IN PURSUIT OF POWER YOU WANT THE POWER TO GROW YOUR COLOUR BUSINESS; SHE WANTS THE POWER TO BE THE BEST BLONDE SHE CAN POSSIBLY BE. MAKE IT HAPPEN WITH BLONDERFUL BY REVLON PROFESSIONAL DID YOU KNOW that more and more women in high-level jobs are blonde? In fact almost half of all female chief executives in the US are blonde. They may be stereotyped as being ‘bimbos’, but the fact of the matter is more women in positions of power are blonde.

Blondes also spend the most time and money in salons and expect the best.

Now you can give them the power to be the best blonde they can possibly be with Blonderful by Revlon Professional. Blonderful is Revlon Professional’s first range of lightening products that incorporates PLEXFORCE Inside. Unlike other additives, this technology is incorporated into the formulas, making the service more reliable and comfortable for the hairdresser. As PLEXFORCE Inside is already added into the lightening products, it means there’s no time-consuming extra steps. You simply carry out your normal lightening service with the knowledge that you’re helping to maintain the hair’s structural bonds, reducing breakage and leaving the hair looking healthy.

But the best thing about Blonderful? You’re giving your clients the power to choose a premium service, enabling you to charge more and build client loyalty.

CR EATIV E HE AD AD VE RT OR IAL

Strip back and get a clearer perspective – the age of excess is over as we enter a new era in beauty that’s a direct counterpoint to the visual excess we see day to day on our Instagram feeds. The DESIGN collection

by Revlon Professional doesn’t want to overwhelm the senses, rather it seeks to provide you with an aesthetic that’s pure and clear. Blonderful from Revlon Professional perfectly complements this collection. Easy and simple to use, this revolutionary bleaching product contains a molecule capable of preserving bonds, limiting hair damage. It requires no additional mixing, reducing the time and effort required by the colourist and the results are clear: dramatically healthylooking hair for every technical service, blondes, bleaches, fantasy colour and balayage.

EXCLUSIVE!

Guido Palau and Josh Wood to IN IT FOR THE headline The Coterie LONG HAUL HAIRDRESSING GROUP Peter Mark honoured 300 long-serving employees at an awards ceremony at the Smock Alley Theatre in Dublin. The Peter Mark Long Service Awards paid homage to employees in Leinster who have worked at Peter Mark for more than 10 years, while two staff members hit their Golden Anniversary of 50 years with the salon group. Brothers Peter and Mark Keaveney, pictured above, inset, at the launch party in 1961, opened the first Peter Mark salon on Grafton Street in Dublin. Today there are 71 Peter Mark salons across Ireland.

Peter O’Rourke, chief executive of Peter Mark, said: “We are delighted to celebrate our loyal employees and recognise those who have been with us for over a decade to those who have been with our business for 40 years or more. We place huge importance on attracting and retaining top talent and we have an excellent track record in this area.

“We have a wealth of talent and experience within our company and are now training the next generation of professional hair stylists coming through our doors.”

NOT ONE BUT TWO world-famous hair masterminds are headlining The Coterie in October in an exclusive collaboration between Creative HEAD and Redken.

Guido Palau and Josh Wood will come under The Coterie microscope in London on Monday 9 October. The former is a session superstar, working on shows such as Versace, Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang, while the latter is a beauty editor favourite and travels around the world colouring the hair of the rich and famous.

On a night like no other, the duo will recount remarkable career journeys, unforgettable moments and share extraordinary insights, giving lucky attendees unprecedented access to their unparalleled lives.

In conversation with Nicola Moulton – Vogue’s former beauty and lifestyle director and now the creative director at SEEN Group – we guarantee this is going to be an awe-inspiring evening. You must be a Coterie member to attend this event – but fret not, you can buy membership online right now – head to creativeheadmag.com/thecoterie to sign up.

TRUE FANTASY Pictured from left: Tamara Lohan, William Hague and Lucinda Chambers

THE ALFAPARF MILANO Fantastic Hairdresser Awards is now open for entries. With categories to suit every talent, from photographic work and business to colour and styling, there’s an opportunity for everyone to show off their skills. The winners will be crowned at a glittering ceremony at the Clayton Hotel in Dublin on 5 November – find out more at xpertpro.ie/awards.

We mean business THE 20TH WELLA BUSINESS NETWORK LIVE took place in the West Midlands of England at the Belfry Hotel and Resort. Day one saw Mr & Mrs Smith co-founder, Tamara Lohan MBE, speak about the challenges of launching a business; while former fashion director of Vogue, Lucinda Chambers, discussed her career. Day two saw Lord William Hague discussing what small businesses can expect from Brexit. Then The Real Hustle’s Alexis Conran gave a glimpse into the world of scams. Ending on a high, climber Alain Robert – aka the French Spider-Man – relayed his stories of climbing the world’s tallest buildings with his bare hands.

