HEadMastERs MayfaiRHas MOvEd! After seven wonderful years the flagship salon is relocating from Hanover Street to Maddox Street. The new salon is more intimate with an emphasis on luxury & comfort. The same amazing team is creating beautiful, fashionable, confidence-boosting hair just a quick hop, skip & jump away!

This issue is all about planning. I love a bit of planning, a scribbled list

here, a pinterest board there & more than a couple of calendars on my iPhone!

Sometimes planning is essential, for example, a quick Pinterest board or a couple of magazine tears illustrating the exact shade of blonde, red, or brunette you want speaks volumes to your colourist.

And a little forward gift planning takes the pain out of shopping & means you can get a little more for a little less. Check out our gift guide on page 8.

Pull out & keep our masterclass on page 16 so the next time your hair isn’t doing what it’s supposed to you have a quick fix at hand. (I tack them onto the inside of my wardrobe door – making them easy to inspire in a hurry!) Plus there is nothing like having a holiday in the diary to look forward to. Make sure you enter out competition on page 30.

Good luck & happy planning!

SHORT HAIR

To Chop or Not?

THe Upkeep On a daily basis, you need to do much less to a good short cut as its shape is cut into it therefore you need less styling to create a flattering shape. The maintenance really comes in with regular appointments with your stylist every 4-6 weeks (depending on how fast your hair grows) to avoid the mushroom effect.

SHORT HAIR

Many women dream of going short but worry about the day to day versatility, staying feminine & the salon upkeep

12 THe COlOUR

Colour can make a huge difference to the look and feel of a short cut. It can make it more dramatic, a pixie cut in a deep dark brown can be show-stopping but equally highlights can create light around the face and feminise a cut. If you already have colour, you will be used to regular salon appointments too, so a little trim at the end of your colour appointment to maintain your shape should be easy to fit into your beauty routine.

12 www.headmasters.com

SHORT HAIR

THe CuT Bring in pictures from magazines or create a Pinterest board of your favourite short cuts. Try to be a little flexible as this will allow your stylist to tailor the cut to suit your features. Speak to your salon about who specialises in short styles. Stylists love talking hair & lots of them will have short hair cut by other stylists as well. If you like it, ask who did it & book in with them. If you are going for a major change make sure you tell the receptionist so they can make sure you have a longer consultation time, or even book in separately for a consultation first, before you take the plunge!

eXPeRT ADVICe– JONATHAN SOONS –

ART DIReCTOR AT HeADMASTeRS

“The best place to keep length is the fringe & the crown. The fringe will frame & flatter the face, length at the crown will give the cut shape.For ultimate versatility go for a transient cut – it gives you the soft

texture of short layers blended with a longer side fringe to give you the option of creating different styles. Don’t automatically discount an undercut, it can work wonders for thick hair, they can be edgy & cool

but we can also cut them invisibly & they just help to keep the shape of

the hair slimmer!”

Professionnel tecni.art volume lift & L’Oréal Professionnel tecni.art pli and blow-dry using a ghd paddle brush.

2) Split the hair into six large sections one at the crown, on at the front, two at the back and two on either side.

4) Taking a tong, wrap sections of hair around it then roll up and pin to the head, repeat this all over and leave to cool. Once cool, brush the hair out with a ghd paddle brush and finish with L’Oréal Professionnel tecni.art crystal gloss.

Discover your perfect red

COLOUR COUTURE

If you are not paying enough attention to red this season, you are missing one of the biggest hair colour trends sweeping the catwalk. From Antonio Berardi A/W 13, Vera Wang A/W 13 to Oscar De La Renta A/W 13 and with A-list

celebrities like Joséphine de La Baume, Jessica Chastain and Christina Hendricks championing it, we predict it’s a colour to stay.

The good news is that Headmasters are taking a fresh approach to reds. Often perceived as difficult to wear, Headmasters have created a shade to suit every skin tone from burnt copper to tangerine. These bespoke shades can actually be more wearable than cool blondes and brunettes as the warm undertones really enhance the complexion.

All colour consultations at Headmasters are complimentary, book in and talk to one of our colour experts today.

EXPERT ADVICE– SIOBHAN JONES –

COLOUR DIRECTOR AT HEADMASTERS

“Reds are really pure this season with an inner energy which makes the colour look as if it’s glowing from within. This is because they

have a much stronger natural base tone which makes the hair multi-tonal, rich and vivid.”

Thought you couldn’t wear red hair? Think again, Headmasters knows how to

find the perfect shade for you!

Celebrity Style ...

Little Mix’s Jesy Nelson Jesy paints the town red

Siobhan Jones, Headmasters Colour Director, created this beautiful red on Jesy.

She says, “This season’s expensive, luxurious -looking red is all about adding richness and

depth by incorporating a multitude of different shadows and lights to create a red that is wearable, on trend and easy to maintain.I used gentle glossing colour in numerous

shades of mahogany and copper for super shine with no damage and applied them freehand

throughout to get a soft blend of tones.”

Top Tips On HOw TO MainTain YOUR REd

Sun and chlorine exposure is red hair’s worst enemy. Always cover your hair if you can

Just like skin, hair also needs sun protection, so use UV protection daily to prevent colour fade, we love Kérastase Soleil Huile Celeste

Avoid washing your hair up to 48 hours after the colour service to help lock in the colour and use a colour shampoo to avoid fade

Always use cool water to rinse, warm water opens the cuticle which allows for the colour to wash out

Every time you wash your hair you wash away colour, so avoid frequent washing by using a dry shampoo like Headmasters Style Extend Volumising Dry Shampoo.

MEN’S


COOL CUTS

It can be really easy to get stuck in a hair rut and have the same cut time after time in the salon because you don’t know what else to

ask for. We have looked at the biggest billing male models and rounded up the best cuts. These models make ads for mega brands like Prada, Burberry, Lacoste, Dolce & Gabbana and Calvin Klein and, unlike their female counterparts, most of us don’t even know their names but their image sells millions. Take a tip from the best in the industry …

Ok so let’s start with a model everyone knows – David Gandy. We asked Headmasters Art Director & resident male grooming expert Oliver Blackaby to tell us exactly what to ask your stylist for to get this look.

Get your tailored cut to take you from boardroom to bar at Headmasters

EXPERT ADVICE“Request a longer length through the front and sides. This is a relaxed but groomed look. It’s important to get

your stylist to show you how to style it from wet to dry.”

Matthew Terry“With a little nod to

the nineties (very cool right now), ask for

enough length on top to almost tuck behind the ears & taper hair

at the nape of the neck. This cut works

best on straight hair.”


[1] TIGI Hard To GeTso versatile, it gives the hold of a Matt Wax with Shine – £15.50

[2] redken WoolsHakefantastic to blow dry into wet hair, as it swells the cuticle and give that lived in finish. A light spritz on dry hair gives hold and definition, especially to curly or wavy hair – £15.30

[3] nIoxIn sHampoo, condITIoner and scalp TreaTmenT for thinning hair is a miracle in a bottle, great for fine hair, and also kick starts those weak hair follicles back into action! – £29

Oliver’s essentiAl Men’S ProdUctS:

Must-

have p

roduct

...

Arran Sly“this cut has subtle disconnection, length on top is important as this holds the hair in place & doesn’t go too short on the sides. A product with a lot of hold is essential.”

Sean O’Pry“Perfect for wavy & textured hair. Ask for a scissor over comb cut with tapering around the back & sides but not too square & leave plenty of length on top to allow it to be styled away from the face.”

Clement ChabernaudGreat for fine hair, ask for a finger’s width for length on the side & back and not too long on top. Ask for it to be blunt cut so it holds its structure.”
