Highly concentrated formulas and precise dosages: one of the secrets behind the success of the Kérastase Rituals

The first step to beautiful hair Dedicated to personalised hair beauty and meeting the demands of modern women and men, there are two tiers of Ritual available.

This niche range of Rituals is a real innovation in scalp care, offering advanced solutions for tender, itchy, irritated, flaky or sensitive scalps. Specially formulated with Bioflorine, an innovative active ingredient, each Biotic Ritual provides precise dosages to relieve specific scalp problems. Each Ritual is delivered with a specially developed massage to maximise the effectiveness of the treatment.

*The Kérastase Hairspa Concept is present in selected Headmasters salons. However, all Headmasters salons offer Kérastase Rituals.

GET THE

LOOK

Diane Kruger always looks bang on trend. Even caught backstage at Tommy Hilfiger she looks effortlessly cool. Get her look with a little help from our expert Jonathan Soons of the Headmasters Artistic Team…

STEP ONE

The key to this look is preparation – it works better the day after the hair has been washed, or if you have fine hair add a little dry shampoo at the roots for added body shine at the ends.

STEP TWO

Apply L’Oréal Tecni.art Pli from the roots to ends, for vital hold and curl definition. Make a nice, clean parting using a pin tale-comb, just off centre. Then separate the hair in half from the crown to the ears.

STEP THREE

Using a Mason Pearson brush, give the hair a good brush through at the back. Using an elastic hair-band (Goody’s Stay Put, £2.49, Boots), start to brush the hair into a light loose ponytail. Once the hair is in the pony, using a Babyliss Pro Conical Wand, £25.50, tong Goody’s Stay Put the pony tail, spray with hair-bands £2.49 Tecni.art Air Fix, £8.25, and let the hair cool down.

STEP FOUR

Turn your attention to the pieces to the side of the ponytail, twist each side away from the face and place around the ponytail. Pin in with strong French pins.

10

PRO TIP: To get pins to stay put, weave the pins into the hair in a sewing motion then twist the ends of the pin together.

STEP FIVE Give the ponytail a light shake and split the hair into two. Tuck the first section under the base of the ponytail and pin it in. Then on the other section, split into smaller sections and pin into L’Oréal Tecni.art Air Fix both sides. Lightly spray £8.25 and Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine Super with Paul Mitchell Spray £9.50 Freeze and Shine Super Spray, £9.50, and hit the front row!

Age defiance With role models like Kylie and Madonna, women aged over 40 don’t necessarily want to compromise on looking good. Paired with age densiforce, from sÊrie expert, Color Suprême offers a complete anti-ageing service to help you turn back time by restoring colour, shine and volume from the inside out.

Here are some tips for you: 1. Subtle make-up to emphasise your best features…

Every season, the hottest make-up looks are so diverse, there is always one to suit everyone, whatever your complexion or age. Subtle make-up becomes a great asset as you age as it emphasises your best features and makes you look a few years younger.

2. Pick a few on-trend details to update your looks…

When it comes to fashion, pick a few on-trend details that work with your lifestyle to update your look. Classic elegance now replaces edgy style for the fashion savvy woman, so as time passes by, remember that looking effortlessly chic is what you’re after when navigating the latest catwalk looks.

3. Revitalise your hair with tailored hair-colour and haircare services…

It is a proven fact that hair is weakened by everyday wear-and-tear throughout the decades. Plus, with age, coverage of white hair becomes a key concern. With its série expert age densiforce haircare products, together with the first age-defying colour range, Color Suprême, L’Oréal Professionnel provides older women with the perfect solution for hair that needs to be revitalised.

Care: age densiforce

Colour: Color Suprême

With its feminine woody, fruity fragrance, the age densiforce range, consisting of a shampoo, masque, densifying mousse and in-salon treatment, delivers a power surge of anti-ageing ingredients to boost density, volume and vitality.

This permanent in-salon colour range is specifically designed to cover 80% to 100% white hair with truly natural, multitonal colour. It also increases hair density and boosts volume for hair that feels strengthened, thicker and looks fuller.

Ask your Headmasters hairdresser for a consultation about this exclusive in-salon service.

urly hair is sassy, gorgeous and feminine – but without the right care it can become highmaintenance and difficult to manage. Get the complete lowdown on how to stay frizzfree and fabulous!

COLOUR

Curly hair looks darker than straight hair because its surface isn’t as flat to reflect light, so a scattering of well-placed highlights can make all the difference.

CUT

Make sure you go to a stylist who understands the unique nature of curly hair, as it can’t be cut in the same way as straight hair. Soft long layers really work on curly hair to give shape and bounce, but make sure you avoid blunt cuts.

Curly hair springs up, and a blunt cut can create a Paul Mitchell Round Trip mushroom effect. £10.25

Also, you shouldn’t thin out curly hair – weight gives a stronger curl with more definition, otherwise you could end up with unwanted frizz.

MAINTENANCE

More than most hair types, curly hair needs a full programme of care.

We love the Kérastase Olèo Curl range, especially the award-winning Kérastase Crème d’Huile Olèo-Curl for thick curly hair. If you have normal or fine hair try Paul Mitchell Round Trip for separation, definition and absolutely no frizz!

FINISH

Don’t be afraid to reach for the curling wand, as curly hair sometimes needs more definition and some areas can be less curly than others. We love BaByliss Pro Attitude Rebel Porcelain Conical Wand.

