Best Hair Color For Your Complexion

Much like shoes, your hair color can work for you or against you. And it instantly can change how you look entirely.

So today, DuSol Beauty is going to teach you how to match up your complexion with the best hair colors.

Most of you already know if your skin tone is fair, medium, olive or dark... But it is also important to determine your natural skin undertone.

Hold out your wrists under direct sunlight and look at your blood vessels. If they are greenish, you have a warm skin tone. If they have a bluish tint to them, you have a cool skin tone.

From here on, choosing the color to make you look your best is simply a piece of cake!

If you are warm-fair... your peachy skin will look absolutely perfect against warmer shades of the blonde range. The combination of colors will give you a very radiant and youthful appearance.

If you are cool-fair... With such porcelain skin, you need colors that will give you a striking definition. We recommend a strong color like red!

If you are warm-medium... go for blonde or brown shades and throw in some highlights if you feel you want to have that little oomph! They will inject your look with plenty of life and brighten up your whole face instantly.

If you are cool-medium... heat up your look with some warm blond or brown shades that will work well with your rosy undertone. Try asking your stylist for those colors with ashy undertones.

If you are warm-olive... really bring out the enchantment of your warm skin with shades of dark brown! But it is important not to go jet black; you still want that bit of lightness to balance the color tones out.

If you are cool-olive... opt for reddish-brown shades that will complement your green-ish undertone very well and instantly give you a brighter look.

If you are warm-dark... choose from a range of rich-brown shades. Fill up those tresses with warm colors that will not contradict for natural skin tone, but enhance it instead.

If you are cool-dark... you can even out the colors on your face with deep dark colors. They will give your a very 'natural beauty' look, while still bouncing off colors that will give you very soft contours on your visage.

Hair quick fix: Vodana Hair Brush Iron

1st time using hair tool? Not sure which one to purchased? Worried about getting your fingers burnt? 

Vodana hair brush iron is your best choice! With a safe hatch, fingers are kept away from the heated ceramic plates. The iron comes in the shape of a tooth comb which allows your hair to brush smoothly and evenly across the iron plates. Definitely a great tool for newbies to work with! Here's some videos of our Senior hairstylists, as they demonstrates how they work on their hair with this amazing hair styling tool manufactured in Korea.

Size

This hair brush comes in 4 sizes (17mm, 21mm, 26mm, 31mm). The bigger the barrel the loosely the curls. 17mm is best recommended for for short hair length (fringe) or Man's styling. 26mm is good for most type styling. 

Temperature 

For fine hair, we would recommend a 160℃, Normal hair 180℃ and thick hair 200℃. If you are not too sure, start with a smaller temperature on a small section of your hair. (You wouldn't want to burnt your hair just to make things worst when you are in a rush of time ^^)

Important: Don't forget to apply some heat protectant on your hair before you work with any heating tools!

C-Curls

1. Switch on the power switch and lookout for the blinking red light signalling that it is ready for use.

2. Section your hair into smaller sections and start from the lower section then slowly move up to the crown (top).
3. Place a small section of your crown hair on the hair brush and hold it for about 5 secs.

4. Next move the hair brush downwards toward the ends.

5. Hold the hair ends and turn the brush in the direction of your face to create inward curls. 

6. Repeat step 3-5 for all the sections.
7. Finish up with a styling cream for your curls last throughout the day.

S-Curls

1. Switch on the power switch and lookout for the blinking red light signalling that it is ready for use.

2. Section your hair into smaller sections and start from the lower section then slowly move up to the crown (top).

3. Place a small section of your crown hair on the hair brush and hold it for about 5 secs. 

4. Move down the brush and twirl your hair at mid-length around the hair brush. Hold it for about 5 secs.

5. Unwind the hair away from the hair brush. 

6. Repeat step 3-5 for all the sections.

7. Use your finger and run through the curls to create a loose and volume curls. 

8. Finish up with a styling cream for your curls last throughout the day.

Inverted C-Curls

1. Switch on the power switch and lookout for the blinking red light signalling that it is ready for use.

2. Place a small section of your crown hair on the hair brush and hold it for about 5 secs. 

3. Next move the hair brush downwards toward the ends.

4. Hold the hair ends and turn the brush away from the direction of your face to create outward C-curls. 

5. The end results would be a voluminous hair body followed by C-curls at the bottom which curls outwards from your face to create that playful look.

