Summer is over and everyone has either already chopped their overgrown locks and touched up their roots or are desperately waiting too. But we sense rebellious crops coming on this Autumn 2020.

Lets take a look at the most predicted hair trends for Autumn, the Bob & the Fringe!

 

The Shaggy Fringe

This 70’s shaggy hair look is gorgeous and perfect for long and short hair. The multiple layers make this easy and effortless to pull off. Pair with our L’Oreal Savage Panache Texturising Powder Spray.

 

The Grown Out Bangs

A heavier fringe that doesn’t overwhelm the face, the wispy touch softens the bluntness of the bob. Autumn is going to be all about the Blunt Bob!

The Curtain Fringe

This bold fringe will really come into its own this Autumn. Great with long and short hair, we suggest going for a blow dry to make the most of this style!

 

The Messy Bangs

Tapering some shorter layers to frame the face like this tousled look is very Gigi Hadid/Hailey Bieber and will definitely come into its own this autumn.

Here are our top Autumn hair tips!

#1 – Keep your hair moisturised.

We recommend you use a leave-in conditioner during the cooler months, to lock in the moisture, especially for windy days. You can also rinse your conditioner out with a blast of cold water to seal the cuticles. You can also add a hair serum to your hair routine, and also use a hair mask once a week!

#2 – Book regular trims

Your hair will be a little frazzled after a Summer of sun and heat, so it’s good to book your next trim and get your hair ends looking great. You can also use a clarifying shampoo to remove buildup that will have occured.

 #3 – Make sure your diet is helping your hair too.

Eat lots of foods like nuts and seeds, eggs, yoghurt, and chicken, plus salmon will give your hair shine.

Do you have any other tips? Post them on our Facebook page!

 

We are heading into the more cooler months, and what better time to change up your hair? But instead of just switching from a lighter colour to a darker one, why not try a trend? Add a half head’s worth of highlights, or do a Full Head tint!

We have highlighted our favourite trends going into Winter and thought you might enjoy them too!

1. Blunt Bob

We called this months ago, and now the trend is fully in sight. A blunt bob conveys elegant, shiny hair that looks expertly done. Why not speak to one of our stylists to get a recommendation on a straightener that achieves this look?

2. Bedazzled Hair Pins

This trend is PERFECT for Christmas parties and events. It is low maintenance but gives a sense of ‘done’ hair. We love that you can use shapes and words to send a message – and we have seen a few brides wearing them too!

3. Space Buns

For when you want to be practical, yet fun, space buns are a fun way to be playful with your hair. You can go for the full 90s look and have tendrils down at the front, or wear scrunchies! We dare you to try this fun trend.

What’s your favourite trend so far this year?

We love being a part of your child’s first haircut!

We know your little one can find it hard to sit still sometimes or feel uncomfortable with unfamiliar settings so we have compiled a list on what can be done to make this experience fun for everyone!

1. Deal with the sensitivities. Start by allowing your child to recognise their sensitivities. Give them words to identify their feelings, and let them know you notice and acknowledge their discomfort.

2. A visit to the salon. How about simply visiting the salon before the first appointment? You could ask the stylist to just comb their hair or give a partial trim. You could also schedule the appointment for a time of day when your child will be less tired or hungry.

3. Go shopping together. Take your child to the store with you and let them pick out their favourite hairbrush, shirt to wear as a cape and their favourite hair grooming products. It will help them calm down and decrease frustration.

4. Put on some music. Or in this case… their headphones. Not only do they block the noise, but they can also take the edge off of their anxiety. They can wear the headphones “upside-down” or use earbuds if they prefer, instead.

5. Bring food. Use comfort foods or treats as a distraction to help them.

6. Relaxation techniques. Think about activities that can help them relax, such as taking deep breaths before and during the event. It can work wonders!

We hope you find these helpful. Why not book in with us from the below details?
