We all love a bargain, especially one that makes us look and feel super confident. Headmasters salons are now offering Last-Minute appointments from just £18 for men and £25 for women. To get this purse-pleasing price, book quoting ‘stand-by’ on the day or the evening before for morning appointments – slightly more hassle, and you can’t chose your stylist, but what a saving!

The key to achieving this stunning colour is depth and shine. Ask your colourist for a copper gold glossing or the new L’Oréal INOA colour specially formulated for sensitive scalps. It’s perfect for enhancing natural red heads and gorgeous on ivory complexions looking for a glamorous makeover.

Celebrity Cuts and Colours Headmasters reveals how to achieve the most coveted celebrity styles…

Hot New

GinniFerGoodWinGinnifer’s quirky glamour has made her a firm favourite on the red carpet, but her latest hair transformation has made her a style sensation.

Colourist

simon asHtaRi,

HeadmasteRs bRomley

Ginnifer has a cool, dark, nearly black shade to make the most of her skin tone and green eyes. I recommend L’Oréal’s INOA colour (available at all Headmasters) as it is much glossier than usual dark tints but still gives a sleek colour that covers 100% of greys.

Discuss your colour options with your colourist first, as a full block black colour doesn’t work on every skin tone, but it can be tailored to you by using different deep shades and slices of lighter colour.

Cutter

ClaiRe mCCaRtHy,

HeadmasteRs bRomley

Ginnifer has fine hair, which can have a tendency to be a little lacklustre but looks fantastic with some serious texture. Taper around the nape of the neck and hairline, with longer lengths through the crown to create an elegantly disheveled look. It’s a super-versatile cut, which means you can change your style on a daily basis. It looks gorgeous on heart-shaped faces with small features, and makes a real feature of Ginnifer’s almond-shaped eyes.

The HM experts say:

Claire

Use a medium round bristle brush and separate hair into sections, create volume and curls by wrapping the hair round the brush whilst

drying. You can ask your stylist to teach you how. Finally finish with a spritz of Redken Quick Dry Finishing Spray for hold.

Robert

Siobhan

Stacey

stylist

fRan ClaRke,

HeadmasteRs bRomley

This low maintenance style can look innocent, coquettish, sexy and elegant depending on how you style it. To get Ginnifer’s textured look, prep the hair using Kérastase Elixir Ultime. It’s a beautifying oil and my must-have miracle worker

– great for any hair type to add shine, suppleness and strength. Next, finger dry hair from side to side to achieve volume and root lift. Then simply blast with Paul Mitchell Spray Wax to achieve texture. Once you are happy with your look, add L’Oréal Professionnel Tecni.art Fix Design for all day, all night hold.

The TINSEL- TOWN TEASEThe fast-track Christmas style update for party perfect hair

editorloves

My hair is naturally thick, frizzy and generally unruly, causing my morning routine to involve wrestling with a dryer and straighteners for at least an hour. And as I colour my hair, permanent straightening was never an option for me.

That was all before I booked in for The Headmasters Brazilian Blow-dry. My hair was cleansed and rough dried, then the super hair nourishing treatment was applied section by section and sealed with straightening irons to lock in all that keratin. I obediently didn’t wash my hair for three days but once I did, I had that easy, swishy, just washed but not fluffy hair I have always wanted. It costs from £150 to £250 (length of hair depending) and lasts three months, needless to say I will be back!

The Brazilian Blow-dry is only available in selected Headmasters salons. To find your closest salon just visit www.hmhair.co.uk

The Tinsel-Town Tease is the hair update for the Christmas season, sitting perfectly between tumbling curls and easy

undone chic, it’s perfect party hair. Inspired by Angelina’s hair half-up/half-down look, it’s a stylish combination of relaxed waves with a little exaggerated height at the crown to flatter the face. Only available at Headmasters salons, your stylist will create loose curls with a tong one section at a time, tease the hair from your forehead to crown with a pintail comb, and secure the front section of hair at the base of your head with pins. Available in all Headmasters salons from £24.

Don’t go for a complete colour change because you love your hair in summer. Subtle enhancement is always flattering and easier to live with than a big change. Try adding a few

light pieces around your face for a subtle change that looks gorgeous and natural – even

when it’s growing out! Balayage would be perfect for you. This professional technique is done by your colourist painting fine highlights where needed, and it’s completely bespoke to you and your face. It won’t create harsh lines or re-growth and it reflects light on the face, which will flatter every complexion. Headmasters salons specialise in this technique and it’s available from £65.

I am going to an evening winter wedding and the dress code is black-tie. I have

My colour is naturally a light brown, which I love in summer when

my hair is sunkissed and I’ve got a tan but in winter it looks really drab and dull. What should I do?

Definitely book in for a professional blow-dry (available from £24 at all Headmasters salons) for a stress-free look that lasts. To keep your style young and fresh go for a relaxed approach to evening hair and ask for an undone version of the Headmasters Bergdorf Belle blow-dry – ends are a little wispier this season, as seen on the catwalk from Ralph Lauren.
