        3 Timeless Hairstyles Inspired by Iconic Moms

        3 Timeless Hairstyles Inspired by Iconic Moms

        As Mother's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to celebrate the influential mothers who have left an indelible mark on history. From Hollywood icons to royalty, these legendary moms not only captivated audiences with their talent but also inspired timeless hairstyles that continue to influence fashion today.

        Follow along as we celebrate three iconic moms and their signature hairstyles with easy to follow instructions on how to recreate these looks using some of your favorite Pai-Shau Haircare products.


        Audrey Hepburn: Imperial Hold Hairspray

        Renowned for her timeless beauty and grace, Audrey Hepburn mesmerized audiences worldwide with her captivating performances on screen and her humanitarian efforts off screen. As a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, she devoted much of her later life to humanitarian work, using her fame to advocate for children's rights and humanitarian causes around the world. Audrey's iconic updo in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" epitomized elegance and sophistication, becoming a symbol of timeless beauty and style. 


        To recreate this sophisticated look, start by gently teasing the crown of your hair for volume. Gather your hair into a sleek bun at the nape of your neck, securing it with bobby pins to hide flyaways. Finish with a spritz of Imperial Hold Hairspray for a polished look worthy of any Hollywood starlet.


        Princess Diana: Royal Abundance Mousse


        Beloved by millions around the globe, Princess Diana was deeply admired for her warmth, compassion, and timeless sense of style. As a devoted mother and philanthropist, she used her platform to advocate for various charitable causes, including those related to children's welfare and healthcare. Her short, tousled bob became a global sensation, setting trends for generations to come. Diana's hairstyle symbolized her approachability and modernity, breaking away from the rigid traditions of royal grooming. 


        Achieve her regal look using Royal Abundance Mousse on wet hair and then on medium high heat - blow-dry with a round brush. Be sure to lift at the root as you blow dry to get plenty of bounce and volume - creating a soft and romantic look fit for royalty. 


        Michelle Obama: Style Soufflé

        A trailblazer and advocate for education and health, Michelle made history as the first African American First Lady of the United States. Throughout her tenure in the White House, she became a symbol of grace, intelligence, and resilience, inspiring millions around the world with her unwavering dedication to empowering women and children. As a mother, lawyer, and advocate, Michelle Obama embodied strength and elegance along with her impeccable sense of style. Her sleek and sophisticated hairstyles have made her a modern-day style icon and role model for moms everywhere. 

        To recreate Michelle’s signature sleek style, apply a dime to quarter size of Style Soufflé before your blow out, working into hair from root to tip. Use a paddle brush to create a sleek, frizz free look. Once dry, use a small amount of Style Soufflé for a little extra frizz control and added shine. 

        So here's to the moms who rock our worlds with their strength, kindness, and unwavering support. Whether they're making big waves or simply being there for us in the small moments, moms deserve all the love and recognition this Mother's Day and every day. Let's raise a toast to their incredible impact on our lives, from their iconic hairstyles to their even more iconic acts of love and service.

        Time to Bloom: 4 Tips for Revitalizing Your Haircare Routine this Spring

        Time to Bloom: 4 Tips for Revitalizing Your Haircare Routine this Spring

        As the world awakens from the slumber of winter, so too does our desire for renewal and rejuvenation. Spring is the perfect time to refresh various aspects of our lives, and what better place to start than with our haircare routine? Let's explore some spring-themed tips and tricks that will infuse new life into your locks.

        Tip #1: Blossoming Change: Switch Up Your Haircare Routine

        Just as flowers bloom and trees burst with vibrant colors, it's time for your haircare routine to undergo a transformation. With the change in seasons, consider switching to lighter hair products that align with the springtime atmosphere. Opt for hydrating shampoos and conditioners to combat the residual effects of winter dryness.

        Experiment with hairstyles that capture the essence of spring – loose braids, soft waves, or a playful ponytail can add a touch of freshness to your look. Keep those strands in place and your spring style looking fresh as ever with our Refresh and Set product duo that includes our RoyalTEA Blow Dry Refresher and Volumizer plus choose between Sublime (flexible) or Imperial (strong) Hold Hairspray to suit your style needs. These dream products will help you extend blowouts, hold styles and revitalize hair between washes.

        BONUS: This style boosting duo also includes a stylish see through envelope clutch that can transition from day to night. Toss in your favorite lipstick or some of our favorite travel products to keep your style looking strong all spring long.


        Tip #2: Spring Cleaning: Bid Farewell to Expired Products

        Just as you declutter your living space during spring cleaning, it's crucial to assess your haircare product collection. Check the expiration dates on your shampoos, conditioners, and styling products. If any have expired, it's time to bid them farewell. Expired products can be less effective and may even cause harm to your hair and scalp.

        Take a moment to assess the products you rarely use or those that haven't lived up to your expectations. If they're taking up valuable space, consider donating or discarding them. Streamlining your haircare collection not only frees up space but also allows you to focus on the products that truly enhance the health and beauty of your hair.

