Higher, Bigger, Taller Hair is what's being shown on Chanel's Pre-Fall Collection and its Rockin'
From girl-group bouffant's to New Wave Dye jobs, rock inspired hair is back -- in a big way. Yee-haw! I see new wave influences, styles from the hospital when I was born (the 50's), those funny Japanese cartoons, Dolly Parton & Gwen Stefani in a weird-ola mix, its kind of all over the board: pleasing.
What happens in Hair & Fashion is they take it from the street & re-luxe it. When I was in Malibu everyday in the Salon... I saw many times the hair styles coming from the skaters and surfers that shot by our Salon every day...having many as clients that stemmed from both worlds was very inspiring.
Now, there is the fusion between music, clubs, movies, and fashion with people like Lily Allen, Gwen Stefani and yes before we found out
Amy Winehouse was doing exactly that...having to much wine -- delivered to her house!! we loved her hair and her style - I still believe she is what gave the beehive-teased-huge volume look its wonder-start.
Experimenting with your hair has long been the cheapest & quickest way to impress your friends and appall the parents. The tack its taking now is shocking only if one is prone to embarrassment at the very idea of both a 50's and 70's - hairdo replay. Its a turn away from everything being about money, which was making me very sick to my stomach...this change to simple - old fashioned - reasonable - hair styles, in my eyes is heart warming. Kind of like watching an episode of Mad Man - warm & fuzzy.
Coming across a wonderful "find" to those of you looking for Volume, was todays bright light. Some are looking for the fashion> Va-Va Voom volume...some just for mini-everyday volume...here is your product.
I don't care how much hair you have and how great you are at teasing . . getting these huge volume hair styles they are showing everywhere from Kors ....to Kohls do not get that high without some covert help. In the frantic pace of hair shows we use to cut up various pieces of foam into all sorts of weird shapes and sizes . . . then spray them with floral paint, because we could get the colors of the hair we were tinting the hair to (to be hidden). It was easy to shove bobby pins into them but they shed, I cannot tell a lie and what a nightmare to produce, never knowing how thick or thin we needed them .
- So a girl from Fresno.......
- named Kelly..................
- got inspired by Donny Deutsch's show (my inspiration for this Blog -->The Big Idea on CNBC)....................
- took her idea, kept secret for a while, & "went for it".
I truly think she came up with a great idea. She calls them BUMPITS -- Volumizing Inserts and the company's name is BIG HAPPIE HAIR! How fantastic !
The self gripping styling tools, which come in 2 sizes are inserted under a section of hair wherever height is desired -- no teasing required! Bumpits come in 4 shades --
- light blonde
- medium blonde
- brunette
- black
They have a 30 day guarantee and are a reasonable $19.99 for 4 BUMPITS
Having not seen them in my hands, I can only see a small portion ( her patent is pending) so don't really know how they are made, but being guaranteed for 30 days - you cannot really lose - can you? I would try them they sound great and she met with the proper people to have manufactured. Those of you that complain about your thin hair, I bet this might be your way to BIG HAPPIE HAIR!
Tell her I sent you - please!
