Echo & Wendy's Product Pick - "FOREVER FLAT IRON"

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:54:00 -0400

Hi Everyone,

We LOVE this flat iron! Echo gave up her Chi flat-iron because she loves this one SO much - it makes the hair super-smooth, beautifully straight and you don't have to run over the hair as many times as other ceramic irons so it's not as damaging to your hair. We have this available on our on-line store or feel free to call with any questions. Also - if you really want silky smooth, straight hair you may want to consider scheduling a "Keratin Smoothing Complex" treatment with Echo - it's faster than the Japanese method and much healthier for your hair.

As always - I love hearing your comments and suggestions - feel free to post a reply!

Judi Collier

Basic Features of the "Forever" Flat Iron:

The Herstyler classic, straight forward ceramic straightener features:

Solid ceramic plates that guarantee fast and smooth straightening results without pulling or breaking hair. True ceramic plates generate 6 times more negative ion than regular ceramic iron

Hair will be three times smoother and silkier than with ordinary ceramic straightening irons

Cut your hair straightening time in half thanks to high concentration of negative ions

Negative ions renew your hair's natural softness and shine and eliminates frizziness

Ultra-light: The body of the straightener is constructed using light-weight, high-strength composite materials, commonly used in the aerospace industry

Ultra-fast: Achieve the desired temperature in less than 25 seconds (half the time of conventional models). This in turn saves electricity and prolongs the lifespan of the product. Please note that the irons should be switched off when not in use using the On/Off switch on the temperature control thermostat

Pearatins Fortifying Repairative Serum - Echo & Wendy's Pick of the Month!

Thu, 23 Jul 2009 14:24:00 -0400

Echo and Wendy’s product pick of the month is “Pearatin’s Fortifying Repairative Serum” Echo says, “I use this product with my client’s every day because it makes their hair look healthy, reduces frizz is super lightweight and it works great for any hair type.” Echo also likes that a little goes a long way - you don’t need more than a dime size amount to run through your hair. It’s conditioning and styling and gives your hair a smooth, finished look.

We suggest you use it on your hair replacement system between washes, when your hair is looking dull & limp it will add shine and luster and put life back into your hair. Wendy like’s that it has a time-released Keratin protein treatment so it not only makes the hair look pretty but repairs it from the inside out and it smells fantastic : )

It’s ThermalColor protection supports color treated hair and protects hair against the heat of your blow dryer or flat iron And as you know the most important aspect of caring for your hair replacement system is understanding that it does not have the natural oils you have in your own hair so anything that will hydrate or fortify the hair in your hair system is a good thing.

You can order this and other great products to support the health and longevity of your hair system at our On-line store. If you have questions about a product or any aspect of caring for your hair system please feel free to call us toll free at 1-877-457-2322 or send us an email at info@williamcollierdesign.com our expert technicians are here to help!

As always I welcome your thoughts and comments – feel free to post a reply on this or any of our other blogs – or at our on-line forum.

To Whom it may concern,

I usually do not take the time to send a reply regarding my received order...but was so impressed I felt I should.

Thank you so very much for taking such care when sending my shampoo etc. I received my order today the 26th.

I will continue to order these products from you...even though I could get them at the salon. Its actually a bit cheaper, even with shipping, to order from you... but mostly, because I am so happy with the effort you made to insure the packing was done properly ( amazing what a little tape over the tops can do...lol )

Thank you again!

Wendy & Echo's product picks for April 2009 - PUREOLOGY - serious color care!

Thu, 23 Apr 2009 17:43:00 -0400

At last, The sun is finally coming out! As we celebrate the much appreciated extra dosage of Vitamin D, we want to remind you that too much sun exposure can quickly fade color-treated hair; all hair replacements are color treated.

To help maintain the color of your hair and/or your hair replacement system at its most vibrant & glossy best, Echo & Wendy highly recommend The Pureology EssentialRepair Line of AntiFade products for distressed and color-treated hair.

Color-treated hair has special needs. Receiving a customized treatment prescribed by a professional will ensure longer lasting color results and shiny, healthy hair from the inside-out. In between appointments with your colorist you can confidently treat your own hair with Pureology’s line of hair care products.

The AntiFadeComplex has an exclusive blend of potent antioxidants and full spectrum of UVA/UVB sunscreens that neutralizes free radical damage, maximizes color retention and protects hair from thermal damage. Additionally their ZEROSulfate Shampoo is completely free of harsh color-stripping sulfates and salts…which is especially great for hair replacement systems.

