Burlesque's Hair How to...

Every month we're going to post a new video showing you how to create a style you might have seen and loved but didn't know where to start. And with Valentine's Day fast approaching we're serving up two for you to choose from for the big day... and night ;)

 

But make sure you check back on our Facebook page to tell us what styles you like us to film next.

 

Enjoy xx

 

Sunday openings...

We know how busy you all are - and never moreso than at Christmas. We also know that looking ream (!) for the party season is almost as important as Christmas shopping. So how do we fit it all in? Two words... Sunday opening!

Yep from next week, we'll be open on Sundays from 10am - 4pm. Sooo just to be clear, we'll be open on Sunday 11 December and Sunday 18 December from 10-4pm.

See you there?! xx

What do you get the girl - or boy - who has everything?

We all know that Christmas is coming and we're probably all behind with our preparations. Well before you rush out to the shops or online to make that panic purchase, save yourself hassle - and possibly the cold shoulder with one of our gift cards.

Available from £5 to £20 and in all 3 salons (Newport, Caerleon and Usk), you know they'll get used and they fit snuggly into a Christmas card so you'll kill two birds with one stone. 

So tick at least one person off the list next time you're in the salon by asking one of the team for a Burlesque gift card :)

Christmas. Done!

Ponytail... Quick fix solution or Style Hero?

The party period is looming and we are all starting to think about what we will be wearing, how we will accesorize and most importantly the HAIR!  If you look towards Chanel and DKNY, most designers are sending the models down the runway with glossy, sleek and ultra sophisticated ponytails.  Quick fix solution or style hero? We're thinking style hero and here's how to master the perfect ponytail..

  • Start with clean hair then work the products through the hair.  
  • Comb through a light mist of Joy Lotion then dry the hair with no root lift (paddle brushes are recommended to smooth out any kinks).  
  • Straighten the hair using GHD Heat Protector and comb the hair back into a high ponytail, on or above the crown, don't be scared to go too high.  
  • Finish with a shine spray, we recommend (Joico Shine Spray).  
  • The ponytail looks best poker straight, like a funnel.  

 

Wanting to unleash your creativity?  Why not add diversity by trying it with a quiff or backcombing.... be imaginative!!
