Introducing The Gray Away Instant Root Cover Up Spray Collection

New look, same great color coverage. 5 Inclusive shades, featuring two new colors: Black & Medium To Light Blonde. 24hr wear. Made with all hair types in mind.

New leadership took over at Everpro Gray Away. The original hair color category disruptor was known for launching the first ever on-demand, temporary root cover spray. With that, the flagship product had outgrown its look and was in desperate need of a redesign; This wasn’t a functional or performance issue, but a perception-based one. It was then decided that the brand would be given a “Glow Up” to reconnect with consumers – unveiling a brighter, bolder, bigger, and altogether . . . completely new aesthetic.


 

WE COVER ROOTS, PERIOD.

Root Coverage is a unique hair concern; it’s a bit underrated yet can dramatically change your appearance and instantly boost self-confidence. Whether you’re looking to hide grays, blend harsh root lines, refresh highlights or fake fuller hair, The NEW Gray Away Root Cover Up Sprays target multiple hair concerns with a one-step color solution.

These cruelty-free, high-performance products deliver flawless color payoff that fully cover roots, period. And don’t worry – for those that have commitment issues, our temporary formulas wash out with regular shampoo. This means no more color troubles or last-minute hair emergencies, but a streamlined routine helping you get ready in seconds. It’s officially time to clear out those bathroom shelves and downsize your beauty stash to the one Root Cover Up that does it all.

  • Inclusive Shade Range: 5 versatile, fool-proof shades made with a wide range of hair colors in mind – meaning you won’t have trouble finding the perfect hue for you.
    Shades Include: Black, Dark Brown, Medium Brown, Light Brown & Medium to Light Blonde.
  • No One’s Gonna Know: These cover up sprays instantly conceal all root woes, leaving you fully covered with a finish that imitates the look of your real hair color (how will they know?). The fast-drying formulas lay down a natural-looking pigment that blends seamlessly into the rest of your hair for 24hour, undetectable wear.
  • Skip The Breakage and Damage: Color treatments and at home hair dyes can compromise overall hair health, leaving the physical structure of your strands (dare we say it) “over-processed”. Give your hair some PTO and prevent future damage with our temporary color sprays; formulated with reflective pigments to keep hair from drying out while maintaining its natural shine.
  • “Touch Ups” That Don’t Require a Touch Up: Lasting an impressive 24 hours – or until your next shampoo, these water-proof & transfer-resistant sprays won’t budge, no matter what’s on the itinerary.
  • We Avoid The Bad Stuff, So You Don’t Have To: Gray Away takes pride in creating high quality, high performing formulas – without the harmful ingredients.
    NO: sulfates, parabens, ammonia, peroxide, and synthetic dyes. Leaping Bunny Certified.

Merle Norman Cosmetics introduces Merle’s Pearls

As you scroll through your social media platforms you inevitably come across those inspirational memes we all love and share: a little boost for someone’s day; a mid-week pick me up; a happy kick off to a new month. In 1931 Merle Norman founded Merle Norman Cosmetics (affiliate friendly in 2022) – a 91 year old legendary brand with generations of customers. And as it turns out, Merle was the OG inspo.

Merle’s Pearls – as they are lovingly referred to – were snippets of inspiration that she shared with her family, friends, and Studio owners. Her newsletters were filled with life lessons and anecdotes – some of which we have shared below. Everyone looked forward to hearing Merle’s words of encouragement.

In a nod to her pearls of wisdom, Merle Norman Cosmetics has introduced Merle’s Pearls – a gorgeous, limited edition pearl collection which delivers a dreamy, translucent satin finish when dusted over any skin tone. The Gift Set includes Italian-made multicolored Powder Pearls in a jewel faceted jar and angled Powder Brush.  A magical swirl of sparkle exactly embodies the essence of Merle Norman.

Merle’s Pearls are available while supplies last in Studios and on the website. SRP is $54.  As Merle said in 1948: “The greatest of all blessings is peace of mind. To achieve this, love is the answer: love of people, love of work, making happiness for others. These things make a full and happy life.”

Merle’s Pearls

1939

Long ago, I discovered that every happy sunrise is a grand time to start to do my best: to love my neighbor and my neighbor’s neighbor, to lend a sympathetic ear to real sorrow, to give a concrete expression to want, to refuse scandal and gossip, to look for and see only the beauty of life. And so, each day has been a vital, palpitating experience, which spreads before me NOW, and the New Year has always taken care of itself day by day. It’s TODAY that we live.

