Ombre! Before and After

Ombre! Before and After

Ombre Hair is the biggest trend this season! A few weeks ago I posted about trying this style out on my hair, so here you go…. Hair by the fabulous and talented Louise at Zephyr Hair in Gillits – KZN. My hair colour before was a pretty light shade after multiple applications of highlights! As much as I loved the golden glow, with winter approaching I wanted to go darker but not too dark, so Ombre hair was the perfect fit for me. Louise working her magic! I do love the Ombre hair trend, but for my hair I didn’t want an in-your-face contrast between dark and light, so asked Louise to give it a more blended effect. She applied a darker shade over my roots into the middle of my lengths using Loreal 4.3 and leaving out the already lighter ends of my hair. After letting the colour set for 35 minutes, she ran a comb through my ends to blend the darker colour into the highlights, and then it was onto the basin for washing and rinsing. The finished look, Olé Ombre hair! I’m really loving this look and might get a bit braver next time and make it more in-your-face Ombre! If you’re a Durban girl give…

Clip in hair extensions – Review on Short Hair

Clip in hair extensions – Review on Short Hair

If you’ve got shorter hair but want to add length, you can do it in a flash with Clip in Hair Extensions. To demonstrate this I used my buddy ol’ pal and regular beauty guinea pig for StyleScoop, Louise. Now Louise has very short hair that is also layered, so transforming her short hair into long strands was bound to be difficult. Difficult, but not impossible 🙂 Because Louise’s hair was so short we had to come up with another way to make it longer. So instead of applying the clips and letting it loose as I did with mine, we styled hers a bit, adding a cute flower brooch that helped to tuck in the bits of hair that were sticking out. She pulled it all to one side to keep it looking sleek. On the opposite side Louse plaited her hair, letting the hair fall to one side only. How cute and clever is this? So see, even if your hair is super short, you can make it super long with some hair tricks. Although Louise’s hair colour is quite different to mine, with all the highlighted bits, the colour at the bottom was very similar to the…

Clip in hair extensions – Review on Long Hair

Clip in hair extensions – Review on Long Hair

Although my hair is already pretty long, sometimes I wish it could just be fuller and more glamorous you know! So, when I discovered clip in hair extensions, it was to say the least, love at first clip. I must admit, I was sceptical about these at first, I did’nt think they would hold on my hair as its super straight and very soft, but I am very impressed. I love my clip in hair extensions. Take a look… As you can see my hair is a pretty decent length, but who can so no to more long locks? Check out the transformation from the picture above. The clip in hair extensions have blended beautifully with my own hair – you can’t even tell the difference! I put these in myself (without being able to see the back of my head) and it took me about 7 minutes to get them all in there. My hair is pretty layered at the back, so I do have odd strands sticking out, but when I pull all my hair to the side or keep it all back (with no pieces in front) you can’t even see where my own hair ends. My…
