Thoughts on the importance of purchasing professional products from an authorized salon, rather than purchasing them elsewhere.

Many of us have come across professional name-brand hair, nail, skin and make-up products in places that really shouldn't be carrying them.  Whether you're in a store or browsing online, purchasing these products (which are truly only legally able to be sold in authorized salons and stores) is not a worthwhile investment.  You are running the risk of using a diluted, contaminated, defective, or altogether different product in the guise of the familiar packaging.  Thoughts of what may be lurking in there, or where the bottles were exhumed could keep a person awake at night!  Yuck.

When you purchase a product from your salon, it has come from the manufacturer to the salon.  This is a safe and ethical way to purchase your products, because they are backed by the company. Your stylist, esthetician, and nail technician uses their knowledge to guide you toward the products that will work for your specific needs, and you can rest assured that you are actually getting the quality that you're paying for.

In addition, professional products are often concentrated, and therefore, a little goes a long way.  This saves you money in the end, while not compromising quality.  Stay informed and stay smart, dear clients!  At Your Escape Salon, we proudly carry a wide array of excellent products:

*Paul Mitchell (including the fabulous Forever Blonde, Awapuhi, and Curl lines)

*Moroccanoil

*Keratin Complex

*Malibu

*Footlogix

*The Naked Bee

*Poopourri

Happy New Year! Need a boost when it comes to the thickness or length of your hair?

Good news!  Our fabulous hairstylist, Jennifer, is an Ultratress Hair Extension Certified Stylist.  Jennifer is a fan of these extensions because she feels that " they hold up well, they look very natural, and they retain their luster as opposed to looking dull or ratty over time."  These top quality extensions are 100% human hair, and the tape is surgical grade as well as hypoallergenic.  Like anything that requires maintenance, these extensions will last from 4 to 12 weeks depending on how well you care for them, and your level of activity.  A consultation with Jennifer is required a week before she applies the extensions so that she can do a color match.  The extensions come in solid or highlighted options.  Check out these before and after photos of Jennifer's work:
