4J The Look of Love

2009-07-01T11:10:00.017-05:00

4J aka 4th of July will be filled with smiles and cries at celebrations and events all around America. The day itself brings memories from time past and sparks imagination for the next generation of movers and shakers, the bold and the beautiful. With only 180 days left to face until the end of the year, I wish for each and every one of our followers a wonderful life filled with true beauty - inside and outside.

Looking at the calendar and what this time of the year represents, it reminds me of America's beginning, when the first glimpses of the United States for millions was that mighty woman that welcomes visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans– Mother of Exiles, aka The Statue of Liberty holds inside, an inscription that defines a timeless beauty. It speaks of her mild eyes, and her silent lips. I call it The look of love

I'm taken back to the relationships and new friends we make everyday here at Troy Richard Salon. We welcome anyone who wants something new, something better, and those who have a passion for strong creativity as bold as the Statue of Liberty which stands ever strong today. Troy Richard Salon is where lives are also transformed by our elite group of hair designers, stylist, Redken Color Professionals, makeup artists, and nail techs. We have all seen with our own eyes, how ordinary looks turn into extraordinary by design. In 1886 – The people of France offered the Statue of Liberty to the people of the United States to represent friendship, today we offer you Troy Richard Salon.

The first glimpses of you or anyone will be the look you love - a look that is chic, sexy, celebrity, trendy, strong, healthy, bold or beautiful. Visit troyrichardsalon.com to see transformations in our Gallery. See how short hair goes long with Great Lengths Human Hair Extensions or see the amazing Brazilian Blowout straighten curly and normally unruly or damaged hair right in front of your eyes. We show you the before and after pictures, plus more.

If you are feeling unsure or just don't know what to do, but know you have to do something, call Troy Richard Salon to ask any questions you have or send email to begin your new-way of living. Call us at 214-618-8071 to wash away your yearning for the look you wannahave, a look independently You.

How to keep youthful and acne free skin

2009-05-19T07:45:00.012-05:00

CHANGE YOUR PILLOWCASE EVERY NIGHT

I have sworn by this for years and it works!

Think about it - do you really want your skin to meet with old and dirty skin cell particles, skin and hair care products that rub off on your pillowcase, oil and bacteria that accumulate every single night for roughly eight hours? No! Changing your pillow case can change your skin.

Keep your skin happier and cleaner with this simple chore.
You will sleep better too! After a wash your sheets and pillow case are much cleaner, fluffier and you will look forward to wrapping yourself up in them. This will decrease the stress you have over keeping your skin clean. You can also eliminate acne when you keep your sleeping environment as clean as possible. Most of us go out into the polluted world every day. Our skin is met with dirt, oil and lots of other harmful toxins that are living outside in our polluted cities.
Don't add to the assault on your skin by making the place you sleep another bacteria and toxin attack.

Wash your face.
To keep yourself looking youthful and acne free change your pillow case (and wash the old ones in hot water) every day. Be sure to wash your face with a simple soap that will not irritate your skin, morning and night. Try this beauty secret and share it with everyone you know.

Remember to keep your skin living in a clean environment. - Debe, Glam Patrol

Hair Care & The Winter Doo's

2008-11-12T21:02:00.032-06:00

It's that time of year when more of you glam girls top-off your unique doo's with hats and scarves – in-tune with the winter fashion trends. You know what that means! A lot of dryness and flatness on top. So you need to turn-up the volume and apply the best products to hold your hair style together, longer.

Keeping healthy hair starts with the best products!
It's important that you remember that your hair is directly related to the health of your scalp, it's so important to use the best products that won't destroy your hair's natural oils that are needed for your hair to remain radiant, healthy and shiny. Troy Richard Salon is a REDKEN Certified Salon. This means your hair always receives the best products known around the world.

6 Hair Care Tips for Winter Hair Care

1. Dry-Scalp Revenge
Itchiness and irritation are common during the winter and notorious for dryness. So, wash your hair a little less often and choose a sensitive scalp shampoo - which is normally creamier. Also try to avoid those products that are formulas for dandruff-prone scalps. Remember dandruff is caused by an oily-scalp, rather than a dry—scalp.

• Dandruff Control
Powerful dandruff-fighting formulas with pyrithione zinc, a highly effective anti-dandruff ingredient, help reduce flaking, irritation and itching. Leaves scalp hydrated, clarified and relieved and hair shiny, light and airy.

2. Don't Frizz-out
Prevent frizz that your winter hat can cause, and keep your soft and silky hair by using a leave-in conditioner or day cream. If your hair is already flattened, add body and bounce by misting a brush with a hairspray that has a light-hold, then gently comb through your hair.

