Invati
So a lot of people always ask my how to get their hair to grow faster and I always give the same answer: biotin. Well aveda came out with a new product line this month called invati (http://www.aveda.com/products/8419/Collections/InvatiTM/index.tmpl), if you look on aveda’s website it promotes for fuller thicker hair (33% fuller and thicker in 6 weeks). Invati is amazing because it is targeted to a wide range of people. Not only does it help thicken your hair, but it also repairs damage and helps promote hair growth! It’s a 3 part system: shampoo, conditioner, and the scalp revitalizer. The shampoo is exfoliating and basically cleans everything off your scalp that would prevent your hair from growing. The conditioner helps repair damaged hair. And the scalp revitalizer actually stimulates hair growth! You really have to use all 3 products to get the full effect, and it’s definitely something to have to commit to (if you don’t continually use it you will not see any further results). It has had great results and can be found in any aveda salon (unless it has sold out already like ours has!). If you have very fine hair, damaged hair, hair loss, or simply just want your hair to grow faster give invati a try!
how was it shooting the "more than alive" music video? :D
Super super fun :)
How often should I wash the brush I use for my gel liner??
I’d say anywhere from 2-3 days to once a week!
I'm the same person that just asked about the aveda schools! I want to have a hair background to fall back on but i'd go into the cosmetology program which also offers makeup, because i'd like to get into styling and makeup artistry not necessarily salon work for my entire life. Would you say you learned a lot of makeup things too? thanks by the way, this is a big help!!
I did the cosmetology program as well (that’s all they offered at the time I went, now they also offer a esthetician program). But we had a few make up classes but it isn’t a main focus. I think we spent about 1 week on it all together out of a 10 month program. It mainly focuses on hair!
Hey, Katelyn! So, I love to change up my hairstyles and cuts a lot, but after a while I always seem to change it back to how it is now: a little longer than shoulder length, thick swoop bangs, and layers. My hair naturally has thick waves and I have heart/oval shaped face. Do you think I should cut it to a long bob, or grow it out, or maybe grow out my bangs? Thanks for the help! :)
I think you should do what you want! I like to change my hair up a lot too, so do what you feel like now!
are aveda schools really regarded very highly in the world of hair professionals? Like if I were to go to one as opposed to just any old hair school would i be looked at as a better option for hiring? I really want to go to an aveda school but there isn't one near me, would it be worth it to go a few hours away?
Definitely! Especially if you want to stick with an aveda salon like I have! You’ll be 1 step above everyone :)
When you go on the road with Jordan, is it hard since youre the only girl? what do you do when he's busy doing interviews and radio and stuff?
The last few times Ellie has actually gone out when I have too so I wasn’t the only girl! And when I went on warped Nikki and Ellie were both there! Usually I’ll read a book or watch a show while he does his stuff :)
hey! i'm sorry if this is confusing because i don't know anything about hair, but do different salons have different coloring systems? like, do they have different shades and different ways of getting the same color? haha sorry this is so wierd, i'm just really confused about how hair color works!
That’s not a bad question at all! And yes a lot do! All aveda salons will use aveda’s color line, redken has their own color line, Paul Mitchell has its own color line, a there are others too! So it just depends on the type of salon or the salon in general!
does jordan use aveda products? :D
Yup!
sorry if this is a really stupid question but how do i get a dermatologist?
I just had to find a new one, but just find a dermatologist office then either call or go in and make an appointment! You’re best off to look in a phone book and maybe find one close to you?
What college did you go to for psychology?
Ipfw a local college here in ft Wayne!
What kind of shampoo/conditioner do you use for your red hair? I've been using Radiant Red by John Frieda but it seems like the red is fading fast. It hasn't even been a month yet and my hair looks brown again.
I use aveda’s color conserve. Unfortunately reds do fade really really fast. I also use their madder root conditioner which actually adds red pigment to your hair until you wash it again which could help you!
do you watch tabatha's salon takeover?
Yes! I love it :)
Do you have any tips for to stop biting nails?
I know there is a nail polish that tastes really bad when you bite them. That’s all I know of though really :/
Hi Katelyn! I was wondering if since my face is a bit square-ish it would look alright if I got bangs like Jordan's and long layers? Also, how would I ask for bangs like Jordan's? I can't really find a good picture.
That would actually be a great cut for you! Ask for bangs that swoop over and cover your forehead!
Lolz, who's Jordan?
Idk a Jordan…lolz
In your nails photo, is that an engagement ring? Or are you just wearing it? (:
It’s a promise ring ;)
