"The biggest trick I've learned is to choose a style and color that is compatible with your time, lifestyle and budget. Some hair looks are so incredible, but the reality is that sometimes the time, cost and lifestyle required to maintain is not realistic. To determine what will work for your specific needs, ask your stylist and colorist three key questions: How long will this look take to style daily or weekly? How often will I need to maintained my look in salon? How much can I expect to pay each visit?"

I caught up with Kate Reid of Kevin Murphy to find out where the fall color trends were taking us this year. It is so important as a stylist to keep up to date on the latest and greatest. We do not necessarily need to be making our clients runway ready, but if you can apply what is trendy to every day life for them you are set! Might I suggest always giving your clients little inside tips of the latest trends in hair.  The more you know, the more appeal you will have.