• Smooth Down
Smoothness for very dry, unruly hair. Hair is up to four times smoother*. Get ultra-smooth, shiny hair that's in control. New Smooth Down is specially formulated to enrich and tame extremely dry, coarse, unruly hair. Redken's exclusive Interbond Conditioning System delivers a unique Ionic Smoothing Complex of macadamia oil, candelilla wax and cationic refiners to help replenish oils, provide intense smoothing and a long-lasting, humidity-resistant, frizz-free finish.

3. Keeping It Moist
Have fun at home, pour on your deep conditioner at least once a week. Then seal in the moisture for the whole day with your leave-in conditioner.

• Clear Moisture
Lightweight moisture for normal to dry hair. Infuse normal to dry hair with weightless moisture. Redken's exclusive Interbond Conditioning System, combined with a unique, ultra-light Micro-Moisture Complex, helps restore, rebalance and retain optimum moisture without adding weight. Hair is replenished, light and shiny.

4. Color Police
Coloring your hair can sometimes make it weaker and can cause a little breakage, that's why it's very important that you deep-condition your hair, and lock in the moisture.

• Color Extend
Protection for color treated hair. Extend the life of color-treated hair by fighting the four causes of color change. New advanced Color Extend offers maximum color security. Environmental aggressors, poor cuticle condition, color-altering minerals and water can attack haircolor, causing it to fade and dull. Through Redken's exclusive Interbond Conditioning System and a powerful 360 degree Protective Complex, Color Extend helps shield, stabilize and secure color intensity. It's full spectrum protection that keeps color-treated hair smooth, manageable and radiant.

5. Celebrity Styling
If you're heat-styling your hair pretty often, make sure you're protect your hair with a gel or salve; this will ensure that any heat burns away the product, and not your expensive hair color.

Hairwear for style innovators

6. Shampoo & Conditioning
Take careful thought to the brand of your shampoo and conditioner; if you're not sure what to do, call your stylist and ask what's the best shampoo and conditioner for your your hair type and color to prevent fading and brassiness.

• Body Full
Volume for normal to fine hair. Boost volume and defy gravity with Body Full, the first style-infused haircare* collection. Redken's exclusive Interbond Conditioning System delivers styling polymers that combine with carbohydrates and protein to form the new Anti-Gravity Complex. This unique technology provides normal/fine hair with bodifying strength and density plus style retention. Hair is full of volume, long-lasting style and shine.

Brazilian Blowout - Hair Straighteners

2008-09-08T23:33:00.035-05:00

WHAT'S A BRAZILIAN BLOWOUT?

Before I answer that question, let it be understood that the Brazilian Blowout is for girls with unruly curls. If this is you, Rejoice! Troy Richard Salon offers you a new straightening system from Brazil. The Brazilian Blowout arrived in stateside salons first, and now it's here in Frisco, Texas - ready to tame even the worst-behaved manes.

Now you should understand that the Brazilian Blowout is a professional in-salon treatment now available at the Troy Richard Salon, as I just mentioned, but also know the Troy Richard Salon is 100% certified too. This is so important, if you want to leave the salon looking good. Certification is designed to teach stylists the techniques behind this highly sought-after treatment, and allow the stylist to perfect execution of this treatment. Stylist learn how to place orders for products needed for this in salon treatment as well as representing the after care product line.

100% Certification (in a nutshell) means that our stylist can analyze your hair, perform the treatment, customize after care maintenance for you and create the best hair condition you will ever have.

The Brazilian Blowout takes about 2 hours. So you can get in, and get on with your day, loving your look. You'll start with a deep cleansing shampoo that creates the right surface for best absorption of the chemical, this is followed by a thorough blow dry and flat iron. Next, it's back to the shampoo bowl for a final rinse and back to the hair station for a final blowout.

Because this is a cumulative process and unlike any other relaxer, the Brazilian Blowout actually improves your hair condition by creating a protein protective layer around the hair shaft resulting in a smooth surface able to reflect light. Did someone say "Shimmer?"

The Brazilian Blowout is a revolutionary treatment beneficial and suitable for all hair types, especially for damaged and chemically processed hair because it enhances the absorption of the Brazilian Blowout solution. Visit our website (www.troyrichardsalon.com) to view more before and after hair transformations.

You'll be the hit of the town when you leave the salon with shiny, straight hair with no downtime, with ready to wear hair. This procedure does not require commitment, regrowth application and will last for as long as 2 months.

Who's really behind the glitz and the glam of the Miss Texas pageant?

2008-08-18T00:30:00.037-05:00

Thanks to
The Dallas Morning News...

