What’s In Keratin?
Are you curious about keratin, perhaps wondering about the benefits – and ingredients – of this “wonder treatment?” Well, a lot has changed over the years as this hair smoothing process has become more popular…and more refined. Here’s the latest.
Andre Chreky has partnered with the luxury hair care company Trissola to offer reconstructing keratin treatments designed to realign the cuticle. This makes the hair surface smooth and improves hair’s overall health. Imagine… smoother, straighter, manageable, healthy, frizz-free hair for up to 6 months!
Trissola loads its keratin treatment with ingredients that infuse hair with nourishing vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to strengthen, seal the cuticle, and create incredible shine. I love that my keratin treatments significantly reduce my at-home drying and styling time.
What’s in it?
- Coconut oil, a natural nutrient of the hair, provides essential proteins to nourish damaged hair
- Complex blend of fatty acids, enhances and provides moisture retention, improving hair’s overall health.
- Pro-vitamin B-5 seals the cuticle, adding abundant hydration and shine to the hair.
What’s in it for you?
True + True Plus reconstructing keratin treatments will transform your hair from dull and frizzy to smooth, shiny, and manageable, in just 90 minutes.
- Wash and style the same day: no restrictions
- Round brushing not required

Meet Me in Morocco
When it comes to exotic getaways, our wings may be temporarily clipped. But you can still wrap yourself in a subtle cloak of mystery and romance with a spritz of Brumes du Maroc. The first-ever fragrance from Moroccanoil, Brumes du Maroc captures the brand’s cult-inducing signature fragrance – a spicy blend of amber and sweet floral notes.
The lightweight formula isn’t just your typical spritz-and-run fragrance. It includes antioxidant-rich argan oil and Vitamin E to nourish and hydrate. It also offers UV absorbers to help protect and preserve your hair. Better yet, it’s sulfate and paraben-free.
Use Brumes du Maroc throughout the day on your hair, skin, and clothing – I even use it on my face mask! It transports me to the Mediterranean with every breath I take…
Brumes du Maroc is available for $32 (3.4 oz) in the retail section of our salon. Save 10% throughout October when you purchase a bottle!

Suited for Change: a Place of Hope
We could all use a Place of Hope these days, as we rethink and retool the way we live, love, work, and play while Covid lingers with us. You can help create that space for a woman looking to jumpstart her work life.
I stumbled across Suited for Change after conducting a deep closet cleanse: I had so much office attire that was beautiful and still wearable! A friend recommended that I call this visionary organization that helps women reentering the workforce and in need of assistance with wardrobe, coaching, and skills training.
Each client has a personalized styling session with a Suited for Change stylist, receiving two full outfits complete with high-quality accessories. Once a client has been hired, she returns to Suited for Change and receives three more outfits from the organization’s boutique. Suited for Change prides itself on not only giving clients a new work wardrobe but also a new-found confidence to carry with them into their new job.
I recently met with Executive Director Liz Reinert at the Suited for Change headquarters, just a block from the salon at 1023 15th Street, NW. Her energy and passion for empowering women is inspiring! The organization desperately needs financial donations as well as clothing for women embarking upon a job search. Suited for Change services are offered free of charge.
As DC continues to reopen and offices start to rehire employees, now is the perfect time to make a 2021 contribution!

Is that Popcorn I Smell?
What do I love most about autumn? Cashmere sweaters. Cozy blankets. Hot cider. The first fire in my fireplace. And the new lineup of binge-worthy television that I can stream with said sweater, blanket, fire, and beverage. Here’s what’s in my que. Pass the Jiffy Pop!
Only Murders in the Building (Hulu): Steve Martin and Martin Short team up in this highly anticipated new series. The comedians join Selena Gomez as unlikely neighbors in a historic Upper West Side apartment building…where a murder takes place. Their shared obsession with true crime podcasts leads the trio to attempt solving the case themselves. Hilarity ensues! Ten episodes total with the finale airing on October 19th.
The Great British Baking Show (Netflix): Follow a group of amateur bakers as they compete in a series of kitchen challenges, attempting to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with their baking skills. May the best pastry win!
Modern Love, Season 2 (Amazon Prime): I’m so excited that one of my favorites from last year is back! Featuring Minnie Driver, Kit Harrington, Lucy Boynton, and Anna Paquin, this new season brings to life eight stories based on essays from the Sunday New York Times.
The Chair (Netflix): If you ask me, Sandra Oh can do no wrong. I love her as the lead character in this series! The Chair follows the first woman of color to be selected to head the English Department at an elite college. Best of all, you can binge watch this series in a weekend.
The Next Thing You Eat (Hulu): A six-episode docuseries from chef David Chang, founder of the Momofuku restaurant chain, and Academy Award–winning documentary filmmaker Morgan Neville. The series explores the changes happening all around us and how they affect not only the restaurant world but people’s fundamental relationship to food. Discover how food is grown, who cooks it, how we pay for it, and whether deliciousness will fall by the wayside. Premieres October 21.

A Mask You Won’t Mind Wearing
Yeah, yeah, yeah…we are all weary of wearing masks. But I’ve discovered one mask that all my friends are clamoring to wear, and I bet you will be, too! Guinot’s new Lift Summum Mask is a welcome alternative to a facelift and the visible results are instantaneous.
The Lift Summum Mask uses Guinot’s key ingredients to help restore density to the skin for a smooth complexion. Infused with sorghum extract, which firms and lifts your skin, and longevitne (a rare Alaria Esculenta seaweed extract) the masque helps reestablish your youthful appearance. Finally, Sea Buckthorn, improves the elasticity of the skin by renewing density and firmness.
Use in the morning, to give skin a firmer appearance or in the evening, to minimize signs of fatigue that have appeared over the course of the day. Apply the mask in a thick layer, avoiding your eye contours. Wait 10 minutes then remove the mask with a wet cotton pad and rinse. Prepare to be amazed!
