Tips From Kathryn Voris.
What’s in style now: In a world of anything goes we see trends come and go but what remains consistent is curls verses straight. So for the summer if you like to stick with straight, the trend is geometric shapes not necessarily asymmetric but strong lines that draws the eye and gives us something interesting to look at and we all love that! But for the curl lovers of the world bigger, softer and beachy. The trend is going for refined looks, classic forties but loose and soft. And for the adventurous try mixing curls with straight and you will definitely be fashion forward!

Six Elements of Visual Art including Hair Design.
Line - An identifiable path of a point moving in space. It can vary in width, direction, and length.
Shape - A two-dimensional area or plane that may be organic or inorganic, free-form or geocentric, open or closed, natural or of human origin.
A line defines the inside or outside edge of a shape.
Form - A three-dimensional volume or the illusion of three dimensions; related to shape (which is 2-D).
Space - The emptiness or area between, around, above, below, or contained within objects. Shapes and forms are defined by the space around and within them, just as spaces are
defined by the shapes and forms around and within them.
Value - Light and dark; the gradations of light and dark on the surface of objects
Texture - The surface quality of material, either actual (tactile) or visual
Photography is a primary way
to show our clients current innovations in color, as well as upcoming trends in Design Cutting.
In this way clients will be able to see our work both in print and on this web site.
To that end we update our site with pictures of our own work on a regular basis.
Vidal Sassoon Advanced cutting class
Angie was Perry's Model at the Vidal Sassoon Advanced cutting class
The design change was a squared length with a rounded layer for softness
Sandy's color is a Gray diffusion technique designed to reduce the percentage of gray while adding richness to her style as well as skin tone.
When Perry uses this effect one of the side benefits of it is that it grows out so gently. This technique can last much longer than a typical Global Color.
Step one with all of our colors is to Demineralize the hair, removing unwanted mineral coating from our water when we shampoo our hair.
Then Perry custom selects where each color will go for the desired effect. After coloring, the hair is treated with a molecular protein.
This will protect the hairs integrity adding shine as well as strength to the hair.
Additionally Sandy's Design is updated adding greater styling options and fun to her classic look.
After layering Sandy's hair, Perry texturized her hair with a straight edge razor, resulting in this contemporary update.
This image was taken 3 months after the shoot.
The color is not retouched.
Sandy's next color service was 5 months after the initial color service.
Racheals cut is from Vidal Sassoon. Disconnected pieces add drama to the finished look.
Racheals color is a naturally dark brown which we lightened to a cool dark blonde.
This color while subtle in tone is aggressive in technique and application giving her look a classic finish. Racheals color will grow gently allowing her to repeat this
color in the future or not. To See more changes on Racheal click here Racheal @Kinney Systems
Kinney Systems uses "The Porosity Grading System" as standardized by the American Board of Certified Hair Colorists.
Allowing us to determine what hair can and cannot do chemically at any given point in time.
Once we have restored the hair to it's optimal porosity grade guaranteeing the highest quality results, we will proceed with the desired service.
In this way we are assured of putting a smile on your face.
This is 'The American Board of Certified Hair Colorists' Porosity Grading System"
Grade 1) compact tight cuticle; minimal to no chemical treatment or exposure to excessive sun or mechanical styling tools; very little
resistance to coming when wet.
Grade 2) slightly raised cuticle; mild chemical treatments; some environmental exposure, May be up to 3 stages lighter than natural hair color; good elasticity.
Grade 3) moderately raised cuticle; exposure to chemical treatments, and/or regular use of heat implements.
May be up to 5 stages lighter than natural hair color; resistance to combing
without conditioning treatment; fair elasticity.
Grade 4) excessively raised cuticle; excessive exposure to chemical treatments and heated implements; frizzy appearance when dry.
may be up to 7 stages lighter than natural color. poor elasticity and re tangles when combed wet.
Grade 5) loss of cuticle layer; exposed to chemical treatment to the point of breakage, hair feels mushy or slimy wet.
may be up to 8 or more stages lighter than natural hair color; breads off when wet.
Additionally we use Platinium premium lightner which contains:
- Nutri-céride (TM) to restore and protect the hair fiber
- White Beeswax to smooth and keep the hair soft
- Enveloping Lipids to help maintain the hair's natural lipid level
Lipids form part of the intercellular "cement" that is responsible for maintaining a healthy hair structure. Once the lipid level is reduced,
the hair is more prone to breakage and damage.
The Platinium lightening service maintains the lipid levels, resulting in less damage and
superior condition compared to traditional lighteners.

Why Color Fades• Here are the top three reasons
1)Washing the hair = approx. 45% •
2)Sunlight = approx. 40% •
3)Environment = approx. 15%
How can you make your Color last longer?
Shampooing half as often, perhaps rinsing the hair in between shampooing's will reduce the 45 percent issue considerably.

With Hydro resist technology your hair color will last longer be healthier.
Types of Hair Coloring Products also play a part in longevity of hair color.
There are two main categories of professional hair coloring products
Non oxidation Color,
a) Temporary color
These in fact cover the natural melanin. They cannot make the hair lighter than the original color.
They tend to be quickly washed away from the hair shaft, as they do not chemically alter the keratin.
Their large molecular size makes them too large to pass through or into the cuticle of the hair shaft in most cases.
The exception being higher grades of porosity of the hair. see Porosity Porosity
b) Traditional semi-permanent
These will typically resist a few shampooing's. depending on the quality of the shampoo. ( click here to view Products) Products)
Oxidation Color
a) Semi-permanent also known as demi-permanent
Known also as direct dyes, as they need no developer and yet due to there affinity for keratin, they cover better and last longer.
Using smaller color molecules, more color enters the cortex. Caution must be used as porosity will play a large part in color
selection.
b) Permanent.
As Oxidative colors or Oxidation color contain two components which create a chemical change in the hair, thus effecting the porosity.
All hair color types have their place in creating this art form, however it is our belief that a detailed understanding of each is invaluable
for creating the best results each and every time.