It's all caught on video at dallasnews.com
Watch Video

Three years later, The Dallas Morning News catches Troy Richard O'Neil in the act. Doing what? He's been adding glitz and glam to the Miss Texas Pageant for 3 years. Now it can't be denied. The secret is out. Now the whole world knows how 6 very lucky contestants prepared for the judges. Yep, it's the Troy Richard Salon.

Last year, Troy got to go to Miss Texas, then on to Miss America with a former contestant, Shilah Phillips who won Miss Texas, then on to Las Vegas to do her hair and make-up for the Miss America Pageant.

Shilah Philips
(1st African-American to hold Miss Texas Title) was named first runner-up in January 2007 - No wonder the Dallas Morning News caught on! And with over 15 years of experience, it's really a no-brainer.

About half of the contestants have hairstylists working out of their hotel rooms the week of the pageant. Some Miss Texas hopefuls receive free hair styling and beauty counseling throughout their reigning year. Many get discounts from local salons. Others hire hairstylists to train them. And then there are those who – gasp – do their own hair... OMG!

Troy says "it's not just about winning the title of Miss Texas,it's about becoming who they are going to be; being the best people they can be; the best young women they can be. And it's going to help them in their career; it's going to help them with interviewing for positions that they are trying to get within a company."

Troy Richard Salon owner Troy Richard O'Neil styled contestants in the Miss Texas pageant for Brittany Forrester - Miss North Texas, Lea Ciskowski - Miss Teen Frisco, and Brooks Dennard - Miss Frisco.

Behind the glitz and glam of the pageant lies a small army of trusted confidants and fashion gurus – the hairstylists. From coloring to curling to extensions, stylists often dedicate an entire week to primping and prepping.

Stylists arrive fully loaded with curling irons, mousses, shine serums, gels and, above all, hairspray. Lots of hairspray.

The hairstylists put in a lot of work leading up to Miss Texas, especially because nearly all the girls have their hair cut and colored. Troy dyed Ms. Dennard's hair three shades of red before the competition. The first was too bright. The second was too dark. The third was just right.

Relationships between hairstylists and pageant contestants are more than skin, or scalp, deep.

Troy and his roommate, Ricardo Tomas - The Wedding Architect, who sits on the Miss Plano Frisco Scholarship Organization's board, invite the regional winners to stay in their house to prepare for the Miss Texas pageant. Ms. Dennard lived there for a month. "It was almost like Camp Miss Texas," she says. Not only does Mr. O'Neil help her train and stay focused, they also watch the reality TV series So You Think You Can Dance together every week.

Perfect Tan Every Time.

2008-05-13T11:33:00.015-05:00

It's summer time and you know what that means; it's time to kick your tan into high gear. And, to make sure you have the perfect tan this summer; there is a better tanning solution that is botanical, safe, and has an incredible color. It's called Bronze Biologic, the first company to introduce a cosmeceutical spray on tanning solution. A premiere tanning solution formulated with beet and cane sugar extracts that DO NOT contain any toxic chemicals, dyes, perfumes, alcohol, oils, or artificial colors. Amazed? If not, sit back an let me tell you about BioLogic.

First, all Bronze Biologic tanning solutions are MADE RIGHT HERE IN THE USA. Some spray on tan companies have attempted to come to the US from other countries such as Australia and the UK with limited results and can never offer quality like Bronze Biologic.

Secondly, Bronze Biologic solutions have the proper ph and contain only natural occurring preservatives, for stability and shelf life, which is an important factor that many companies overlook and may be the reason why many of them turn orange, green, or some other un-natural looking color.

Now remember, Bronze Biologic is NOT your ordinary airbrush system and can be applied in just a few minutes. The HVLP delivery system at Troy Richard Salon will prevent over-spray, streaking, discoloration, and lost profits. Our system delivers a perfect tan every time.

Watch this video to see how Bronze Biologic applied:

So, now you know how Bronze Biologic works, but who's using airbrush tanning? Well, you wouldn't think anyone living next to the beach would need such a fantastic tanning solution like Bronze Biologic, right?! Well they do and it's THE ORLANDO MAGIC & MIAMI HEAT DANCERS who proudly wear Bronze Biologic for a natural looking tan.

Finally, you should also know that all Bronze Biologic tanning solutions are bottled under GMP guidelines and safety sealed for superior stability and freshness, which is the same stringent process used to manufacture nutritional supplements. Due to the quality, purity, and freshness of these ingredients, Bronze Biologic will give you a beautiful, golden bronze tan that will last for days. Our proprietary formulas are completely safe and are not only the best sunless tanning solutions in the world, but also the most natural.

Bronze Biologic is the first company to introduce a cosmeceutical grade natural spray on tanning solution. Bronze Biologic is continually raising the bar in the industry and committed to providing the finest products and services in the world today.
