What a Great Summer It Has Been!

Hi everyone,

What a wonderful summer we’ve had! I have loved seeing so many of you in the salon and hearing about your adventures. From repairing hair from those adventures to transforming hair into something new and for some keeping it the same for now. Thank you for continuing to trust me with your hair.

Bring Your Salon Shine Home

To close out the summer, I’m featuring the Virtue Healing Gloss through August 31. This at-home, in-shower treatment is perfect for helping maintain the softness, smoothness, and beautiful shine we create during your salon appointments. It is designed for all hair types and is especially helpful for hair that is color-treated, damaged, or looking a little dull after summer. Virtue recommends using it weekly or as needed; for my clients, I suggest incorporating it about every other week based on your hair’s needs. You can grab this in salon or add it to your online order by clicking the link below.

Celebrating Alyssa’s Next Chapter & Introducing Our New Assistant, Kaciee!

I’m excited to share that Alyssa is moving into her own chair this month!
She is now available for appointments and is a wonderful option when you are unable to find an opening with me. I’m so proud of her and excited to watch her continue growing behind the chair.

I’m also excited to introduce Kaciee, our new assistant!
Kaciee is newly licensed, enthusiastic, and ready to begin her journey in the hair world. I’m looking forward to introducing her to all of you and having her become part of your salon experience.

Looking Ahead to Fall and the Holidays

I can't believe I am typing this!! The holiday season always arrives faster than we expect. As we close out summer and begin moving into fall, now is the time to start planning your appointments through the holiday season. Booking ahead will give you the best chance of getting the dates and times that work for you.

** As a reminder I am currently working Friday and Saturday. For the weeks that a Holiday falls on a Friday I will work the Monday before the holiday. **

Thank You

As we close out another beautiful summer, I want you to know how grateful I am for every one of you. Your appointments, referrals, kind words, and years of support have allowed me to continue doing what I love. Thank you for supporting my small business and for trusting me with your hair. I appreciate you, and I look forward to seeing you in the salon soon.

XOXO - Christine

A Summer Closeout & Exciting Salon Updates Click here for an update from Christine Cantu Hair!

The hottest hair trends of Summer 2026 — curated just for you.

Summer 2026 Hair Report : Fresh. Refined. Effortlessly You.

The season is shifting, and so is the world of hair. This summer is all about intentional beauty — looks that feel as good as they look, and last from golden hour all the way to midnight. Whether you're craving a subtle refresh or a full transformation, I've curated the top trends of Summer 2026 just for you.

Glazed Brunette & Toasted Caramel

Sun-kissed just got an upgrade. This summer's richest color story lives in the warm, glossy brunette family — think melted caramel, amber honey, and toasted chestnut. Dimensional, radiant, and incredibly low-maintenance. This is the color that looks like you just stepped off a yacht in Positano.

Perfect for: Natural brunettes wanting depth, warmth, and glass-like shine.

Sculpted Waves & Effortless Texture

Forget stiff curls. The texture of the season is soft, lived-in, and intentionally undone. We're talking loose, beachy waves with structure — the kind that look like salt air did all the work, but only your stylist knows the secret. Pair with a glossing serum for that lit-from-within finish.

Perfect for: Any length, any texture. This one is universal.

Soft Face Framing & Curtain Bangs 2.0

They're back — and they're better. Curtain bangs have evolved into something softer, longer, and more customized to your face shape than ever before. When paired with long layers or a sleek blowout, they create an effortlessly chic frame that works with your natural movement.

Perfect for: Anyone looking for a change without committing to a big cut.

The Sleek Pony & Updo Renaissance

Elevated simplicity is having a major moment. Polished ponytails, sculptural buns, and sleek updos are dominating editorial looks and real life alike. Clean, glossy, and refined — this is the style that says you put in the effort without looking like you tried too hard.

Perfect for: Events, vacations, and anyone who wants a style that photographs beautifully.

I can't wait to have you in my chair to create your best summer hair ever. I know we are so good about making sure you are next appointment is on the books. Incase we forgot grab your appointment by clicking the button below!

See you soon! XOXO - Christine

Summer's Calling — And Your Hair Is Ready 🌊 Click here for an update from Christine Cantu Hair!

Hello My Amazing Clients!

If your hair has been feeling a little off lately—you’re not imagining it ✨
Spring shifts the hair cycle. Longer days can mean more shedding, more frizz—hair behaving differently than it did just weeks ago.

This is the time of year where a simple, consistent routine really makes the biggest difference.

A few easy ways to keep things manageable at home:

• Smooth + protect with Virtue's 6 in 1 lightweight styler before blow-drying 💨
• Using the Frizz block smoothing spray to help with humidity and flyaways 🌬️
• Add a little Volumizing Mousse at the roots if your hair feels flat.

Small changes, but they go a long way right now.

What I’m seeing for spring: 🌸

Softer, more natural shapes—lived-in layers, face-framing movement, and color that grows out effortlessly. Think warm dimension, blended blondes, and easy, touchable texture.

I just took an advanced haircutting class focused on updated layering and modern styling techniques ✂️ Creating soft movement enhancing the dimension in your color. I’m super excited to bring some fresh ideas into your next appointment.

