Hue Trends for Fall
This month, MODERN asked its Proview Panel colorists about the hottest trends they have witnessed this year and predict for fall. Here’s what our panelists had to say:
Color Shampoos
For clients who recently got their hair colored or highlighted, recommend the perfect color-care shampoo to keep their hair in tiptop shape. Take your pick from these brands that offer products suited for color-treated hair.
Saturate Revenues with Color
Cyrus Bulsara, president of Professional Consultants & Resources, (proconsultants.us), and expert consultant in the salon industry, recently released the 2009 Salon Haircolor Study. The report reveals all hair care service revenues in salons grew by only 1.5 percent to $50.3 billion in 2009, for the lowest growth in 20 years. But hair color services grew at twice the rate and by 3 percent to $14 billion in 2009.
