Haircut and Nail Art at the Juice Salon

Haircut and Nail Art at the Juice Salon

Hey everyone,

If you follow me on Instagram, you must have seen my pic getting a haircut at Juice :p (shamelessly promoting my Insta..please follow :D)

So, I went to the Juice Salon in my area (Juice has 8 salons in Mumbai)..for getting a haircut..and then got the nail art done too..

Its a nice spacious salon..has two three rooms and one with a shower for the spas.

I was assisted by Rohit for my haircut..and since my hair was already pampered at Jean Claude Biguine (read HERE), it was super smooth and looking great..I did not wish to get a cut :p But a cut was long due..as the ends had grown out..

I wanted layers as they always have been that way and wanted to maintain my length..so he kept my length and gave me short layers at the crown so that I can get that volume and bounce..and side swept bangs..which I can partition either ways..

I loved the cut..he used TIGI Epic Volume Shampoo (which is SLS free and was quite nice..recommend this) to wash hair first..and he told me a good volumising shampoo is enough for my hair coz they are good texture wise 😀

And also a heat protectant serum was used at the start itself..and after the cut, he showed me the hair with cold blast blow drying before styling too..and it looked great without the styling maintenance too.

They use all TIGI products mostly at Juice..



Here is my before and after haircut..

And then there is this nail bar..does’nt it look amazing..with so many colors around..

I had to select a design from these options for the nail art..

And I chose this glitter one…I wanted something simple and quick..she used three nail paints for this..2 Jordana Glitters and one Love..First silver glitter was applied all over..then the love one with very find golden shimmer on the front half and then the Jordana orange gold glitter again on the front half layered, followed with a top coat.

I loved the final effect..and its been 6 days and its still almost intact..and she said if maintained it can stay 10-12 days..they also had gel nail option..

Post Holi Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at JCB

Post Holi Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon
So I did play Holi and my hair was definitely affected even though I had oiled it..and even though I had played only with colors..those colors are pretty drying dude..
 
And I had to wash my hair thrice to remove the color..that made the hair all the more drying..as the essential oils on the scalp which moisturise the scalp are also lost with frequent washing..
 
I definitely needed some hair pampering..and got to try this hair ritual at the perfect time..

Jean-Claude Biguine had post Holi Biguine Kérastase Hair Rituals..its like a detox for the hair..here is the official press release:

Indulge in the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon and Spa

Hair can turn brittle and extremely dry if color remains in it for a long time. The Kérastase hair treatments provide shine; they moisturize and condition the hair, and help in repairing all types of hair damages. The Kérastase Chronologiste Caviar Ritual uses mimetic caviar pearls and special creams to nourish hair and make it feel softer, stronger and more lustrous.

So I went for this hair ritual..you must have seen my pic on Instagram, if you follow me. I was assisted by Zara.

And after checking my hair, she suggested the Kérastase Chronologiste Caviar Ritual for me..as my hair was slightly dry. I also asked her the difference in three and which is meant for which type of hair, and she explained well. 

Chronologiste Caviar Ritual is meant for normal to dry hair
Ultime Liquide-Gold Hair Ritual is meant for all types of hair
And there is one more..Signature Kerathermine which is meant for extremely dry hair

She explained the whole process in Chronologiste Caviar Ritual and how its not real caviar..since real caviar is super expensive and they cannot use it world wide as vegetarians and vegans would have an issue with it..so its basically artificial caviar..made up with vitamins, etc that are beneficial and hydrating for the hair..

Durations: 1.5 hrs

Price: Rs. 1500/- for Ultime Liquide-Gold Oil and Rs.2500/- for Chronologiste Caviar and Signature Kerathermine

Procedure followed:

1. My hair was checked first and after suggesting the Chronologiste Caviar Ritual, we started off with it..

2. Hair was shampooed twice with Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Shampoo..and towel dried.

3. The caviar was crushed and mixed well with the creme and applied all over the hair in sections..each strand at a time.
Artificial Caviar
Caviar and Creme
Mixed together
4. Then head and neck was massaged..and I was like sleeping on the chair..it was so super relaxing…Zara has magic in her hands !

5. Hair was given a mist (indirect steam) for 10 mins.

6. Washed hair again with plain water.

7. Kérastase Elixir Ultime Serum was used generously and hair was dried giving a cold blast and once normal blow dry. (no styling)

And this is the before and after..

I am telling you this pic does not do any justice to how my hair felt..they were so super soft and smooth..I just could not stop touching my hair !

I had to go for a hair cut the next day..and since it was blow dried and styled I could not wash and judge the difference later on..I will update this post as to how long the effect lasts and till when the hair feels and looks the same :p

But from what Zara told me, if hair is taken care of with proper serums and conditioning, the effect lasts a month..and this can be done monthly..or else if very dry hair, twice a month.

At JCB, they use mostly Kérastase and L’oreal Professional..and a few Moroccanoil products..

I highly recommend trying out the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon..if your hair is normal kinds, the Ultime Liquide-Gold one would do..but its definitely to be experienced..you will love your hair ! 

I think its a perfect addition to must-do’s before the wedding for the brides !
