You Know It Is A Nemacolin Holiday When...

You know it is a Nemacolin holiday when... you walk through our Chateau Lafayette Lobby and are greeted by the sweet smell and whimsical charm of our Gingerbread display. The Lobby's Gingerbread display is a Nemacolin tradition that gathers our guests each year. With over 100 hours of labor our display includes a sweet tooth's dream. Plus, it is the details that make people come back, because each time you look at it, you see something new.

Hair Care Tips From Our Spa Experts

Don't stress out it is normal... we can lose over 100 hairs a day. If you use hair spray, gel, root boost, ect. those hairs may not fall out until you shampoo and that bond is broken. So until there is a small cat gathering in the shower drain or a patch of missing hair, do not worry it is completely normal.

Growing out your hair? Keep up on your trims, every 6 weeks is the average! Most women, when growing out their hair, skip trims so they can add length, but what happens when you try to stretch a cut is the everyday styling and shampooing cause the ends to dry and split causing your stylist to remove more inches. So keep up on your trims and length will come even faster.

Shampooing... WE DO NOT NEED DAILY SHAMPOOING! If you are a daily "shampooer" you probably shampoo because your hair looks "greasy." Take this challenge: let your hair go for the weekend, don't shampoo from Friday till Monday. On Monday shampoo and condition then skip Tuesday, wash Wednesday. Then continue to wash every other day. Your scalp is just like your skin, the more oil you remove (shampooing) the more oil you will produce. Think of the time you will save in the mornings. This will also help your color to last longer, because water and shampoo speed the fading process.