And if you’ve been wanting to refresh your at-home routine Virtue is offering all my clients a special deal for the month of May. Remember if you aren't sure what products to use on your hair make sure you reach out and ask me. I'm always ready for your questions.

Starting today—
$25 off $99+ (SAVE25)
$10 off $49+ (SAVE10) 🛍️

If you’re ready for a seasonal refresh—cut, color, or routine—I’m here for it 🤍

Your May Hair Update (and what’s changing) 🌿 Click here for an update from Christine Cantu Hair!

Winter Took a Toll on Your Hair — Let’s Repair It

Hey There,

If your hair has been feeling dry, brittle, dull, or harder to style lately… you’re not imagining it. Winter weather quietly damages your hair.
Cold air pulls moisture out. Indoor heat dries it even more.
Extra hot tools add stress to already fragile strands.

By March, most hair is:
• More prone to breakage
• Losing shine
• Feeling rough at the ends
• Tangling more easily

The good news? We can fix it.

🔎 3 Signs You Need Repair Right Now

Your ends feel rough even after conditioning.
Your hair breaks when brushing.
Your blowouts don’t look as smooth as they used to.
If that sounds like you — now is the time to repair before breakage gets worse.

💧 My March Repair Plan

This month I’m recommending a simple at-home repair system powered by Alpha Keratin 60ku® from Virtue Labs — a protein identical to the keratin in your own hair. That means it doesn’t just coat the hair. It actually helps rebuild weakened areas.

Here’s what I recommend:

🛁 Recovery Shampoo + Conditioner (https://www.virtuelabs.com/stylist/Christine-Badou)
Gently cleanses while strengthening stressed strands.

🧴 Restorative Treatment Mask (1–2x per week) (https://www.virtuelabs.com/stylist/Christine-Badou)
Deep repair for dry, fragile ends.

✨ Healing Oil (https://www.virtuelabs.com/stylist/Christine-Badou)
Seals moisture, smooths flyaways, and adds instant shine without heaviness.

Let's get your hair ready for spring! Can't wait to have you in my chair. If you haven't booked your March appointment yet shoot me a text @ (714) 277-8037 or click the button below.

See you soon!

Here’s how to build a routine that actually works 👇

✨ Strength & Shield Leave-In Conditioner

This is your missing step for:
Long-lasting moisture
Heat protection

Seasonal shedding is one of the most searched hair concerns—and it’s something I get asked about constantly.

✨ Flourish®

This clinically proven treatment supports:
Reduced shedding
Healthier scalp conditions
Fuller-looking hair over time
Consistency is key here—and now is a great time to start.

💨 Static-Free Blowouts + Extra Shine

If your hair is flying everywhere or won’t hold a smooth finish, it’s usually craving oil—not more heat.

✨ Healing Oil

This helps:
Seal in moisture
Eliminate static
Add shine without heaviness
A few drops go a long way.

✨ December is all about glossy color, hydration, and happy hair!

Happy Holidays,

Can you believe the holidays are already here? ❄ December is filled with festive fun, family gatherings, and—let’s be real—a lot of dry air, heat styling, and stress on your hair.

Here are a few quick tips to keep your hair healthy and glowing all season long:

🎁 Deep Condition Weekly – Cold weather can be harsh, so show your strands some extra love with a hydrating mask.

🎄 Use a Heat Protectant – Whether you’re curling for a party or straightening for family photos, protect before you style.

✨ Add Shine with a Gloss Treatment – It’s the perfect way to refresh your color or give dull winter hair a glow-up.

Holiday appointments are filling up fast, so if you still need to book your December visit, now’s the time! Whether it’s a trim, color refresh, or styling for your holiday events, I’d love to get you in. Before Christmas vacation. Last Day for Holiday hair is December 22nd.

Wishing you peace, joy, and good hair days this holiday season.
Thank you for trusting me with your hair this year—I’m so grateful for you. 💕

XOXO - Christine

Hello,

November is here, and before the holiday hustle kicks into full gear, I wanted to pause and say a heartfelt thank you. 💛 I'm truly grateful for every guest who sits in my chair—your support means the world and makes this career so rewarding.

As we move into the season of gatherings, photos, and cozy celebrations, it’s also the perfect time to give your hair a little pre-holiday refresh.

🍁 Here are your November hair tips:

✔ Deep Condition Weekly – Indoor heat + dry air can zap moisture fast. Hydrating treatments are your best friend this month.

✔ Get Your Color in Early – Touching up your color now means less stress (and better roots) in December photos.

✔ Protect Your Ends – Scarves and sweaters are cute, but they can cause friction. Consider a trim to prevent split ends!

📅 ✨ Final Call: Holiday Appointments Are Almost Gone!
If you want to look and feel your best before the new year hits, now’s the time to book your spot. Let’s make sure your hair is glowing for all your celebrations!

Thank you again for your continued support and trust. I’m so lucky to have amazing clients like you. Wishing you a November full of warmth, gratitude, and good hair days. 🍂💇

XOXO - Christine
