“Hair accessories, especially for summer, like jewelled clips are a great “cheat” as the fringe gets longer, hiding what was once an old fringe and adding instant glamour to the overall style,” says Andrew. It might be called a ‘cheat’ but surely this is one of the most stylish ways to disguise a long fringe? As Andrew notes, hair grows about 1.5 cm on average per month so if you’re planning on getting a fringe trim this is a good in-between option too.

It’s important to note here that even if you’re lucky enough to have never experienced dandruff or irritation, scalp health is well worth taking notice of. Experts agree that having a clean, healthy scalp is key to promoting cell turnover and optimising hair growth—particularly useful if you’re dealing with hair loss or thinning strands. By exfoliating your scalp specifically, you remove any potential follicle-clogging skin cells and boost blood flow to your head, so both your strands and scalp should be healthier than before. It’s a win-win. Ahead, keep scrolling for the best scalp hair treatments to nourish dryness, soothe itchiness, banish flakiness and generally get your head feeling a whole lot healthier than it did befor...
“Copper is the perfect trend for spring and summer as it has the warmth and shine of a red shade, but it is lighter and more delicate against the skin,” says Siobhan Haug, International Colour Director at TONI&GUY. “So, it makes it the ideal choice for this time of year when your make-up, clothes and hair all want an injection of summer sunshine.” If you’re worried about whether copper will suit your skin tone, you’re in luck, there’s a copper intensity for everybody. “The great thing about coppers is that you can add a little extra warmth or coolness to reflect every skin tone,” notes Siobhan, “there’s a whole spectrum to choose from, there isn’t only one shade of copper – think copper brown, rustic copper, lighter auburn or peach.” You Deserve to Make Money Even When you a...
“Medium length haircuts with layers are the ultimate failsafe look,” says Jemma Mewies, salon co-owner at Mewies & Co.“It’s perfect because it’s never too drastic, therefore if you’ve had long hair for a long time but perhaps get some anxiety around having your hair cut, it’s such an easy transition. Alternatively, if you’re growing out your shorter hair, medium length is normally an achievable length to reach,” she adds. A mid-length cut is also flattering for all face shapes and still gives you the versatility to style your hair in several ways, explains Jemma. “Medium length hair is perfect for having for updos as well as wearing it down, without being too long, too heavy or too short to put up,” she says. Low maintenance haircuts? We’re here for it...

And lucky for you, we’re putting you in a position to take on the coolest short-hair trends before everyone adds them to their Pinte...
The Olaplex product that I tend to use the most is No.6, the Bond Smoother. I use it as a heat-styling primer, applying a small amount to the lengths of my hair, and always see a dramatic improvement in smoothness and frizz control. So when I saw that the brand was launching a serum, I was a little confused. What was the product that I had been using for years, then? I decided to try the new serum, No.9, in a silo without any other Olaplex products so I could see how it performs and if it can compete with the other styling products in the range. It’s described as a lightweight serum that not only strengthens hair but also protects it from free radicals, pollution and heat damage too. The first thing to note is the texture. It’s a clear lightweight gel that sinks into the hair quickly....
So what haircut should we book in for during out next salon visit? Well, most experts we have spoken to advise that 2022 could be time to embrace a hair change. However, unlike big hair trends of yesteryear (blunt bob, we’re looking at you), the It style for 2022 is set to be a whole lot easier to deal with. At a time when we’re all looking for a hairstyle that’s fuss-free, easy to manage, and versatile, it’s no surprise that the iconic ’70s shag is making a comeback. Revlon Professional global artistic ambassador Mark Leeson says, “The shag is the ultimate undone statement haircut. It’s choppy and full of texture and makes for a refreshing change to long, one-length hair. On a daily basis, you don’t need to do much to a well-cut shag style, as the texture and shape are alr...
Celebrity beauty brands are not my thing. I’m somewhat of a product snob, and I go into the testing process of any celebrity-backed beauty brand with a hearty serving of cynicism. My reasoning behind this is, despite the fact some of my favourite stylish celebrities make for great beauty inspiration, when it comes to products, I know they’re no experts. In reality, it’s the countless people responsible for their makeup and hair looks that really hold the secrets. The one area of beauty that I will almost always turn to expert advice on is haircare. The reason for this, I’ll admit, it mostly selfish. You see, I have never been able to style my own hair in a way that oozes effortless glamour. I always leave the salon feeling as though having an expert on hand every day (...
