Short Styles | What’s Your Cocktail?

 

 

Rock it curly, straight or wavy–no matter your hair type––with your perfect product pairings. Call it hair mixology.

by Jet Rhys

There are so many hair products on the market, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. What should you buy to suit your hair type? How much should you apply to get the finish you want?
I’ve worked with every hair type and texture at my Solana Beach, California, salon. I’ve also tried every product on the market–and I’ve come up with the perfect cocktails to do the hard work for you. Here are my favorite communications to get out of the old style and into the new…

Do you have combination hair

Most of us do, experts say. The bigger question is what type of combo. Once you discover that, find out here how to adjust your routine and bring out the healthy, silky, shiny hair you were always meant to have.

Damaged, dry top layer + oily underneath

Sweating heavily during HIIT or hot yoga causes an oil buildup on the underlayers of your hair, especially where moisture gathers at the nape of the neck. Add in lots of out- door fun plus any color treat- ments, and you’ll find that “your top layer is damaged because of its direct expo- sure to UV rays, heat styling, and bleaching,” says Jet Rhys, a hairstylist in San Diego.

→ YOUR CUSTOM PLAN:
To combat greasy underlayers, aim dry shampoo into the underside of the hair before your workout to soak up oil. Once that contains an anti-inflammatory like bisabolol will also soothe your scalp. To prevent damage: “Ask your colorist to add a strengthener to the color formulation she uses,” says Mika Rummo, a stylist at Salon AKS in New York City. And apply a frizz balm with UV filters before you head outside or reach for hot tools to tamp down flyaway and absorb the impart of any harsh elements.

Straight & flat in some spots + wavy or wiry in others

Sometimes hair seems to have a mind of its own–certain sections lie perfectly straight and flat, while others coil and frizz uncontrollably.

→ YOUR CUSTOM PLAN:
If you want to go all wavy, apply a curl cream to damp strands, scrunch, then air-dry. “Wrap any remaining straight pieces around a small 1/2- to 3/4-inch curling iron to give them body,” Rummo says. For smooth hair all over, blow-dry using two brushes: A round brush adds volume to flat areas, Rhys says, and a paddle brush controls the frizzy areas.

12 Fresh Haircuts and Colors To Try This Spring

by Krista Bennett DeMaio
 
It’s that time of year again. We’re finally shaking off the winter blahs and ready to hit the refresh button—and hair is the easiest place to start. There’s no quicker, faster way to get a spring pick-me-up than a trip to the salon. Whether you’re looking for a whole new ‘do, or just a subtle tweak, we’ve rounded up 12 super-flattering, skin-brightening ways to spring forward this season.

hidden_highlights

Hidden highlights

Also known as peek-a-boo highlights, hidden highlights are on the under-layer of hair, so when you move you get these beautiful flashes of color, says Rhys. They’re lower maintenance, too. Because they’re placed underneath the top layer of hair, you don’t see an obvious line of demarcation as they grow out.
Get it: Ask your colorist to place the highlights underneath your part. Rhys says the highlight trend tends to be more visible on hair with longer layers, which makes for more movement. Your colorist can adjust the shade and amount of highlights based on whether you want the effect to be natural or bold.

choppy_lob

The choppy lob

The lob—that is, the long bob—has been a staple for a few seasons now, and it’s still going strong. The latest take on the versatile collar-bone-length cut adds choppy layers throughout like Rose Byrne’s playful style. “The flicks and curves give this cut a modern twist,” says Jet Rhys, founder of the Jet Rhys Salon in San Diego. The not-too-short cropped cut works on most face shapes, and it’s especially flattering on your neckline, because it elongates the neck, says Rhys.
Get it: Ask your stylist for a lob with movement and swing, says Rhys. A razor cut is the best way to create it, she adds. Make sure to get a lesson on how to style your new cut. The layers lend themselves to a more tousled look, which you can get with a curling iron if you don’t have naturally wavy hair.

