What has your month in January been like? Send me your links below so i can take a peek!

A fine blend

Just dip dyed my friend Laura's hair. Being a fussy hairdresser its taken a long thought process to work out the best technique in dip dyeing and im so happy with how this has turned out! Rather than doing the same depth of lightness all the way through I blended it with different strengths and lightener. This way you achieve more golden through mid lengths and a brighter blonde though the ends! I think at a later date we can go even blonder but due to colour build up on the ends it was an effort to lift! Also it's cool having a gradual change- keeps it
More interesting ! I like to take my clients on a journey rather then taking them straight to the destination!

Brown&long to red&ravishing

I love my job and it never gets repetitive, around 1/2 my clients like similar styles which is great but it's also so rewarding when you can really change someone's appearance. I was so excited today when my client popped in today and requested a red bob:) I coloured it with L'oreal INOA range- an ammonia free hair colorant which is much kinder to the hair but still gives a great shine a vibrance!

Just thought I'd add a few from the lovely weather this week

I Definately picked the right week to take a break and escape to center parcs , seems as if it's been so hectic on the outside with people getting to work etc. But it's a winter wonderland here and like Christmas all over again:):) Dreading going back to work after this!

Something new

So I thought I'd trade my bleachy blonde locks for the golden dip-dyed effect! It's still going strong and I predict (and hope) it sticks around for a bit longer! I have so many dark haired clients who want me achieve the dip-dyed effect and I have to say its so much easier when your already blonde! I use L'oreal products and this was a semi permanent 8.34 (8= light blond 3= gold 4=copper) a perfect mix for a natural warm shade! I applied to the roots and mid lengths then whacked some conditioner on the ends! Try it out or come to me :) The Pavilion , Norwich or Zu Hair, Pakefield :)

Wandering

I try to get down to london as much as I can because for me it's where new ideas are born. My partner in crime and I traipsed brick lane, Cheshire street, red church street, shore ditch high street and leonard street for treasure! Unfortunately most of the stores were closed due to new year! Found a scrumptious deli/restaurant called The Albion I want to eat everything! Also a new vintage shop that opened up just off Brick Lane called Blitz - pop in for a cuppa and homemade brownie!

Please comment, and let me know what you think of my blog:) 

Christmas blues

It's a little bit late but I hope we all enjoyed Christmas!! A few little pics here from sparkly December

For those of you who aren't in the hairdressing industry, the Vidal Sassoon brand is one of the most iconic brands of hairdressing today. Their looks always push the boundaries but still keep their taste!
This is Mark Hayes British Hairdressing Award collection which I spotted the other day. A mixture of geometric lines, grungy texture and punk culture.

Year '12 was an excellent year
