Colorist Heralds Creativity in Awar...

John Simpson of Lewis Salon traded his yoko scissors for a coloring brush instead. He created this look, as one of several in a colo collection that he said allowed him to re–igninte his creativity. Simpson recently won the Best Haircolor award from the Professional Beauty Association during the 19th annual North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) – the color at left is from his award-winning collection, in which he wove different “stories” of texture and color.

Simpson, a stylist from Pittsburgh, PA, will be one of the people presenting a variety of techniques, cuts colors and more on TheCuttingEdgeHairShow.com
He used brilliant blondes, matte browns and many more techniques to create “something that not only inspires others” but also re-inspired him to get creative with his work. His collection features several photographs of different cuts, color, and style combinations. He showed that often, amazing looks can be created without specific use of shears – hair can be colored and styled expertly!
In the journey from the idea, through the creation of the line, and finally to the award, he said his biggest challenge was to make sure he actually followed through and “did it!”

Blondes Might Not Have More Fun ...

According to new research, blondes have more sex appeal. A team of experts in the UK found a link between a sexually active behavior and hair dye. The study revealed that women who dye their hair blonde are more sexually active, because – the study shows – blonde women are more confident and are more likely to initiate sex. Apparently, you don’t need a fancy hair cut, fancy shears, or Yoko scissors - just some good ol’ blonde dye.

“Coloring your hair may seem like an art to most people, but there is actually a lot of science behind it,” said the lead researcher on the study. “The changes we noted in the study participants’ behavior and psychology were significant.”

The team reached their findings after studying 205 women aged between 25 and 66 who dyed their hair. In their study, the researchers found more than 50% of the study participants colored their hair simply to gain attention from strangers or be noticed by friends and co-workers.

Also, the women who dyed their hair blonde were more likely to discuss the topic of a pay raise at work, or raise complains, and ask someone out on a date than women who did not color their hair.

“Not only were their confidence and mood levels elevated but also their inhibitions seemed to be mitigated with many reporting feeling more attractive and sexually exciting,” Dr Sergeant – the head reseracher – said, “there was a marked improvement in the ability to express their opinions and ask for things that they may not ask for ordinarily in a work environment.”

“Across the board participants viewed coloring their hair as something that raised their confidence. They were prepared to ask for things they wouldn’t normally be confident enough to ask for.
