Iconic Hairstyles Making a Comeback
Retro is the new modern in the world of hairstyles. The Doll House Salon sees the revival of iconic looks that have made striking comebacks. From the voluminous waves of the Hollywood Golden Age to the daring shag of the punk era, these styles are once again gracing salons and streets alike.
One timeless hairstyle is the big curls reminiscent of screen sirens like Marilyn Monroe. With the right products and techniques, the Doll House Salon can give you a glamorous look that combines nostalgia and contemporary flair.
The pixie cut, once made famous by the likes of Audrey Hepburn, is another hairstyle experiencing a major resurgence. It offers a blend of elegance and edginess that suits a variety of face shapes and hair textures.
Not to forget, the mullet, which has shaken off its controversial past, is now re-emerging with a modern twist. Celebrities and style icons are embracing this ‘business in the front, party in the back’ cut, showing clients that this retro style can indeed be made chic.
For those feeling adventurous, the crimped hair of the 80s is making surprise appearances. This textured style can add an element of fun to your look and is a conversation starter.
Lastly, the polished waves popularized in the 1920s by flappers are gaining momentum. These waves lend a touch of sophistication and are perfect for those looking to make a statement with their hair.
The Doll House Salon is your go-to for reinventing these classic looks with a current vibe, proving that what’s old can be new again.
Top Haircuts for Different Face Shapes
Finding the right haircut can transform your look, and at the Doll House Salon, we understand that each face shape has hairstyles that fit it best. Here are some of our top picks for different face shapes:
Round Face Shapes
For those with round faces, adding height on top can elongate your appearance. Think high-volume styles or layers that add structure. A long bob, or ‘lob’, can also be flattering, as it tends to slim the face.
Oval Face Shapes
Oval faces are versatile and can pull off most haircuts. A classic bob, beachy waves, or even a sleek straight cut can look stunning. It’s more about personal style with this face shape.
Square Face Shapes
If you have a square face, consider haircuts that soften your strong jawline. Curls or waves add softness, and side-parted styles or off-center bangs can help to balance your features.
Heart Face Shapes
Heart-shaped faces often have a broader forehead. To balance this, try styles with volume around the jawline and chin, like waves or curls starting below the ear. Side-swept bangs can also draw attention downward, creating a more balanced look.
Diamond Face Shapes
Diamond-shaped faces can showcase their cheekbones with hairstyles that add width at the forehead and chin. Consider a fringe or bangs, and textured layers to enhance your bone structure.
At Doll House Salon, we tailor each cut to enhance your unique face shape, ensuring you leave looking and feeling your best.
Color Trends and Techniques to Watch
At the Doll House Salon, we’re always eyeing the latest in hair color trends. Here’s a rundown of what’s hot right now:
Balayage
Balayage remains a top request, offering a natural, sun-kissed look. This technique involves hand-painting highlights for a soft grow-out period.
Root Smudging
Root smudging is gaining traction as it creates a seamless transition from your natural hair color to your dyed hair. It’s perfect for a low-maintenance style.
Bright and Bold Colors
Bright blues, pinks, and purples are making waves among the bold and adventurous. These vibrant hues add a pop of personality to any style.
Pastel Shades
Pastel colors like soft pinks, lavenders, and peaches offer a subtle yet chic way to play with color. They work well with lighter hair bases.
Color Melting
Color melting is a technique that blends highlights with the base hair color. The result is a smooth, melted color effect from roots to tips.
Gray Blending
Embracing the gray doesn’t mean going fully silver. Gray blending incorporates natural gray into the color scheme for a sophisticated look.
Remember, keeping up with trends is great, but ensuring the health of your hair comes first. At the Doll House Salon, we make sure to use high-quality products for all our coloring services. Whatever your style, we’re here to make it come alive with color!

Styling Tips for Maintaining Salon-Like Hair at Home
Achieving and maintaining salon-quality hair at home can be simple with the right techniques and tools. Here are some essential styling tips that can help you look as if you just stepped out of Doll House Salon every day.
Use the Right Shampoo and Conditioner
Select products that suit your hair type—whether it’s curly, straight, colored, or treated. Regular usage can mimic the deep-clean and nourishment you get at a salon.
Limit Heat Styling
Too much heat can damage your hair. Try to air dry as often as possible. Use heat protectant sprays when you do style with heat.
Regular Trims
Cutting your hair every 6-8 weeks removes split ends and keeps your hair healthy and fresh.
Cooling Finishes
After blow-drying, use the cool setting on your dryer. This will close the hair cuticles and enhance shine.
Use Silk Pillowcases
Sleeping on silk reduces hair breakage caused by friction with cotton. Your hair stays smoother and healthier.
Weekly Treatments
Apply a hair mask or oil treatment weekly. This restores moisture and repairs damage, akin to salon conditioning services.
Maintaining your hair with these tips will extend the fresh look of your haircut and color, making every day a good hair day.
Wedding and Event Hair Inspiration
Special events like weddings call for extraordinary hairstyles. At the Doll House Salon, we see brides and event-goers seeking looks that stand out. Here’s some inspiration for when you need to turn heads at your next big event.
Romantic Updos
For a touch of elegance, consider a romantic updo. Twisted chignons, loose braids, or soft buns can add a fairytale quality to your look. They are perfect for showcasing necklines and jewelry.
Classic Hollywood Glamour
Old Hollywood waves provide instant glam. Think smooth, deep waves that frame the face. They’re ideal for black-tie events and add a timeless allure.
Boho Chic Braids
Boho chic is always in. Braids such as fishtails, waterfall, or crown styles offer a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe. They suit outdoor or daytime events well.
Sleek Ponytails
A sleek ponytail can be a chic choice. It’s versatile and can range from high and dramatic to low and elegant. This style keeps your hair orderly through long events.
Textured Curls
For a lively look, go for textured curls. Curls add body and movement, which work well for dancing the night away.
Whatever event you’re heading to, the Doll House Salon has the skills to craft the perfect hairstyle for you. We ensure that your hair will be as memorable as the occasion itself.
