Introducing the Pantone Color of the Year 2020, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue, a timeless and enduring blue hue elegant in its simplicity. Suggestive of the sky at dusk, the reassuring qualities of Classic Blue offer the promise of protection; highlighting our desire for a dependable and stable foundation from which to build.

Check out this beautiful multi dimensional colour by Darby! Here’s the rundown and some very wise words from Darby.. “I’ve been highlighting Alison’s hair for a while now and during our most recent consultation we both agreed that it was starting to look one-dimensional and lacklustre. In order to rectify this, I strategically shadowed her hair to create dimension using my freehand painting technique and sectioning pattern! Believe it or not, the only area that I highlighted for this colour was the hairline!
I consult my clients every single time they visit the salon, no matter how long I have been colouring their hair. Don’t fall into the rut of simply “processing” your regular clients. Approach them with the same enthusiasm and creativity that you did the very first time that they sat in your chair and they’ll continue to visit you for years to come.”

TUESDAY TRANSFORMATION Natalie hasn’t had her hair done since January and wanted a lift! Nicole came through and took some length off before colouring so no deliberately placed colour was cut off. Natalie wanted a low maintenance look so Mikey highlighted with foiling to the root and drop foiling (teased off scalp) Mikey then zone toned to create a lived in colour and Nicole completed the make over with her signature Disco cutting and styling techniques 🥰 swipe for before

Sometimes a toner between visits isn’t quite enough, but you don’t always need a full colour. In cases like this, Paige turned to a quarter head of highlights to refresh and brighten in the right spots. Paige was able to achieve this stunning refresh by using ‘The Claudia’ one of our signature colouring techniques. Colour and Style by Paige 💫

HMDS Wellness Day.. As a part of our wellness days which we host annually for the team, we had the amazing @dario_hairstylist from DCI education come and talk to the team about the newest approach to client consultations and talking about hair psychology! WOW Dario is so knowledgable and it was incredible to learn some new ways for our team to look after themselves and our clients better 💖 We then headed to @totalfusionplatinum where we were taken through a beautiful VinYin style yoga class by the amazing Nina from @sukhino_ Its important to look after ourselves and starting with our mind is an amazing place to start.
Thank you Dario and Nina and thank you to the team, you’re all incredible!

When dealing with naturally light hair, a shadow isn’t an option as it can often lead to unnecessary warmth.. How do you create a lived in look without a shadow? Go back to foiling fundamentals! Baby fine highlights and alternate between bleach and tint. Mikey used the ‘Claudia’ sectioning pattern here which allows for a face frame and plenty of colour in the right spots. We love a healthy shiny blonde! Mikey and Nicole teamed up to create this beautiful Disco Signature look.
