Makeover: Liz Before and After

Fringe by Carrie selected Liz as their makeover candidate!  We've got some great photos to show you, with Before and After photos.  Liz received a hair cut, top panel highlights, and an eyebrow wax.  

BEFORE

BEFORE

The consultation consisted with learning about Liz's hair care routine, how she likes to wear her hair, and what would flatter her skin and face.  Liz asked for her hair to be "thinned out" in the back because the hair is thick and takes awhile to dry.  Liz wanted to go lighter and wanted a color that would not show any obvious lines of demarcation.  What is the line of demarcation?  The line of demarcation is the line of new hair growth showing.

Cutting

Drying

Carrie's solutions:  Liz likes to wear her hair in a pony tail for work and she enjoys it straightened.  Carrie gave her a long side bang and layered the hair to frame her face on both sides.  Carrie also explained using thinning shears does not create the correct texture to help with the "thick hair".  Instead, Carrie added extra layers in the back to help create movement but also alleviate some of the time used to dry the hair.   

AFTER

For color, Carrie lightened Liz's hair for about 8 minutes, using a top panel partial highlights pattern.  

AFTER

The nice part about Carrie's choice is that it is the perfect choice for non-committal color.  If you're not sure you'll like color, or you just want a small change, this would be great.  It was only a few shades ligher then Liz's natural color and will blend in nicely with any new hair growth.  We will check back in with Liz in a few weeks to see how she is enjoying her color and how her new hair growth is blending with the highlights.

Carrie used a flat iron on Liz's hair to create soft waves.

Maryanne & Friends

Hello everyone!  Fringe by Carrie Salon Studio is very excited to share with you this new network of salons that we have joined with!  Fringe by Carrie has teamed up with Martino Cartier and Maryanne & Friends, and is "united in their mission to ease the stress and pain felt by women battling cancer and suffering from hair loss."  Fringe by Carrie is now the only salon in the Toledo area to be included in this fantastic cause!

Please read on for more information about Maryanne & Friends:

"Maryanne and Friends is a consortium of Beauty Industry Leaders, Salon Owners and Stylists committed to donating much needed hair replacement and styling services to women undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Celebrity Stylist, television personality and salon owner Martino Cartier is the founder of Maryanne and Friends. Martino was deeply touched and inspired by his dear friend, Maryanne McCormick’s brave fight against and triumph over breast cancer. Through watching her cope with the process, he realized how many women needed the opportunity to feel in control of their appearance (and feel better about themselves) during treatment.

By watching women going through treatment, he realized how difficult it could be for many to afford hair replacement. He also discovered how hard it could be to get funding for hair replacement through other organizations or insurance companies. Martino believes every woman undergoing breast cancer treatment is entitled to receive the care and comfort offered by Maryanne and Friends without paying a fee. That is why members of Maryanne and Friends are committed to providing these free services to all women irrespective of their financial circumstances."