NEW REAL CONTROL

FINALLY A CURE FOR HIGH-MAINTENANCE HAIR EVER STRUGGLED WITH A HAIRBRUSH? DOES YOUR HAIR EVER ACT LIKE IT HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN? YOU MAY BE ONE OF MANY INDIVIDUALS WITH HIGH-MAINTENANCE HAIR. Chemical damage, mechanical damage and the stresses of life can take their toll on our hair.

For those with high-maintenance hair, it often seems impossible to control as their hair is dense, dry and sensitised. To make matters worse, individuals with this hair type are often more prone to resort to excessive heat styling. Without the right protection, this can leave hair looking frazzled, damaged and out of control. Dense, dry and sensitised hair requires more than just ordinary shampoo - it needs a haircare range that offers real repair and reinforcement while providing moisture and control. Redken’s new Real Control range does all this and more. With the new Care Adjust Complex, Real Control transforms dense, dry and sensitised hair into sleek and sultry hair with a luscious shine. Cationic conditioners deeply nourish and condition while protein and ceramide help provide durable reinforcement and strengthening. The hair is further smoothed with shea butter which provides additional frizz control.

For something extra special, try the Real Control Overnight Treat for intensive repairing g while you sleep. Simply apply to damp or dry hair before bed and wake up to real softness and shine - and the best part is, the treatment won’t transfer onto your pillow and there’s no need to rinse!

Heat styling maniac? Ask your stylist about the new Thermal Resist, the most repairing treatment from the range. It protects your hair from heat and reinforces it! Now that’s some serious damage control!

YOU ASKED Hair problems solved by our experts

Q

I have really damaged hair, mainly from using straighteners every day on my dry highlighted hair. It’s weak and breaks really easily, plus it has lost its shine. What can I do to make a real difference?

Brooke, Putney Your hair needs some serious TLC to get NANOMAX BRINGS YOUR back to its best. I would HAIR BACK TO LIFE recommend a course of Nanomax. It’s a high-tech treatment, which uses nanomolecular technology to reverse hair damage. The tiny particles used are small enough to penetrate the hair shaft and replace lost proteins, which means you’ll get back that shiny swingy hair you used to have. Nanomax is available in Headmasters Mayfair, Putney, Wimbledon Village, Fulham Broadway, Richmond and Bromley. A course of three is recommended for the best results and costs £150, or separate treatments are £60.

Preetii Patel, Headmasters Putney

A

Q

My hair gets greasy really quickly and I have to wash it every day.

Sometimes this just isn’t practical – what can I do? Anna, Hove Unfortunately sometimes when we get into our cycle of washing our hair every day our scalp goes into overdrive to replace the lost moisture and produces lots of sebum, which again makes hair feel greasy. You might also be using products that are too heavy for your hair and leave it feeling limp and oily. I would recommend a Kérastase Biotic in-salon scalp treatment. Your stylist can analyse your scalp to find the cause of your problem and treat it specifically. They can also recommend products that won’t weigh your hair down.

Fran Davies, Headmasters Brighton

A

Q A

Naturally I am a mousy brown colour and have blonde highlights, which are very pale. I want to look a bit more natural and would love to have Kate Moss’ colour – what do I ask for?

Kate goes for a more honey blonde look that has an oh-so-pretty, unfussy allure. To start you will need a full head of highlights, but then in between have a top panel where your parting is and a couple at the back of the hairline, to let your hair recover and reduce damage. Make sure you ask for a couple of tones and go one shade darker and one shade lighter than your natural colour to create definition and a more textured look. Honey blonde does have a tendency to get brassy, so ask your colourist for a quick wash (this is a toner to get rid of any brassiness) with your blow-dry in between colour appointments – a quick maintenance trick to keep your colour gorgeous!

 B>PLK KQBOK>QFLK>I >RK@E For those of you who haven’t heard about L’OrÊal Professionnel’s global collaboration named H³, here’s your chance to find out more‌ In 2008 L’OrÊal Professionnel launched their new and inspirational cutting and styling collections and education programme to 44 countries around the world. People from around the globe joined hearts, heads and hands and put their egos to one side to make way for passion for creativity and sharing of ideas to take centre stage. The results?

By sharing their creative passions , collaborating on new cutting techniques , and giving firm direction on the right styling products to use , they created the benchmark of innovation and trend awareness for aspiring global hairdressers (H3).

HEADS

An integral part of this new global styling community is Headmasters’ very own Darren Hau. Chosen to represent the innovation and passion of the Headmasters team, Darren was taken to the birthplace of the H3 project, and the epicentre of innovation at L’Oréal Professionnel’s glamorous Headquarters on Rue Royale in Paris.

We caught up with Darren on his return from Paris and here’s what he had to say about his H3 experience:

One of the fabu

lous H3 looks

The experience in Paris has really inspired me for the coming year. H3 brings together the best creative minds from around the globe, and this really gave me a fresh perspective on cutting and styling. There were no egos on show, just a collection of passionate hairdressers working to share their knowledge and pass on their ideas.

From a salon perspective H3 places the same importance on customer service as we do at Headmasters. A haircut isn’t just a haircut!

It’s about getting clients in touch with their hair, analysing their personality, understanding their needs and creating the perfect cut just for them.

H3 is about connecting with the client, sharing your passion with them, and using your product knowledge to show clients how they can express their own styling creativity at home.