        Tip #3: A Breath of Fresh Hair: Hydrate + Conquer

        As the temperature rises, so does the need to keep your hair feeling fresh. Consider incorporating super hydrating products into your routine this season to help combat frizz and flyaways. Our Hydrating NecessiTEAS Travel Set is the perfect way to try out a new product line AND every item is below the 100 ounce requirement for airline travel - so you’ll be looking fabulous all spring and summer long as you jet set off to your favorite vacation spots with healthy, hydrated hair.

        Tip #4: Nourish from Within: Healthy Hair Starts with a Healthy You

        Spring is the perfect time to assess not only the products you use but also your overall health. A balanced diet, rich in vitamins and nutrients contributes to the health and vitality of your hair. Include foods like leafy greens, fruits, and proteins to nourish your hair from within.

        Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, as this not only benefits your overall well-being but also promotes healthier, shinier hair. Consider adding a hair-boosting supplement to your routine if you feel your locks need an extra dose of care.

        Spring offers the ideal backdrop for a fresh start, and your haircare routine should be no exception. Embrace the blooming season by switching up your products, decluttering your collection, and incorporating rejuvenating practices. By doing so, you'll not only keep your hair looking fresh but also usher in a season of renewed confidence and vitality.

        Love is in the HAIR: Unveil Your Valentine's Day Glam with Pai-Shau

        Love is in the HAIR: Unveil Your Valentine's Day Glam with Pai-Shau

        Love is in the HAIR, and so is the anticipation for the perfect Valentine's Day look! If you're envisioning hair that turns heads and steals hearts, we've got the inside scoop. In this guide, we're spilling the secrets to achieving flawless Valentine's Day hair using our favorite styling must-haves: Opulent Volume Spray and Style Soufflé.

        Opulent Volume Spray - Elevate Your Volume Game

        Say goodbye to flat, lifeless locks and hello to Opulent Volume Spray – your ticket to hair that speaks volumes. With the beneficial goodness of ginseng, white nettle, gleditschia and our Signature Tea Complex, this spray is not just a styling game-changer; it's a whole hair revolution.


        How to Work Your Valentine’s Day Volume Magic:

        • Start with clean, dry hair: The canvas matters, and a fresh start ensures optimal results. Opulent Volume Spray works wonders, especially if your hair tends to be on the finer side.

        • Mist it like you mean it: Hold the Opulent Volume Spray at arm's length and let it rain generously all over your hair. Ensure an even mist for that full-coverage volume effect.

        • Roots need love too: For the drama seekers, focus on the root area and let Opulent Volume Spray do its magic.

        • Blow me away: For medium volume, grab a flat brush - for maximum volume consider using a round brush. Use your brush to pull up, away from the scalp while blow drying on medium heat. This will create glam-worthy lift at the root for a bold look you’ll love.

        • Style, baby, style: If you don’t want to wear your hair straight, add a fun style! Loose waves, a sleek pony, or glamorous curls – whatever your vibe, Opulent Volume Spray is the secret weapon for that lift and texture that screams confidence. Feel free to experiment until you find your Valentine's Day hair soulmate.

        With Opulent Volume Spray, your Valentine's Day hairstyle isn't just on point; it's the MANE event!

        Style Soufflé - Your Styling Soulmate

        Now that you've nailed the volume, it's time to tame and reign with Style Soufflé – your partner in crime for supreme control and manageability. Packed with antioxidants, this styling marvel retains moisture during the styling process, leaving your hair with soft volume and an impeccable memory.

        How to Slay with Style Soufflé:

        • Root to tip, honey: Take a dollop of Style Soufflé and apply from your root  to the tips of your hair.

        • Blow-dry or air-dry drama: Style Soufflé lets you decide your destiny – go for the blow dryer if you crave efficiency or let the air work its natural magic. Style however you like! Some of our fav looks? Slicked back pony, romantic tousled waves - using a waver or curling iron - or a messy updo while incorporating your favorite Valentine’s Day hair accessories.

        • Fight frizz + dull hair: A touch of Style Soufflé on dry hair is the secret to saying bye-bye to frizz. A small amount goes a long way in keeping your locks polished and sleek. Curly hair? Scrunch while applying to enhance your curl pattern! 

        With Style Soufflé in your arsenal, creating the perfect Valentine's Day look will be a breeze! 


        Why We LOVE Opulent Volume Spray + Style Soufflé
        These powerful stylers will elevate your Valentine's Day glam by adding a touch of luxury. Grab one (or both!)  to add a touch of enchantment to this special day. Whether you’re going out with your partner, friends or staying in for a relaxing romantic comedy binge, our haircare products will have you looking and feeling your best.

From a classic French braid to a sophisticated chignon, updos and braids offer sophistication and charm. These styles are perfect for special occasions or even as a chic everyday look that exudes confidence and grace.
