Our Hair Heroes of 2011

By RMUK on December 29th, 2011

Cheryl Cole
She has gone from brunette and bouffant to blonde and sassy but whatever Cheryl Cole does with it, the nation’s women love her hair. The 28-year-old has been voted Britain’s hair icon for 2011 with thousands envious of her thick, full locks.
 
Jessie J
Best known for her poker straight, ink black bob with a perfect fringe slashed above the eyes , Jessie J brought precision cutting to the forefront of fashion this year with her must-have head-hugging cut in a pristine shade of purest black. This year also saw Jessie experiment with wigs and extensions, showing off a violet bob and silver dip-dye lengths as well as glamorous waves and curls.
 
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
The latest addition to the Royal Family has fast become a firm favourite with the press and public alike thanks to her chic outfits and fabulously blow-dried bouffant. 
Making glossy, gorgeous, natural-looking luxury a trend in itself.
 
Rihanna
A constant style chameleon, Rihanna’s styles this year have ranged from bright red corkscrew curls to a demure blonde for her photoshoot for Vogue magazine
 
Katy Perry
She was announced as the face (and hair) of ghd in April 2011 and Katy Perry continued to keep everyone talking about her barnet throughout the year with colour changes a-go-go. When Katy Perry dyed her hair pink, it didn’t come as that much of a shock to fans as she has been known to change the colour of her locks quite often. From black and pink to blonde and blue, this year has seen Katy give her pin-up girl style a comic-book colourful twist.
 
 
Alexa Chung
Alexa always manages to style her pared-down bob in different ways to keep it looking fresh and new. Straight locks suit the cut of the bob giving a more boyish charm, while gentle waves help soften the style making it a more feminine and vintage look. Alexa has become known as Queen Bee of balyage.
 ”I just like her tossed off hair. It’s chopped, she lets her natural texture come out, she doesn’t look tortured with blow dryers or straightening irons or anything. She is sexy, obviously very sexy, but in a fresh and kind of tomboy-ish way.”
 
Lady Gaga
The queen of kook tamed things down a bit in 2011, switching her OTT multi-coloured wigs for high-octane glamour – albeit with a trademark Gaga twist. 
Mint green bouffants, silver chignons and pastel pink ponytails all ensured the first lady of pop stayed firmly in the spotlight this year.

Michelle Williams at Marilyn premiere with a new crop hair

By RMUK on November 30th, 2011

You can see Michelle’s new crop hair looks quite matte and natural, there isn’t much fuss. This is because there has been very little product applied when dry as a finisher.

How to achieve the crop hair look?

Use a leave in conditioner to soften the hair.

Work L’Oreal Natural Liss through the hair and begin drying on a medium heat.

Using a vent brush, brush the hair from side to side in opposite directions.

Follow the head shape to create a natural shape to the hair and remember to direct the hair downwards in the direction of the neck when at the back.

Use your fingers to twist the ends of the fringe so it kicks out a little.

When the hair gets almost dry, you will have a good idea of where the hair is parting but do not create a parting, the hair needs to naturally sweep over.

Use your fingers to move the hair into place.

To get the fringe to perfectly kick, rub your fingers together with ends in between.

Finish with L’Oreal Infinium hairspray or L’Oreal Fixing Mist

If you would like a crop hair cut like Michelle’s book into our hair salon in Leeds through the booking form here

Frankie Sandford

By RMUK on May 25th, 2011

Frankie Sandford from The Saturdays may not have a very unique style, she sure has a great one. You could probably best describe her style as casual rock chic. From time to time she dresses quite edgy, but most of the time she goes for the more casual look. Jealous? Don’t be. Frankie’s style is actually quite simple and basic.