THE ROYAL TREATMENT PROFESSIONAL HAIR AND beauty supplier Salon Services is running a variety of fundraising events and activities to raise money for The Little Princess Trust.

This marks the fifth year Salon Services has worked with the charity, which provides real hair wigs for boy and girls during courses of chemotherapy. Warren Scarr, managing director and group vice-president of Salon Services UK and Ireland, said: “We delighted to continue to support The Little Princess Trust. Our staff have taken part in some fantastic fundraising activities in previous years, and we’re confident we can smash our target again this year.”

I have created a course to teach around the country with my friend and fellow salon owner, Sabrina Hill. It’s called The New Hair Revolution Hairdressers on Tour and puts together my upstyling techniques and business advice with Sabrina’s highly sought-after colouring techniques. I’ve also recently become an educator for ALFAPARF Milano, too.

WHY DID YOU WANT TO BE A HAIRDRESSER? When I was 11 years old I had a terrible experience in a barber shop, so much so that I didn’t get my hair cut for two years.

When I finally gave in, I went to a local salon and I remember how much I loved it and how it made me feel. I’ve wanted to pass on that feeling ever since.

CRAIG FITZPATRICK AGE: 21 SALON: BROWN SUGAR, DUBLIN

HIGHLIGHTS SO FAR? Working with Irish hairdressing legend, Gary Kavanagh, on a couple of shoots and winning two competitions within Sugar Culture – one for best photoshoot imagery and another for team player of the year.

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS’ TIME? I would like to move to Vancouver, I believe there’s a gap in the market for the type of hairdressing I like, doing photoshoots or opening my own salon. I’ve visited the city and I love it, and being so close to the United States makes it very handy to do session work on shows, should the opportunity arise.

WHAT IS YOUR DREAM HAIRDRESSING GIG? Session styling for fashion weeks around the globe. Dior would be a dream to work on – I’ve always loved the sleekness and simple-yet-striking hair. But at the same time I also love the grungy style of hair you see at Alexander Wang shows.

KEEP IT COOL

Shorter days and cooler weather is just around the corner, but don’t worry – L’Oréal Professionnel has spotted two must-have trends to keep that spring in your client’s step going into the Autumn/Winter season. First up is #TigerEye, worn by Gizele Oliveira (pictured above left). The look brings the subtlety of balayage to a darker base with sumptuous caramel highlights, perfect for adding an abundance of dimension and depth to the hair. L’Oréal Professionnel brand ambassador Hailey Baldwin (above right) models the second eye-catching look of the season, #RootShadow. Perfect for the blonde client looking for a subtle transition into autumn, this look creates a beautiful blend between the base colour and the blonde mid-lengths and ends, allowing the seamless and elegant shift from one season to the next without the harsh regrowth.

INCREASE YOUR PROFITS WITH SMARTBOND

BECAUSE TODAY’S HAIR colourists are like make-up artists, you have access to professional techniques and tools, cutting-edge formulas and a vast colour palette, enabling you to offer customised and bespoke services to satisfy your clients’ needs and desires.

Each client is unique, with features that they are proud of (and perhaps a couple of insecurities too!) so the consultation is the perfect opportunity to discover more about them, to study their unique face, the shape, the bone structure and the features, allowing you (as the consummate professional!) to identify the colour service that will best suit them.

With the natural look seen as a sign of a strong personality, coupled with the craze of #nomakeup (more than 10m Instagram posts!), hair colour like makeup is becoming a powerful way for your client to express her freedom. It can express what makes her different, her moods and her personality, with discreet touches of colour or by doing something a little more radical.

Ensuring that there’s a strong consultation will enable the client to feel reassured that personalised service has been created just for them.

IN JUST FIVE MONTHS!

That’s how much revenue Smartbond, the revolutionary bonding agent from L’Oréal Professionnel, bought to Hair Creations’ two salons since March 2017. Just think of the revenue potential for your salon! “Smartbond is straightforward to use,” says director Anna Munnelly, pictured above with her brother and fellow director, Alan. “We also found Smartbond to have a better cosmetic finish.” Here are Anna’s tips to maximise Smartbond success:

1. We offered a free Smartbond service with every colour for the first three weeks; this not only delighted clients but allowed the team to just go for it!

We all became a lot stronger in our capacity to sell Smartbond, a result which made it well worth doing the free promo.