1946

There is only one approach to a successful business enterprise: Sincerity.

1948

Most of us have a goal which we want to reach more than anything in the world. We look up to and envy an individual who has gained that goal, never dreaming that within ourselves are the powers and strength and means of attaining even greater heights. A friend is one who continues to love you in spite of your success.

1948

Moments of solitude are as important to balanced living as a balanced diet.  If you have no time of your own to figure out your problems – you get in a rut. This leads to a narrowed outlook on life, to discouragement, even frustration. Live with your own soul first. That’s the thing that remains with you through eternity – not the bickerings and inconveniences of living. They pass away. Take the time to take  inventory of yourself. That’s what we’re here for.

Fall In Love With ZALA Hair Extensions

Are you always frustrated with your haircut? Tired of searching the drugstore aisles for that magic elixir that will change your limp locks?

With the help of hair extensions, you no longer have to live with dull, lifeless hair. These hair accessories are the best investment you can get for yourself, and will change your relationship with your hair for the better.

If you think hair extensions are just for celebrities and models who regularly attend red carpet events, nothing could be further from the truth. Even ordinary girls like us can easily achieve luscious locks without having to splurge for a blowout or a dye job at a salon.

Still on the fence on hair extensions? Then check out these compelling reasons why hair extensions are a woman’s best friend:

Plenty of volume

Many women have thin and fine hair due to genetics, pregnancy, or hormones. While you don’t have control over these factors, you do have control over what you put into your hair. If you no longer want to torture your hair with a ton of products and a lot of heat styling, you can use hair extensions to add volume.

ZALA tape hair extensions are the best for thin hair because they lay flat against your head and won’t drag your hair down. All you need to do is add a few strategically placed extensions here and there to get big, voluminous hair.

Instant gratification

Have a wedding, first date, or job interview where you need to pull out all the stops? Hair  extensions are here to save the day. You no longer have to wait for weeks or months to grow your hair, and you’ll get beautiful results right away.

Natural appearance

By choosing the right shade and length, you’ll get natural-looking results, and people won’t be able to tell the difference! Just make sure to buy 100% human Remy hair and to install them correctly to create a seamless blend between the extensions and your natural hair.

Freedom to experiment

With ZALA clip-in hair extensions, you aren’t confined to just one look. Feel free to experiment with different colors, styles, and textures. You can become a wavy blonde one day, then go for a sleek brunette look using clip-in ponytail extensions the next day. You can switch things up and try the ombre trend, or add in those highlights/lowlights without worrying you’ll damage your hair. Wearing extensions gives you the freedom to explore without venturing into harsh chemicals and aggressive heat styling tools.

Ease of use

There’s a bit of a learning curve if you’re using extensions for the first time. But once you get the hang of it, you can put them on and style your hair in just a matter of minutes. You probably won’t even have to use the entire set of extensions. A couple of wefts should be enough to achieve the hair transformation you’ve been dreaming about.

Instead of spending a lot of time styling your hair, you can sleep in for a bit longer or go for a coffee run before officially starting your day. These extensions are also easy to remove from the hair, too.

Low maintenance

Tired of styling your hair everyday? Then keratin hair extensions are the ideal solution. Add glamor to your everyday look without going through a lot of products, time, and effort. You can wear the extensions on their own and give your real hair a break from heat styling.

It’s also easy to maintain your extensions. Just give them a brush and a wash regularly, use sulfate-free hair products, and store them properly. Doing these steps will ensure that the extensions will last for a longer period of time and will remain natural-looking even after frequent use.

Watch – How to Wash Clip In Hair Extensions

Fix botched haircuts

It happens to the best of us: getting excited for a new haircut and then seeing totally different results from what you had in mind. Instead of hiding your hair inside a cap or a scarf for an interminable amount of time, you can easily fix the problem with halo hair extensions. The extensions won’t affect hair growth, so you can use them while waiting for your real hair to return to its previous length.

Confidence booster

Looking your best (and having a great hair day) can give your confidence a much-needed boost. Hair extensions can give you the pep you need to nail that interview, ask a guy out, or stand out during a special occasion.

