Exercise is an important part of remaining healthy and happy, physically as well as mentally. Since it is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I wanted to focus on how physical activity is a key component of overall health and wellness for everyone, but in particular for those living with cancer.
Last month I talked about the importance of knowing your hair’s pliant strength and how to determine what your hair’s pliant strength is. Now, together with Jeffrey Paul Salon Hair Replacement Specialist Megan, let us show you how you can either increase or decrease your hair’s pliant strength in order to create different texturized looks.
October is very widely recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness month, but many of the people I meet are unaware that this first week of October also marks Trichotillomania Awareness Week. Unlike Breast Cancer many people do not know what Tricotillomania is or that it affects 1 out of 50 people.
A woman’s hair is important to her. It is the frame that brings together all of the elements of her face. Hair has a language all its own. It tells the world whether you’re casual or businesslike, playful or serious. So looking down at her brush, and, for the first time, noticing strands of hair can send a woman into a panic. Immediately, she might wonder, “Am I experiencing hair loss, or merely losing a few strands?
We need to ask, are you noticing changes in how your hair looks and feels? Consider this, your hormones could be the reason for these variations.

Do you ever feel like your hair is just dull or really lacking shine? Don’t worry you are not alone. When speaking to women, hair with lack of shine is one of the most common problems women have with their hair. So here are two tips on how to get back that shiny hair you deserve.
1. Use the right kind of brush – A brush that is made with a combination of Mongolian Boar and bristles, will help your hair’s natural oils be able to be distributed equally and throughout each strand making your hair silky smooth.
2. Know what type of hair you have – The texture of your hair is very important when selecting products that will not only repair hair, but also help to add shine.
In the video above, watch as I demonstrate how using the right brush and the right type of product, based on your hair’s texture, will help add back the shine your hair has been lacking.

It’s the opening credits for Pretty Woman, and we see Viv putting on her leather boots as she gets ready. But they are not perfect, so she takes out a black magic marker and colors in the worn spots so they won’t be noticeable. It works – we don’t notice them, and people could relate.
Camouflage makeup is one of the simplest ways to deal with early hair thinning and loss, particularly for those who are experiencing between 10-20% thinning. To do this we can use light powder and liquid covers dark or red spots on skin, and dark and light powders and liquids can conceal thinning areas on scalps. If the right products are used, we can look nearly perfect and no one will notice hair thinning and loss issues. because many of them had been using that technique on their shoes for years before the movie came out.
Here are some of our tips for applying camouflage makeup:
There’s no exact timeline as to how long a hair system will last. It varies on the way you wear and take care of your hair. A hair system will need to be replaced as the hair begins to come lose or thin in the hair system. While a few shedding hairs left on the base of a hair system is expected from the original hand tying process, there are five actions that can cause excessive hair loss, after the delivery of your system, and greatly decrease the life of your hair system.
“This is amazing! This is a new me. I think my hair is better than it was years ago.” – Kristen
Kristen used to not worry about hair loss. She had hair that was thick and full, and it always looked good. A few years ago, her hair began to fall out.

Going from early stage to intermediate stage of female hair thinning, loss and breakage, she decided to seek help from the Jeffrey Paul Salon team.
If given the choice between healthy or unhealthy hair, you would always choose healthy; yet, you may not realize that some of the products that you regularly carry in your purse are damaging your hair.
Is there alcohol in your purse? Before you think, “no way!” you could be mistaken. Go ahead and take a look in your purse. What do you see? Women carry all sorts of items in their purses. You never know what the day may bring! Alcohol is found in perfume, styling aids and other hair products. Perfume contains a lot of alcohol, which is very drying and over time, will open the cuticle layer, increasing the chances of tangling.

“Jeffrey, my hair seems damaged and just does not look the way I want it to, do you think i have damaged hair?” -Ashley
This is a question I hear from my guests or people I meet, who find out that I speacialize in hair! Most people don’t realize how easy it can be to damage hair. Did you know that 9 out of every 10 customers who come in have some form of damaged hair and desperately need to restore their hair with protein? Hair could be damaged from a multitude of things – such as being curled, blow-dried, flat-ironed, color treated and more.
A protein treatment helps repair split ends, it increases the hair’s body, makes hair more manageable, increases hair’s shine, and protects hair against further damage.
With any product, it can be tricky to know the correct amount to use. Everyone’s hair is unique – from length to texture! To be sure you’re not overusing your protein treatment product (and costing yourself more money), use these tips!
Hair is a fabric. Just like with your favorite outfit or that great pair of leather boots you wear… each fabric has a life expectancy based on the amount of use or overuse you put into it. The same is true for your hair replacement system. There’s no exact timeline as to when someone needs a new system or how long a hair system lasts. It varies on the way you wear and take care of your hair.
For the guest, at Jeffrey Paul Salon, who has selected the extended wear attachment option, the wear and tear that goes into wearing a system everyday is quite extensive. Think about it, even your most favorite outfit that you may wear 2 times a week (I won’t tell) gets taken on and off. The extended wear attachment method give the wearer the opportunity to live a more uncompromised life style because the hair system is attached. At the same time it can also cause a hair system to wear even faster.
Whether you have extensions, an integration system or a full hair replacement system, I highly suggest investing in two hairpieces. Why, you may ask? Here are a few of the great benefits having two hair systems, that you are able to alternate each month, can give you:

“Jeffrey, I have made the decision to proceed forward with a hair solution. Before I do so my biggest question is which hair is better for me Human Hair or Synthetic Hair?” ~ Jackie L.

When you become a mother, many things in your life change. Your protective instincts kick in, you become an expert in time management, your sleep pattern changes, and so much more. It’s inevitable.
What about hair loss? Once you have children, hair just doesn’t grow back the same. Jeffrey Paul Salon’s Office Coordinator, Maxie, experienced this first hand after giving birth to her three children. Prior to having kids, she never imagined that hair loss would be a problem for her.
She began to notice the changes in her hair’s texture, color and weight. She would find clumps of hair after taking a shower. These changes weren’t caused from age but as a result from having children. Like others, she initially attributed this hair loss to aging and shrugged it off as one of life’s natural occurrences.
Thankfully, Maxie was able to gain insight into her hair loss because of her career. Working at Jeffrey Paul Salon, allowed Maxie to discover the real reason behind her hair loss and the best possible hair replacement solution.
Through a consultation, contour analysis, and determining which attachment method best suited Maxie, she was able to choose a hair replacement system in which she could go about her everyday life without being self-conscious about her hair loss, how it would affect her and what others would think.
Now, thanks to finding the right hair loss solution, Maxie is able to focus on the most important job…being a mother.