2. It’s not just for blondes! Let staff and clients know Smartbond can help brunettes to battle against fade.

Inside story FLATIRON, DUBLIN

What are the magic ingredients for creating a salon as beautiful as Flatiron? “It took a great deal of faith, imagination, and wild optimism to see the salon as it is now”, says owner Carlin Doran. “It’s a listed building so we were protective and restorative in our approach.

Healing as opposed to transforming!” With a final result this gorgeous, you might suspect that Carlin had some professional help, and you’d be correct – his wife Aoife is an interior designer and the driving force behind the look of the salon. Bespoke furniture ensures everything is perfectly placed within the Flatiron, with each detail carefully considered. “Our counters were designed by Aoife. They are statement pieces, adding extra height to the mirrors, they draw the eye up to the soaring ceilings and bounce the natural light.”

SHARING THE SECRETS OF SUCCESS TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS

ROAD TO STARDOM MARTHA GALVIN, OWNER OF ALLURE HAIR AND BEAUTY SALON IN CASTLEBAR, CO. MAYO, SHARES HER SECRETS TO SUCCESS

IN THE BEGINNING

“I COME FROM a family of business people – we had a grocery shop and a crystal shop to name a few – so starting my own business came naturally,” says Martha Galvin, owner of Allure Hair and Beauty salon. “I’m also the youngest of six, so I am used to dealing with people.” Martha joined the hair industry aged 16, drawn in by the chance to meet new people, use her hands and be artistic. “The beauty of hairdressing is that it doesn’t matter who you are you’re accepted because of your talent with your hands,” she says. Martha opened her own salon when she was 22, for one reason only: “I wanted to give hairdressers somewhere to do their job but also have fun.”

hairdressing awards show which takes place in Dublin on 5 November, provide Martha with the perfect platform.

She has her work cut out juggling her business with her creativity, so it was important to find the right brand. “I have always kept up my three elements of work – my business, my artistic side and my competition work. I had to find a company that could combine education, retail and excellent products – I couldn’t do it without ALFAPARF Milano.” Martha is also an educator for ALFAPARF Milano, and uses her expertise to design upstyling courses.

“To be an educator, you have to know more than the skills you’re teaching – that way you can always provide the answers,” she adds.

STRENGTH TO STRENGTH

Two years into her career, Martha discovered competitions, and it ignited a lifelong passion. “I was always competitive, so to be able to do hair competitions was brilliant,” says Martha. “When you compete, you have the freedom to do what your heart wants, and if you’re artistic then you need that release.” Competitions like the ALFAPARF Milano Fantastic Hairdresser Awards, Ireland’s largest

★ Martha has been hairdressing since she was 16 and opened Allure Hair and Beauty salon aged 22. ★ She now has 24 staff across two salons.

KEEP ON LEARNING

Martha has enjoyed working on the Essential Upstyling and Creative Upstyling courses: “They are courses for when you already have skills and you want to learn how to create and design work.” And the Begin to Win course is invaluable: “It’s for people who want to compete but don’t necessarily come from competitive salons,” she says.

Martha sends each member of her team at Allure to a minimum of four external ALFAPARF Milano courses each year, along with running weekly courses in the salon to keep everyone up-to-dates.

She believes learning is the key to success in the salon. “We have to go out and get educated,” Martha adds.

“It keeps everything fresh.”

★ In the past 17 years she has won more than 100 awards including three international medals and an Icon in Business award from the Irish Hair Federation (IHF). ★ She also captained the IHF and won two Irish Bridal Hairdresser of the Year Awards, Upstylist of the Year and Irish Fantasy Hairdresser of the Year awards. ★ Martha designs and runs ALFAPARF Milano Essential Upstyling Step 1, Creative Upstyling Step 2 and Begin to Win.

With influence from the catwalk and Instagram, hair colour is taking inspiration from the bright and beautiful world of make-up IT ALL STARTED WITH Kim Kardashian West, of course. A snap of her unblended contouring sent social media into meltdown.

It suddenly brought a make-up artist’s secret – tailoring shades to help slim a nose or accentuate cheekbones – into the public’s awareness. Hair colourists have always created bespoke shades for clients, but this offered a fantastic opportunity to tie it in with a cosmetic trend people are fascinated with.

“There has been a surge of people using make-up to not only change the tones of their skin but also sculpt their face shape. It has meant that clients are much more aware that colour isn’t just about your shade choice but also about placement and how it can massively alter the shape of your haircut,” explains Headmasters colour ambassador and L’Oréal Colour Trophy Ireland judge, Siobhan Jones.

