Love the way your hair looks when you leave the salon, but feel like you’re not able to replicate your style at home?
You’re probably not using the right tools and products for your hair. While your stylist does have training and skills that you may not have, their secret is using professional grade tools that are suited to your hair type.
If you think that any old brush or dryer will do, then look no further than your next visit to Alice Hair to set yourself up for success when replicating your style at home.
We sell a large variety of professional grade brushes in every size and shape under the sun. They’re not all created equal, so your stylist will be able to send you home with the correct brush for the style they’ve created.
Also, don’t think that hairdryer from 2003 is still doing the job. It’s time to upgrade, either with one of the great low-price blowdryers on the market right now (we like Babyliss), or with one of the Wella or Turbo Twin professional grade dryers we sell at Alice Hair.
You’ve already invested in a new cut and/or color. Now it’s time to maintain that style between visits to maximize your investment and enjoy your hair every day, not just when you’re walking out of the salon.
Are you trapped in a state of hair indecision? Curly? Straight? Curly? Straight?
Now there’s no reason for you to choose. There’s a new member of the Alice Hair team that can help you out with both, and it’s hot hot hot!
Literally.
Meet the flatiron that Alice calls “the best I’ve ever used” – the Creative Styling Iron SCW. Designed for use with Brazilian straightening services (so you KNOW it gets the job done!), this iron is a professional-grade tool that will make all those styles, both curly and straight, achievable for anyone. A few of its features include:

Product Recipe for Curly Hair:
Wash and condition your hair with Thickening Shampoo and Conditioner to add both volume and shine. Towel dry hair and spray with Prep styling spray, then comb out tangles with your fingers. Distribute a small amount of Leave-In Conditioner through the hair, and then blowdry or allow the hair to dry naturally. Once the hair has dried, spray it lightly with Does It All Spray for extra protection against heat, and use your new iron to create extra curl, as demonstrated in this video:
Finish the style with Does It All Spray for hold.
Recipe for Straight Hair
Wash and condition with Straight Hair and Conditioner. Towel dry, spray with Prep styling spray, and comb through tangles with a wide-toothed comb. Distribute a small amount of Straight Blow Dry balm through the hair, and blow dry using a round brush for body. When the hair has completely dried, lightly spray hair with Does It All Spray for protection, and run the iron slowly over each piece of hair you’d like to straighten, from the roots to ends. Finish with a mist of Does It All Spray.
IMPORTANT: Never use an iron on wet hair. Make sure hair is completely dry before applying heat.
I know how hard it is to run a business. I say this with love – being a woman in business is a harder stand to take now more than ever in an unstable economy.
So being a woman, I have spent hours in bookstores standing in the self help section. Over the years, I’ve read so many books to change and better my life. Some books I have read and incorporated into my life, and others? Well, they are still sitting waiting on me to reading them…
February is about is change and love. Changing what you do on a daily basis to let love in. For a female businessowner like myself, this means and learning about other woman who have stepped into their power and who show us all how it is done with fun and laughter…
Here are a few of my favorite women, who inspire me to take a leap of faith in my own business. Why not take your own leap of faith by checking out their business, or other businesses owned and operated by women?
