Hair

 

Before your hair service, whether you are having a blow dry , GHD curls, straightening or an upstyle we ask that you shampoo and condition your hair and dry it naturally, that is, without the use or styling products or appliances. If you have a lot of very thick hair, and the service will be early in the morning, you can shampoo your hair the night before if you wish so that it will be dry before we arrive. For normal to fine hair it is best shampooed on the same day as the service, particularly if you have hair that is inclined to be limp or have an oily scalp.

 

We recommend using warm rather than hot water and not over stimulating the scalp,  just a thorough but gentle massage . If the scalp is over stimulated it can be sensitive to styling products and brushing, and fine hair can become oily.  If we have to spend time drying hair, before we can begin styling, it will take up a lot of your time. Whether you shampoo the night before or on the same day please only use about half the amount of conditioner that you would normally use, comb it through your hair with a wide tooth comb  and rinse it very thoroughly. Towel dry your hair by squeezing it, not rubbing it vigorously as this just tangles the hair and can damage the cuticle. 

 

We will have a wide range of professional styling and conditioning products with us appropriate for your hair and style choices.

 

 

 

Make-up

 

Please use your normal skincare routine before your make-up service. Use only a small amount of moisturiser and apply it at least 20 mins before we arrive to give it ample time to absorb into the skin. Don't use any eyecreams or eyelash conditioners, but if you are going to be outside in the sun you can apply sunblock sparingly and at least 20 minutes before the make-up application .

 

We appreciate your co operation, thankyou.
