2011 Photo Shoot with Rhys Albrecht

mod — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 02:47:08 +0000

We had a great time this summer with Rhys and about 10 of our beautiful clients (not to mention our great staff and some very helpful friends!). We thank everyone that took part for all they did to make it such a successful day and greatly successful shoot!

The theme we went with this year kept in the mod vein and decided to form a band with our beautiful models, and we called this band “The Modbots!” Take a look at the gallery below and you will see that we had a lot of fun, and if you want to see the shots up close and personal, come on down to Modsalon at 1508 Water Street in downtown Kelowna!

Tired of back-combing? If you’re constantly fighting gravity while trying to create volume in your hair style, then you definitely need to try Label.M’s “Resurrection Dust” at Mod Salon. All you need to do with this magic product is lightly sprinkle the fine powder at the root of your blow-dried hair and massage it in! You will be blown away by the lift and texture, as your hair defies gravity. It is our new favorite product here at Mod, and we’d love to show you how it works. Come on in to get sassed up, and be prepared for massive, tousled volume!

Mod Tip 4: Blonde, Stay Blonde

mod — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 01:03:14 +0000

And now the second tip of the week.

We all know people love going for a lighter look in the summer months and keeping those blonde locks from going brassy can be a challenge. Swimming, tanning, and sun-bathing can all cause a loss of tone in blonde hair. So this tip relates to all the blondies out there.

Using REDKEN Blonde Glam will help to restore tone back into the hair. Use once a week in place of your regular conditioner, leave for five minutes and rinse.

REDKEN Blonde Glam – Perfect Platinum: Neutralizes brassiness and warm tones to revive the ultra pale light blonde hair. Gives a multi-dimensional shine, and also deeply conditions.
REDKEN Blonde Glam – Rich Vanilla: Rejuvenates the warmth in blonde hair and highlights. It deeply conditions, strengthens, and revitalizes blonde strands.

Mod Tip 3: The Hair Mask

mod — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 00:58:31 +0000

Good Morning Fellow Mods!
I hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine, and the summer.
Much apologies for missing last weeks tip of the week, so this week there will be two tips of the week!

The first tip of the week is to put on a hair mask before going to the beach; apply REDKEN Extreme-Rescue Force, REDKEN Real Control-Intensive Renewal, or LABEL. M Intensive Mask. Finger through from roots to ends right before going to the beach, the heat from the sun helps open the cuticle (the outer layer of the hair) so the product can enter the cortex (the second layer) of the hair. This is beneficial because it penetrates deeper into the hair shaft for the best results. Sun = Betsy (our beloved hair dryer). Take a dip in the lake after ten minutes of sitting in the sun to rinse off the product.

REDKEN Extreme-Rescue Force: Good for chemically treated blonde hair. Infuses proteins into hair shaft for internal strength, cuticle reinforcement, and protective resurfacing
REDKEN Real Control-Intensive Renewal: Good for dense, dry, brittle, and sensitized hair. Delivers smoothing control, discipline, and internal strength.
LABEL. M Intensive Mask: Good for chemically damaged hair. Restores moisture into the hair, and protects against UV rays and styling tools.

Mod Tip 2: Summer Care

mod — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 04:52:28 +0000

Planning on doing a lot of swimming in the pool this summer? Here’s a tip to keep your hair from turning a not-so-natural shade of green from the chlorine!

Pre-rinse your hair with fresh water before heading in the pool. This will fill the cuticle, stopping the chemicals from being absorbed by the hair, which is drying, damaging, and causes the green tint NO girl needs this summer!

For even greater protection, rinse hair and follow with a moisturizing conditioner and leave it in before you jump in. Following your swim, make sure to rinse hair well, and shampoo and condition as usual. To complete your summer look, let your hair air dry for a tousled, beachy feel, then add a touch of Face Atelier eye shimmer to your lids, and a light kiss of lip gloss, and you are ready for those hot, summer nights!

For more tips and tricks, come on in to the salon. Until next week, enjoy the gorgeous sunshine!

Mod Tip 1: Double Shampoo

mod — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 16:27:40 +0000

To keep you updated and armed with the best hair tips and tricks, we are now going to be posting weekly our new tips!

The very first week’s tip is:

If you find that your hair is getting a bit of a build up of any product that you are using, a great way to get rid of it is to do a double shampoo. Using a loonie sized drop for the first shampoo you may not get many suds (a big indication of product buildup) and use about half the amount for a second shampoo, this time you should have more sudsing. This will help cleanse your hair and give you a fresh start!

Label M Now At Modsalon

mod — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 02:55:45 +0000

As you are well aware, the lovely gals here at Mod just took a trip to London for a Toni & Guy Creative Cutting and Coloring Course. While they were there the girls fell in love with Toni & Guy’s new professional product line: Label M. What’s truly exciting is that we are currently the only salon in Kelowna carrying this amazing product!! Super Moisturizing Shampoos and Conditioners, incredible styling products, and incredible finishing products. Build body, add texture…. Label M is where it’s at!

We will continue to carry select Redken products and use Redken colors, however, we will be gradually phasing out some styling products. If there is a Redken product you are in love with, we will always be able to order it in for you NO problem!

A select few Redken products will be on sale at 15% off, so come on in and check it out!

Toni and Guy Day 2 (Day 5)

mod — Tue, 18 May 2010 19:17:01 +0000

Today was much like yesterdays experience except for a few main points. The Academy seemed so much more homey for us as we trotted into this school saying hellos to the instructors (who were by the way gorgeous!). We also felt a lot more comfortable during the class talking with the staff and getting so much useful advice and insight from these creative directors of the school. We also spent a lot of time learning 2 more colors and 4 more cuts through the morning. In the afternoon we had one to one training with live models again and it was another amazing experience. I connected with a woman who is the North American distribution coordinator for Toni & Guy products called Label M. We will be likely carrying some of these products at Mod Salon soon as we all loved what we were able to acheive with such a little amount of product and effort.

We finished our day with big, tired smiles on our faces and left feeling chock o block full of new information!

One thing more that I wanted to add here is how PATIENT Mr Cory Bates has been on this trip. Not only has he waited and waited and waited outside of many a shop while we invade London and spend a small fortune in ladies attire, but he also waited for us both days that we got out of class way late. Mr Bates, you are a rare breed!
