CELEBRATING NATIONAL APPRENTICESHIP WEEK -
CARDIFF SALON ON WHY HAIRDRESSING MAKES A LUCRATIVE CAREER CHOICE A recent survey conducted by the Fellowship for British Hairdressing found that 30% of salons reported stylists could earn £30-£40k, while 16% have team members on £50k or more. The hair industry is often overlooked as a lucrative career choice but the prospects offered are often above the average UK wage, and hairdressing is regularly voted the happiest profession.
my apprenticeship, there’s a clear structure for learning with brilliant
To celebrate #NAW2018, award-winning salon owner Ken Picton at Ken Picton Salon in Cardiff is flying the flag for salon employment opportunities in Wales and has a number of success stories, who tell us why hairdressing has been a brilliant career choice... Ken says “Over 25 years apprenticeships have been the lifeline of our industry and the Ken Picton salon brand; we’re now a certified training centre for City & Guilds, we invested in the apprenticeship system 15 years ago, we were shortlisted for the Apprenticeship Awards Cymru 2016 in the Small Employer of the Year category, rewarding individuals, employers and learning providers who have excelled in contributing to the development of the Welsh Government’s Traineeships, Jobs Growth Wales and/or Apprenticeship programmes across Wales – we were the only hairdressers to be shortlisted. It’s a huge honour and I believe the credit for this lies with our management team and ultimately the strong structure of our apprenticeship programme in salon. It’s important to show apprentices what a bright future they could have in this industry.”

20 YEARS OF APPRENTICESHIPS AT KEN PICTON SALON Amy Regan joined Ken Picton in 1997 on an old style apprenticeship and has worked her way up to Assistant Director. She says, “I have gained many friends during this time, some I’ve worked with since day one and I still love the salon environment. I’ve also specialised in KeraStraight and the results are fantastic. I take pride in my work and enjoy my cutting from short stylish cuts to lovely long hair or a beautiful blowdry.” Jo Spencer joined the salon in 2007 and because she was really motivated by the qualifications system she went on to do NVQ level 3 and extra units such as barbering and customer care. She says “I completed my apprenticeship within the salon and have now progressed to a senior stylist. I love colouring and styling, it’s great to be able to see the guest through start to finish.” Nicole Whyte is last year’s winner of the Assistant of the Year award and is now on shop floor after completing the current apprenticeship scheme. She says, “I have been a part of Ken’s team since 2012. As a school leaver I was delighted to get the job and have been highly motivated throughout, especially getting qualified through the salon’s own training school. I love to blowdry and find great joy in making hair look the best I possibly can.” Megan Thomas is the current winner of Assistant of the Year and is still studying; she’s been with the salon for just over a year and has shown an immense amount of commitment to her job and to her learning! The award winner was selected by the management and trainers, for the person who had excelled with their training and their role as an assistant. Megan says, “I’m loving every minute of n 8 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018
rewards and incentives and at the end I know I’ll be working in a fantastic job.” Ken, who is offering to visit schools as part of the hairdressing industry’s ‘Support Hairdressing’s Future’ campaign, says “I’m inviting anyone who might like to be an apprentice to come and visit about hairdressing apprenticeships and don’t be put off by advice from schools who are sometimes unwilling to relinquish students to apprenticeships while they’re getting money for them. We’re aware that the government take away benefits and travel allowances for apprentices making it appear less financially viable BUT you really can earn well, have all your training paid for and enjoy a truly fulfilling and creative career. I’d be delighted to come into any school to talk about this career path – we’re not the job to do if you’re failing your exams, we’re the choice for creative, intelligent, ambitious individuals! It’s time young people were given the facts about the opportunities in hairdressing.” Ken Picton is at 8 Mermaid Quay, Cardiff, CF10 5BZ. Appts: 029 2066 2080. www.kenpicton.com. n

