Bumble & Bumble ConcenSTRAIGHT Line

Haircut 101 is happy to report we are now offering the Bumble & Bumble ConcenSTRAIGHT product line, including a long-lasting Pro Smoothing Treatment as well as a shampoo, conditioner, and straight blow out balm. 

Bumble's breakthrough Pro smoothing treatment is formaldehyde, cysteine, and lye free making this product gentle and non-damaging to the hair.  The treatment is an in-salon service and will straighten, smooth, and soften hair for up to 30 shampoos.

With the new ConcenSTRAIGHT technology, results are customizable

To help maintain the Pro Smoothing Treatment, Bumble offers their first sulfate-free cleanser and light condition to create a smoother, silkier texture straight out of the shower adding shine & encouraging body and movement. This product is adequate for any hair type: curly, thick, frizzy, or just utterly unruly and unmanageable and is also safe on color treated hair.

To complete the smooth look, Bumble created Straight Blow Dry. This lightweight, heat-activated styling balm promotes straight, smooth, healthy-looking hair from shampoo to shampoo. ConcenSTRAIGHT technology helps maintain the results of the Pro Smoothing Treatment.

Our stylists at Haircut 101 received hands-on training with the new Pro Smoothing Treatment.

Bumble and Bumble

Bumble and Bumble is Haircut 101's exclusive hair care product.  We pride ourselves on carrying this prestigious line of shampoos, conditioners, foundations, styling products and finishing tools.  We started carrying the line about 9 years ago and haven't turned back since.  Every year, our stylists go to NYC for training at the Bb. Downtown Salon, for cutting, color, and even business classes.  Here is a little bit about the company and why we, as hairdressers love this stuff!!

Michael Gordon opened Bumble and Bumble, the salon, in 1977 in NYC on Hairdressers row.  Bb. was a no name salon and Michael Gordon was a no name stylist.  The name "Bumble and Bumble" raised eyebrows and the industry started to take notice of this.  It was only within a year that Bumble and Bumble was voted one of American Vogue's Top 10 Salons in NYC.  This was the beginning of Bumble's legacy of amazing hairdressers.  In 1988, Howard McLaren joined Bumble and brought the fascination for the straight razor, and developed a signature cutting style. 

In 1990, because of frustration with mediocre product lines, Bumble develops Brilliantine, their first product.  Throughout the rest of the nineties, Bb. develops a killer product line, networks across the nation and graces the covers of every fashion magazine in the world.  In the new millennium, Bb. launches Surf Spray.  Bb. U is opened in 2004 with 8 floors including, the salon floor, the cafe, education rooms, library, and the offices of all the employees, including the CEO of Bumble, Peter Lichtenthal.

In the past several years, Bb. has launched several new lines and just recently launched a professional straightening system.  Concen-Straight Pro Treatment is free of formaldehyde, cystine and lye.  There is also a take home system for the straightener, including a shampoo, conditioner and Straight Blow-dry.

At Haircut 101, we love Bumble and Bumble, maybe even a little too much.  But we stand by it, for sure...and you better believe that our staff has tried every product at least once.  In the next few weeks, we will be posting our favorites and how to use these amazing products.  If you have a favorite Bb. product, please let us know.  We would love to hear it!
