Matte Hair "How to Dull Your Do"


Shiny tresses are one of the most sought-after attributes, but spring’s abundance of shimmering fabrics made matte hair a must. If clothes are very light-reflective pairing high-gloss hair with them can be too much, use dry shampoo or baby powder on blow-dried hair to dull it down. “The two-day-old-matte look is cooler—it’s not like you’re trying too hard", just watch the catwalk this season shimmering clothes equals matte hair!

Elvis's hair set to fetch £600 at auction


Lock of Elvis's hair set to fetch £600 at auction

The hair is preserved behind a plastic bubble and mounted on a gold disc
A single strand of hair from the late Elvis Presley is expected to fetch £600 at an auction in Gloucestershire.

The hair is mounted in the centre of a gold disc, which is inscribed with "The King's Authentic Hair". The item includes a certificate of authenticity.

It is being sold by a Gloucestershire music fan who bought the strand "on a whim" through a television auction.

County auctioneer Chorley's said it is set to make between £400 and £600 in the sale at Prinknash Abbey Park.

Another strand of Elvis's hair, saved by his personal barber, sold for £1,055 at auction in November 2009 and a clump of the singer's hair went for $15,000 (£9,200) at an auction in Chicago in October last year.

"The Permanent Blow Dry"


We are pleased to announce the arrival of
the hot new styling sensation from London -
The Permanent Blow Dry.
£130 for a limited period
including all the required homecare products



This innovative treatment will quite literally revolutionize your hair's look and feel - beautiful, sleek hair and that salon styled look every time. Great hair - no frizz and no hassle! What's more the effect and condition will last between 3 and 4 months.

The new technology - brainchild of the famous Hersheson Salon, London - is a hair relaxant, which takes the frizz out of hair even under challenging conditions such as damp atmosphere, gusts of wind or heating/air conditioning.

The product, which smells of a pleasant caramel, is applied to the hair and left on for 10 minutes, before being blow-dried carefully into position. The treatment is left on for 3 days before washing and styling as normal at home.

The result is super sleek, soft hair that is twice as luscious and glossy as before. The hair looks like it has been professionally styled. Thereafter all you have to do is wash and condition the hair using the recommended products.

The Wrapping Room

Had a very interesting day so far! It’s been very productive so far thanks to one client who had lots of fabulous ideas one of them being this BLOG!!!!! Anyway you must look out for her new company The Wrapping Room I am look forward to working with Sally Whites new and exiting company she’s full of very exiting ideas watch out for The Wrapping Room………

New Product "Volupt"


For the first time in the history of hairstyling, voluptuous volume is on the rise. Masses and masses of voluminous hair, minus the crunch. No matter how much product you use, hair stays soft. Some call it genius. We call it VOLUPTuousness..........

Today, there are two methods for creating volume – the ‘friction’ or ‘...film’. ‘Friction’ because it roughs up the hair’s surface, leaving it harsh to the touch. Or ‘film’ because it coats the hair with a hard, inflexible layer. Both styles deliver on volume, but do not deliver on softness.

Never one to stand still, Sebastian innovation rocks the boat by best combining both worlds – volume and softness – by adding in a little extra to keep hair feeling naturally soft and touchable.

Cushion Particle Technology What Does It Do?

Two layers of micro-particles bind themselves to the hair’s surface – some raise the cuticles and rough up the hair for a stronger, classic volume. While others accurately fill in the gaps, smoothing over the edges for a bigger, softer volume.

You’d better believe it. Naturally voluptuous is now yours for the making. No stick, no crunch, no compromising. Hair feels exactly as it should – unprecedentedly soft and supple to the touch.