Niamh Paget, colour specialist at Brown Sugar Ranelagh near Dublin, agrees: “Make-up has been responsible for the adoption of these colours into

32

030-033_CHI_Colour Feature_GW6.indd 1

hairdressing. We use a contouring technique in hair colour to highlight facial features, and a blending technique for merging colours according to the change in the seasons.”

One of the most frequent concerns Siobhan Jones hears from clients is that their hair is lacking in volume. “Now, with the power of contouring with hair colour just like you would with make-up, you can give the illusion of structure and form,” she says. “With clever light and shadow colour placement you can make it appear hair has more volume.”

And as the similarities between hair colour as make-up become better understood, clients become more open to the idea of experimenting with their colour. A subtle way of dipping into this trend is with a rose blush over blonde hair, or braver clients can transform their look with a rainbow of colours, like facepaint for hair.

“Colourful hair is arguably the most innovative move in hair in decades,” says Jenny Dawson, master colourist at Dylan Bradshaw and part of the team that won the first L’Oréal Professionnel Style & Colour Trophy International Awards for Ireland.

BLONDME by Schwarzkopf Professional

Sophia Hilton, owner of Not Another Salon in London and a L’Oréal Professionnel Colour Specialist, has taken the hair world by storm since winning the UK and Ireland L’Oréal Colour Trophy in 2013, and she’s worried about the pressure being put on her fellow colourists “Overly retouched Instagram images flood our clients’ social media, leaving them with unrealistic expectations.

Each of these ‘perfect’ images represents how the gap between the highly paid and regular colourists is widening to a

“It is a trend that is becoming mainstream – there are thousands of tags for #colourfulhair #rainbowhair or #unicornhair.”

“Find out about your clients’ make-up regime as hair colours are heavily inspired by cosmetics,” says Zara Lynch, colour expert at Salon Services. “Some clients are a little put off by the exaggerated, statement looks seen on the catwalks, so explain to them how they can carry key trends in more natural and understated ways. For example, if your client’s complexion lends itself to warm or fiery shades, but they’re looking for a subtler alternative, talk to them about blended tones, brushed on like paint.”

Brands have been quick to embrace these trends and provide the tools to make it happen. Olaplex, the original colour additive, has enabled colourists to transform colour while maintaining hair quality.

L’Oréal Professionnel has launched its #COLORFULHAIR looks – including Peekaboo, Candy, Lavender and Mermaid Hair – and Redken has revealed City Beats, full of fashion-forward shades. For clients who want

dangerous degree. Clients are losing faith in hairdressers’ abilities and, saddest of all, hairdressers are losing faith in themselves.

Clients bring these videos and images in and are confused – why can’t their hairdresser create the same look in their 45-minute appointment on a Saturday?

So, what do we do? I refuse to contribute to the mess that we are in and I urge you to do the same. NEVER post or repost an extreme image without explanation and when you do hashtag #honestcolourist.

Most importantly, at every opportunity educate your clients about ‘the truth’ of modern colouring.”

to change their colour as often as their makeup, the JOICO InstaTint Temporary Color Shimmer Sprays offer a short-term option, and Schwarzkopf Professional’s IGORA range offers intense, permanent brights for stunning looks. Kenra’s Color Metallic collection is inspired by shimmering pigments found in eyeshadows and, echoing the vampy reds of autumn cosmetics, Ion’s Colour Flash SemiPermanent Hair Colours are bang on trend.

Hair colour is changing, giving hairdressers more freedom and opening up new markets – it’s an exciting time to be a colourist. “I really believe that colour is an accessory, and I think the more we have a younger conversation around colour like make-up – wash-off colour, you’re not tied in for life – the better,” explains Redken color creative director, Josh Wood.

Jenny Dawson agrees that this new breed of colour can be adapted to suit every client.

“Taking your client to the next level can be as simple as adding hidden panels of colour to transform an existing cut,” she says. “All the while, condition the hair beautifully so it reflects in a glass-type effect!”

The tricks of the (makeup) trade Enhance eyes… create the darkest colour shades on the under layers of a fringe. This helps make the line look stronger just above the eyes, which in turn brings them out.

Enhance cheekbones… extend colour with sectioning so the darker shades sit down near the top of the cheekbone.

Make a round face narrower… extend colour down through the hairline section to help slim the facial features.

Bring wide eyes closer together… colour should be extended down the sides, so darker shades sit at eye level.

Elongate a round face… lighten the top of the hair and the ends using a freehand technique.

To shadow the sides of the face, use a darker shade to add depth.

Soften a triangular face… darken the top of the head and crown areas and apply lighter pieces through the mid-lengths and ends. This will lighten under the jawline and create shadow at the top of the head.
