First time customer Karla asked for a new look for her dry, color fading hair. She wanted it to get a proper shape again, but still keep the length of her hair.

Lots of change was done by Yoshiko to  give Karla the new hair she wanted. She restored the color with dark cool brown for base color, put few pieces of highlight on top. Then she did ‘Japanese thermal straightening’ using Miconos solution to preserve moisture, provide naturally straight, shiny and fluid looking hair. Finally, Yoshiko did a hair cut, to give it a overall better shape while keeping the length.

What Karla ended up with after this procedure, was nice tidy, glossy hair. It has become quite sophisticated while still easy to maintain. The best from two worlds.

–Update!–

When Karla came again to Afrodita for the second time, her color had begun fading a lot from last time. So that definitely needed attention, but she wanted to go a bit darker than she normally would. But not just a boring dark.
Lets see what Yoshiko did for her. 😉

Yoshiko colored her hair darker, with a touch of several lighter ends, some darker, some lighter. Then she gave her a good layered cut with the intention of creating a wavy look.

The Result is quite phenomenal. The new dark and light colors create wonderful multidimentional ends, which emphasizes the beautiful texture of her wavy hair.

 

 

 

Regular customer Shellys blonde hair was already starting to fade when she came to Afrodita. She wanted to have it recolored and the hair style freshened up.

Yoshiko did a touch up and created highlights for her with 3 different colors, marigold, honey and a goldish orange tone. Colors both darker and lighter than her current, resulted in giving her a good looking balance.

The overall look got tighter and the color and bangs really fit her well now. There’s nothing like getting your hairstyle polished once in a while.
Besides going to the Onsen, thats pretty nice aswell. 😉

Take care!

 

Regular client Crystal came to correct color and trim up hair. Her natural dark color came out, and her hair became long and out of shape.

Yoshiko cut her hair to make it shorter and thinner. She shaped it around face, made straight bob shape which is easy to mantain.

Crystal has a great change with this hair style. She looks more brilliant and active than before. Another goal is that she can easily styling hair herself with her hair like this.

She have become a regular customer of Afrodita, since she always get satisfaction after every time visiting our hair salon.

When Melanie came to Afrodita, her hair didn’t have much styling to it. Bangs were brushed to the side and her hair parted just off-center. she wanted a change.

Some locks were trimmed and styled to give her long, front, sweeping bangs. Melanie had highlights applied to brighten up her hair and her roots were treated for a consistent look.

She wanted a lighter color than she had received prior, and Yoshiko was very happy to brighten up the hair.

Melanie’s before and after shots show a dramatic change. She now has fringe in the front and hair that is easier to style and color that opens up new options for her look.

This was Melanie’s first visit here. Before she left, she made plans to do a bit more color next time and to cut the hair shorter. But first she wanted to see if she’d be happy with this new look.

— Update! —

Melanie came back to us to finish her hairstyle and try to get it even shorter. Her normal hair color has a dark ashy tone, and she wants to go lighter aswell. The change was very nice last time, so how is the result looking this time around?

She got her hair brightened up with a warmer color and cut a good deal shorter. Which gives her a cute stylish look fitting her amazingly well.
What do you think people? Can we beat this on her first visit?
Stick around to find out ;P
Over and out.

The top of Berenike’s hair was very bleached out when she arrived at Afrodita. She wanted it recolored, but she wanted to go darker, so she needed a color correction.

Berenike wanted a natural, ashy, dark brown look. It needed to be toned down from what it was. Yoshiko worked with her to darken the strands. The ends of the hair in the back already had a dark brown color, so the idea was to match that.

The back now has a lot of reddish blonde color added, and the overall appearance of the hair has been darkened.

Some of the highlighted strands were left unchanged to give the hair some style, but really, the rest of the hair was scaled down in terms of brightness. What remains is a style that matches Berenike’s features and skin tone wonderfully.

This was Berenike’s first visit, and because the process would be so involved, the color correction was split over multiple visits.
