In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Lola

September 17, 2023

Kids grow up fast enough as it is, in my humble opinion. So, I’ve never been fond of the American pageant ideal of getting ten-year-olds to look like Dolly Parton. But what style for a thirteen-year-old? It's a difficult age for girls, the 13-17 stage, as they mature quickly and...

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Emily

September 09, 2023

Emily had relied on extensions for thicker and longer hair. She’d taken them out just before visiting me, and as is often the case, they'd put a strain on her own hair which was quite broken and depleted. Emily’s hair was thick and healthy enough at the roots to grow long if it was cared for properly, but now the ends

Is your hair drowning you? Einstein told us that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one form to another. Friction energy into heat energy, heat into light, light into electricity, us into daisies eventually etc. it’s endlessly morphing into something else but the amount of matter/energy in the Universe is finite.

People with curly hair suffer more with frizz. It’s the nature of the texture, but what many people don’t realise is how frizziness can be exaggerated by the haircut and the drying process. Shelf-like step layers make frizz much worse as...

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Tara

July 15, 2023

I love long hair. But sometimes you can have too much of a good thing, and if it’s not cut properly it can drown the wearer and make shampoo-days a dreaded event. Tara had gorgeous hair but the haircut had no shape. Just the usual...

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Fringes

July 01, 2023

Some clients have never had a fringe and yet others wouldn't be without one. But most people like to experiment and fringes can make a dramatic difference to your look, whether long 'curtains-bangs' or all the way up to 'suicide-fringe'.

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Rosie

June 24, 2023

Sometimes a more dramatic change is called for and Rosie was clearly in the mood for something different.

Some days she thought about a very short crop but I thought that was a look we could ease towards gradually. We could start today with a short transformation into a sassy, chic, shorter layered

What do you have to do to get noticed? Rubi had a clear idea what she wanted. A crisper looking Bob. But when Rubi posted a reel on Instagram and a lot of the comments said they saw no difference.

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair - Kazz - Visit 3

June 17, 2023

We imagined a 12-month recovery program to get Kazz’s terribly destroyed hair back to health. But the combination of Kazz’s disciplined application of LifeSaver Treatments and her willingness to finally go a little shorter has brought that forward to...

In the Chair - Real People Real Hair Disaster - Sonam

June 10, 2023

This is the most common mistake I see in hairdressing. It’s a simplistic one-length Bob with another Bob hacked out 4 or 5 inches up. Absurd? Yes! But...