Here & Now
Is Cardiff The Most Stressed City in the UK indulging in fatty food and treats, while a quarter turn to alcohol. However, with the UK battling an obesity epidemic, there are other ways to relax in the workplace.
With increased working hours and less ‘me’ time, it’s no surprise that Brits are feeling more stressed than ever, however research has revealed that people living in Cardiff are among the most tense in the UK1! And for half of those surveyed by aquatics experts, Tetra, it appears work is to blame causing stress levels in the Welsh to rise throughout the day. To deal with modern-day pressures, many are turning to comforts that aren’t always the best option for their health with one third
n 10 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018
Introduce calming influences - keeping fish in the office can make a great solution, with many owners claiming to feel more creative, experience better sleep and improved mindfulness2. The size of your office doesn’t have to be an issue either, with smaller aquariums being the perfect alternative for those strapped for space. Tetra’s Cascade Globe aquarium is just 6.8L in size and comes with an attractive running water feature to add to the calming benefits making it the ideal tranquil desk accessory. It also comes in an attractive red, white and black, so it fits into any space perfectly. Build in time for the unexpected - When planning your work for the day, be sure to anticipate delays and build in time for feedback. By giving yourself 1-2 hours space in the day, you’ll reduce the chances of panicking about getting your work done.
Create a clean workspace - If you’re feeling overloaded, tidying up your workspace can help, even if it’s just tackling one drawer or section of your office at a time. You’ll really notice the difference. Give yourself regular breaks – It sounds obvious, but we spend most of our day looking at screens with one hour turning into the next so really try and give yourself even just a few minutes break, several times a day. Whether it’s taking a quick walk around the block, listening to a podcast or even just looking out of the window, this will give you the opportunity to reset your mind ready to focus on the next task. Leave work, at work – It can be really difficult to switch off after a crazy day at work but it’s important you give yourself the time to switch off when you come home. Try lying on your bed or sitting on the sofa and focus on your breathing for 10-15 minutes. This will help you to switch off, allowing you to enjoy the rest of your evening. n

Store away clutter, whether it’s on your shelves, in the cabinets or on the worktop – clutter is the enemy of a small kitchen space.
Paint Your Cabinets Before starting a kitchen paint job, empty the cabinets, clear off the counters, and remove freestanding appliances. Relocate tables and other furniture to another room. Mask up the countertops and cover the flooring, and tape plastic sheeting over the splashbacks, windows, fixed appliances, and interior doorways. Mask off the wall around the cabinets. Finally, set up a worktable for painting doors, drawers, and shelves. In kitchens the key to a good paint job is surface prep. “Old cabinets are covered with everything from hand oils to greasy cooking residue, “You’ve got to get all that off or the paint won’t stick.” Install new worktops Worktops can be reasonably easy to replace so this can be done as a DIY project to save money. But be very careful, worktops are not cheap and getting a neat finish in a mitered corner is not as easy as it looks, especially if the walls are not straight. Even if going the DIY route, if you have a built-in gas oven or hobs then then you’ll need an approved Gas Safe engineer to remove and then re-install it after the worktops have been fitted. There are many different materials used to make worktops, but laminate worktops are the most popular type in the UK however there are so many options it can be hard to choose which material would suit your lifestyle best – wood, natural or engineered stone, stainless steel or marble? Whichever worktop you do choose will have a huge impact on your kitchen, in terms of both visual appeal and function. Manmade composite worktops made from minerals and resin offer a smooth and durable surface in a huge range of colours. Concrete work surfaces are very cool right now and there’s a surprisingly large range of colours to choose from. However, it’s not terribly robust and needs expansion joints so is not seamless. n 14 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018
Update your kitchen floor Kitchen flooring might need to be practical and hardwearing, but there’s no need for it to be dull. From painted floorboards to geometric patterns, there is a kitchen flooring material to suit every style. As kitchens often blend with dining areas into larger, open-plan spaces, kitchen flooring can be a great way of uniting different areas of the room, creating a cohesive finish. Modern porcelain tiles tend to be the most hard-wearing choice for kitchen flooring, as they are waterproof, stain resistant and scratchproof, as well as easy to clean. Natural stone will last a lifetime if properly installed and treated, but it’s porous and must be sealed. Solid and engineered wood floors are warm and offer character, but tend to be less durable, although solid floors can often be refinished a number of times. Improve kitchen storage Store away clutter, whether it’s on your shelves, in the cabinets or on the worktop – clutter is the enemy of a small kitchen space. Drawers and a narrow larder can help to maximise the amount of storage space available, which allows you to hide away ingredients, utensils and crockery, keeping worktops and shelving clean and clear. That’s not to say nothing should be on display. Statement pieces like freestanding mixers will add to the design of the room; daily essentials such as kettles and toasters are impractical to pack away, and fresh flowers, herbs and other small decorative items will keep the room feeling homely, so display them all sparingly. Adding hanging racks close to action add interest and are great storage.