Also, Pureology uses all natural ingredients and Aromatherapy essences in each of it’s products. Vitamin-infused products fortify hair and deliver vital nourishment with protein-rich soymilk and a concentrated dose of pure biotin. Organic botanicals of nurturing olive oil and chamomile restore softness and healthy shine

Why are these ingredients so great, you ask?

· Soymilk: Protein-dense infusion reconstructs, repairs, and strengthens hair.

· Biotin: Pure, nutrient-rich supplement targets damaged hair’s core for inner repair.

· Organic Botanicals: Chamomile provides extra nourishment for increased softness and shine and Olive Oil deeply conditions and hydrates to increase manageability and luster.

· Aromatherapy: is the use of essential oils from plants for healing. It has been used for nearly six thousand years for spiritual, therapeutic, hygienic & ritualistic purposes. Through the incredibly powerful sense of smell, the receptors in your nose communicate with two structures embedded in your brain that serve as storehouses for emotions and memories. Researchers believe the once stimulated these structures influence our physical and emotional health. Each Pureology fragrance is carefully chosen to evoke a pleasant and relaxing experience whether at the salon or home.

We are proud to offer Pureology hair care products at our On-Line store – if you have any questions about this, or any other product we offer please feel free to call or email us today.

Enjoy the sunshine!

Canvas Heads and other great tools for your Hair Replacement System!

Sat, 18 Apr 2009 15:29:00 -0400

Great Tools for Hair Replacement Wearer’s

There are a couple of very simple tools that can make a huge difference in the ease with which you style and care for your hair replacement. One of these is a Canvas Head - these are more durable, more stable and therefore, provide a much more comfortable and easy way to style your hair replacement while using a blow dryer or any hot-tool. Canvas heads come in varying diameter sizes so you are able to order one that will fit the size of your wig perfectly so as not to stretch out the base, helping to increase the longevity of your system. It has the added benefit of absorbing moisture after shampooing so the hair can dry faster vs. a styrofoam head where the moisture just sits on top.

You can also purchase a long-neck canvas head which is great for longer pieces because it prevents the hair from hitting the top of the counter/table and ruining a finished hair style.

Other styling tools that can make a difference in your ability to work with and style your hair replacement easily and professionally are wig stands; including suction clamps, counter-top clamps and full tripods. These tools are used to place the canvas (or styrofoam) head on thereby providing a firm and secure/anchored base. You can then use any hot-tool to create whatever style you desire

The tripod is a wonderful tool to use to place your canvas head on that will give you a very secure base and 360 degree access to the head – which makes styling very easy. So rather than having to stop mid-style, turn the head to reach the next section of hair you simply move around the head working each section as needed.

Echo & Wendy's March Product Pick is Performaxx Ad Matte No Shine Tape

Wed, 25 Mar 2009 18:29:00 -0400

Echo & Wendy’s pick of the month for March isn’t sexy but it IS a great product! Performaxxe AdMatte Tape is the first NO SHINE, long lasting tape – it can last as long as 3 weeks and is a wonderful product for those with active lifestyles. You can feel confident that your hair-piece will remain secure and in-place, even if you have oily skin. To re-activate the tape simply rub with 99% alcohol

For use on lace fronts, we highly recommend using Lace Release to avoid any damage when removing the AdMatte Tape from the delicate lace front.

You can find this product on our website! If you have questions about this, or any other product we carry please don’t hesitate to call or email us for more information.

Each month our extremely talented stylists/technicians, Wendy and Echo - the women who make our clients look and feel fabulous - pick a product they particularly like and want to share with you. Since it's February and wherever you are in the country you're dealing with some form of WEATHER with a capital "W"; they chose a great hairspray from Sukesha - read below for their comments and please contact us if you'd like more information.. You can also order this and other hair & hair-replacement products directly from our on-line store.

Judi Collier

Wendy & Echo love Sukesha Maximum Hold Hairspray – they say it works great in the windy weather! Wendy likes that it’s dry, not sticky and Echo likes that it smells great and has all natural ingredients including; plant botanical extracts, protein and Pro-Vitamin B-5. Another good thing is that it brushes out easily, and you don’t need to shampoo before brushing. Sukesha also has built in “climate control” so the hair will not feel gummy or tacky under high humidity – additionally it includes sun-protectors to keep your hair strong and healthy. This is a fast drying formula and holds shaped hair and styles longer (even under windy conditions)!

We love this product and we’re confident you’ll love the way it holds your hairstyle – all day and into the evening.
