Whether you’re a blonde, a brunette, or somewhere in between, taking your hair color to the next level can help you achieve a gorgeous new look for fall. At hair school, you will learn how to give your clients hair colors they will love. Here’s your guide to gorgeous hair colors for fall 2012:
Ombre Retains Its Hold
The ombre look is characterized by dark tones on top that naturally blend into lighter colors as your eye moves towards the ends. Although this look has been a hot trend in past years, it is making a strong comeback this fall. The look works best on longer hair, but you can discuss variations for clients whose hair is on the shorter side.
Attention-Grabbing Colors Make a Debut
For clients who want to maintain their base tone but spice things up a little, introduce them to a multicolored look. Many fashion designers gave models looks combining greens, yellows, reds, and purples to make a bold statement for fall. These colors can be woven in and customized to give each client the right look.
Women Embrace a Darker Look
For many women, fall and winter are the seasons when they darken their color to mimic the natural progression from sunny days into cooler ones. Darkening hair changes the look of the skin and amplifies eye color on fairer women. Discuss the practicalities of this look with your client, and remind blondes that darker colors can gradually fade.
Changing your look for the season is a fun and fresh way to add some excitement to your hair. At New England Hair Academy in the Boston area, our students learn the importance of making each desired trend work for their clients’ hair.

A hand massage is part of what makes a manicure both relaxing and enjoyable. After you’ve finished grooming and cleaning a client’s cuticles, you should give you client a hand massage.
Watch this video to learn the proper techniques of giving a hand massage. Once the client is comfortable, use the body butter to gently massage the hand and increase circulation. Moving blood around in the hand area will feed the root of the nail and allow the nail to grow better. The final result is soft, moisturized, and attractive hands.
The manicuring program at New England Hair Academy in the Boston area prepares aspiring manicurists to perform the highest quality hand massages. To find out more about what you can learn in our programs, call us today at (781) 324-6799.

Enrolling in cosmetology school requires a commitment of dedication and time, as well as an understanding that success is bred from hard work. At New England Hair Academy, we offer a supportive and encouraging environment to our beauty school students. Here are our tips for our students on how to manage a busy life while attending cosmetology school:
1. Invest in a Good Day Planner
Writing down course schedules as well as important dates is the best way to keep track of the time. If you are informed of a date months in advance, just quickly jot it down so you can use it for reference later.
2. Reduce Work Hours to Part-Time
If you currently have a job and plan on maintaining it while in school, consider reducing your work hours. This will reduce your stress and allow you to efficiently complete tasks at both school and work. It’s not impossible to work while you study, but it will force you to manage time differently.
3. Take Courses That Fit with Your Schedule
If for any reason your schedule simply can’t accommodate daytime courses, consider enrolling in our night classes. This is a convenient option for our students who are also parents.
4. Set Aside Personal Time
Never underestimate the benefits that just a few hours of personal time can bring to your week. Pick one day each week when you can participate in an activity you enjoy alone or with friends and family. This time will allow you to collect your thoughts, relax, and enrich your mental health.
These are just a few great suggestions for how to manage your time while attending cosmetology school. Speak to your fellow New England Hair Academy students and instructors for even more tips. Learn more about all of our programs in the Boston area by giving us a call today at (781) 324-6799.
