Fall Trends with Austin

Fall trends from LAICALE Expert Colorist Austin Burns are milk tea and subtle shimmery blonde. “Rich tones and a fabulous fringe is all you need to feel on point and ready for the season". Austin’s signature style is creating subtle movement and dimension in your hair by enhancing your natural tones with highs and lows customized just for you. For fall he will take you to a warmer zone as ashy tones can wash you out.

Austin always utilizes eye color with a contrast - for example Gigi Hadid’s blue eyes pop because they are contrasted with her warmer golden blonde. Austin’s go-to for this effect is Redken’s Shades EQ - super conditioning and vibrant tones that last until your touch up. When you have green eyes like Jessica Chastain, Austin will take you to the ultimate, customized effect with Redken’s rich and vibrant copper and red family.

Austin’s favorite take home secret is Cristophe Robin’s color masks in Copper, Brunette and Baby Blonde. Organic and sustainably created, they maintain your vibrancy in between salon visits.

Austin knows that clients want to look their best and also maintain their spending plans - he believes he can get you the blonde, brunette and copper tones you want with cost effective visits. 12 weeks for the overall look and then at 6 weeks all you need is a gloss, face frame or root shadow to extend the life of your gorgeous color. “Clients depend on me to look their absolute best at all times. I always books out our appointments and time them for important events and holidays. My best calling card are your beautiful locks!”

Blonding with Sara

BLONDE HAIR: Healthy, shiny blonde hair is achievable - the keys to success are color placement, frequent touch ups, the right product use and realistic expectations. Famed blonde specialist Sara Fiumicelli at LAICALE is convinced that “if a client can visit me every 4-6 weeks for a touch up, I can get her as blonde as she wants because I can focus on the new growth which is healthier and more resilient than previously lightened strands and also not big sections of dark roots”. The key is not to overlap into the already blonde hair but only freshen the roots. Sara uses strategic placement of the blonde strands combined with blonde tipping and balayage and foil work. Sara’s favorite tip? “Before you go to bed apply Olaplex on your ends and face frame and cover with a scarf. Shampoo and condition the next morning. Olaplex does all the work while you sleep!” She also swears by dipping strands in ocean water, covering face and letting the sun enhance those face frame pieces - just like childhood blonde. And if you don’t have time to get to the beach, visit Sara and she’ll mimic Mother Nature. One more reminder. “I love Redken Blondage shampoo once a week to maintain your blonde and reduce brassy tones.”
