Longest hair I've trimmed - and Grace is still growing it!
Grace has the longest hair I've ever had the pleasure to cut. Mind you I only have to cut less than one centimetre off her hair every few months, as that is all that is needed. Grace had her hair cut from waist to chest length around mid to late 2009 and has been growing it ever since. Grace is of mixed Asian and European ethnicity, but is overwhelmingly Asian. Her mother is Chinese and her father is Indian with a little bit of European. Here is how Grace told me she looks after her hair:
" I wash my hair weekly only. My weekly routine is to whisk 1 or 2 whole eggs with olive or macadamia oil, like a mask, have it sit in my hair for 30 minutes or more, then shampoo it out (with lukewarm water, of course, because the egg will cook in hot water), and condition. I lightly oil my hair during the week too, with argan or olive oil, which also helps me to arrange it in braids or a bun. I rarely wear it loose. I don't use blowdryers, curling irons, or anything like that. I think my hair is too fragile. I can't dye my hair because of severe allergies."
Thanks for sharing your story Grace. - Bev Ryrie - mobile hairdresser - Melbourne - 8-5-2017

More clients are having their hair permed
More clients are asking for perms now. Most are asking for soft perms. Bec was after a soft hair perm but with a bit more curl than a beach wave perm. Bec had never had a perm before, had quite a bit cut off her hair and changed her look significantly.
This photo was taken straight after the perm. Bec wanted something that was soft enough to leave to dry naturally. She can also blow dry her hair and tong it for bigger curls.
For more information about perms go to my perm page.

Vintage hairstyles are still very popular - including victory rolls.
Hairstyles that I'm finding are still very popular are vintage hairstyles. Victory rolls, French rolls and beehives are not only being worn for theme parties, but are worn as formal hairstyles and wedding hairstyles.
Victory rolls were a popular 1940's hairstyle worn by actresses including Betty Grabble, Rita Hayworth, Angela Lansbury and Lucille Ball. Some celebrities seen wearing victory rolls in more recent times were Katy Perry, Gwen Stefani, Lady Gaga, Christina Aguelera, Paloma Faith, Kelly Osbourne, Dita Von Teese and Rihanna.
