balmain-extensions.jpgHair extensions have become the must-have accessory of celebrities throughout the world, and have never been so accessible to the average girl about town.

Whereas a decade ago having hair extensions meant sitting in a styling chair for the best part of a day, with a result that looked somewhat synthetic and bonds that were easily detected - today hair extensions represent a much quicker and more attractive option.

As well as the ethical improvements in the way that human hair extensions are made, there have been a number of product developments that have led to a five-fold growth in the extensions business in the five years from 2002 to 2007.

matthew-news.jpgThe concept of registration has cropped up a couple of times over the past few days - in two very different contexts.

At the beginning of the week I heard from a very angry salon owner in the Hampshire borough of Rushmoor. The reason said hairdresser was so disgruntled was news that she was expected to fork out nearly £2,000 in order to register her premises and all her stylists with the local Environmental Health Service.

Forget sprinkling everyday talc onto hair to absorb moisture and create texture, today's stylists are graced with numerous products, dry shampoos and powders that have taken this old-fashioned technique and moved it into the modern age.

Ingredients such as clay and silica enhance results, with some offering dry shampoo properties, sucking up grease and adding texture, while others contain a coloured pigment that can enhance the colour of the hair with a matte finish.

Hair powders also come in a variety of guises from those that can be cocktailed with other styling products to give a solid hold, to those that turn into a styling paste when rubbed through the hands.

bruce-willis-2.jpgThin may be deemed a good look on the catwalk and celebrities love nothing more than being svelte, but thinning hair? Now that's a look that no one wants.

Unfortunately, thinning hair is a problem for many men and one that, as hairdressers, is difficult to overcome.

Being a little thin on top is not all bad news though as the likes of Bruce Willis, Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham have hardly been set back in their high-profile careers by wispy thatches and have instead embraced the short and masculine haircut.

Make time for training

Learning is the key to success and every salon should place huge emphasis on training. Ensure you book the time out for your staff to undertake training as it really is time and money well spent. The beginning of the week tends to be the quietest time, but don't forget those who may usually have a day off that day - no-one should miss out on training.

A Money Saving Idea for your Salon from Procare

procare-top.jpg

Wouldn't it be great if you had a clever little gadget that could save your business time and money and deliver you perfect results every time?

Now imagine that gadget is easy to use, available in a selection of bright easy-on-the-eye colours and portable so that you could take it from salon to salon.

That's the exact concept Amanda Dicker, concept director at The Chapel, London, bought into when she chose the Procare 24*7 Automatic Hair Foil Dispensing System and she and her team just haven't looked back.

"The thing I love about the 24*7 is that we now have perfect foils every time and, because we no longer have to manually prepare the foil, we've got extra time to spend with customers," says Amanda.

"This allows us to build great relationships with them and to achieve better results and retention rates. Details like this make a real impression and help to keep our guests happy."

Saving Your Salon Money

The Procare 24*7 Automatic hair foil dispensing system produces between one and 99 foils at the press of a button.

procare-calculator.jpg

  • Saving you money - With no cutting or tearing, the 24*7 limits wastage costs and saves you money

  • Optimising your time - Cutting foils is one of the most tedious, time consuming jobs in the salon; the 24*7 removes that labour and the monotony 

  • Giving a professional image - Each foil is uniform in size and fold length to present a professional image for your salon.


Customisable for Your Needs

Available in five bright colours - pink, blue, green, black and white - the 24*7 produces the perfect foils for you at the press of a button:

  • procare-map.jpgOptional widths - Use 100mm or 120mm to suit your needs


  • Choose your length - Procare have ascertained the four most popular sized foils for you to choose from


  • Optimum fold lengths - from no fold to 15mm whatever works for your client's hair.


Find Out More about the 24*7

Billie Crago, salon owner at The Chapel, Islington, loves the freedom that her 24*7 gives her.

She says: "Even when I have a really hectic schedule I know I can just tap in the number of foils I want and leave the 24*7 to prepare them while I deal with other things - it's great."

If you'd like to experience the same fantastic benefits as Billie or would just like to find out more about the 24*7 visit www.hairfoil.com
