At zappas, we believe that quality deserves to be recognised, so we put our assistants to the test in our annual inter-salon competition. The creativity flowed in full force as 28 assistants competed to create upcoming cuts, colours and looks for Autumn/Winter 08. Judges awarded Maddi Garbutt from the Peach Street salon the top prize: ghd’s new white stylers.

top tips

Hair advice from the experts

Colour Saver

Quick curls

Place the barrel midstrand, then wrap hair around it. Hold, don’t clamp, for 10 seconds.

Banish static

Spritz a shine spray directly on to your brush to smooth flyaway strands.

Watts up

Always use a hairdryer with at least 1,600 watts. It will shave minutes off styling sessions, even at low power.

Speed dry

Squeeze water out of your hair with a towel instead of rubbing. Then blow-dry with a vent brush.

Rain check

If it’s raining, tuck your hair behind your ears with gel to keep it frizz-free.

Always wash coloured hair in tepid water – hot water will strip away your colour.
