Summer is here and just because you don’t have time to lounge by the ocean everyday, there’s no reason your hair shouldn’t look sexy and beachy. You are already familiar with Bumble & bumble’s Surf Spray that helps give your hair a sun-dried and wind-swept look; now Bb has released Surf Foam Wash Shampoo & Creme Rinse Conditioner, and they are marvelous! We immediately became obsessed with the new shampoo & conditioner after using them because they miraculously give hair an airy softness with a seabreezy texture.
If you’re not convinced yet, book a blowout with us so we can wash away your doubts.

Adam and Emily worked together on a photo shoot for DHC skincare. You can find the ad with their handiwork in Allure Magazine’s February issue. Emily said it was a 1960′s-inspired shoot, so she wanted to give the hair a look of subtle volume. To achieve this style she used a classic Audrey Hepburn image. She added Bb Texture in the model’s hair before the blow dry to add thickness. Then using Bb Classic Hairspray she did backcombing at the crown of the hair to get the perfect amount of volume.
Kudos to Adam and Emily for working so hard on their days off from the salon!

We’ve always loved Bumble and bumble’s Thickening line of shampoo, conditioner, spray, and serum for giving fine-haired folk a chance at volume. However, it’s a great line for all hair types (maybe just a little more appreciated by the fine-haired, though). The shampoo and conditioner combo moisturizes without weighing down the hair, helps seal split ends, and tames pesky flyaway hairs. The Thickening Spray works wonders in adding styling volume to any hair type, and the Thickening serum is great for strengthening the hair.
Just when we thought our hair had all the voluminous help it needed, Bb has blessed us with two new products for the Thickening family. The Full Form Mousse inflates hair when added to heat to lift and shape full-bodied styles. The Creme Contour is a pliable shaping creme that turns into a light-weight paste to create hi-definition silhouettes and styles.