long_layered_cut

The shoulder-hugging long, layered cut

Jennifer Aniston proves long-ish hair is a good look for women over the age of 40. Her signature style—a mid-length cut with long layers—is a big trend this season. It’s not short, but not too long either, says Rhys. The layers (the shortest ones should hit below the jawline) ensure this length has movement and doesn’t just hang lifeless.
Get it: Request a length that sits on or just below the shoulder. Ask your stylist to point-cut the outer edge, a technique that involves snipping into the ends with scissors held vertically to create texture, softness, and swing, Rhys says.

bronde

Bronde

When you’re just not sure if you want to go light or dark, meet in the middle with bronde hair like Jennifer Lopez. Like the name suggests, this color is a perfect marriage between brunette and blonde tones. Besides getting the best of both worlds, the high contrast hair looks shinier and tends to fade less quickly than other hair hues, says Rhys.
Get it: Your stylist can tweak your bronde based on your skin tone. Warm skin tones can pull off amber or honey brondes, while cool complexions can try an ashier version.

strawberry

Strawberry

Soft, light reds (like Jessica Chastain’s strawberry blonde) are coming on strong this season, says Rhys. The golden red shades help warm up a pale complexion and boost light reflection.
Get it: Strawberry, rose gold, or ginger—have your colorist tweak the tone of your red to work with your complexion, says Rhys.

baby_blonde

Baby blonde

This blonde hue gets its name from the perfection that is a fair-haired child’s color: multi-tonal, usually a combination of dark blonde and light tones. It’s neither super light nor brassy—the color is buttery and honey-toned like Reese Witherspoon’s light locks.
Get it: Start with a medium-to-dark blonde base and ask your colorist to add fine, light highlights throughout with foils or balayage, a technique that involves hand-painting highlights throughout. Bonus: The grow out looks natural, so there’s less maintenance involved.

blunt_lob

The blunt lob

The one-length long bob with blunt cut ends is stunning whether styled pin-straight or with brushed waves (like Kelly Ripa wears it here), says Devin Toth, a stylist at SCK Salon in New York City. It’s especially good for someone who can handle a center part—the of-the-moment way to wear it. “You can always tuck one side behind your ear,” he says.
Get it: Ask for a one-length cut that hits between jaw and collarbone length without layers, graduation, or bangs, says Toth. The cut should be slightly shorter in the back. Style it straight and sleek or, ask your stylist to show you how to use a curling wand for a slight curve at the front hairline as in Ripa’s hair here.

soft_shag

The soft shag

The 70s-inspired shag is back with a few modern updates—this version is softer and more wearable than the edgy, choppy versions of the past. It works for all hair types and gives even straight strands instant texture. Bonus: “It completely opens up your face and draws attention to the jawline,” says Toth.
Get it: Tell your stylist that you want a collarbone-length shag with soft, blended layers throughout, paired with the very on-trend curtain bang—a middle-parted fringe like Mandy Moore wears here.

pixie_cut

The pixie cut

If you’re ready for a major chop, consider Michelle William’s sleek short cut. The deep side part makes this daring ‘do a bit more flattering, accentuating eyes and cheekbones.
Get it: Ask your stylist to keep the hair on top long, so you can swoop it over to one side. On the sides, hair should be short enough that you can’t tuck it behind your ear, but not as short as a men’s fade, which shows some skin, says Toth.

flaxen_blonde

Flaxen blonde

Bright blonde is also having a moment this season, says Corinne Adams, senior colorist at Serge Normant Salon in New York City. Cate Blanchett’s super-blonde strands are a prime example of this color trend. The shade tends to work best on those with fair skin and pink undertones.
Get it: Ask your colorist for a solid, flaxen blonde with little to no contrast, says Adams.

copper_red

Copper red

On the other end of the red spectrum is a rich, coppery red like Julianne Moore’s signature hue—a shade that makes fair skin glow, says Adams.
Get it: This red is ideal for natural redheads who want to go richer or light brunettes seeking to add warmth to their natural shade, says Adams.

bowl_cut

The bowl cut

Perhaps the edgiest of the bunch, the 90s-inspired geometric cut is for those wanting to make a bold statement—and for someone who can handle a heavy, blunt bang, like Mary J. Blige. The style is ideal on someone with a heart or oval face shape.
Get it: Ask your stylist for a bowl cut that is precise and clean. You can also request that the ends be cut a little rough and choppy, which gives the shape a softer, shaggier look.

