The New Year is here and time to tame those out of control locks. Ouidad is here to help you create luxurious, shiny and manageable curls. Susanne Palmacci is a Certified Quidad Hair Cutter at Roffi Salon and Day Spa in Boston and was trained at the Quidad flagship salon in New York City. She had participated in Ouidad workshops in Orlando, New York City and Boston.

The Quidad method of cutting curly hair is unique and is specialized for curly hair only. Their method of “carving and slicing the hair” specifically creates a shape for your individual needs. During your consultation, the hair is first analyzed to determine which Ouidad product line would best suit your needs. The use of these products goes hand in hand with the haircut and the final results of your hair’s overall condition.

As the consultation continues, an overall length is determined; then with the help of your certified Quidad hair cutter the areas of the hair that need to be “debulked” to reduce the volume are determined and also where the slicing of the outer layers will be done to eliminate the “triangular” look and create a shape. After that, a Water Works Clarifying Shampoo is given and then the specific shampoo and conditioner recommended for your hair is used.

Once the cut is finished, the famous “Rake and Shake” method of distributing the Ouidad gel finishing product is applied. All of the Quidad product lines are water soluble and leave the hair shiny, defined, manageable and “frizz free” without any heaviness. The Climate Control line is great for coarse, thick curls; the Playcurl line is fantastic for fine hair and some new products such as Define and Shine combines gel and cream to deliver all the control with a slightly softer end result.

Feel free to call for a consultation to help you decide which product line will work for you and how we can get you started on having healthy and happy curly hair.
