Q & A with Bella Stylist & Redken Certified Haircolorist Demetrios, Part I

Q:  What are your hair/haircolor “dos” and "don'ts"?

Q.  What hair trends are currently most popular?

A:  The trends I currently see most are shadowed roots and keeping the hair as natural as possible.

Q:  What hair trend would you like to see go away?

A:  Over-processed and over-lightened hair