Home & Garden Create a feature wall The wall you choose to highlight should ideally be the space to which your eye is first drawn when you enter the room. Avoid walls with doors or windows if you can, as they’ll tend to detract from the effect you’re trying to create. Be brave with your paint colours. If your room is already a neutral colour, choose a strong contrasting shade to give the space instant drama and depth. If your walls are already painted a bright hue, try a complementary colour a few shades darker or lighter on the feature wall. Be brave, be bold and follow your gut instincts – and most importantly, have fun! Change your cabinet doors and handles Changing the cupboard hardware is one of the easiest ways to spruce up your kitchen! Since the beginning of the 80s the sizes of cupboard handles have been standardised. The distance between the screw holes is called CC-size. CC stands for Centre to Centre, ie. the distance between the centre of one screw hole to the centre of the other screw hole. Start by measuring the distance between the screw holes. The easiest way to do that is by opening the cupboard/drawer and then measure the distance between the center of the screws on the backside. Measure the distance in millimetres between the two
screws. The most common measurements are 64mm, 96mm, 128mm and 160mm. Liven up your scheme with accessories Accessories will brighten your kitchen in an instant and you can choose a theme to bring the look together. Display selected items on open shelving and think about reorganising your worktop so you only have your favourites on show. If you have a dresser, this is the perfect place to show off neat stacks of crockery, cups and glassware. Use new fabrics From new seat cushions for tired old chairs to pretty blinds and tablecloths, fabrics can work wonders and don’t have to cost the earth. Oilcloth table coverings are also back in fashion. Buy new appliances New appliances and can refresh your kitchen without changing any of the furniture. You’ll need to ensure that they will fit into the existing space, though,. Freestanding appliances can be replaced more easily.

Many will grow happily in pots or window boxes but can just as easily be inserted between other plants in your borders, if space is limited herbs do well in containers. Many herbs such as Rosemary are evergreen, originating in warm mediterranean climates preferring well drained soils, they actually thrive on neglect, requiring little fertiliser and crop really well without much feeding. n 18 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018

30 Days Wild
Connecting People with Natural Beauty The Wildlife Trusts’ annual nature challenge 30 Days Wild encourages people to do something wild every day for the month of June. 250,000 people took part in 2017. This June’s 30 Days Wild challenge from The Wildlife Trusts will encourage thousands of people across the UK to make their neighbourhoods wilder – to help wildlife and get communities sharing the joy of the wild. Academics at the University of Derby who have monitored the challenge since it began in 2015 have discovered that spending time in nature makes us feel good. 30 Days Wild encourages people to notice nature on their doorsteps every single day and gives them a multitude of exciting and fun ways of doing it. New research on link between natural beauty and happiness The University of Derby’s evaluation of 30 Days Wild 2017 included new measures and reveals that people’s perception of beauty in the natural world is a key ingredient to unlocking the benefits of wellbeing and happiness experienced by participants in the challenge. Dr Miles Richardson, Director of Psychology, University of Derby explains: “Over the past three years we’ve repeatedly found that taking part in 30 Days Wild improves health, happiness, nature connection and conservation behaviours. Now we’ve discovered that engagement with the beauty of nature is part of that story. “Tuning-in to the everyday beauty of nature becomes part of a journey which connects us more deeply to the natural world. As people’s appreciation of natural beauty increases, so does their happiness. We respond to beauty - it restores us and balances our emotions. This, in turn, encourages people to do more to help wildlife and take action for nature.” The latest set of results from the study of 30 Days Wild also confirms that the benefits of the challenge last well
n 22 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018
after the month has ended. There are indications that the beneficial impact of taking part could last an entire year. Lucy McRobert, Campaigns Manager for The Wildlife Trusts said: “30 Days Wild is a lovely way to get closer to nature and marvel at the everyday wildlife that lives all around you. Sit quietly and enjoy watching dragonflies dance over a pond or take a moment to sow a windowbox of wildflowers to help bees. Get together with your neighbours to create hedgehog highways or sow frontgarden meadows along the length of your street. No matter how small the action, it all counts!” 30 Days Wild pack Sign-up to 30 Days Wild and you’ll get a free pack with a booklet of inspirational ideas for Random Acts of Wildness, a recipe for wild strawberry and thyme ice cream, wildflower seeded paper to sow, a wall chart to record your activities and wild stickers. There are special packs for schools with outdoor lesson plans and giant Random Acts of Wildness cards. Business can join in too, with tailored download packs to bring the ‘wild’ to work. 30 Days Wild 2018 neighbourhood theme This year’s theme is all about helping wildlife in your neighbourhood and our pack has inspiring ideas for sharing the challenge locally.

