Baxter of California Master Barber Katie Lopez Features Skin Fade in Advanced Class

Katie Lopez shared her passion for men’s grooming in our Advanced Class featuring the barbering classic cut -the skin fade. A critical takeaway from the class was, any man can have a skin fade haircut, but not every man can have the same skin fade haircut.

Katie demonstrated using every tool for the haircut – clippers, edgers, razor and shears. No one tool is right for a haircut start to finish, it’s about how to use each tool for its purpose to get the best results!

I loved Katie Lopez’ passion for barbering and hearing her experience working with Baxter of California and competing (and winning!) in the North American Hairstyling Awards!

Baxter of California Global Educator Josh Velazquez Leads Master Men’s Grooming Class

Baxter of California creates carefully curated products that allow men to express their individual signature statement.  Creating a signature look is critical since “Men’s Grooming” is a growing trend, and men are asking for more custom styles to reflect their individuality.  Baxter Global Educator Josh Velazquez shared several techniques to expand our stylists’ range of skills regarding men’s cutting and styling. Samuel Cole Salon’s education has kept stylists’ skills on the forefront of new trends for men.

Velazquez demonstrated a short, textured crop haircut that can be styled polished for a formal evening with Baxter’s Hard Water Pomade or textured for a casual day watching the game with their Clay Effect Style Spray.  Velazquez also demonstrated a taper cut with a short, precise fade – perfect for gentlemen who like to maintain a clean, consistent look.

Josh’s instruction was extremely informative, especially in his demonstration of the close fade. He thoroughly walked us through his thought process from the first trim to the last finishing detail of the look.  He also gave us alternative uses for some of Baxter’s most popular products, like using the Grooming Cream as a beard conditioner!” – Stylist Carmella Williamson

Coby Alcantar + Gardner Edmunds Reveal Inner Layer Haircut

Oribe Educators Coby Alcantar + Gardner Edmunds, highly sought after stylists in the current world of hairdressing.  Coby owns Little Axe Salon in Brooklyn, NY where she creates fun and effortless styles for her clients, and Gardner’s salon home is Ramirez Tran Salon in Beverly Hills, CA.  His notable clients include Lea Michele, Olivia Palermo, Rebecca Minkoff and Kim Cattrall.

Their combined expertise brought incredible energy to this class, which focused cutting inner layers that don’t sacrifice overall length of the hair.  This technique can be used on all lengths of hair.  The final look was a light and airy style that allowed the hair to move freely.  To style the haircut, they used a combination of Oribe Foundation Mist,  Maximista and Featherbalm on damp hair, and twisted the hair damp and let it air dry.

Creating inner layers removed weight and made the haircut look softer.  I love learning from Coby and Gardner together because they showed variations of the same techniques to get an amazing fresh haircut” – Stylist Michelle Larry

Nikki Press ReleaseNikki + Nollie2Q: Tell us about your new life… How’s motherhood?
A: Oh goodness! Motherhood is crazy. All the emotions! It’s been the biggest, most consuming and confusing, rewarding and exhausting blessing I’ve ever experienced. Helping another human grow up is a fascinating experience.

Q: So you’re back to work, how’s that transition been?
A: It is actually wonderful!  You know, leaving your sweet little baby at home sounds heart breaking but I am passionate about my career as a hairstylist.  I love returning to the creativity and the inspiration that I experience on a daily basis.

Nikki PicQ: Now that you’re back into the swing of things, what trends are catching your eye?
A: Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of natural enhancements, which I am totally digging. I love the concept of taking what God gave you and making it amazing – Keeping color rooty but sun kissed in all the right places. I’ve been drawn to utilizing my razor to create natural movement and texture,  I love creating lived-in wearable signature looks for my clients.

A: I do! I am so fortunate to have a new schedule that lets me share my two passions, hairdressing and baby Nollie. I am in the salon Monday through Wednesday and look  forward to seeing long time clients along with new folks in the future!

They are a luxury hair accessory that require more maintenance and care than regular hair. Here's some tips to help you care for extensions.⁠
⁠
◾️ Use Mineral Sunscreen to avoid chemicals that could turn your extensions peach/orangey.⁠
⁠
◾️ Use Rub-on Sunscreen to prevent spray from accidently getting on your extensions.⁠
⁠
◾️ We recommend using salon quality hair care products.⁠
⁠
◾️Use a Serum or Oil daily to hydrate extensions.⁠
⁠
◾️Wear a loose bun or braid when wearing your hair up.⁠
⁠
◾️ Brush extensions gently, working your way up the hair shaft to detangle. Do not brush directly on extension bond.⁠
⁠
◾️ Always apply a heat protection product and use medium heat setting when styling. ⁠

Summer Styling Tips from Advanced Senior Designer Summer Styling Tips from Advanced Senior Designer Stylist, Fallyn!⁠
⁠
How to diffuse your curls! 👩‍🦱⁠
⁠
What your need:⁠
❤️blow dryer with a diffuser⁠
💜clips and combs⁠
💙your favorite curl products! I love all in one milk from davines, davines love curl controller, and davines sea salt spray⁠
⁠
After applying your products, twist your hair in little sections then diffuse with your dryer.⁠
⁠
A few tips:⁠
💛avoid letting your hair sit on the dryer, this dries out the ends of your hair and creates frizz. point the air flow of your dryer down or at your hair⁠
💚try not to disrupt your twists until they are 100% dry⁠
🧡if time allows, let your twists air dry a little before going in with a dryer to save time⁠
