Twas the week before Christmas
And in the salon
they were booked to the hilt
and their patience gone.
The foils were flying
the colours applied
but a client was begging
“fit me on the side”
“I have parties, events,
I have places to be!
Forget all those people its all about me!”
We washed we curled
through the holiday glee
With no time for lunches
or even to pee
At this time of year
It is late when we leave
After running all day
Then it comes to Christmas eve
When the last style is set
Our feet are ablaze
We can smile, and think
“Damn, I’m off for four days”
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL THE TEAM AT WOW!
I know I am a little behind on this little tidbit of celebrity gossip but how amazing was Ariana’s Platinum blonde album cover shot. There is something truly amazing about the almost ice like affect that this colouring gives to a light to medium skin tone and it works amazing in a lot of different styles. Letitia at the Taigum Hairdressing salon had platinium hair for the good part of 2014 and in her own words it looked “absolutely stunning”
Now for the bad news! Going Platinium requires patience, time and a lot of upkeep to keep it looking great! Some points to remember if you are wanting to go this route. Firstly please DO NOT try to bleach it at home, without the correct developers and specialist blonde toners you will end up with a mess that could cost up to $500 to fix.
Secondly if you have darker hair we can only safely lift 2-3 shades per service safely.This ensure the integrity and ongoing health of your hair is not breached and protects against damage.
Finally when you have achieved the desired shade of platinum or silver your hair will require weekly and even bi-weekly toners in some case to keep the amazing platinium (overtone effect).
If after considering this you are thinking this is the colour for you please come in to one of our hair salons at Toombul, Taigum or Strathpine for an obligation free consultation and quote.
Katy Perry is at it again but this time it’s not a crazy colour or Ombre but she has followed in the steps of other A-listers and gone the chop for Christmas and come out with this fashionable Bob.
Just remember if you have a lot of hair like Katy then you need to ensure your new style is texturised correctly. In my opinion the style that Katy’s stylist has cut is very heavy and not really shaped correctly for her squarer face shape. In summer a style like this can be even worse because the extra weight can cause discomfort in the heat.
If you are thinking about changing to a bob come into one of our hairdressers at Taigum, Toombul or Strathpine for an obligation free style consultation to see what would best suit you.
Although we are never surprised to see Rihanna parading crazy colours on stage at her concert, this year though she decided to go blue for the CBS radio We can survive concert. She even sported matching nails and lipstick to really set it off.
To go from brown to bright blue can take time depending on the amount of lightening required. This is to ensure that the integrity of the hair is not breached by to many chemical services. Always remember that although they are vibrant at the start most bright stains rinse out very quickly and require constant upkeep. You can get some lift and deposit colours in crazy colours which grab a lot better and don’t fade or run as well as our coloured bleach which once it’s in is there to stay.
