the latest hair care and hair style information from Patrick Melville

A few months back I wrote about the AVEENO hair care line – Active Naturals shampoos and conditioners.   I also discussed Patrick Melville (below) and his role in creating the line with AVEENO and how AVEENO shampoo and conditioner is always in my hair care rotation, so I’m not going to repeat myself on its greatness.

Now we can learn more about the latest in hairstyles from Patrick.  Patrick has put together this quick video of color and cutting trends.  Take a look by clicking the link below, it’s worth the couple of minutes.

AVEENO® Presents – Celebrity Hairstylist, Patrick Melville’s Tips on Cutting & Color Trends from Ali Kalis on Vimeo.

Patrick has some additional tips for transitioning our hair from summer to fall.

“When going to the beach those final days of summer, apply any of the AVEENO® NOURISH+ conditioner throughout hair to protect hair from the UV rays. In addition, always bring a hat or scarf to cover hair from the sun.  Coming out of the pool or ocean, make sure to rinse hair well with fresh water and apply some NOURISH+ conditioner and comb evenly through the hair.  This will remove the chlorine or salt from the hair and put moisture back in.”

“After the hot summer, you want to cut off those beach/pool frizzy ends. Shampoo and Condition hair with AVEENO® NOURISH+ line to restore hair vitality and elasticity.  If you color your hair, it is time to go a little warmer with your color. Try using AVEENO® LIVING COLOR™ to help restore shine back into the hair that was lifted out from the UV rays during those summer months.”

“Now that we’ve finally beat the humidity, hair will be a little smoother with less texture and you will be adding more shine to your blowdry. Coming out of summer, I always feel hair length should be brought up the neckline a bit. This also helps rejuvenate the hair after those summer months.”

Thanks for all the great advice, Patrick!