Short Hair Style Guide | Lily Collins Wave

How To Lily Collins’ Wave

“This vintage styles is all the rage,” says Jet Rhys of Jet Rhys salon, Solana Beach, CA. The pro gives us the lowdown on how to copy the look:


1. Add a quarter-sized dollop of gel through the side party, then comb hair away from the face.

2. Place a Kleenex (to prevent dents) and a long duckbill clip on the heavy side of the part to scoop the fringe away.

3. Blow-dry with a nozzle, pointing it down the hair shaft and using your fingers–this is what adds wispiness to the tips of hair.

4. Take two section of hair and place the mid section inside a wave crimper for 15 seconds, leaving the ends free. Repeat throughout the head. Try: Bed Head Wave Artist Ceramic Deep Waver (34.99, ulta.com)

5. Brush through, then apply Bumble and Bumble Semisumo wax ($29, bumbleandbumble.com) to keep waves together and add shine.

dr_oz-article3-nov16-web3 DOUBLE UP IN THE SHOWER

When you do wash your hair, revive the lather, rinse, repeat routine. “Shampooing twice gets your scalp and hair super clean and sets you up for a bouncier look on day two or three,” says Jet Rhys, a San Diego–based salon owner. If you have fine or normal hair, pass on “hydrating” or “repairing” shampoos (code words for rich conditioning formulas that could weigh your hair down). Curly, coarse, or dry? You need the moisturizing stuff. All types should use a light conditioner on the ends, says Rhys.











dr_oz-article4-nov16-web4 THREE WAYS TO REWORK SHORT HAIR

“A cropped cut can be challenging on day two–the whole head goes flat,” says Rhys. Three easy hacks to revive it:

PIN IT
Work with, not against, the flatness: Create a side or center part, and pin down face-framing sections on each side with a decorative or regular bobby pin.

SLICK IT
Mix a styling cream with wax or pomade in the palms of your hands, and run your hands through your hair. You’ll get shine and hold without stiffness, says Rhys.

TOUSLE IT
Spritz hair with a sea-salt or prep spray, and scrunch with hands. Or coat fingers with a dab of pomade, and muss just the ends of your hair (avoiding roots).


dr_oz-article5-nov16-web5 DAY TWO ESSENTIALS

Squeeze more milage out of yesterday’s do with these tools.

Boar-bristle brush: The natural bristles help carry oil down your hair, making ends look shinier and roots less greasy.

A shower cap: Wear one when you’re showering and not shampooing to block out frizz-inducing, style-dampening humidity from the steam.

Prep spray: “It’s like a watered-down leave-in conditioner that refreshes hair without making it frizzy,” says Rhys. The label also might say “primer spray.”

Sea-salt spray: Blowout losing its smooth? Play up the piecey separation with this texturizing spray.

Velcro rollers: Old-school, yes, but they really do lift flat roots and create bounce.

Bobby pins: It’s OK, and actually cool now, to leave them visible. Get layers off your face, stack a few in a pattern, or pin back oily bangs, says Rhys.



dr_oz-article9-nov16-web
9 Revive Curls

Second-day spirals may lose their spring, especially if they get smooshed by your pillow. Spot-treat with a prep spray or a light leave-in conditioner. Then wrap individual curls around your finger and gently unravel, says Rhys. You’re back to boingy!















dr_oz-article12-nov16-web12 THIS SPRAY DOES IT ALL

Dry shampoo is your MVP on days you don’t wash. It soaks up oil and gives flat, fine hair a volume boosts, so it looks fresher. We’ll take it! Follow these four pro printers.

