You're probably familiar with a handful of hair coloring terms, not limited to ombre, foiling and balayage. One of the latest trends is one that we expect to gain quite a bit of momentum moving forward, especially considering how popular the "no-makeup makeup" look is right now. Strandlighting refers to highlighting very, very tiny — almost undetectable — strands of hair so that it blends seamlessly into the rest of your color. The goal is to walk out of the salon looking fresh but not obviously dyed.
K-Beauty has glistened under the skin care industry's loving beam for a good half decade, but it's officially starting to share more shelf space with Japanese, or "J" Beauty, products. We're seeing a rise in popularity of staple brands, such as Shiseido and Tatcha, but we're also starting to see the introduction of new brands, including Katess and Lu Lu Lun. We're not saying that K-Beauty is going anywhere. In fact, it's definitely here to stay. We're just saying that other countries are starting to make a name for themselves, and J-Beauty is leading the pack right now.
