    Rose gold/pastel

    Hi, I'm thinking about trying a rose gold look on myself before I let it loose on clients (currently still training). I'm a base 5...does anyone have any colour formula suggestions? I usually pull a lot of warmth when I bleach but can usually get it to a coppery 7/8 in one session, based on what...

    Hi, newly qualified...not yet had the chance to work properly due to Covid so using the time to research and stock up. I'm just wondering what is the beat curling iron to buy? I'm mobile so need something affordable and versatile. Wondering whether the Mark Hill Pick and Mix is worth a try...

    Highlift or straight colour?

    Just did my Client...the copper turned out more red than expected but I think it'll fade with a few washes and since I weave it in only a few places between slices it's not too bad, regardless, she was happy with it, the blonde looked great too. Thanks guys!

    Highlift or straight colour?

    Just a thought, she says she usually has foils so I was going to weave but are you saying thin slices would be better?x I agree with the 2 blonde to 1 copper, was thinking of doing something like with the placement to make sure it's mainly blonde.

    Highlift or straight colour?

    Hi, I've a client with 100% grey hair. Wants foils to add blonde with a few copper here and there. I'm not going to need to bleach as she's light enough I think but would you use a highlift or straight colour? She's very ashy now but wants less ashy tones so was thinking of doing a mix of 99.0...

    How to backwash when mobile?

    I've got a hair washing tray, works a lot better then I imagined.. I bought it from amazon for about £15. When it's just a cut it's easy to get them to wash themselves but colours I find more difficult.x

    Client issues

    Maybe next time she wants an appointment, you need to be too busy to see her for months!

    Anxiety and work

    Is it just work to have anxiety about...maybe seeing your GP would help for some CBT to change your thinking. Talk to your business partner about how you feel, your partners so any problems need to be shared, you don't need to face anything on your own. Xx

    Staple colours

    Hi guys, as a mobile hairdresser, you obviously can't have every colour in a range with you. What would you say are the staple colours to have? I'm currently just buying for each client following consultation but think it'll be better to build up a bit of stock.

    Toner/colour choice

    Hi...just looking for some advice, I'm newly qualified and just want some reassurance...my client wants to get from the colour in the first pic to the second pic. I was thinking of balyage using the foilyage technique and then toning with either with 9.04 or 9.35. Does this sound right? She...
