GET COUTURE CURLS
C
urly hair reacts differently when wet to straight hair, which is why the experts at Headmasters recommend a dry cut for curly hair. Cutting dry means you cut to suit your hair texture. Also, curls change across the head so you need to see it dry to cut a flattering shape! It is often better to colour curls freehand, rather than in highlights (or foils), as it is easier to predict where the colour will then fall. Curly hair usually lightens quicker & can be weaker
than straight hair, so home hair care is really important to maintain healthy shiny curls between salon visits.
TOP 5 FRINGE TIPS FOR BEAUTIFUL BANGS
1 2 3
Get your fringe cut dry – your stylist will be able to make it sit perfectly without any guess work. Find out which fringe works for your face shape: wispy, blunt or sixties. Fringes can deceive the eye to make a narrow face look wider or vice versa. Get your fringe trimmed regularly, Headmasters offers free fringe trims between appointments (with an optional donation to charity Kids Company – look good & help London’s young people too!)

Invest in Dry Shampoo (we love Headmasters Style Extend Dry Shampoo £2.99) – fringes go limp easily. Use professional hair care – healthy fringes always look best as they literally frame your face.

Be honest about how much time you spend on your hair in the morning. If you only have five minutes, then a look that takes 20 minutes to style won’t work. 9

Interview
Clare Hansford
SENIOR MEMBER OF HEADMASTERS PRO SESSION TEAM
HOW I DID IT Start young I started at Headmasters young. This meant I learnt my base skills really early & spent a lot of time on the salon floor dealing with clients, finding out what they really want from their hair.
Change is good
Clare’s top tips • Be passionate about
magazines & online. • Love trends in every
sense – hair, clothes, make up, interiors etc. • Get involved in social media – Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest help you get the inside track on what’s happening in hair, fashion & beauty. • Join a salon group & train from within – it’s the best way to get into the hair industry & it means you get paid while you learn.
HANDBAG ESSENTIALS • iPad • iPhone • Headmasters Dry Shampoo • Garnier BB Cream • Le Teint Touche Éclat • Kerastase Elixir
20
At first, I followed the salon management path & ran the Headmasters Raynes Park Salon successfully & happily for a number of years. I went on a few part-time make-up courses at the London College of Fashion & then joined the Headmasters Artistic Team, where I am happily still growing, learning & being inspired.
Feel it Join a hairdressing group with a strong art team. Go to companies you have heard of & check whether they have a flagship branch in London. Most importantly, make sure you are truly inspired by the images they produce – if you are, 9 times out of 10 it will be the right fit for you.

HEADMASTERS ANSWER TO BEACH PERFECT HAIR. PROTECTED FROM THE SUN, SALT AND CHLORINE, IT’S PRACTICAL AND TOTALLY HOT. WEAR ALL DAY AND LET DOWN AT NIGHT 1) Spritz the hair with L’Oréal Professionnel tecni art pli for added texture and grip, and blow-dry using a ghd paddle brush to smooth all fly-aways. 2) Once dry, divide the hair into four sections. 3) Take the first section and make a scalp fishtail braid. Do this by taking two 1cm pieces of hair and feeding a small part of the left hand section over to the /HeadmastersUK
right-hand section. Repeat this on opposite sides, remembering to take a new piece from the scalp each time. It sounds difficult, but once you’ve tried it you’ll see it’s much easier. 4) Repeat this in the opposite direction along the other three sections. 5) Take the plaits and layer over each other, remembering to massage the braids to loosen them.
GHD PADDLE BRUSH £20
Psst..Stylist tip Put some smoothing gloss, such as L’Oréal Professionnel tecni art liss control, on your hands when braiding hair– it will make plaiting easier and help keep fly-aways at bay for a neat and sleek finish.
