Hi all I have been sent this picture and I am just wondering how to get this effect. She has virgin hair and is a base 8. I was originally planning on using bleach with 20vol but now I’m wondering if I could even use bleach with 10vol. But my main issue was foil placement and technique. Any...

Hello everyone, I’m sure there must be a few of you with clients thinking of finally embracing their grey. One of my ladies has an appointment on 4th when we reopen, she will have 16 weeks regrowth by then! She wants to stop colouring her hair now. She is naturally a base 6 with 50% white - I...

Hi all, I have a client who currently has a bob, the last couple of times I’ve done her hair she’s said she thinks she wants it short, I never cut it short, I kept it the same. Now she has said at her next appointment it’s definitely being cut off and brightened up. Her hair is thin and fine...

Hi all, I have a lady who has half a head foil highlights, 2 bleach foils to 1 9/0 foil. Her natural hair is a 5. On top her hair is very blonde and she really hates the contrast to her natural hair. But she has a short cut, long on top but cut into the neck. I foil the top/sides no problem...

Hi, I have been having acrylics for almost a year now but am wondering what other options I have. I'm a hairdresser so my hands are in water a lot so I find it doesn't really affect my nails, acrylic seems pretty strong and hard wearing. The only problem I have is the varnish chipping from my...

Don't know if this thread should be posted here... But what do you all do with tips? Does each stylist have their own tip box or do all tips get put together and shared out? At the salon I'm at we have our own money boxes. I like to save my tips, it's amazing how it all adds up.
