Though a salon might not be the first place you think of for holiday shopping, Parker can help you cross a couple of friends & family off your list (with the benefit of shopping small!). We carry an assortment of hair and bath & beauty brands to help you look and feel your best!

Our latest brand partnership, Mizani, has all of our texture Godesses covered this holiday with their retro-inspired holiday gift sets. Mizani is known worldwide as the leader in texture hair care. So show yourself (or someone special) some #texturelove this holiday season.

Redken has also released fantastic gift sets for the holidays! Their products have a cult following and are the perfect gift for a secret Santa, or the person that has everything. Who wouldn’t want the gift of great hair?

Our Farmhouse Fresh products are perfect stocking stuffers. From bath bombs to lip balms, you can feel good about giving Farmhouse Fresh. They offer both certified organic and natural, clean beauty options that contain up to 100% naturally derived ingredients (some that they’ve even grown and harvested on their own). They’re also proudly made in the USA!

As the leaves change color and the air becomes crisp, it's evident that fall has arrived. Along with cozy sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes, the fall season brings unique challenges and opportunities for your hair. The fluctuating temperatures, humidity, and seasonal activities can all affect the health and appearance of your locks. But fear not, we've got you covered with some hot hair tips to ensure your mane looks fabulous throughout the fall season. Whether you're trick-or-treating or enjoying autumn festivities, these tips will keep your hair looking treat-worthy.

Hydration is Key

As the weather cools down, your hair may become more prone to dryness and breakage. To combat this, make sure you're drinking plenty of water and using a hydrating shampoo and conditioner. Parker recommends the Hydration Line of Products from Pureology. A sulfate-free shampoo emulsifies into a rich lather to replenish dry hair while an ultra-creamy conditioner nourishes to add softness and shine. Perfect for all hair types that crave hydration - from coiled to straight.

As the end of summer approaches, many of us find ourselves dealing with hair that has been exposed to sun, saltwater, chlorine, and humidity. All these elements can take a toll on our locks, leaving them dry, damaged, and lifeless. However, don't fret! With a little extra care and the right tips, you can revive your end-of-summer hair and restore its natural shine and vitality.

Trim Away the Damage

The first step in reviving your hair is to get rid of the damaged ends. Frequent exposure to the sun and other environmental factors can cause split ends and breakage. A hair cut will not only remove the damaged parts but also encourage healthier hair growth. Your Parker stylist will discuss the length you're comfortable with, and take care of the rest.

Deep Conditioning Treatment

Deep conditioning is a must for end-of-summer hair revival. Enjoy an in-salon treatment such as Pureology's Hydrate Superfood Deep Treatment Mask, made with key ingredients Avocado Oil and Coconut Oil. Take home your own and apply the treatment once a week, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be sure to let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the ingredients to penetrate and repair any damage.

Spring is on its way, and if you are like us - you are really looking forward to a change this year. One of the best ways to change up your hair color is to invest in highlights. Think about it: you don’t have to deal with the commitment that comes with a full head of new, permanent color; and the maintenance can be so much easier. There is no better way to get a lived-in, sun-kissed look!

Of course, highlights can be executed in a myriad of ways, and if you’ve done any research or scanned Instagram looking for inspiration pictures, you’ve probably seen the phrases “foil highlights, balayage, foilayage, ombré and hand painted." With so many types of highlights out there - its impossible to figure them out on your own.

Enter the professionals at Parker on Main and our new "Custom Highlight Package." We want to take the guesswork out of your next highlight appointment, while customizing a look that may require several different techniques. Custom highlights are our specialty here at Parker, and instead of having a confusing, extensive color menu with varying prices that frankly don't make any sense, we offer a beautiful experience that will allow you and your stylist to collaborate on the perfect look!
