Chic Copps 2009/10 feat,Randall Wong the Hue Master

Ask any painter, photographer or artist, and they’ll tell you that color is more than just something pretty to look at. Color is really a complex, fascinating, and beautiful combination of lights, reflections and pigment.
It may be used creatively by everyone, but in truth, there is some serious science behind how we use, view, and create color.

As professional Redken Certified Hair Colorists, The Met KL have used the knowledge of science, theory, and fashion, to create an incredible color collection entitled “Chic Copps 2009/10”.

“Chic Copps” is all about being modern, urban and approachable, and it does all this without going over the top by using the warm yet electrifying shades of copper. It is about creating dimension and depth, while maintaining a light softness, and works well with any hair style or texture.
And when it comes to the health of your hair, have no fear, because beauty doesn’t always have to have a price.

Redken Certified Hair Colorists are able to achieve amazing color without altering the integrity of the hair, thanks to exact and widely researched formulations and techniques. Your hair will literally gleam with health, and with “Chic Copps” being the choice of some of Malaysia’s top celebrities, you know you’ll be the envy of everyone.

“Chic Copps” shades vary from the luxurious, sophisticated cool of Chocolate Copper, to the warm inviting summery hues of Tangerine. They are all specially formulated by our colorists at The Met to suit different skin tones and personalities without the effect of brassiness.
So, to really achieve your crowning glory, head to The Met for your consultation today, and get the copper top you always dreamed of.

My recent trip to Taiwan with Redken Taiwan

23-29 Mar 2009

Being a person who is qualified and certified as a Professional Colorist has its advantages, the benefit of travelling. March 09 had been a busy month for me as I have spent 2 weeks in Melboune, a week with Redken Malaysia and another on my own at St.Kilda beach. After a week here in KL , I left for Taiwan with the invitation of Redken Taiwan to conduct two sessions of color seminars. 1 in Taipei and 1 in Kaoshiung. My clients has been screaming for me as they could not book me for color work in Mar. Dear clients, my apology.

It was my 3rd trip to Taiwan since 2008 but this time has brought me a whole new experience of what I thought about the city. At first it was like a giant Sg.Wang ,believe me, that was my first impression when I arrived there last year. I think it was partly due to the way the trip was organized. We made stops at street markets for food,street bazaar for clothes like our wholesale fashion street ala "Ho Cheng Yuen" (Kenanga area) and what I did was making my own Starbucks stops while waiting for the hairdressers to complete their shopping spree.

This recent trip was different, I had the opportunity to experience the regular city life.Bear with me, I grew up in KL therefore I do like city lifesyle most. After the two seminars, I had a few days off on own to enjoy Taipei. I went to California gym , more Starbucks and enjoy food at

great restaurants.The express train from the North to South ,Taipei to Kaoshiung was really impressive as it took only an hour and a half to arrive.It is similar to the bullet train in Japan.

Here is my obsevation about Taiwan, despite the popularity of many chinese celebs and singers who are well known globally and its own Channel V chinese music channel, I can't really find the whole city to be metropolitan. As a matter of fact KL has more high rise buildings, the one and only world famous landmark is Taipei 101 which is very similar to our KLCC. Office tower on top and shopping mall at the lower floors.Redken Taiwan(L'oreal as the whole company) is located here so I had the time to wander around the mall.

I might be going there in Sep 09 as there will be another show there so I hope I will have a new experience again.

Cheers,

Don't buy from Sg.Wang or any other stores which is not a hair salon!!

Yes, we are referring to retail products such as shampoo, conditioner and any other styling products that you may have seen elsewhere. This is called a "diversion". Products diverted from some salons who are out of greed and short term benefits and sell to other non-salon retail stores is called "diversion". Read more about it....

WHAT IS DIVERSION?

If you don't know the answer to this question - you're not alone. Nine out of ten consumers do not know what diversion is. But you probably have witnessed it.Diversion is when products are sold in "unauthorized" places. For example, all genuine Redken products are sold exclusively in salons. But you might come across a few bottles in your local supermarket, drugstore, online or at a discounter. Salon professional products you find outside of a salon are considered to be "diverted."

WHY DIVERSION IS BAD.

Diverted products can be counterfeit, diluted formulas, or old, expired formulas that may not be safe to use. Redken states on all its advertising, "Genuine Products Guaranteed Only In Salons." This means if you buy our products in a supermarket, drugstore or any other outlet other than a salon, we cannot guarantee that it is an authentic Redken product that will perform as tested.

ARE YOU IN DANGER?

You could be. Contaminated or counterfeit products could cause irritation or even infection.

WHO IS DIVERTING PRODUCTS?

Products are diverted by unauthorized distributors and salons or their employees, plus other dishonest individuals who see profit in piracy.

Unauthorized Sales Outlets:

Any Mass Retailer

Any Mass Discount

StoreDrugstore

Grocery Store

Online Purchases from non-L’Oreal Professional Salon Products Websites

Products Websites

Please purchase Redken products from salons that can offer you the best service and product recommendations for your hair. Only products purchased in a salon are guaranteed to perform to our standards.

Thank you for supporting our salon community.
