So what is the best way to style curly hair keeping it natural, without it looking to crunchy ? This is a very long question because it depends on the texture and thickness of your hair. For instance your hair may be fine and have a little wave in which you want to make into a stronger curl. Or you may have the opposite situation you may have very thick course hair and may want to weigh down your hair and relax the curl a little. There is one thing for sure. There is no one size fits all method for styling curly hair, it’s more of a trial effort to work out what suits YOUR hair the best. Loads of articles refer to the “Curly Girl Method” and this is great, however it started in America where there is a lot of Afro and Latino heads of hair which…

Kerasilk Keratin smoothing treatment is a method of hair smoothing that will last up to 5 months. This in-salon Goldwell treatment works to de-frizz your hair, to make it more manageable, smoother, frizz free and fabulous! But the unique properties of keratin are wonderful for the health of your hair, too. It helps to repair damaged hair. Our hair is made up of keratin protein molecules, connected by various sorts of bonds. These bonds can take a beating from the procedures and chemical treatments we do to our hair. During the smoothing treatment, we will wash your hair in an alkaline based shampoo which will open the cuticle of the hair. Then we apply Kerasilk Keratin lotion to your hair and seal it in with the straightening irons to restore and reinforce your locks for up to 5 months. If you have naturally curly hair, and want to keep your curls we can…

Ammonia Free Colour, why should I use it?

Ammonia-free hair colour is a major trend in hair colour technology, and over past few years all the major hair colour brands have launched, or are launching, ammonia-free permanent colour ranges. So how do ammonia-free colours work and what does it mean for the health of your hair? In the past ammonia has been used in permanent hair colors to give better, more durable colors and allows for more significant color changes. Ammonia partially removes the natural colour from the hair. It opens up the surface of the strand so that the hair colour can get through and effectively lifts out the natural hair pigment so that the hair colour molecules can penetrate and deposit. Essentially, ammonia has been largely responsible for hair color’s ability to alter hair hue without washing out after only a few shampoos. This method of depositing colouring the hair has been commonly reported to have side effects…

So, as the saying goes, how time flies . I cant believe its already been 4 weeks since opening Half Cut Mclaren Vale. I suppose it’s the fact that I’m only here from Wednesday-Friday and spending the beginning of the week in Adelaide at Liquid Hair. It’s a nice change not having to commute 2 hrs to work. Something else I’m finding really refreshing is  meeting all of the Mclaren Vale locals.Everyone has been really friendly and taking the plunge and booking in for new cuts and colours. It’s a challenge remembering everyone’s name  when your meeting so many new people on a daily basis. Thank you to all for all of the recommendations and thank you to all of the returning clients who I haven’t seen for many years. Everything is coming together  really well. I have had the sound system (and plasma) fitted this week, a very special thank you…
