As a Master stylist and with over 25 years of Precision cutting experience, I am sharing the secret behind a great hair cut! How do I continue to create a great hair cut each time and every time for each of my Guests consistently every 5-6 weeks?

First, have a system! Having a system allows for consistent styling from visit to visit. The system/technique we use was implemented by Gary Gerard International Haircutting. He was the pioneer of Quadrangle Style of cutting hair, with the original philosophy of creating haircuts based on a four section, systemic technique. Using a consistant system allows for the finished haircut to be the same every time.

Hair cuts were shaped the way canvas is cut to stretch on a frame, as a prelude to creation. The Premier West Coast Teacher and Sylist changed hair from fabric to sculpture, using his shears to craft shapes that enhanced features without hours of setting, teasing, and pinning. His revolutionary methods changed the industry and for many stylists, allowing for a simple blowout to style the hair to a finish. His training system has been one of the most respected for 25 years. A precision haircut is a style using techniques that create straight, dramatic lines and clean angles.

The "Barbers Cut!"

If your stylist ask "what number do you like?" You are most likely not in a Barber's Chair.
One of the most widely used techniques for cutting men’s hair, clipper over comb is a fundamental skill to master. It provides an even, consistent cut, and is ideal for removing significant amounts of hair. A variety of different finishes are possible, depending on the size of clipper or blade you choose. The right size of clipper and comb will depend on the area of the head you’re working on, as well as the hair’s length and texture. By cutting hair evenly at the exterior, a clipper over comb technique encourages hair to grow out nicely and last longer. The "clipper over comb" technique also allow for a very short yet even finish of the hair.

Our Technique!

Balayage (aka French Hair Painting)
"The art of hair painting is a process that gives a more dimensional and natural looking color."
Dions' Salon has been using this technique for over 20 years, with fabulous results!
People often ask the difference between traditional foiling and the artistry of hair painting. Dions Salon uses a tool that is specially designed to help apply the color to the hair, leaving just the right amount. Not only is the result of hair painting far more beautiful, but it is much healthier for the hair. Aluminum foil is a conducter of heat, which almost bakes the bleach or lightening color into the hair creating dry, damaged hair.
Hair Painting is a process that we teach all of our colorists at the salon.
Originating in France, the word “Balayage” translates to “sweeping”, and the actual sweeping of color can be placed more precise and closer to the scalp. As a colorist we can place the highlight where nature intended it to be. Where as foil has it's place, we find theBalayage technique to be more modern and natural.

Nail Care and Finishes!


“A manicure is a beauty treatment for the hands. Although, the treatment is applied directly to the nails, the entire hand actually gets the benefit. The primary purpose of a manicure is to maintain the hand’s overall health. As such, it includes some basic steps that results to clean and healthy hands.”

Some of the basic steps included in a manicure are nail trimming, removal of cuticles, nail polishing, and moisturizing. While some people prefer to have their nails trimmed and nail cuticles removed, a lot prefer to have their nails polished. In fact, some are even more excited about getting their nails polished than their cuticles removed. This may sound ironic but true. Fortunately, a complete manicure process is never complete without all of these basic steps.