Get focused. Don’t spray it all over. Target particularly gunky spots-around your hairline, part, and crown. Lift up 2-inch sections of hair and spray roots, says Rhys.

Not so close. Spritz from 3 to 5 inches away from the scalp, says Webb. Otherwise, you’ll end up with big hard-to-blend globs.

Massage it. This is when the magic happens. “The more you rub it in with your fingertips, the better it absorbs oils,” says Toth. If you brush to blend, you’ll only brush it out.

Apply at night. If you sweat when you sleep, spritz it on you hairline and at the nape of the neck before bed, so you wake up with fresh hair, says Webb. (Then skip it in the morning.)

Halloween How-To: Donald Trump & Hillary Clinton Hairstyles

halloween-how-to-donald-trump-and-hillary-clinton-hairstyles
PICKING OUT YOUR HALLOWEEN COSTUME IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT DECISIONS YOU’LL MAKE ALL YEAR. LUCKILY, 2016 IS MAKING IT A LITTLE EASIER TO HAVE A BUZZ-WORTHY COSTUME (EVEN IF IT’S LAST-MINUTE) WITH THE CURRENT PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES.

No matter your political view, it’s safe to say both candidates have iconic hair to make your halloween costume stand apart. Cricket Ambassador, Jet from Jet Rhys Salon shares her step-by-steps to achieve each of the candidates’ hairstyles.

Donald Trump Comb Over How-To
Cricket Ambassador, Jet from Jet Rhys Salon

Take the Silkomb Pro-50 to divide the hair at the crown to create a half-down / half-up style. Clip up the top section away from the rest of the hair.
Apply a quarter-size amount of gel (ABBA Style Gel) into your palm and emulsify with both hands. Distribute throughout the sides and back of hair.
With the Silkomb Pro-50, comb the bottom section of hair back and secure with bobby pins. Note: if the back of the hair is longer than the bottom of the neck, you will need to roll the ends inward until it is gathered at the nape of the neck. Secure with bobby pins.
Unclip the top section of hair and spritz with hairspray (MOP C-System Firm Finish Hairspray). Using the Amped Up Teasing Brush, take two inch sections and tease (or back comb) from roots to ends. Repeat this step throughout the top section.
Using the Centrix Heat Boss Paddle Brush, lightly brush the teased section in an S-shape (brush forwards then push it over to the one side to keep a lot of the teasing in the hair, but this is what gives the bang area the cotton candy effect). Spray the hair generously with hair spray (MOP C-System Firm Finish Hairspray).
BONUS: spray a temporary hair colored spray throughout. Orange or a gold orange would be the best!

Hillary Clinton Sleek Blow Out How-To
Cricket Ambassador, Jet from Jet Rhys Salon

Apply a style spray (ABBA Style Spray) to damp hair.
Blow dry hair with the Centrix Heat Boss Small Thermal Brush, brushing hair backwards.
Once dry, start at the bang area on one side and begin taking one inch section. Use the Ultra Smooth Curling Iron and create big curls. Repeat to the other side until entire head is curled.
With the Centrix Heat Boss Paddle Brush, lightly brush through the hair. Spray generously with hairspray (MOP C-System Firm Finish Hairspray).
Take the tail end of the Silkomb Pro-50, separate the ends of the hair to create texture.
Finish by generously spraying hairspray (MOP C-System Firm Finish Hairspray) all over for hold.

Health | Super-hydrate Your Hair

Start by conditioning–yep, before cleansing (hear us out). Work a rich conditioner through wet strands from midshaft downward. “This coats hair, preventing shampoo from further drying out ends, which have likely taken a beating this summer from sun and chlorine,” explains Michelle Pasterski, head stylist at Mixed Co. Salon in Chicago. Leave the conditioner on while you shampoo. “You really only need to wash at the roots and along the hairline to remove oil sweat and product residue,” she says. Rinse out the shampoo and conditioner simultaneously. Yuma have heard that icy water lends shine, but a cold rinse actually makes it harder to get product out, notes San Diego stylist and salon owner Jet Rhys. “For a more thorough clean that still boosts shine,” she says, “keep water lukewarm.”

