How to achieve a long lasting, healthy blonde 🤍

This client comes in to the salon every 6 weeks - this is how we have maintained her long, healthy hair whilst keeping a bright blonde. Some people may think that having their hair coloured more often will mean more damage, but this isn't always the case. By coming in regularly, only your roots will need coloured, this results in less damage to the rest of the hair.

Do you have a naturally darker base, but would like to go lighter?🤎

Obviously due to natural tones it would be unrealistic to create a bright blonde, but what we can do is create a beautiful light caramel shade to add some new tones and brightness into your hair. This is what we done here, finished with a bouncy blowdry.

We LOVE big hair extension transformations! 😇

This look on Levi was created with Beauty Works 20" Weave in the shade Sorrento. We also used Beauty Works 20" tapes in the shade Melrose around the sides. The results were this beautiful, voluminous bronde!

Let's talk you through how we achieved this beautiful bright copper.. 🔥

Our client came in looking to make her copper more vibrant, to do this we had to cleanse out her previous colour to prevent banding (this is a build up of colour which can create an uneven look). We then went in with an all over colour which created this gorgeous result - sometimes, getting the end look can take time, but it's always worth it!

Sunday, April 21, 2024

Why should you opt for a full head of fine highlights? 🙌

Fine highlights add depth and dimension to your hair, creative a natural multi-tonal look. By taking fine sections, we can give you a subtle transition between colours - this means your overall look is seamless and blended. They will brighten your hair appearance, but won't grow out harsh, so you can wait longer between appointments!

All hair deserves the luxury treatment 💫

The Emmie Hair Effect 🤩

We have had so many clients coming in recently wanting to darken their blonde! This inspired our very own Shannon to go darker, for a trendy, low-maintenance look. We did a root melt, which was dragged through some of her ends. We used very few foils to brighten up around her face. This look is perfect for those of you who are nervous to go darker, as it can easily be brightened back up with a little foilage.

A natural red head ❤️‍🔥

Our client came to us nervous about colouring her natural red hair. We decided to go for something subtle, that would still make her look like a red head. This colour can be done as little or as often as she likes! We used some fine highlights around her face and through the parting, but kept her gorgeous red tones through her lengths and ends.

Thursday, December 21, 2023

Lived In Locks ✨

For this gorgeous sandy beige look, ask your stylist for a t-section of micro highlights. This will create a gorgeous, blended look that requires very little maintenance and will not have harsh regrowth!

Winter Hair Care Tips ❄️

1. Hydration is key! Drink plenty of water to ensure your hair gets the moisture it needs to stay healthy and shiny. 2. Use a Professional Moisturising Shampoo and Conditioner to combat the drying effects of winter. Look for products with natural oils and hydrating ingredients to lock in moisture and keep your hair silky smooth. 3. Limit heated styling. Excessive heat can contribute to dryness and damage. 4. Treat your hair to a weekly deep conditioning treatment.

Toner is MAGIC ✨

Would you believe all that was used here was toner?! Olivia is one of our regular clients, who occasioanlly comes in inbetween appointments for a toner.

Olivias highlights haven't been done since May, but this toner has made her hair look brand new!

Friday, July 14, 2023

Healthy hair is a result of consistency! 🙌

This involves - Taking care of your scalp health • Heat protectant EVERY SINGLE TIME! • Avoiding low quality products • Brushing daily • Using professional products • Regular appointments with your stylist.

Finger coils are a type of curl achieved by wrapping your hair around your finger. The end result is tight, bouncy coils. They are full of volume, and enhance the definition in your curls.

Brenda's hair journey 💛

Brenda came into the salon 18 months ago with years worth of box dye build up. She was unhappy with the colour but thought going blonde would be an impossible task. Over the last year and a half, we have gradually lightened Brenda's hair whilst keeping the condition our top priority. Brenda said, "I can honestly say my hair has never looked better, it looks and feels healthier than ever!." No matter how unachievable you think your end goal may be, we will get you there!

Friday, June 23, 2023

All the caramel tones 🍯

I love the mix of different shades in this look.

Friday, June 23, 2023

Colour does NOT take better to dirty hair ❌

Have you ever been told that colour takes better to dirty hair? This is a myth! In fact, dirty hair means oils. These oils act as a barrier and can prevent you from getting 100% grey hair coverage.

Just like fashion, hair trends are always changing! ✨

Recently, we have seen a lot of clients preferences change from a chunky face frame into a finer, more subtle look. This method gives you the brightness of a blonde, with the low maintenance of a brunette. We are loving softer, more natural looks this Summer!

Keeping your hair hydrated in Summer is KEY!! 💦

Dry, brittle hair is prone to breakage! To prevent your hair from drying out in warmer temperatures, aim to use a mask 1-2 times a week instead of your normal conditioner.
