Hairstyles for a Bad Hair Day

Hopefully this article is being read in a preventative manner, but every lady knows eventually you will have a bad hair day. Maybe your hair is in that funky grow out stage between short and mid-length, you have too many grays, greasy hair, a naturalista with crunchy frizzy curls, or a relaxed lady with too much new growth, or a combination of several-- the point is your hair is NOT the business! Well, Gathered Lady Bree to the rescue!  

This past friday, I was in hair hell myself. My curls were wack (dry, undefined in the front, mashed flat in the back, dull, and insanely frizzy and super big). I had almost no time to get out of the house and a wash and go wasn't a viable option! Here's my favorite style saves for bad hair days!

Hair Problem: "My Hair is SHOULD NOT be seen by human eyes"

Solutions: Hair Turban, Wigs

 

Hair Problem: "My roots look horrible". "My Hair is too greasy". "I have too many grays".

Solutions: - French Braid - High Bun with decoraitve head band - Thin Scarf/Hair Tie - Deep Side Part ponytail

 

Hair Problem: "My ends are frayed and damaged." "My Hair is overprocessed and dry" "I am a transitioning natural and I have two textures". "My roots are puffy but the rest of my hair is straight"

Solutions: - French Braid/Twisted Hairline with Bun in back - Humped hair in front with french braid or bun in back  -50's pin-up bangs with bun in back

A Gathered Event: Loop Salon Launch in ATL 

Happy Friday Fashionistas! Today we've got the scoop on the gathered event of the weekend for our ATLiens... it's all about Loop Salon and their grand opening on Sunday, baby, with events from 2-6 pm. Thanks to gathered lady Queen Aftan for being on the scene for the pre-party mixer for the scoop and pics of gathered fashion! This looks like the hottest place to nourish and nurture those locks (or locs), no matter what style you're rocking. 

Combining the luxury and sophistication of a full -service salon with the
eclectic edge and modernity of one of Atlanta’s hippest, health-conscious neighborhoods, the 
Loop Salon is opening their doors in the heart of Atlanta.  The Loop Salon provides its 
signature “full circle” holistic beauty experience in an intimate loft style  environment. 
Located on the charming tree-lined street of Ponce De Leon Avenue, Loop Salon bases 
their design on a circular feng shui. The unique open layout boasts high ceilings with vintage 
furnishings set against exposed surfaces and seamlessly manages to infuse eco- friendly 
practices into the overall aesthetic.
Loop Salon is a multi-textural hair salon, which caters to the hair care needs of the modern-day, 
stylish, working woman, with an emphasis on best practices for care, styling, and maintenance 
of all hair types. Loop Salon joins a neighborhood of retailers that embrace a holistic lifestyle 
approach, including Whole Foods and the all new Ponce City Market.  The salon will carry 
highly coveted brands such as Phyto and Ouidad, and employs an all encompassing style 
team able to cater to the needs of all hair types, textures and preferences. Services will include 
styling, haircuts, color, blowouts, manicures, pedicures, and grooming. To add to this salon’s 
list of features, Loop Salon is the only Quidad certified salon within the Atlanta perimeter.