Master the Cold Blow-Dry

Flip your head over so you’re looking at the floor, then “use the cool setting to blow-dry your hair with he nozzle pointed down,” says hairstylist Jet Rhys, founder of the Jet Rhys Salon in San Diego. “This position encourages airflow, so your hair will retain less water and dry quicker.” This cold-only technique can double your styling time, but you aren’t baking your head. Think about it that way.

Beauty In The Bag | Meet Jet Rhys

Jet’s motto “look, study and attack” has made her an undeniable expert in the beauty industry. Evolving the looks of her clients by focusing on hair texture and bone structure, natural skin tones and color, she’s known for creating unique, signature styles that leave her clients looking gorgeous and feeling confident. Her level of knowledge and skill in contemporary hair styling technique has resulted in Jet Rhys Salon features in numerous fashion and beauty publications such as Allure, Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue.
Beauty In The Bag spoke with Jet to learn more about her career and best hair-care tips.

1. You’ve been welcoming celebrities at your salons for years! How were you introduced into the hair business, knowing this was a passion you wanted to follow?

My career began at the age of five in my Gram’s beauty shop in Chicago. I would chat with and amuse the customers while my Grandmother worked. Since those humble beginnings, I have to say I still love my career so much. Not only are the clients absolutely amazing and fun, hair is always changing. That is what keeps this industry exciting!

2. What advice would you give a person who feels their hair is too damaged to fix?

The best advice is to cut the damage out. While conditioners and masks do help with hydrating the hair, this is only a temporary band-aid to the real problem. Cutting the damage out, you will see instant results. If you cannot part with your hair immediately, trim it in stages, like every four weeks. Having healthy hair at this pace may take six months or so.

3. What is one hair product you can’t live without and why?

Dry shampoo! It’s a real genie in a can! It instantly extinguishes bed head and any oil and magically makes your hair voluminous. To my clients that have gray, I also recommend colored powders for a little touch up between visits. I use Bumble and bumble dry shampoo.

Before you get all fancy-schmancy with your skills, you have to master the basics! Let us teach you how.

Apply Products Like a Pro

Never read the instructions on the back? Don’t worry, we’ll break it down for you.

HEAT PROTECTANT

Rake it through towel-dried hair to create a barrier between your hair and your dryer

DRY SHAMPOO

Spray or sprinkle it on your roots and let it sit for 30 seconds so it has time to absorb the oil. Then, brush it through.

HAIR SPRAY

Hold it at least 6” away when spraying. This way, the water will evaporate before it hits your scalp, so you aren’t adding more moisture.

MOUSSE

Cuba a silver dollar-sized blob between your palms and run your hands through superwet hair.

ROOT BOOSTER

Press the nozzle directly into your scalp and spritz. Repeat all over your head.

WAX

Work a dime-sized amount between your fingers and apply where needed.

Spring is all about new beginnings–and that includes your bathroom essentials. We’ve got your scrub-down strategy to refresh the tools you use very day and keep them tidy.
Hairbrush + Vinegar

Clean It Bimonthly

The Dirt Product residue and natural oil from your scalp build up on bristles, which then weighs down your hair, says San Diego stylist Jet Rhys.

To Clean Remove loose strands after each use by running another hairbrush through the bristles. (Or do as Martha does: Lift away mats with an orange stick.) To cut through dirt, Rhys recommends a deep-cleaning every few weeks by soaking the brush in one part apple-cider vinegar to two parts warm water. Then rinse it with warm water for a few minutes and let it dry overnight.

Replace It If the bristles are bent or falling out.
