It’s not very often that we get to see a new Paris Hilton hairstyle. The socialite prefers to stick with her blonde locks but this time she has ditched them for a darker shade.

Look at these pictures and you’ll realize that Paris has messed up with her beach blonde locks and adopted a new celebrity hairstyle by going brunette!

We wonder why Paris got brunette hair at the first place. She looks much better in blonde. Also, all her businesses are doing fairly well and they don’t seem to have a dark future. So, why this darker shade Paris?

She hasn’t reduced the length of her tresses which recently came handy when she used them to cover her modesty while posing topless for men’s magazine FHM.

Perhaps, the new Paris Hilton hairstyle is for her upcoming Beach Club chain. The first one is expected to open in Philippines and it will have nightclubs, restaurants, bars, gyms, and much more.

Successful salons give lot of importance for providing customer service as it strengthens their reputation and image. A happy and satisfied client becomes your evangelist and may refer more clients. However, providing customer service is time consuming as it requires your staff to interact with your clients on a regular basis, but what if this process is automated?

Hair Salon Answering Service is the answer to make customer service fully automated!

The friendly live operators act as your salon receptionists and answer your callers in your salon’s name, professionally answering questions on salon hours and pricing.

This automated customer service is able to determine hairstylist schedules, booking your client appointments right over the phone. All Hair Salon Answering Service appointments go directly to your salon in e-mail format and include client name, contact information, and services requested (such as cut, color, blow drying, and waxing treatments). It also allows you to reschedule or cancel an appointment.

Holiday parties are an occasion when everyone wants to look at their best, or even better than best. However, this year, many of us barely have money to buy expensive presents for our family, let alone a new dress for every party we’re invited to. We can still look awesome with old dress if we get a new hairstyle.

Visiting a salon to get a new hairstyle for every holiday party is not a sensible option. In such a case, buying a pair of professional hair shears and styling hair on our own is a good option. If you have basic knowledge about hairstyling, you should grab hair shears and style your own hair.

The special ScissorBoy discount on hair shears is another opportunity to avoid spending money by visiting salons. If you don’t know hair-cutting, you can still buy ScissorBoy shears and get the job done with the help of your family members. If you are a cosmetology student, you cannot ask for a better present this Christmas than a pair of brand new hairdressing scissors.

If you’re not usually the do-it-yourself hairstyle type, don’t fret, you can still achieve celebrity hairstyles for your holiday parties. You can easily recreate these looks at home and flaunt these glamorous hairstyles.
