THE EDIT
DION LA BELLA SALON OWNER, BLOW! IT'S A HAIR THING
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE AESTHETIC? My style is a bit ‘hobo-chic’, glam/casual, unstructured but pleasing to the eye. HOW DO YOU START YOUR MORNINGS? A kiss, a crumpet, a coffee, and a 20-minute drive to work! HOW DO YOU UNWIND AFTER A DAY AT WORK? I’m addicted to listening to mystery podcasts! ‘Mr. Ballen’ is my current favourite. PICK YOUR POISON? Potatoes. THREE DESERT ISLAND HAIR PRODUCTS/TOOLS? Wella EIMI Ocean Spritz, Wella System Professional Luxeoil Reconstructive Elixir, ghd Gold Hair Straightener. A QUOTE TO LIVE BY? “The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.” WHAT CUT AND COLOUR ARE YOU LOVING RIGHT NOW? I can’t get enough of the wolf cut/shag, and really digging the extra warm and pastel blondes. HAIR TREND FORECAST? I can’t get past the wolf cut/70s shag. I think it’s here to stay for a bit! FAVOURITE INSTAGRAM ACCOUNTS? @ladbible, @beyondtheponytail, @blowitsahairthing, @lowcostcosplayth A CAREER HIGHLIGHT? Drinking in an Irish pub in downtown Shinjuku, Tokyo, with 50 or more of my fellow Aussie hairdressers for Wella Red Forum was definitely a vibe, as was New York Fashion Week! I’m most proud of winning the AHIAs Hotshots - Male Rising Star award! WHAT PIECE OF CLOTHING OR ACCESSORY CAN YOU NOT LIVE WITHOUT? My Levi’s, and my RayBans, I’m pretty blind without them! A SONG THAT WILL GET YOU DANCING WITHOUT FAIL? Horses by Daryl Braithwaite. 32 - INSTYLE MEN
