Services
For those of you who have locks that are dying to be style cut and hydrated properly, we do cut curly hair dry and cut lock for lock, together with a maximum hydration treatment. We will show you how to care for your hair, so you will have a few techniques to take away with you so that you can successfully maintain your curls at home. We cater for anyone, from 2a curl to the 4c curl. We highly recommend that from 3a to 4c curl be cut using this method. Anyone with curls 2a to 2c, we find using the traditional method works well and are able to use the heated scissors, which cauterize and prevent split ends. We use Everscents Organic haircare and Clever Curl range that doesn’t have any silicones, plastics, petrochemicals, artificial fragrance or preservatives and is Australian made.
Before you come in for your curly haircut, you need to come prepared. We require you to arrive with freshly shampooed and conditioned hair, tangle and knot free and with your curls in their natural form and not tied or pinned up. Please arrive with your hair DRY without knots and tangles (should be removed during your shampooing process at home) prior to appointment. If the hair isn’t prepared properly, we are unable to cut the locks individually.
Our colouring services system contains Plant Extracts and is FREE from Ammonia, resorcinol, Ppd (Paraphenylenediamine) and silicone. It is a much better choice to use on your hair as it ensures longevity of your colour, and shine and is much better for your health with no unpleasant odour, when applied. Our Colouring system gives 100%grey coverage with an amazing natural shine. The ash tones are able to counteract any brassy, orange undertones that can be experienced when colouring virgin hair and our different range of reds give an amazing vibrancy. Our bleach is also Ammonia FREE and can achieve the same degree of lift as any other bleach on the market whilst maintaining the integrity of the hair. We specialise in foiling, especially in the ‘No Streak’ technique. This allows for a fantastic blend and no lines. We are also familiar with the Balayage and Ombre Techniques.
We use the CHI Keratin Environ Smoothing Treatment which is Ammonia and Formaldehyde FREE and takes approximately 2.5 hours to apply and then blow dry and iron into the hair. This treatment takes up to 4 months to fade out and is great for getting rid of up to 95% of frizz, whilst retaining the natural curl without regrowth. You will find that blow drying the hair will take half the time since you don’t have to deal with the frizz factor. The Keratin gives increased manageability, shine and intense moisture to the hair and is great for damaged hair types. This service can really help if you are going on holidays and want to leave the hairdryer at home.
We use the CHI Transformation Straightening System, which is Ammonia and Formaldehyde FREE. This service achieves permanent results that give you straight and frizz-free hair. Hair is permanently straight until it grows out. Every 4-6 months the regrowth can be retouched. We do charge by the hour and one can expect the service approximately 3.5 hours based on average thickness and length of hair. It can be applied to virgin and coloured hair but is not recommended for excessively damaged hair.
We pride ourselves in knowing how to cut hair. We use a combination of techniques to achieve desired looks by cutting hair wet or dry, depending on what is required. The heat cauterises the hair and prevents split ends forever! Your haircut will last a lot longer as it retains that ‘just cut feeling’. With conventional haircuts, the hair remains unsealed. The hair ends are open and the hair is exposed to detrimental impact without any protection resulting in hair that easily loses its shine, volume and bounce. Heated scissors have electronically heated blades. The cut hair ends are sealed by the heat, locking in moisture and care substances. This stimulates the self-regeneration of the hair. The hair is effectively protected from further damage. The effect of cutting with heated scissors is visible after the first haircut. The entire structure of the hair is improved. You can see and feel it at once. The hair has more volume, more shine, more bounce and elasticity and it’s easier to manage style and care. Hair splitting is gone! Now, if you want to give your hair that ‘Wellness Treatment’, come to our salon to experience this unique electronically heated cutting system for yourself. You’ll be glad you did.
