RENE FURTERER TREATMENT ATELIER MAKES WEST COAST DEBUT AT CRISTOPHE SALON;

February 7, 2017

On-Site Consultations And Customized Treatment Plans

Everyone’s hair is different. Many of us go through life complaining about our hair, when really any hair concern stems from the scalp. Now with the patented technology of the Capilliscope, a diagnostic tool that examines the hair at the root bulb, Angelenos can have their hair concerns scientifically diagnosed and treated. The Rene Furterer Treatment Atelier will offer one-on-one consultations by trained Cristophe Salon professionals with on-site treatments and personalized hair care regimes to achieve lust worthy hair.

“A healthy scalp is the foundation of healthy hair,” says Cristophe, Founder of Cristophe Salons. “We are excited to partner with the hair and scalp experts at Rene Furterer to offer our clients the leading technology in the industry that can diagnose all hair concerns. Our trained stylists will formulate a personalized treatment plan while providing a relaxing and luxurious experience.”

“We are very pleased about our partnership with the prestigious Cristophe Salons” adds Francois Viargues, Vice President of Rene Furterer USA. “Cristophe’s team is very talented, they will perform the best hair and scalp diagnosis and offer the appropriate scalp treatment and massages to its clients with our very natural line”.

By magnifying the scalp using the Capilliscope, the Cristophe Salon stylists can determine which personalized hair care ritual is best suited to each individual. Once the diagnosis is determined, the scalp is first prepared and cleansed before applying any treatment. To start, the hair is brushed with a specialized technique to breakdown scalp build-up and stimulate hair follicles. Following is a 9-step massage that relaxes the scalp, improves blood circulation and promotes lymphatic exchange to allow maximum penetration of key ingredients. The hair is shampooed and then the deep conditioning mask and scalp treatment that has been selected is applied. Hair technicians will also provide a suggested at-home regime.

Offered will be instant treatments to enhance color and nourish dry scalp and hair, express treatments to cleanse and soothe the scalp, premium express treatments for thinning hair and hair strengthening, and luxury treatments for hair renewal and nourishing. Clients who have already received the diagnosis can opt to come in just for a wash where they will be shampooed and conditioned with products picked specifically for their needs, get a relaxing 10-minute scalp massage as well as specific scalp and hair treatments.

Philip Kingsley PK Prep: In Search Of Volume Part 1

January 23, 2017

I grew up with a mother who was graced with the most gorgeous locks. No matter what style she chose, each piece would continue to know its role in landing effortlessly and beautifully, it was a talent to say the least. My father, although incredibly equipped with many fantastic features, hair was not one of them. Sadly, I inherited his thin wispy hair and have spent most of my adult life hunting for that magical serum to add luster and volume to these unfortunate locks of mine. As we girls go through our own journey into vanity, trial and error play a role and most of the serums that came into my life did not hold up their end of the bargain.

Until Philip Kingsley PK Prep came along and boy oh boy do they understand the concept of plumping. I can finally report that I do see a difference and that difference is grand. I love this serum, it does what it says it is going to do and I know we ladies appreciate that in more ways then one. Try it, love it, see your hair turn into what you have always wanted it to be. Full of life, healthy happy voluminous hair.

Cuvee Beauty Hair Care

Cuvee Beauty

*A French term referring to a blend of the best of the batch, first pressed grapes used to make a high quality, prestige blend of champagne.

161130_elloway_rk_cuvee_shot_03_0074-smallCUVEE Founder & CEO Rachel Katzman went to Las Vegas for her 21st birthday and was unexpectedly doused in champagne. Twenty-one bottles later, Rachel realized that her hair looked BETTER drenched in champagne than it had when it was professionally styled. She became obsessed with how soft, shiny, and textured the champagne left her hair and realized this accidental discovery must be bottled.  She kept testing her theory—spraying and styling with champagne. VOILÁ! The result was the same – all tousle, no frizz – the most perfect hair waves without any effort.Rachel dedicated herself to finding the right team to formulate the exact concoction that would leave hair looking flawless and healthy. Combining only top-of-the-line ingredients, the CUVEE COMPLEX™ was born. It is a carefully crafted blend of: Champagne Extracts for soft, shiny hair that provides antioxidant properties to guard against damage from pollution. White Truffle Extracts add moisture. Platinum Extracts detoxifies the hair and scalp. Plant proteins nourish and protect from UV Rays. Resveratrol slows down the process of hair loss. Ceramides help repair hair fibers resulting in stronger, thicker, more resilient hair.

Rachel made sure to put as much care into developing a fragrance that would be so captivating, it would create a seductive experience. This unique scent combines notes of champagne and fig, formulated in Grasse, France — the fragrance capitol of the world.