Have fun in the sun with Sun Patch

Days are getting longer, temperatures are gradually warming up, and we’re looking at bringing out our bright spring wardrobe and swimwear. Don’t forget the sunblock! In fact, a new brand will actually complement your vibrant attire (perfect for those on Spring Break!).

Sun Patch is the only peel-and-stick UPF+ silicone sunblock on the market (UPF measures the amount of radiation that can penetrate fabric to reach your skin). Think of it as an accessory to your sunscreen. The patches feel like a second skin and have a California vibe that’s irresistible. They look like cool neon stickers in bright colors, with neutral options coming soon.

According to the Surgeon General’s office, skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the U.S., with 5 million people treated each year. It’s a concern that can’t be ignored. Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha realize that more than anyone else.

Founder Gena was a mom looking for a solution to applying and reapplying suncare products on her kids, eliminating the fuss and mess. She also wanted protection and anti-aging benefits for herself too. The more she talked with other moms, the more she realized she had the perfect background to launch a sunblock brand. Hence, Sun Patch was born.

Gena spent three years testing the most effective methods for even the most sensitive skin without adding irritants such as zinc oxide for a high degree of efficacy in any environment – from the beach to the ski slopes. She developed patches that are a super convenient way to protect from the sun year-round. Simply peel off the top liner and stick underneath the eye area. Apply sunscreen afterward and you’re all set!

The Truth About What Your Car Says About You as a Fashion Icon

There’s no question that what we drive says a lot about who we are. While some people might prefer to keep their personal and professional lives separate, the two are inextricably linked to others. Your car is an essential part of your brand – it can be seen as a reflection of your fashion sense and overall style. In this blog post, we’ll look at how the type of car you drive can make you a fashion icon.

The Sports Car

The sports car is the ultimate fashion statement. It screams success, power, and wealth. If you’re driving a sports car, you’re probably not too concerned about practicality or fuel-efficiency. Instead, you want people to see you in your car and think, “Wow, that person must be successful.” And let’s be honest, most of us would love to be seen as a success. The sports car is such a popular choice for fashion icons. It’s the ultimate status symbol.

If you’re driving a sports car, you’re also wearing designer clothes and carrying a luxurious handbag. You’re probably not afraid to spend a lot of money on your wardrobe, and you probably have a lot of followers on social media. You’re the type of person who loves to be in the spotlight, and you’re not afraid to show off your wealth.

The Electric Car

The electric car has become a fashion statement and someone conscious about protecting the environment. Celebrities, politicians, and even business people are driving them. There is a certain cache that comes with owning an electric car. They are seen as being more environmentally friendly than gas cars. They also tend to be more expensive, adding to the perception that the owner is successful.

The Minivan

The Minivan is the ultimate in utility and practicality. It’s perfect for soccer moms and dads who need to cart around their kids and gear. But that doesn’t mean it has to be boring or frumpy. Some of the most stylish celebrities are seen driving minivans. Here’s what your Minivan says about you as a fashion icon.

You’re a practical person who values function over form. So you need a car that can accommodate your busy lifestyle and all your stuff. But just because you’re practical doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. On the contrary, a chic minivan says that you know how to look good even when running errands or carting around the kids.

The Convertable

The convertible is the perfect car for those who want to make a statement. It’s flashy, it’s fun, and it turns heads. So if you’re looking to turn heads and get noticed, then the convertible is the car for you. However, be warned that driving a convertible can be a bit of a handful. They’re not the most practical cars, and they can be challenging to drive in traffic. But if you’re up for the challenge, then the convertible is the perfect car for you.

The SUV

The SUV is the perfect car for those who want to be comfortable and stylish at the same time. SUVs are great for families or anyone who wants a little more space. They’re also perfect for road trips and other adventures. Even though they’re larger than most cars, SUVs are still easy to maneuver and park.

You can now find affordable SUVs that are stylish and practical; edmunds is a great place to compare prices and brands. The SUV is a car that shows you’re serious about your style. You’re not afraid to take risks, and you like to be comfortable. You also want a vehicle that can handle anything life throws at you.

We all want to believe that our car is an extension of our personality and that it says something about us as a fashion icon. But, unfortunately, the truth is that your car probably says more about your budget than it does about your style. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still use your car to make a statement.
