Whats your prediction?
Feb 23, 2010

Each season the creative artists throughout the hair industry flex their muscles and design the next collection of haircuts to be worn by the models, the fashionista’s and finally the client.

It’s always an interesting question when I’m asked “whats your prediction for the next big hair trend” …yes its true we have seen some iconic hairstyles over the decades, more recently the likes of Jennifer Anniston and Victoria Beckham! As a hairdresser I for one am ecstatic this trend is coming to an end, finally the % of posh spice requests is in single digits and hopefully we will be seeing more precision and polished looks leaving our salons!

So what is the next prediction? Obviously depending on lifestyle and location not every client will be requesting a futuristic space age cut and colour but I definitely feel a change toward a more sculpted geometric shape, this can then … Read More

Spring Into Colour!
Feb 17, 2010

We have some fresh, fun and bold ideas that will put you right in the mood!!!

Fresh~

How about a hint of glow? Introduce a Colour Gloss to your hair. AVEDA’s Glossing treatments are 99% naturally derived. They are loaded with Jojoba Oil, Sunflower Oil & Green Tea extracts, best suitable for hair that’s lacking life. You will be shocked at the shine!

Sun Kissed hair is one of Hollywood’s obsessions, and one of my favorites for spring. This is a great way to get a new fresh coloured look, by creating natural highlights just a few shades lighter than your natural colour. This process adds dimension & movement to your fabulous haircut.

Feeling the Pinch?

As our economic climate continues to waver, at times we feel
the ‘pinch’ is on. Whether it is emotional, financial or physical, we
ask ourselves, ‘what’s important’? And if looking and feeling good
is one of your answers, you’re not alone. Lets face it; hair, skin and
make up are quintessential accessories. Small, inexpensive
changes make a world of difference. When we feel great, we
look better. Looking beautiful is more than just an exterior fix, it is
and internal journey.

5 Tips on looking and feeling your best: Beauty on a Budget

1. Your hair is your best accessory. Your hair-style is not a life-sentence. It is your god-given right to change it up. Look
through magazines, talk to your stylist and make one change
with your hair. Be it colour, cut or just styling it entirely
different. Make that change! This will renew and inspire … Read More

The Creative Team kicked off 2010 at a fast pace. In January, the design team predicts precision looks with a mixture of textures ~ You will see some “Geo” shapes (geometric) that will blow your socks off!

Above all the hair and make up for our spring and summer collection are “Bronzy & Hot”. February and March are filled with creative energy and change is in the air. I am off to an exciting ‘editorial’ class in New York with Aveda. From this class, we will be bringing new trends to our creative team for inspiration for our next photo shoot in April.

I would like to welcome our newest members to the creative team ~ Your inspiration boards and models were gorgeous! Well done. I know alot of hard work went into your presentations!
