Longer lasting waves

Here’s my tips for longer lasting waves/curls
✨Leave curls to cool down for as long as possibly before dressing out (I recommend at least 10 minutes).
✨Use oil to brush out with my favourite is two way mirror smoothing oil.
✨Spray with plenty of flexible hairspray, my go to is R+Co Outer Space flexible hairspray.

Hair extensions tend to hold curls so much better than natural hair although this is a more extreme way of keeping curls/waves if you are styling your hair with curls/waves most days a pack of extensions whether it’s tapes or nanos may help keep your style for longer.

I’m currently on leave but keep an eye out on my page for updates.

Soft brown sugar

I’m often asked by clients if there’s anything else I can learn about lived in colour, the truth is there’s probably tonnes.

Placement is not one size fits all it’s customised to each client to achieve their desired results. Each gloss and tone is also tailored to each client to achieve the perfect colour for the particular client.

What helps with this is attending a minimum of 2 classes a year, knowing my colour line inside out and also understanding the hair history of the client.

Hi I’m Alice,

It’s been a while since I’ve shown my face on here so I thought it was about time I reintroduce myself.

I am 35 and currently on leave from the salon (I’ll keep you all updated on my return)

When I’m not in the salon you’ll usually find me with my family, whether that’s at home or getting out to different places, family times my favourite time.

I love going out for dog walks with some good company, followed by some yummy food on a day off.

I am a morning person and love to stay motivated and busy although if I have a lazy morning that’s probably how the rest of my days going to go too.

I have been hairdressing for about 19 years and self employed for around 12 years.

I probably love business just as much as hairdressing so getting to mix the 2 together is a dream.

I’m always learning and attending new classes so I can continuously improve, classes also help keep me motivated.

I have lots lined up for my business once I’m back and can’t wait to share it with you all.

I am so grateful for everyone who has supported me and my businesses, even those who have come and gone. Thank you!!

Keep an eye out on my instagram to keep up to date on what I’m doing and if you’d like to be the first to know when I’m back taking bookings drop me a message with your email address to join my wait list 🫶🏻.

Soft Brown Sugar

Services such as face frame or glosses in between larger appointments can keep colour looking fresh, save time and stretch out the time between larger appointments.

Who makes the most of these shorter maintenance services?

Top 5 tips for extensions

✨ Use a soft bristle brush whenever brushing your hair, my favourites the Balmain one.

✨ Silk pillow cases will help prevent friction and keep extensions healthier for longer.

✨ Always fully dry after washing, avoid leaving extensions to dry naturally.

✨ Apply oil daily through mid-length and ends of hair extensions to help keep extensions moisturised.

✨ Sleep with hair in loose plait to limit tangles.

Hair extensions

Hair extensions extensions are a fantastic additional service that can not only add length but also enhance hair colour and add thickness. There are a variety of hair extensions methods available for different hair types and to help achieve desired outcomes.

If you’re interested in hair extensions book a consultation with a hair extension expert to get all the info and start your hair extension journey.

If you’re a stylist do you have a specialist field and what makes you a specialist?
To me it’s an area that you are extremely knowledgeable in, a service you perform often and are completely passionate about. Attending classes to always improve your skills and knowledge will help you to become an expert in a particular field.

I am currently on leave however, if you would like to book with me in the future please drop me a message with your email address to join the wait list and keep an eye out on my stories 🫶🏻.
