Just got my hair cut & colored by my friend Ryan Gorey, a student/soon-to-be-hair-rock-star at Brio Academy of Cosmetology in East Hartford. My hair was so thick we had to do the color yesterday and the cut today! I love how it came out though. Red enough, but not too red and not too orange. [...]]]>

Just got my hair cut & colored by my friend Ryan Gorey, a student/soon-to-be-hair-rock-star at Brio Academy of Cosmetology in East Hartford. My hair was so thick we had to do the color yesterday and the cut today! I love how it came out though. Red enough, but not too red and not too orange. Juuust right. Thanks, Ryan! {And thanks, Stan, for being the patient man behind the camera always <3}

FYI: getting your hair cut/colored by students is actually a really great money-saving idea {this cut & color cost me only $50. I was paying around $120 at a salon!}. I know it sounds a little scary to have a “student” working on your head, but they do have instructors helping them, so it’s really nothing to be nervous about. Plus, you’re helping them learn, too. xo

The great thing about this trend is that you don’t have to commit to a completely new hair color.  Check out a salon and ask about a semi-permanent glaze.  It’ll warm up your hair and give you that red shine for the season, causing no damage. (beacause it fades after a while).

Talk about standing out.  Red is such a rarity and causes so much drama (without looking completely unnatural).  Coco Rocha definitely caused a stir when the model went from pretty brown to blazing beauty.CocoRochaVoguehair

Like it or not, (and I LOVE it) it’s cool to be warm this winter.
