The Olaplex family has grown! Two new take-home products have evolved and are essentials for anyone who undergoes chemical hair services.
If you’ve never used Olaplex before it is a product that works on a molecular level to seek out broken bonds in the hair that are caused by chemical, thermal, and mechanical damage. You can use Olaplex to restore compromised hair, or add it to another service to provide the ultimate breakage insurance. If you haven’t asked your stylist about using Olaplex during your chemical service in the salon it’s something we highly recommend. The services offered in the salon rebuild broken disulfide bonds, preventing damage and repairing hair while rebuilding and restoring any remaining broken bonds ensuring the strongest, shiniest, and healthiest hair possible. The take-home products are extra essentials that work together to improve hair health, texture, and strength!
No. 3 is a product you can use weekly to further restore your hair’s broken bonds. This product heals your hair from the inside out, repairing damage, but also preventing more damage from happening in future chemical services which will provide you with an even better result!
No 4. and No. 5 are the BRAND NEW Shampoo and Conditioners created by Olaplex. The shampoo, No. 4, will repair bonds while gently cleansing all types of hair. No. 4 will impart moisture, strength, and manageability with every wash. No. 5, the conditioner, restores, repairs, and hydrates without adding excess weight. It will eliminate damaged frizzy strands and turn them into strong, healthy, shiny strands! Sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it! Well good news – it is true, and these products are all available for purchase now! Contact your Hairstyle Inn location for more details and be sure to ask about adding Olaplex to your in-salon service for amazing results!
Wondering what direction to take your hair into the coming 2017 Fall/Winter season? We’ve done our research and compiled a taste of what’s hot and trendy this season. Take a look below at what’s HOT and sure to make statement this season!
Triangular Shaped Styles
Curly gurls – keep your layers LONG to emphasize the ends to make your hair look fuller. Another thing you might like to try with your curly locks is emphasizing your curly bang! The world may have been telling you bangs aren’t for your hair texture, but the time to change that is now – Embrace it! Paired with the perfect smoothing oil or soft curl enhancing product to make your curls look smooth and sleek, your time to bang is this season!
Face-Framing Tendrils
Yup – the 90s are coming back and better than ever. Pull your hair back into a messy bun and keep those side-swept tendrils soft surrounding your face for a chic, fun, and youthful look.
Embrace the Buzz!
Go big, or go home. It might seem extreme, but it might also be exactly what your hair needs after all the chemical bleaching that happened throughout the summer. Feel liberated and strong with this maintenance free style that screams “bad-ass!”
Blunt Bang – Blunt Bob!
Make a statement with hard lines by the jaw and above or right in line with the eyebrows! We love a high bang, but also love Kerry Washington’s and how it just sweeps her brow.
Modern Shag
Textured layers and piece-y bangs are pure rock and roll and perfect for fall! The fringe will give you some extra warmth for the cold weather approaching – and it’s still perfect to tie up for those gym sessions!

Shelley James, operating partner of Hairstyle Inn Salons, was honored on Wednesday, May 31, when she received the Community Builder Award at the Saskatoon YWCA Women of Distinction Awards®. The Annual YWCA Women of Distinction Awards® are a celebration of the best in women’s achievements, across industry, culture and public service, honouring ordinary women for their extraordinary contributions to the Saskatoon community.
Shelley has been involved in theatre, film, and TV for over 20 years, designing hair and wigs for Persephone Theatre, the U of S, Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan, Global TV, and numerous Broadway shows at TCU Place. One of her biggest and proudest accomplishments, however, is her charity TLC@Home. Founded 11 years ago, TLC@Home’s mission is to provide children from inner-city neighborhoods in our own community with Christmas cheer. Last year, TLC@Home reached 996 school children in core neighbourhoods with a personal gift box of necessities and treasures to share the joy of Christmas.
It has been an exciting year for Shelley and her endeavors with TLC@Home. Shelley, on behalf of Hairstyle Inn Salons team, received the John Steinberg Award naming HairStyle Salons Canadian Community Service Salon of the year at the Contessa Awards in Toronto. The Canadian Hairstylist of the Year Awards – the Contessas – are the gold standard in Canadian beauty industry awards with the longest-running track record of excellence. Since 1988, each year the Contessas bring the best of Canada’s talent together to measure their creativity in a photo-based competition. The John Steinberg Award is about using your salon and business exposure to become involved in a charity event that holds a special place in your heart. It was a touching moment for Shelley and the team to be recognized on a national scale for the work she does in her local community. Furthermore, Shelley and the HairStyle Inn Salons team were a proud nominee at this year’s North Saskatoon Business Association’s Business Builder Awards. Shelley and her TLC@Home partners, Cameco, Global Saskatoon, CruzFM and TrustedSaskatoon.com were surrounded in a category of inspiring, influential and motivating individuals. It is an honor all in itself just to stand beside so many incredible people who seek to evoke change in their own community.
Hairstyle Inn Salons are eager to see what this year brings for Shelley and TLC@Home. With each year the charity continues to grow, touching the lives of more-and-more deserving children who might not otherwise experience the true magic of Christmas.

Need a new hairstylist?
Looking for a new hairstylist can be a daunting task. Word of mouth is one of the best ways to get recommendations. Ask your friends, family and coworkers who does their hair. Even if you see a hairstyle you like on a stranger, ask them who their stylist is! Check out reviews online of salons and stylists to help narrow down your options. Make sure the salon is somewhere you can see yourself going. Research potential hairstylists on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram to have a look at their portfolio and check out their style of work.
Once you have narrowed it down to a particular stylist, you can either have a consultation or make an appointment and go for it! Open up and let the stylist know what your looking for. Be realistic, know your own hair type and how much time you are going to spend styling everyday. Bring pictures along of hairstyles you like and discuss them with the stylist. He or she should be able to suggest what will look best and offer more alternatives if needed. It takes time for your hairstylist to get to know you so it’s best to keep up the relationship for at least a couple appointments to see how it works out. The better you get to know your stylist, the better they get to know you and what works for your personality and lifestyle!
Come visit us at either of our Saskatoon locations, at Centre and Lawson, or our Prince Albert location to check out the salon and meet our team members! We look forward to meeting you!

