    Why do hairdressers prefer highlights to all-over bleach ups?

    When I go in next time I'm gonna tell her that I'd like a more dramatic result this time and ask can she balayage the majority of my hair rather than foiling. Maybe that will help get me blonder faster- I'd like to at least try it. I've seen Guy Tang get great results with it and she talks about...

    Why do hairdressers prefer highlights to all-over bleach ups?

    Yeah like what is the attraction for her to do it this way? When I went in for a consultation they said it would be very expensive to do it all in one day, I said that isn't a problem- it's actually probably costing me far more to keep going back for 3 hour highlights appointments? I've spent...

    Why do hairdressers prefer highlights to all-over bleach ups?

    Hi guys, To give you some background, I have long, extremely thick hair. It was very dark brown/black (lvl 3 on top and lvl 1 on the ends) with colour buildup from a mix of dark brown professional tints, and purple/teal/red direct Crazy Colours. I decided to go blonde again and my hairdresser...

    Best training in UK for microblading?

    If only eh :) Yep exactly and just because it's not regulated doesn't mean that it doesn't need to be (case in point, Laser eye surgery isn't regulated in Ireland either!!). I want to be trained properly and provide the treatment properly.

    Semi permanent eyebrows/micropigmentation

    Thanks a million. What I am also concerned about with semi permanent makeup is that it pierces the skin. A friend told me that I couldn't do it from home because I have carpet? Is that true? First I've heard of it. Also, how do I know if a course is actually insurable? A lot of them seem to...

    Best training in UK for microblading?

    A friend told me that I couldn't do semi permanent eyebrow treatments from home because I have carpet in my apartment, is this true? He said it's because they are tattoos, I mentioned they are only semi permanent and don't cause bleeding.

    Hair extension course-Ireland

    Hi all, I'm looking into doing a training course in hair extensions in Dublin, Ireland and trying to decide between Hairspray or Platinum? Hairspray are a huge name but Platinum do far better quality work (in my view). hairspray's extensions can be quite obvious and the ends stringy. Geeks who...

    Where to start?

    Is Hairburst any good?

    Seeing posts about it all over Instagram, it's a hair growth supplement formerly known as Hairvits. The results look a bit too good to be true though. http://www.hairburst.com/ Is it legit? Thanks!

    Why do hair extension techs love Revlon so much?

    Hi guys, Quick question- most of the hair extensionists in my area retail and recommend Revlon products such as Equave and Uniq One, but I rarely see it in regular hair salons. Why do extensionists love Revlon so much? Is it really that good or is there another reason? I've used Equave before...

    Parlux-damaging to hair?

    Thanks all. I looked up the model online before posting this and there's very little info, reviews, etc. In the end I figured if the model is discontinued it maybe wasn't very popular, I've never seen it recommended on here. I went for the Parlux 385 in the end, got it from my local salon...
