Hair Trends on The List

Patrice was recently featured on The List, in a piece about hair trends that people ditched in 2019. The article, written by Brittany Brolley, discusses the fall of popular styles such as ombre, rainbow hair, messy buns and many more.  

Patrice shared her input on the messy bun stating, “Women are moving to a more polished look” — just like the Duchess of Sussex. 

What are your thoughts on the messy bun trend? And what are you hoping will come back for 2020? We’d love to hear what you think!

PVS Now Carries Oribe’s Lip Lust Creme Lipsticks

Savvy beauty lovers know the way to complement your newly coifed style is with a swipe of the perfect lip shade. And surprisingly, there’s no better way to get that fantastic pop of color than from cult classic hair brand Oribe.

Patrice Vinci Salon recently started carrying Oribe’s luscious Lip Lust Creme Lipstick in nine new gorgeous fall colors - The Red, The Nude, The Violet, Imperial Rose, Super Natural, Fuschia Glow, Tropic Flame, Ruby Red, and Rosewood. It boasts a satin finish that leaves you with a full-impact pout.

Not only is the color persuasive, so is the lipstick’s formula. It’s infused with white lily and myrrh for healthy moisture that protects and plumps. White lily provides antioxidant protection while hydrating, and Myrrh combats the signs of aging (bye bye, lip lines). There’s a sense of control in application, and a silky texture and finish that melts on with a sensual feel.

Who knew a hair guru could bless us with the perfect lipstick?

Oribe Lip Lust Creme Lipstick is available at PVS for $42.

Our Top Four Dry Shampoos

The summer heat hasn't left us yet. You might be #teamfall, but you could be dealing with humidity and sweat turning your ‘do into a don’t for at least a little bit longer.

Enter the dry shampoo. Just a quick mist on unwashed dry hair, a tousle and rid your hair of all that pesky oil, sweat, and grime that the tough temps have been bringing to your look. Things will settle down nicely between washes, and you’re primped and primed to go do whatever your day holds, wheather it’s rosé all day or a pumpkin spice latté.

Here are a few of our favorites:

Kevin.Murphy Fresh.Hair ($30, available at PVS)
Shake it up and spray away the oil and excess products from the day before. Tangerine peel helps lock down cuticle for natural shine. And something else that makes us smile - For every can sold, a contribution is made to help reduce global carbon emissions.

Rene Furterer Paris NATURIA Dry Shampoo ($36)
This lightly scented dry shampoo refreshes hair and boosts volume between shampoos thanks to oil-absorbing rice, cornstarch, clay and silica powders. For a cleansing boost it relies on peppermint, basil and caraway essential oils.

Bumble and bumble Pret-a-Powder Tres Invisible Dry Shampoo with French Pink Clay ($29)
For a oui bit of TLC, we love this two-in-one powerhouse that’s both a style extender, immediately absorbing oil and sweat with French clay, and a volumizer from roots to ends. It’s a far cry from their first iteration (a messy shake on color powder). Bonus: UV filters help protect your color.

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo ($23)
Boston-based Living Proof is proof you can go a day or two without washing. They power their dry shampoo with a patented healthy hair molecule (OFPMA) and triple-action cleaning technology. There’s no powdery buildup behind and a time-release fragrance.
