Proview Panel: Curl Expertise
When a curly client sits in your chair, they are looking to you as the expert. It’s your job to educate them on how to care for their locks at home. MODERN asked its Proview Panel how they help their textured clients care for their curls. Here are the tips and tricks they had to offer:
Texture Trends for Men 2011
Regardless of the age or attitude of the men in your chair, most will want texture for spring, because it’s versatile, and it suits the new, longer lengths. While businessmen will favor refined, old-Hollywood styles—think tapered Mad Men cuts—younger guys will still only pretend not to have Bieber fever by calling their style “Beatlesque.” Urban ethnic guys will grow it a tad beyond skin-fades, while others will continue to give props to the Mohawk, Low Hawk and Faux Hawk.
Enhance Texture by Mixing Products, Cocktailing
Mixing products, or cocktailing, to get just the right results, is the best way to enhance your clients’ hair texture—and the opportunity to increase retail sales. Any curly girl or stylist who regularly works with texture will say they are makeshift chemists, creating their own product concoctions in search of the perfect solution for texture. These may include combinations of conditioners, gels, mousses, serums, creams and pomades from various companies to get the right look.

On the Runway: Texture Takes Over
The spring fashions shown during Fashion Week in September were complemented with textured styles. Experts predict fall fashions this month will see even more curls, waves and volume. When Allen Ruiz, North American style director for Aveda and co-owner of Jackson Ruiz in Austin, Texas, heads out to New York for February’s Fall 2011 Fashion Week, he predicts texture will be everywhere.
Texture! Eyes on Guys - FEB 2011