Going Blonde ?
Is it true that blondes have more fun? Well, it’s tough to say, but you can for sure say that they get a lot of attention! It’s hard not for your eyes to turn and check-out that blonde bombshell walking past you.
With summer quickly approaching many girls (and guys, too!) are thinking that now is the perfect time to change up their hair color to a fun, bright, blonde shade. Whether it be with a tonne of blonde highlights or babylights, balayaging, ombres or a super ashy silver blonde, summer seems to be the hottest time to make it happen!
It goes without saying that blonde isn’t the color for everyone. If you had blonde(ish) hair as a child it’s safe to say that you definitely have the skin-tone to pull it off today. However, certain shades of blonde are not ideal for everyone. Icy or ashy blonde tones are best suited for a porcelain skin color, creamy blondes work best for those with darker skin-tones, whereas those platinum or fashion blonde colors tend to work on most skin-tones but it’s extremely high-fashion and your hair has to always be “on point” or you might swing more on the trailer-trash spectrum of the blonde color wheel (someone had to say it).
With all of that aside, there are definitely a few things to consider before going blonde. It can be a bit of process, and it’s good to know and consider a few of these tips and points before sitting down in the stylist’s chair and starting the transformation!
1) It’s a lot easier for someone with a naturally darker blonde hair-color to lighten their hair to an even more intense blonde, especially platinum. If your color is naturally brown or much darker you might want to consider starting with highlights and working your way up from there!
2) Do not box color your hair hair blonde. Ever. Seriously. Remember that trailer-trash look we’ve already been over?
Unless this is the look you’re going for, this is definitely a job for the professionals! And even if this is the look you’re hoping to achieve, it’s probably still in your best interest to let a professional do the work to make sure your hair is lifted and toned safely to avoid your haircut having to turn into a buzzcut!
3) Be prepared to know that you might need cut some hair off! If a long blonde look is what you’re going for keep in mind that hair below the bra-strap is often four years old, could have old color existing on it, and could be lacking the strength needed to get that blonde bombshell color you’re wanting! This isn’t always the case, but it’s something to definitely consider when starting the process.
4) Everyone’s hair lifts differently. Some people’s hair will bleach out effortlessly while some people may not achieve the same lift. These people won’t achieve a bright platinum blonde in one sitting. Your hair can only handle so much bleach, so as professionals we can’t damage and sacrifice the integrity of your hair. Going blonde can take baby steps! So be prepared for a few visits to salon before that look you really want is achieved.
5) Be prepared for the “blonde budget!” This can start right in the chair. A lot of people will need a double process just to start the blonde transformation, plus if you use an Olaplex treatment in the color, which we highly suggest (Olaplex allows you to achieve blonde a lot more safely, it works as a treatment for the hair while it’s lifting to avoid damaging the hair, and it also gets your blonde even BLONDER) that’s an extra charge on your service, as well. Purple shampoo is also going to be your new best friend. Purple shampoo is used to eliminate that horrible brassy, golden color that we all want to avoid that can happen as your blonde ages. Again, because bleach is damaging your stylist may also suggest an at-home treatment to keep the hair good and healthy. You’ll also notice that you might need more visits to the salon to upkeep the blonde, especially if you’re coming from a darker color (HELLO, roots!). If you’re hoping for something that’s less maintenance perhaps an Ombre is the way to go!
Now that you know everything you need to know about going blonde get out there and make it happen! The world needs more of you fabulous blonde bombshells!

Uninspired by your own hair and lusting after those cute messy bobs you keep seeing around? We’ve all been there, right? Stuck in hair — and stuck in life. When your hair doesn’t feel right, nothing seems to go well. Something tells you that it’s time for a major change. Well, a good haircut or color can catap ult you into rockstar status. And, this kind of confidence boost can get you out of your rut.
There are so many tips to remember before changing your hair. Will you get sick of the hairstyle? Can you change it with few issues if you don’t like it? Most importantly, how will it look on you? The next time you’re thinking about a drastic haircut, consider these tips before changing your hair!
1. Think One Year from Now
Will you be sick of this hairstyle a year from now? Depending on how drastic this hairstyle change is, you may still have this hairstyle a year from now. If you think you may be sick of this hairstyle a year or so from now, it’s probably best to keep thinking about it for a little bit longer before changing your hair. You could even go for a less drastic change if you’re not fully ready to commit just yet!
2. Is It Permanent?
Just how permanent is this change you’re wanting to make? If you have dark hair and want to bleach it out to eventually dye or tone it a crazy color, you have to consider just how permanent that is. Bleaching strips your hair of its natural color. Are you ready for something that permanent?
3. Are You Equipped to Handle This Hairstyle?
You may be used to an easy “blow-dry and go” style, and you may be committing to a style that’s not as easy. Make sure you have the time, tools, and patience to commit to a new style that could completely change your morning routine. After you’ve figured that out, embrace your new hairstyle!
4. Will This Work for You?
How will your new hairstyle look on you? If you can’t picture it without the help of some visuals, do a few Google searches to find a virtual hair salon to try out the new style.You’ll never know for sure until you see it on yourself, so look for a website that lets you virtually try it out!
