Interview with Sparrow Salon Owners hair color, hair salons, interviews, musicians | (2)
I lived in Chicago for many years, and although Los Angeles is truly home now, Chicago will always hold a spot in my heart. It’s weird to see the city move on without me, kinda like when you cyber stalk ex-boyfriends and realize they have totally new lives without you. How is that possible?! Sparrow is the new big-deal hair salon in Chicago. Owners Susan Flaga and Bathsheba Nemerovski opened the salon in a 120 year-old building in Logan Square, and they’ve gotten tons of attention ever since--the New York Times called Bathsheba one of Chicago's best-kept secrets. Well, the ...

Hair Inspiration: Ruby Rose bangs, blonde hair, brunette, hair inspiration, short hair | (9)
More hair inspiration today! This time from Ruby Rose, an MTV VJ in Australian. I love her faux hawk; it's so cute on her. This would be such an awesome summer hairstyle... Ruby also had a slightly shorter version of this cut that was super platinum--almost white. And she's had her hair tinted pastel blue. Back in 2008, Ruby had long layered back hair with bold blunt bangs. She's also had an asymmetrical bob with blunt bangs. I think all these style look great on her! What do you guys think?

Hair Inspiration: Colorful Extensions celebrity hairstyles, extensions, fashion, hair color, hair inspiration | (0)
The use of colorful extensions during New York Fashion Week Spring ’10 was a major trend at shows like Proenza Schouler and Zac Posen. Cynthia Rowley continued this trend during her Fall ’10 show. As I discussed on HOTB, Wella Master Colorist Eva Scrivo created the colored extensions for Cynthia. The designer loved the look so much that she went back to Eva’s salon and got her own hair colored with navy streaks! Celebs are also sporting this colorful hair trend, including Ashley Olsen, who had pastel blue hair streaks à la Proenza Schouler, and Kelly Osbourne who did the ...

Hair Inspiration: Katie Gallagher fashion, hair color, hair inspiration | (3)
refinery29 asked up-and-coming New York designer Katie Gallagher the question I would ask: How do you get your hair that color? "I'm naturally very blonde; so when I dye the entire thing cool blonde and use the right toner, I get a blue/gray hue," she says. "It's basically what happens to the grandmas you see that have light pink, purple, or blue hair. They had a little chemical accident with their color and the toner mixture...or they're just really cool."

Gone Blue fashion, hair color | (9)
At first I thought this was more gray hair. This time on Style Rookie's Tavi Gevinson. Front row at Fashion Week! Lela pointed out that it's actually blue, which you can tell a lot better in this pic. In the top one, it just makes her look like one of those crazy old ladies that dyes their hair that accidental shade of blue/gray. Crap. She's growing on me. I love the blue...
