    Olaplex (and other products) potentially banned under new EU laws - hoax?

    Not sure where we stand in the EU at the mo but under new rules the ingredient Butyphenyl Methylpropionol will be banned from 1st March 2022. Olaplex contains this ingredient (as do many other products). I wonder if there is any truth in this, hoping it is a hoax. I’ve got over £1k of retail...

    Hair extensions ‘testing’

    I would love to know too. But I don’t think they do anything, I think they chuck them in the bin and offer us a discount to keep us happy

    Incorrect item received

    Most of my salon friends are having the same problem. It makes us look so unprofessional and then I’m losing £££ by either toning the extensions or recolouring all their own out of my own pocket

    Euphoria One: Brazilian, Russian or both?

    Definitely not coarse .. I’d say it’s a bit fluffier for volume. You’ll never go back! It’s lovely x

    Euphoria One: Brazilian, Russian or both?

    Wouldn’t bother with the Mongolian, all the ends snapped with my clients and that was with dark hair. I love the Brazilian. Not tried the Russian though x

    Brazilian blow dry

    Have never offered this service before in our salon and never had any interest. However seen a lot of vids on FB lately of people doing them and having them done.

    Hair extensions help needed!

    Sorry only now replying, have had clients have theirs rebonded and refitted every 3-4 months and have had them last 1 year easily with correct aftercare. They do go shorter a touch every time they are refitted but my clients always enjoy the process of having changes xx

    Does anyone else find hair extensions a stressful job?

    yea i feel the same on times. what suppliers do you use? i feel like i've got my complaints procedures down to an art. in the last 6-7 years i can't recall any complaints that weren't totally warranted, or had any bad vibes with clients, and 9/10 always come back... i always say before they...
