Being a hairstylist I always have to keep an eye on new trends and keep my work fresh. If you click on this link it has great ideas for hair and make-up. I cannot wait to try them out. Some of the styles I have already tried and have loved re-creating. Colouring hair has been great this year so far, the dip dye effect is brilliant and depending on the customer you can be as subtle as you like or as outrageous as they like.

This messy pony tail rocks!!!
So simple to do also.
Just make sure your hair is prepped properly and
your good to go. I recommend a good mousse and
always have a nozzle on your hair drier as this helps
control the air flow and keep your hair in check.
A good backcombing brush or comb and no break
hair bobbles and kirby grips.

 If you do not own a pair of tongs or cloud nines

wrap it around your fi…

Love Hair-Love Life: Love Ever After - Weddings 2011: I was not only lucky enough to style the hair of some of my closest friends and clients for their weddings last year ...

I was not only lucky enough to style the hair of some of my closest friends and clients for their weddings last year but I also got to get my own hair styled for my own wedding in November, (Ruairi I work with did my hair and I loved it). Phil and Cathy even got their wedding published in the Wedding Journal (included pics). It was a great year for making brides beautiful. I just love the whole process from start to finish. Sitting down with brides and discussing the dress, the theme and starting to put together ideas for the hair.
