Mane-tain a cool head this fall-winter

Feels like every year by the time we stop complaining about the weather and get used to each season, the next one is here, maybe it’s a sign of us all getting older or maybe life is getting faster. Either way we have to stay on top of our look and know what’s in fashion.

This season, with hair, we have some very cool looks that are gaining momentum in the ‘real world’ that are easy to do and give a lot of versatility with styling. From sea salt styling spray to matt paste, it’s all about free-moving hair that looks effortless. Gone are the days when no one would step out of the house unless their hair was stuck in place, stiff and completely in place.

Cuts that are in: The Lob with either solid overgrown bangs or micro bangs. The mullet, again bangs are optional, be it short or long.

For the guys: Disconnected is in but undercut is out. It’s also all about textures. Keep the sides short with a smooth taper finish.

Colours: Similar to makeup contouring, hair colour contouring is the big thing now, whilst some play it down, it’s real and it works. Using various shades and precise placement of colour we frame your face in the most flattering way. It’s plastic surgery without the knife!
