bangs. It will give that blowout a
whole new look, texture and definition. It’s
disheveled elegance at its best.
Give yourself the adorable HIP look you
love so much. It’s all about using the right
product and we are always here and love
to help you achieve the looks you love so
much!

Pop of color
at a distance;
get close up
for nuance
By Christine Chun
HIP Senior Colourist
The time has come to denounce the
collective depression of winter. Spring
and summer seasons are upon us, and
this happy colorist is ready to frolic and
paint her clients accordingly.
Hair colors are generally solid. You find
that boring? Hardly. It’s about creating a
pop of color from a respectable distance
and discovering nuance up close. Every color, like every soul,
has a dark side and is perfect for creating dimension. We don’t
want the look of a wig. Those hairs have to bounce and sashay
while you stand there looking unassuming and fabulous.
Blondes are blonde

ger muted. Rather,
they gleam truer
undertones of yellow to copper, radiating the colors of the sun.
Reds are on fire. There is no room for brown dulling this season’s
reds. Coppers burn bright, while deeper reds are crimson and
dare you to call them fake. Word of advice, don’t mess with this
season’s redhead. She is out to create memories.
Brunettes. Our time has come. The range of shades are good
enough to eat and they make a statement. From dark to darker,
caramel to ebony, this season’s range of brunettes are not only
acknowledged, but also respected. The most interesting brunettes
choose to mix it up on the
same head of hair. Remember
what I said about nuance? You
gotta get close baby.
Still not comfortable without different colors to adorn
yourself with? The ombré is
simply not going away. But
it has given way to a more
sophisticated version. Gone
are the black roots and over
processed blonde ends that
scream hipster washout or
unemployed undergrad. The
current version is far subtler, creating the look of natural depth
and a few face-framing streaks to keep it interesting. Brunettes
begin their growth with darkest brown and progress gradually
into warm caramels or coppers. The lighter version will begin
with a light brown or blending into golden blondes with pale tips.
Go ahead and scrutinize the head of your nearest 5-year-old fresh
from a week at the beach. It’s the look of good living.
Highlights are returning for men. Just a touch of flash in the front.
Nothing more.
Whatever your personal style, the message this season is the same.
Impact in as few words, actions, and colors as possible. Now lets’
color your hair.
