Weekly Featured Product: Phyto Fiber Paste


Bella Bethesda expert who recommends this great product:  Ngoc

Phyto Fiber Paste is a must-have for those looking for one product to create multiple looks.  This versatile matte elastic fiber paste can take hair from piecey and textured to smooth and sleek.  Best suited for textured cuts, both short and long, this product provides the structure and control of a strong gel with the pliability of a pomade.

How to use:  Begin with a small amount – you can always add more.  Smooth product in the palm of your hands and apply throughout dry hair, taking care to avoid the root area. 

Tip:  For easiest application, pretend you are wiping the product off on the surface of your hair.    

Current Promotion:  Buy 1 Phyto item from the newly launched line and receive a Phyto item that is old packaging for FREE (equal or lesser value).

Weekly Featured Product: Pureology Cuticle Polisher Shine Serum


Bella Bethesda expert who recommends this great product:  Kathryn

Pureology Cuticle Polisher is a lightweight cream-to-serum formula that seals and smoothes while adding shine and protection.  Though this product is best for medium to coarse hair textures, its soft hold won’t leave hair feeling weighed down.       

How to use:  Emulsify product in your hands until it melts in to a slippery, shiny texture.  Work into either damp or dry hair. 

Tip:  Start with a pea-sized amount and only apply to the mid-lengths and ends – a little goes a long way!

6th Annual Cut It for a Cause


In February, Bella Bethesda Salon hosted its 6th annual Cut It for a Cause campaign benefiting Locks of Love.  The week-long drive offered a complimentary haircut and blow dry to any guest willing to donate at least 10 inches of hair.  It was heartwarming to see so many new faces join us throughout the week and offer their help to those in need.

The overwhelming generosity of 71 individuals allowed us to collect 753 inches during our 2013 campaign, taking the 6-year total to a whopping 3,453 inches – just shy of a football field!  The hair will be sent to Locks of Love where it will be made into wigs and distributed to children suffering from medical hair loss due to any diagnosis.

To everyone who donated this year, or has donated to Locks of Love in the past, we are so thankful for your contribution.  Such a simple gift will provide a child with restored confidence and normalcy.  Thank you from the Bella Bethesda staff for your kindness.

Start growing now and help us donate more inches than ever in 2014!  Or, if you missed this year’s event, but are eager to donate to Locks of Love, call us at 301.718.9111 for more information, or check out this video for a recap of the event!
