The Shift to Organic Color in Orange County, California

BOOK ONLINE NOW
For the last 30 years I have been a stylist and colorist in Orange County, California. In that time, I have seen many beauty products and color lines rise and fall in popularity, which gave me the opportunity to try many things. I would never want to bash any of the other products I have used. In fact, I was extremely satisfied with many of these products for years, being a loyal user and salesperson caused my client-base to grow with happy, satisfied clients. However, being always ready to try out the new technologies in hair color and products, I never stopped experimenting when new ideas came forth. But, nothing prepared me for the paradigm shift that occurred when I began using Organic Color.
The Organic Color Systems have allowed me to work in an environment with no fumes, which allows me to do color applications on those that may reject ordinary color lines, such as pregnant women, children and people with allergies to chemicals. But the "green" reasons are just the beginning. My clients are more satisfied with the lasting color, calling me to extend their appointments for two more weeks because the color still looks great. The satisfaction of my clients os my number one goal and Organic Hair Color helps me to achieve this goal.

My very best hair do!
by Gina Jonas

I can only begin to say how much I appreciate Martin at OOh la la salon! I have fine straight hair and I've searched for - literally - years to find a way to wear it that looks professional yet sassy. Martin works with hair care products that protect my fine hair and makes it look healthy and full. He also cuts and styles it in a way that my hair that is in keeping with what my hair WANTS to do! It is always easy to take care of and I can style it quickly. I constantly get compliments on my hair - sometimes from total strangers! Martin - thank you - you are the best! Gina Jonas

Martin is THE best hairstylist in the universe

Martin has been doing my hair for 9 years now. I was hesitant to switch hairdressers when my previous stylist moved out of state. Like many people, I am very sensitive about having my hair done. I was so glad to find Martin. After my first appointment I was so impressed with his knowledge and expertise that I immediately felt secure trusting my tresses to his care. Over the years he has always amazed me with the way he matches my features and coloring to the perfect cut and color. I have been through short and long styles, curly, straight and wavy. I have had many shades of red, brunette and even black hair colors. In fact he took my hair from black to light auburn in one short visit with no damage. Martin gives me the ability to have fun with my hair without the worry over damage. He should be called a magician instead of a hairdresser!
1 Pros: Very knowledgeable, Organic Hair Color

Martin does an amazing job. Hair is always done perfectly and never have to wait when I have an appt. I have been in a bind to get my hair done and Martin accommodated me at 4:00am before my flight.
The salon is very clean and everyone is friendly. Not pushy on the product sales.

Martin has been my Stylist for 10+ years. He has taken me through all my phases: mediumlength hair to wild, flowing, long chili-red tresses! Now, I just sit back, relax and let Martin do his magic AND KNOW it will be perfect - EVERY SINGLE TIME!! So much so - I have refered at least 30 people to him - maybe more. And they have told friends too!!
I can always count on him to make look and feel beautiful. Honestly, once you've gone to Martin, anyone else would be a step down.
1 Pros: Best Colorist In The OC!!

By subita b. martin rodriguez
I met Martin in 2003 and have been only going to him ever since. He is the first stylist that i have met that is so confident in his work. He works with each individual type of hair and not with what is "in" and is absolutely honest with you. His work with color is always amazing that compliment flow right after you leave the salon. He will accommodate you almost anytime (even at crack of dawn) if you need him. I can't detach from him.
Rebecca Longtime Customer  5
By Rebecca B. Martin Rodriguez
Martin is one of the most progressive stylist/colorist's I have ever known! He is always up to date with the newest products and hairstyles in the Industry! He networks with a multitude of industry specialists from hairstylists to product manufacturers; puts on classes for other salons to promote products that excel and introduces other stylists to the great products he finds. I have been a customer of his for a least a decade and he makes sure that I am happy with not only my color(very important to me) but also the newest styles. Please take a moment to look at the importance of the organic products that he uses...especially for those who might have chemical sensitivity. I personally do not, but I can tell you I appreciate the lack of strong chemical smells while having my hair done! Do your hair and yourself a favor! Call Martin and you will be the happiest advertisement for his wonderful techniques ever!
Martin is the best  5
By Danielle R. martin rodriguez
Martin is the very best. Hair is always done perfectly, the organic color lasts 2 weeks longer than the competitive products, and I've never been disappointed in the service.
Martin is very honest on the styles I can pull off with my hair type and he always accommodates my hectic schedule. Never have to wait on my appts and Martin never double books me with other clients.
You won't be disappointed if you go to Martin!

Fabulous hairstylist!
by martinrodriguez at Citysearch
"Martin has been doing my hair for more than a decade now and I am just as thrilled with him as my stylist now as i was when he first started doing my hair. My cuts are always perfect - current, easy for me to maintain, and frames my face perfectly. The color couldn't be more perfect! He is by far the best colorist. I frequently get compliments on my cut and style, but ALWAYS get compliments on the color. If you ever want on overall experience you must visit Martin...did I mention I drive 90 miles roundtrip to see him - he's worth it!"

Color Trends Trough time

Tue, 17 Feb 2009 18:15:38 -0800

In my thirty years of experience doing hair, I have seen numerous trends in both the application of color products as well as cuts and styling. Many of these trends that I have seen are borrowing from other eras, decades or even centuries in the past. The 80’s for example, have always reminded me of the Victorian Era. Both of these time periods were characterized by styles that strived to look unnatural. Colors and styles revealed the effort of curling, pinning, coloring and teasing the hair. In the Victorian Era many women used an array of wigs, while hair in the 80’s often looked like wigs.
I have always felt that these styles in both time periods sought to say something profound about the person, that they were privileged enough to spend time and money on their hair.
In contrast, the Grunge Movement of the late 80’s and early 90’s bucked this idea of coiffed hair altogether. In this subculture it seemed that nobody wanted to look like they brushed their hair, let alone had it styled. The only connection I have made to this movement, is perhaps the peasants of yesteryear. the only difference being that those who subscribed to Grunge, did it by choice, perhaps as a message of rebellion against the mainstream culture.
Since the mid-90’s, there has been a trend towards more natural-looking hair color and style. Although some groups still touch upon the idea of outrageous cuts and colors, most people prefer to have their hair colored and styled to look natural. People want to look as if their hair is naturally smooth or curly with vibrant shine and beautiful color.
Instead of looking as if we are socially privileged enough to spend time and money on our hair, instead we want to look genetically privileged. We want to give the illusion of health and youth through our hair.
I believe that this trend towards more natural color goes hand-in-hand with the Green Movement going mainstream. I have seen the proof of this in my clients’ interest in Organic color.
I first offered the Organic color line as an alternative to conventional color but quickly chose it as my only color line when all of my clients switched to Organic.
Lately, I have noticed a reemergence of the famous Vidal Sasoon Bob as well as the Pixie Cut. I can’t propose what this means to the culture at large, but it will be interesting to see what these styles say about the era we currently live in.