Korean Perm in Singapore Hair Salon

Envious of the celebs hairstyles in dramas and magazine covers? Yes, Korean celebs often grace the cover of magazine with a wavy hairstyle. In fact, most of them are actually temporary curls achieved through hair styling tools. However, it can be a hassle if you have to style it on a daily basis in order to achieve that wavy texture like those you have seen on the magazines! Why not have a go at permanent hair curls? It will definitely free up some time of yours for a cup of coffee or tea. ^^

Over the year, our Korean stylist team have come out with many great Korean Perm hairstyles. Here's a collation of Korean Perm just in case you have missed it. To clear up some misconceptions of Korean Perm, all perm hairstyle does require some effort in enhancing and maintaining the curls. It's the amount of effort that you have to put in that differs when you choose from the various kind of Korean Perm.

Korean perm that have a straight or rebonded at the mid hair portion tends to require minimum effort when comes to after shower hair routine. If you opt for Korean Perm that has rigid or vivid curls, blow-drying and applying of curling cream will play a huge part in the outcome of your hair curls.

In Dusol Beauty, we offers a comprehensive solution to your hair when you get a Korean Perm with us. We offer a bundle package for our Korean Perm which includes a haircut and post treatment at $398. Haircut is mandatory for a Korean Perm as our stylists would need to get the right hair shape before they proceed with their chemical processes. As many would have known, any chemicals or heat applied on the hair will have some chemical reactions on your hair. Therefore a hair treatment is much needed to repair your hair shaft after your perm. It's a big NO NO to opt out of a hair treatment right after your Perm. The same applies to coloring services too.

Hair Advice : Men's Down Perm

Here's KIM WOO BIN INSPIRED DESIGNER PERM done by EDWARD KIM, Dusol Beauty's senior Korean hairstylist:

Often not, men are faced with a head of stubborn hair.

Short hair length contributes to the above mentioned. As you can see in the picture (left) below, the male model’s hair is in a mess with the hair at the sides pointing out. Many men with this hair type would face some difficulties when they style their hair with wax. 

Senior hairstylist, Erica Baik suggests a Down Perm for a more manageable hair. This perm is design to target at the sides of the hair only. The end result of this perm is curling the pointy hair downwards. The male model took about 1.5 to 2 hours to complete his Down Perm. With this perm, he does not have to take a long time to tame his rebellious hair before stepping out of his house.

Top Korean actors such as Kim Soo Hyun, Kim Bum, Kim Woo Bin, Jang Hyuk and Won Bin were spotted with this Down Perm hairstyle.

Hair Advice : Tips For Managing Your HAIR LOSS

Don't you think your hair has gotten lesser compared to the past? There is a growing number of people who worries about their hair loss. The causes can range from simple and temporary to more complex issues such as genetic factors . Hair loss symptom has become a huge problem among young people due to excessive dieting, irregular life style as well as skin irritation due to air pollution. It's hard to recover when symptoms has surfaced. But, the good news is that hair loss is a fully manageable condition if you tackle it early with the help of effective shampoos, conditioners, and treatments. Our Korean senior designer Edward Kim suggested a few ways on how to take care of your hair loss problem.

1. Wash & Blow your hair in the right way

It's good to shampoo your hair and acupressure with your fingertips or use a hair brush to reduce irritation of the scalp. And the most important thing is to rinse your hair thoroughly after shampooing at least 5 times. Hair Loss Only shampoo is essential, definitely. Start to blow-dry your hair from your crown and move down to dry the rest of your hair. Adjust your hair dryer to lukewarm temperature and when it's dripping wet, dry off your hair with cool air.

   

2. Avoid Ultraviolet (UV) Rays

UV rays does not only affect your skin's health but your hair as well. Exposing your hair to the sun can weaken it, dry it out, make it lose its shine and results in hair loss. Wear a hat(remember not to put it on tightly) or carry a umbrella to protect your scalp from the harmful UV rays.

   

3. Change your Eating Habits

Stay away from the foods that can aggravate your hair loss and switch to the foods that promotes healthy hair growth. So, foods like black sesame, black soybean, green tea, and collagen-rich pig skin should be added to your diet.

4. Try to Avoid Stress

Stress is another cause for hair loss because it produces a contraction in the blood vessels that also supply blood to you hair pores. As a consequence, your scalp becomes malnourished and your hair gets weaker which in turn leads to hair fall.

Senior Hairstylist, Edward Kim recommends two Hair Loss Only products <NIOXIN and KERASTASE( SPECIFIQUE BAIN STIMULISTE)>. Both these products are famous for treating Hair loss problem and received many good reviews around the world.

 

NIOXIN
