1. Your ultimate guide to hairdresser lingo to ensure you get the exact look you've been dreaming of (from flob to keratin)
Maths grad busy playing with lipsticks, dance freak, jack of all trades, master of some... Okay, so hair salons are finally opened, your Out Of Office (OOO) automated messages are already scheduled for the next few weeks and you've booked the first appointment available at your trusty hairdressers, now what? It's been so long since a lot of us have had some good quality time with our hairdressers and only the lucky ones had the hands of a professional keepings their hair in tip top condition. It's only natural you would forget some of the lingo. In fact, some of us would have made a panic booking without even knowing exactly what to ask for. For example, layers! We know you are probably gagging to ask your hair stylist for layers, however according to the experts, layers are one of the most misunderstood terms requested by customers looking for more 'body' on their hair. We have asked a-List Hairdresser George Northwood, also famously known for styling The Meghan Markle, Duchess Of Sussex's hair, and he tells GLAMOUR this can actually have a counterproductive result. "Layers can actually thin the hair out and can make the style look a little dated." If you are going through a dramatic experimental phase it is normal, but do beware. The first time you hit the hairdressers after a life changing moment or after being away for so long can cause you to make decisions that you would not usually make. Northwood added: "Sometimes we see clients that want a dramatic new hair style after a major life event. As a general rule, we tend to be cautious around any major style changes. If someone finds themselves in an emotional flux, there can be a higher risk of potential 'hair regret'." However as a good compromise, Northwood suggests asking for a range of clever cut and colour techniques from your hair stylist to give you a new and refreshed look without going down the route of anything too dramatic and regretful. Northwood also believes that many of us will ask for lots more hair cut off than usual to refresh our looks. "After previous lockdowns, we had so many requests for their hair to be cut into a bob. It's so nice to have an easy, carefree style that you can leave to air dry, particularly with summer around the corner. It's also a great style for these uncertain times," says Northwood. However, it's probably a good idea to consider the right style of bob, so make sure you are using the right language so that you do not come out of the salon feeling disappointed and with lots of regret. Opt for a style that is not too precise or polished, with longevity and that grows out well, because prevention is always better than cure. Whether you are looking for more body, a miraculous restorative keratin treatment, some fun colourful styles or your routine by-monthly trims, you need to know what your roots, midshaft and ends will need to get you ready for post-lockdown life. If you feel like you've forgotten all the hair lingo, here are the most commonly used terms you need to know, to get exactly what you need from the hairdressers post-lockdown.
