MANILA, Philippines - Get an instant youthful makeover with Salon Beauvoir’s exclusive hair color treatments.
Updating your hair color can do so much for your look and cost much less than a fashion makeover. Tweaking it by a few shades can make a person appear years younger or older. For women, changing hair color could also have a therapeutic effect: it is a change that is not permanent, yet it is akin to starting out with a clean slate.
As Tyra Banks said in her talk show, “Women are rarely born with the hair color for them.” However, changing one’s hair color is not that simple. There are several factors that come into play — your natural hair color, your skin tone, and eye color. The right shade can enhance your features in a flattering light, the wrong shade won’t. This is why getting the services of a professional is very important.
At Salon Beauvoir, French for “a beautiful view,” modern hair color treatments are taken to a whole new level by its roster of hair styling experts. The metro’s newest luxury salon offers hair color and highlights for the modern woman, taking on international trends and creating new color styles available only at Salon Beauvoir.
The Salon offers the Ombre style that is so popular among Hollywood celebrities such as Jessica Beal, Drew Barrymore, Ashley Simpson, Rachel Bilson, Giuliana Rancic and Lauren Conrad. It is referred to as the “low-maintenance blonde” as a good Ombre is a subtle graduation of shades from dark at the roots to light at the ends, letting women get away with darker roots now.
Salon Beauvoir also created three exclusive hair color and highlight styles: the Crystalline, Omega and Victorian. Crystalline is like the reverse Ombre, with lighter shades at the roots and darker at the ends. This style is not only trendy and fashion-forward, it also brightens the face for a more youthful yet striking look. The Omega style has U-shape highlights at the back that add a sexy texture to an already fabulous hairstyle. The Omega works best on medium to long layered hair, with the highlights on the layers to show off the shape of the cut. Lastly, the Victorian is a V-shaped highlights design that frames the face with light colors, an attention-grabbing style that lets your face be the star.
To ensure that you find the right shade for you, Salon Beauvoir’s creative team, led by husband and wife Jojo and Monette Rivera, lends its collective expertise for the customers’ personal beauty needs. Creative director Monette Rivera trained with Vidal Sassoon in Kuala Lumpur and L’Oreal Academie. With more than 20 years of experience in high-end salons in Metro Manila, she currently shares her master colorist knowhow as the featured local guest artist of L’Oreal for 2012. Jojo Rivera is an expert in men’s grooming, with two decades of experience in the industry, he has represented the country in international competitions and has won the prestigious Schwarzkopf Hair Styling Competition. He is the go-to-guy for many male personalities in the country today.
Other members of the team are equally remarkable. Sam Santos has trained in London as part of the Steiner Group — the official hairdresser to the Queen and her guests. Another senior stylist is Danny Abustan who has had more than a decade of hairstyling experience in various luxury salons in Manila.
Naturally, Salon Beauvoir only uses the best and most trusted brands including L’Oreal Inoa and Majirel as well as Davines for hair color, L’Oreal Extenso and Brazilian Blowout for re-texturizing and Kerastase, L’Oreal Pureology and Schwarzkopf for hair treatments and styling.