The quintessence of Alien Flora Futura is the symbiosis between the crisp, green freshness of “Buddha’s Hand” and the extraordinary rarity of the “Queen of the Night” flower that only blooms for one night. Alien Futurais contained within a talisman-like bottle featuring original architectural shapes, which encapsulates this incredibly precious “flower of the future.” It has changed its hue, departing from the amethyst tones of the iconic bottle to embrace an even more feminine orangey-pink to evoke the dawn sky, the prelude to a kinder, more optimistic day during which everything becomes possible: loving, believing, dreaming, being true to oneself...

Diptyque will celebrate the 50th anniversary of their first personal fragrance, L’Eau, with the launch of Fleur de Peau, developed by perfumer Olivier Pescheux.In ancient Greece, one myth stood out as the most passionate and sensual:
the love between Psyche and Eros, the beauty’s quest to meet with her lover and the happy outcome of their union which led to the birth of their daughter, Hedone... Only one scent can convey this legend as a fragrance, that of musks. Equally legendary, they have the unique ability to enhance the skin with their arousing carnal accents. They are at the very heart of Fleur de Peau, as cottony and light as they are soft and moist. Highlighted with the elegantly powdery iris and fruity, ambery ambrette seeds, they reveal their full tactile dimension.

The streamlined look - jeggings, leggings, skinny and straight jeans seems to have been with us forever, doesn’t it? It’s because that pared-back silhouette is a trend. A fashion trend lasts for several seasons, sometimes years - unlike a craze, which comes and goes within a few months. So I want to share with you an overview of the latest looks and tip you off about the new long-term trends that are on the horizon And yes, you’ve guessed it: roomier, wide-legged trousers are going to be here for a while. The mid-length is also spreading, for dresses and skirts as well as jackets and coats. n 28 | Cardiff Now | Issue 41 | April - June 2018
Top tip: if you get used to these trends early on, you can make some very smart buys right at the start, and update your whole wardrobe for months to come. Tropical Utility: if you like to make a statement, you can team exotic bold prints with safari jackets and wide-legged or cropped trousers. There are also pretty feminine prints with utility details like metal poppers and D-rings, giving your outfit an edgier feel. Continued over the page
t @CardiffNow | G Cardiff Now | w www.nowmagazines.co.uk 29 n
Health & Beauty Transformed Traditions: traditional tailored silhouettes are updated with asymmetric shapes, twisting and draping and lots of colour blocking. Layering is still big this season, so jackets and cardigans will come in handy to take your day outfit through to the evening. Elevated Basics: This look is all about the details that transform a trusted pair of jeans into something smarter carrying on the hi-lo trend from last season. Quick reminder: hi-lo is when you mix the opulent - ruffles, embellishment, silk with a casual look, like a denim or a sweatshirt. So statement jeans, with floral embroidery, sequins and lace, make a return from last season. Summertime Bright: put your sun specs on! For high summer, dazzle with bold colours in one piece
dresses and jumpsuits or two-piece ‘dresses’ with the skirt and top in the same fabric and pattern. Have fun mixing and matching with separates in other colours from your palette. Springtime Whimsy: if sheer fabrics and ruffles are your thing, you’ll love this. Think florals, pastel colours and delicate cut-out details. The silhouettes will define the waist with flattering fit-and-flare shapes. Asymmetry is also big this season, with hi-lo hems on dresses and skirts and one-shoulder tops. n Keep watching for more tips and trends Jane Brook House of Colour Jane.brook@houseofcolour.co.uk 07070 293341

Securing Your Doors and Windows You can reduce the risk of your home being burgled by taking some simple, and often inexpensive, precautions. Fitting your doors and windows with good locks can go a long way towards deterring burglars. If you live in rented accommodation, ask your landlord if they can help make your doors and windows more secure. Doors Fitting your front door with the following can prevent burglars from gaining entry to your home: • An automatic rim latch lock (sometimes called a nightlatch). These can usually be opened from the inside without a key. This lock isn’t enough on its own – you should also have the lock described below.
• A five-lever mortice deadlock with Kitemark BS 3621. These can only be unlocked with a key, even from the inside. • A letter-box cage to prevent thieves from tampering with locks through the letter box. • A door peephole, which allows you to check who is outside before deciding whether it’s safe to open the door to them. Your back door should also be fitted with a five-lever mortice deadlock. Fit a security mortice lock and mortice bolt to both sides of French doors, and get advice on fitting locks to patio doors. Make sure the doors and frames of outside doors are strong with sturdy door hinges. Fit hinge bolts for extra security. Consider replacing glass panels with laminated glass to make
them more difficult to break, or buy special film to stick to the inside that will have a similar effect. Some people use a door chain so they can see who’s on the doorstep without having to open the door completely. If you have one, don’t leave the chain on all day because this can stop family, carers or emergency services from getting into your home if they are needed. Windows Fit window locks with keys to all downstairs windows and any others that are easy to reach, such as those above a flat roof or near a drain pipe. Keep window keys in a safe place, out of sight and reach. They should be close to the window so that you could find them easily if you needed to escape in the event of fire, but not on the windowsill. If you’re thinking of buying PVCu or metal-framed windows, make
Fit window locks with keys to all downstairs windows and any others that are easy to reach

