Titiyo and I go wwwwaaayyyy back! I really love her…she is just a cool and wonderful person:)
Tonight is the Elle Gala and we had quite a few fashionistas at YOU today all getting ready for it.
Titiyo is presenting one of the awards tonight so we did a nice styling for the job…then she put a hat on it!
….haha actually that was the plan from the start….its all part of the styling…to get the fringe….perfect!
All I used Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Spray which is a lightweight styling spray to give a natural hold before blast drying, then random curls with my favourite Cera Wand and finished with Kevin Murphy …Dry Shampoo to make it a little more…rock and roll….Ta daaa;)
This super cool dude was in my chair today…yep Mr Liam Levi Terry:)
We had YOU closed today for New Years Eve so we took the chance to pop in and cut Helene and Liams hair.
So nice to be able to cut the families hair…thats actually how Helene and I met in Manly Beach, Sydney 25 years ago…so its always extra special…the best clients to end the year with.
Today Alex was back in at YOU to get tidied up for Christmas:)
It was really a laugh too…you see a while ago Alex introduced me to his partner in crime Sigge Eklund and I started cutting his hair….nothing strange about that….although Sigge and I really found each other and get on SUPER well ( so do I and Alex;) but….Sigge and I have really hit it off fast and…he has this amazing hair…its become a little issue…
See below;)
The truth is…I love them both equally…(even if Sigge does have better hair than you Alex;)
This talented young lady…Caroline Roxy is one of the new hot brigade of fashion bloggers making her mark on both the blog and insta worlds!
Caroline and I have worked together a few times now with styling jobs but this time it was haircut time at YOU….well…as you can see…I had my work cut out…literally!
This girl got some serious long and thick hair!
After standing on my tippy toes, bending, stretching, lifting, and brushing and blasting…we got what I think was a lovely look into Carolines hair:)
And as a bonus…I got a work out!
and….thank you to my GHD Blowdryer for making my life a little easier;)
Wow…I have just had the maaaaadest week…so much stuff going on, loads of really cool projects and meetings happening both with work and personally and there just isn´t enough hours in the day…
I simply have not had time to sit down and blog anything worth blogging…sorry guys!
Anyway…this week has been busy but its also been so great…especially Friday when my neighbour here on SOFIS MODE… Miss Sofi Fahrman joined me at YOU to film something that we think will be really cool and something new for theYOUway.com (coming soon…I´ll keep you posted;)
Today was such a great day..and…not only because its still reasonably warm outside and that Helene and I managed to take a lovely walk in the city but because I had such a great experience with my client this morning:)
Martin “Miss Inga” Eriksson was in my chair and apart from being a really lovely person there was something special with what we did today.
I love this part of my work because it is just so wonderful to see people look themselves in my mirror and like who they see (not me…themselves;)
Martin had just finished shooting a dual campaign for a great Swedish fashion brand…one female campaign as “Miss Inga” and was now going to shoot the male…Martin Eriksson…part.
So he came in with his long hair and said…now I want to look like a boy again.
So thats what we did!
He was so cool and just wanted it off…no regrets!
I dont know what you think but I think Martin looks absolutely AMAZING…
Doing Martins hair today wasn´t only a lovely experience with a super guy but it was actually a really special experience…to cut “Miss Ingas” hair off and find …Martin….something that really got me…to feel such passion for my trade after 31 years is truly a gift.
Deep and cool for me.
I know Martin really LOVED it…he told me… and showed it…so fun…but the best part was when Martin stood up and said…I love it..its so me…and…
it´s so PRADA!
Oh…and if you look closely at the before and after pics you will notice that even my phone looked happier as an added bonus;)
