This world of instant knowledge is a breeding ground for unrealistic expectations.

Today we are inundated with a plethora of pictures of amazing transformations by hair artist all over the world. All thanks to Instagram, YouTube and TikTok. These platforms keep us up to date with everything new and trending in the world of hair.

Hair coloring is science, it takes a vast amount of product and hair knowledge, experience and investment into amazing products, for the transformation.

Often, what social media stars fail to mention is the true time its taken to achieve these insta-famous transformations, many have spent a full day with a top stylist.

So with your phone in hand prepared with 10 Pinterest boards you enter the salon and begin the conversation with your stylist, your smile starts to dissipate as they gently try to break it to you that you may not get that in one go, and the cost of this transformation.

It's not that we don't want to and it's certainly not that they don’t want to charge you more money. These transformations are like having 5 hair appointments in one day, they take time and care, which is why it has such a hefty price tag.

Ultimately we want to make you happy, your happiness is the single reason we stylists put up with the long days, the absents of bathroom breaks and staying late because your hair was thicker and longer than expected.

Stylist love their job and love delivering that feeling of euphoria when your stylist makes you look and feel over the top.

Stylist's are creative people, natural risk takers and they have to reign that back. In most cases the only time a clients hair usually goes wrong is when a stylist buckles under pressure to do something they aren't more than 90% convinced they should. When that gamble doesn't pay off, they are slated all over the internet saying they are a bad hairdresser.

Dream hair is possible and with the right advice and guidance by a good stylist, satisfaction can be achieved. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