sure they come with good builtin locks and comply with British security standards, as it may not be possible to fit better locks once they are installed. If you need locks fitted or changed, use a qualified locksmith. You can search using the Master Locksmiths Association (MLA) website or call them to find a qualified locksmith. You can also check whether a locksmith is a member of the MLA. Lights Outdoor lights make it easier for you to find your way if you’re coming or going after dark. One option is to install a lowlevel light that automatically switches on from dusk until dawn. Alternatively, you can get a light that switches on automatically when it senses movement outside your home but these can be accidentally triggered by pets and other
animals. If you decide to get a motion-activated light, make sure you position it carefully so that it doesn’t disturb your sleep or annoy your neighbours. Burglar Alarm A burglar alarm can warn you, and/or the police, of an intruder. There are many alarm types with different features, and costs vary. If you’re considering installing a burglar alarm ask the Safer Neighbourhood team at your nearest police station for advice before you buy. If there isn’t a Safer Neighbourhood team, your police station will have a Crime Prevention Officer who can also offer advice. n For more information about keeping your home safer please contact the Age Cymru Advice line on 08000 223 444.

The History of
Cardiff Bay
Cardiff owes much of its history to the Industrial Revolution of the 1790’s, which stimulated mining in the valleys of South Wales. It also gave rise to the building of the Glamorganshire Canal in 1794, which brought iron and coal down from the valleys. As this industry expanded it became obvious that a more efficient form of transport was required and in 1840 the Taff Vale Railway opened. This rapidly increasing iron and coal trade was also the catalyst for the construction of a number of docks during the 1830’s. These included the Bute West Dock, which was the first dock to be opened by the 2nd Marquis of Bute in 1839 and its seaward entrance known as the Oval Basin, the Bute East Dock in 1855, Roath Basin in 1874, Roath Dock in 1887 and the Queen Alexandra Dock in 1907.
and workers from over 50 countries settled here. Some of the
During this time, Butetown and the surrounding dockland area grew into a cosmopolitan community with seafarers from all around the world making Cardiff their home. It is estimated that people from at least 50 nationalities settled in this area, which became known as ‘Tiger Bay’ This kaleidoscope of settlers helped to build the docks, worked aboard the ships and helped to service this industrial and maritime city.

By the 1880’s, Cardiff had transformed from one of the smallest towns in Wales to the largest and its port was handling more coal than any other port in the world. On the eve of the First World War in 1913, coal exports reached their peak at over 13 million tonnes. At this time the international price of coal was struck in the Coal Exchange building and it was here that the world’s first £1 million pound deal was signed.
around the world, and the 90s saw the birth of the renewal of
After the Second World War, however, demand for coal slumped and international markets were lost as other countries developed their own steel industries. Trade was increasingly lost to container ports and by the 1960’s coal exports had virtually ceased. In 1978 East Moors Steelworks closed with the loss of 3,200 jobs and this dealt a further blow to South Cardiff.

Tiger Bay was also notorious.

The 1970s and 80s saw a new influx of refugees from conflicts the area as a leisure and business hot-spot and the founding of the National Assembly for Wales. Today, the Cardiff docklands area is known as Cardiff Bay and it has been transformed by the Cardiff Barrage that impounds the Rivers Taff and the Ely to create a massive fresh-water lake. A number of boat tours operate from Mermaid Quay, fauna of this exciting and upcoming area. There is also a water taxi service which operates throughout the year from the Bay to the city centre and Penarth. Cardiff Bay is home to a number of attractions such as Techniquest Science Discovery Centre ideal for all the Butetown History and Arts Centre, the Norwegian Church Arts Centre and the Wales Millennium Centre, a stunning international arts centre.
