Marie Robinson Salon
Someone once told me that the difference between a good colorist and a great colorist lies in whether or not they’ll simply refuse to do something that doesn’t suit you, regardless of how badly you want it. Thus, after years of dabbling amongst good colorists, I finally stumbled upon a great one- Marie Robinson of her eponymous salon. Ever since I first started getting my hair colored, I’ve developed this fascination (obsession almost) with achieving perfect light ashy brown locks- a feat that colorist after colorist attempted- only to garner the identical result- great color for a couple weeks followed by months of drab, rusty, brassy mess.

DDF 400x Revolve MicroPolishing System
I’ll admit- before I tried the DDF Revolve 400x Micro-polishing System, I was a tad skeptical- but now a few weeks in, I am a true believer. The at home system promises to deliver microdermabrasion in just 2 minutes a week without the harmful side effects of having crystal blasted at and then sucked off your skin. To be honest, I’ve never been a huge fan of micro-dermabrasion for that very reason- my skin is often left very red and raw after the procedure but I always go back to get it because I do love how clear and glowing my face is during the healing process as fresh skin grows in.
