Hair from the Grammys 2015

Hair from the Grammys 2015

Here's a round up of my favourite styles from this years Grammys...

Firstly we have the beautiful Kim Kardashian-West, she's gone for a gorgeous mid-length choppy style.

This haircut has been one of my favourites for a while now. I find this length suits so many face shapes and life styles.  Depending on your hair texture it can be extremely low maintenance to style.






















Next up Iggy Azalea, this has had mixed reviews but i like it.(Maybe it's one for us strange creatives)

I think many people could use this style as a basis to work from, maybe having the plait slightly smaller and a messy bun to create more texture and a more wearable appearance.






I really love this cute style on Rita Ora, it's ultra feminine, great colour and the length isn't scarily short.

It's great for those office workers that like to tuck their hair behind their ears but still look styled.








Another cheeky little crop from Jennifer Hudson and boy has she done it well!

I love the long ruffled layers on top and the short sides keep it looking fierce!


The gorgeous raven colour keeps it looking uber glossy!





I hate to say it but this isn't my favourite Beyonce look.

She's kind of lost that sassy diva feel and gone back to the extensions.

Bring back the Beyonce bob, fun and fearless!









The most outrageous hair of the evening belongs to SIA and her mini me...

Not one for the faint hearted and i don't think many people will be re-creating this look. Although its fun we'd like to see more of that pretty face!

Warmer side of Blonde-Honey Blonde

Honey Blonde

A honey blonde is slightly richer and deeper than a golden blonde, it almost has a slight violet tone to neutralise some of the yellow but keep the warmth, in other words its a beautiful colour and suits most skin tones. 

Think Rosie Huntington Whitley, shinny and and a little deeper/darker at the root.


This look can either be achieved by highlights or a global application, its much softer than using bleach and gives amazing shine.








As soon as autumn appears we all need a little more of a glow!

Merry Christmas and Happy new Year!

Sorry i havnt posted lately been a very busy bee!

In January ill be posting ideas on how to re-invent your look and create a happy new you!

Warmer side to blonde- Creamy Yellow

Creamy Yellow

This may sound scary but catch your breath.... it's actually a really pretty soft tone.

When it comes to autumn everybody fancies a little more tone to their hair and this also includes blondes.

The perfect example of this is Kate Upton, you can keep the same shade of blonde but have your hairdresser introduce a few warmer more golden lowlights. It will help give your hair more shine especially if it has been over bleached. Maybe use a shine toner to balance out the porosity and give more tone all over.


This is a great tone to ease yourself in to a softer more glamourous world.

GHD Curve

GHD Curve

Yay the day has finally arrived.... we have the new GHD curve in salon.
















GHD curve is a new range with 4 different stylers,the creative wand, soft curl wand, classic tong and creative tong.Each of these stylers is capable of a few different looks, the creative editions especially. Wether your after the soft waves of Lana Del Ray or the beachy tousles of Blake Lively.... 

















They are all extremely user friendly, i'd say they are even easier than the stylers to use. Just wrap your hair around the wand or tong, either flat wrap or twist wrap for a softer look. 

 

All in all i love this new range, it gives us the stylist so much more creativity, the looks are endless.If the hair is fully prepped and good products are used, the curve is said to make your hair last as long as you do! The new TV advert will be released soon, keep those eyes peeled its a good-un!

They are each retailed at £110 each, call the salon to book your blow dry and get a cheeky lesson on how to use the new Curve!

Summer Bun

Summer Bun
The sun is trying its best to make a appearance, and its starting to get hot and humid, that means its time to find creative and easy updos. You cant beat a nice summery bun, heres a few ideas to get your juices flowing...

 Its a lot easier to put your hair up when its a little dirty, if its freshly washed put a product on to give it a little grime. To get the jessica type look curl all of your hair first, scrunch it in to a bun shape and hold in place with one hand, place kirby grips where your fingers sit then you should be able to take your hand away without it all falling down.Insert more kirby grips to hold it all in place.

I find hair ups look softer and more romantic when you pull tiny bits of hair out around your face. 
















Try not to pull everything to tight otherwise it will end up to regimented and put in place.

Try adding in little twists or plaits to add that little extra something, twisting your fringe away from your face is great when the temperature starts rising.
