Stuck in a beauty rut? Break out of the box with resolutions and solutions from Seattle’s top industry experts.
Play with Color
“I am going to try at least one new nail trend each season. First up: being more adventurous with color. I plan on having a trusted girlfriend pick a color for me and wearing it no matter what.”
-Jane Park, owner, Julep Nail Parlor
Deep Condition Weekly
“Over the weekend, I’ll take 30 minutes to let a mask soak nutrients into my hair. Extra credit for sitting in a steam room or sauna with the mask on, so the heat can allow the product to penetrate deeper.”
-Rosaline Hampton, celebrity hairstylist
Undo Holiday Habits
“The holidays come with foods and drinks that we indulge in. A series of detox treatments is the perfect way to eliminate toxins and recharge the body.”
-Vivian Weber, spa operations manager, Spaahh at Hotel 1000
Stick to Your Routine
“I will be consistent with my cleansing routine every morning and evening, even if I’m tired, because I know I feel better when my skin looks good.”
-Jill Bucy, owner, Jill Bucy Skincare
Multitask to Save Time
“I’ll keep my lashes and nails looking their best by dedicating one hour every two weeks to getting extensions touched up while receiving a manicure and pedicure at the same time.”
-Tova Edwards, owner, Wink Lash Extensions
Lather, Rinse, Repeat (Every Few Days)
“My New Year’s resolution is to wash my hair only twice a week to prevent it from drying out. On my off days, I use Kevin Murphy’s dry shampoo to get through until the next rinse. ”
-Natalie Angelillo, co-owner, Swink Style Bar
Put Down the Tweezers Once and for All
“I am growing in my brows, because thick ones are so youthful looking — not to mention on trend right now. But I’ll make sure I still get them waxed regularly, so they stay looking neat.”
-Karen Jahn, owner, The Wax Bar
