Some gorgeous work created by the Queen of Updo’s and Hair Styling Sharon Blain, taken from her latest collection Vintage Reinvented. Australian stylist Sharon has educational courses for those who would like to be educated, inspired and motivated with long hair.

‘Sharon Blain’s photographic collections have earned her a place as a winner and finalist over many years. She is consistently featured in trade and consumer magazines world wide and is the creative mind behind many photographic shoots for Goldwell’s international marketing campaigns and major fashion designers.’

Jo Bellamy Salon

Beautiful vibrant collection from the Jo Bellamy Salon, Australia.. Love these!

Words From Style Icons:

The Couture Punk collection by Jo Bellamy Salon displays a sense of rawness contrasted with soft silhouettes which represent a more modern and feminine approach.

The colour is the hero of the collection, provides light and shade to define movement and draw the eye to the fall and shape of the style. The colours are vibrant; a kaleidoscope of shades which meld together seamlessly.

Angelo Seminara

One of the hairdressing greats that I admire so much, Angelo is the Artistic Director of Davines (Hair product line) as well as three time British Hairdresser of the year winner. Here is another collection of his that I wanted to show you all, because this is a demonstration of how great he is, with his ‘Mother Of Pearl’ collection.

In this collection Mother of Pearl comes into focus as a brilliant shimmering cut and color combination. By strict definition, it’s the iridescent layer of material that forms the shell lining of pearl oysters and abalone. These looks show the interpretation of Angelo working with international creative color ambassador Edoardo Paludo.

My Pick–More Braiding

I love this look. Of course it wouldn’t have the same effect without color work, which goes to show how important it is to have the cut and color combo perfected in placement, and color choice. Thanks to behind the Chair magazine for showing us this style which was done by Sherri Jessee from Sherri’s Hair Salon, Vancouver.

Grey Silver Hair!

Who would’ve thought that having Grey hair would ever be hip? Well good news.. People (or should I say young hip trendy gals) are now asking for different shades of grey or silver, Woo Hoo.

Christophe Gaillet produced these great styles for L’Oreal Professionnel with his Diamonds collection… Enjoy!

Rokk Ebony’s work

There is definitely something about this first shape with the high hair and chunky sides that I absolutely love. I would wear my hair like this in a flash, in fact I think I did for a while in the 80’s. The rest of the work featured is all produced by Rokk Ebony’s Artistic Team and could all very well be fabulous wigs but very well done.

Travel Size Texture – Coming Soon!

Yay, after working on travel size bottles for over a year and a half, I think I can finally safely say that with the help of Todi in China, I have achieved my goal. It just goes to show you just have to plod on and on. Even when I went through 3 types of leaky bottles I have stayed patient and true and have now finally got my finished bottle sample and guess what? No leakage and works well with a little pump action.

If all goes to plan I will have them to sell on here within a month, Watch out for my news…
