Achieving Glamorous Hair to Suit the Occasion
Whether it’s very sexy, spiced up to suit the occasion or soft and natural, whatever your special occasion is don’t make the mistake and leave it to the last minute to book an appointment. The enduring ability of your beautiful hairstyle will be determined by how thorough your preparation is.
If your look needs to last for long periods of time, there are a few things you need to consider:
Firstly, always plan and book your appointment in advance, the hairdresser needs time for proper preparation as well.
Next, to eliminate the initial guess work, I encourage my guests to send me a photo of their hair as it is currently as well as a photo of some hair styles they would like to achieve as their outcome of their appointment.
It’s a great practice as we can both work out a suitable and practical style that will successfully suit the occasion and allow for much more freedom and less pressure on the day. Additionally, as we also offer make-up services here at Salon Maggie G sending through a photo of some makeup you really love will help us to get you looking fabulous for your special occasion.
Once my guests arrive at the salon their hair and scalp must be properly cleansed with the correct shampoo and nourished to suite the individual’s hair and scalp needs. We always prefer to shampoo our guest’s hair in the salon, as it’s also part of the pampering, relaxation and luxury experience. We preferr to begin with thoroughly cleaned and totally saturated wet hair. Clean hair with no build up is the foundation for a beautiful lasting style if you are expecting soft curls or pencil straight to last into the evening.
The hairdresser understands the various types of hair and texture and its ability to hold different styles, so the addition of an applicable mousse helps to create volume in the hair along with the use of other holding and supporting products and various styling techniques.
Of course, the use of dry shampoo, the GHD and Curling Irons are excellent tools but generally they will produce a softer and more natural looking outcome.
It’s always best to do your research and find out what works best for your hair type.
