We're cutting!

Our first cutting session today. How exciting!
There is so much to remember, sectioning, angles, guidelines, palming, combing, sitting, standing, crossing legs. Phew!






Team building!

Another fab team building session today with Alexis.
It was all about communication skills this time. It was hard to start with but eventually we got he hang of it.


We think this picture sums the words team building, perfectly!

Using Neal & Wolf Silk

A client came in his morning complaining she could never manage to get her hair smooth.
We recommended the Neal & Wolf Silk 


Just applying a small amount and distributing it through the hair before blow drying.


The results speak for themselves!




The client was very pleased. 
To see Neal & Wolf products for yourself visit.





Are these level twos?

Was what Lisa got asked today when we were working on clients! 
We were told we were very good and acted in a professional way.
What a boost for us after only 10 weeks! 

Here we are in action.


If we didn't have clients, we practised our setting techniques ready for our next session.
