    Dandruff shampoo recommendations

    Can anyone recommend a shampoo for dandruff that will not damage hair (highlighted) I know head and shoulders is the devil but I can’t remember the exact reasons why ? My college years are long past and I like to give the correct reasons when asked !

    Wedding hair help

    Looks like a roller set ( on wet hair ) would work best, you would only have the side to pin back, It’s a few years now since I did a hair up ![emoji848]

    Honey blonde on client who has lots of gold tones already

    If 9/1 is too golden how about using 9/16 ? The violet may neutralise the gold , unless she has a % of grey ( they will turn pink )

    Matrix colour opinions

    Love the color graphics and the hair care range , The colours are quite cool toned ie 9/0 wella is very similar to 9n in goldwell and 9 in L’Oréal however in matrix they are neutral rather than natural and you may find you need to add gold all of the time . Or they look a bit ( muddy puddle ish...

    Unhappy with Wella

    A lot of reps are only sales people , don’t they have a tech support team or at least a phone number for product advice ? As wella are re vamping their range maybe they are not fully trained in the Updated information yet ? I recently changed from wella to ID , it’s more cost effective for me (...

    Mobile pricing

    I’m mobile and based in north east uk , I need to have a re jig of my prices , especially colouring , eg full head foil , I think I’ve slipped way behind in what I should be charging ! Also if I comb a colour through I end up charging the same as a regrowth ! Most of my customers have been with...

    Mobile hairdresser appointments?

    I started off with a standard appointment book but it was too big to carry around , I just use a page per day diary now so there’s loads of space for appointment s I don’t trust phone apps in case battery runs low or it breaks , it’s better to have a paper copy for back up

    Lowlights or ?

    Thanks , lowlights would be preferable but I’m not sure if there’s enough regrowth for me to hi light without overlapping It would be easier if she had a few more weeks regrowth , she used to get her highlights done around every 5 weeks and it was a bit fiddly as her hair is quite short, we...

I’m...

    Head lice treatment and colouring, help!

    I personally would , I’ve been hairdressing for 30 years and as far as I’m aware there are no contradiction to hair that has previously been treated with head lice lotions , maybe she should leave it a week or so then you can be fully confident there will be no residue
