marilyn's bday bash

We want to give a special thanks to everyone for celebrating Morphic's 2nd birthday as we kicked off the year with our Hair Movie Night Film Series starring Marilyn Monroe in Some Like It Hot. Mishi had a blast playing the part of being Marilyn singing her infamous version of Happy Birthday. The Morphic team had a great time handing out Marilyn prizes at our raffle and trivia to all our knowledgeable fashionistas. For those of you who have never seen Some Like It Hot it's a hilarious piece of Hollywood history that you need to put in your queue of movies to check out this weekend. Enjoy!

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY MORPHIC!

hair movie night for 2013

Starting Monday January 28th, Morphic will be hosting regular movie night meet ups! What kind of movie, you ask? Hair movies, of course! We'll kick off the series with Marilyn Monroe's classic, "Some Like it Hot". The first Monday, (Jan. 28th) we'll watch the film and enjoy some house-made popcorn... and the following Monday (Feb. 4th) we'll practice Marilyn's iconic style. Bring your hairdresser friends, and your own model to practice your skills. (You can come practice on yourself, too!) The more the merrier. We'll also have a raffle drawing for free products! Bring drinks, pillows, or whatever else you feel like bringing for Morphic's first movie night. Come on by and check it out!

xo, Mishi

Perfecting the perfect niche

I really enjoyed being the guest speaker at the San Francisco Institute of Esthetics and Cosmetology for Paul Mitchell!  I taught the o'young hairdressers how to balayage and how I became one of the top hair stylists in San Francisco because of it.  I must say, it feels really good to give back.  It's all about becoming a specialist in a trend that's going to stick around- like learning how to balayage.  As with many successful business owners, I feel that I have a thriving career because of the niche I've selected.  All I did was look at what was trending in New York and L.A, the origin where most hair and beauty trends come from.  San Francisco is a little delayed in picking up fashion/beauty trends, but we eventually get on broad! That's actually something to take advantage of if you want to be an early adopter.  I started doing balayage five years ago, after meeting and being inspired by colorist Vivian Grimaldo in L.A.  I trained and studied the technique, and now I have new clients every day that are thrilled with my balayage color results. They look incredible!  I'm really proud of what I do and as I continue to grow, I love being able to share my knowledge with other hairdressers.

 

 

the tangle teezer

 

We are so excited to share with you the latest addition to the Morphic aresenal: the Tangle Teezer. This little beauty tool de-tangles your hair like no one's business! First, spray a light coating of leave-in conditioner on your hair. Then, start combing at the ends of your hair, and work your way up. The Tangle Teezer combs your hair effortlessly, smoothing each strand into the silkiest of locks. It also gives you a gently invigorating scalp massage as you brush. It feels so good, I almost started purring! And for all of you ladies who love to back comb your hair, the Tangle Teezer smooths out the snarls perfectly. These fab brushes range from $12.99 to $18.99 and come in a variety of different colors. Give it a try. You will love it!
