WELCOME TO THE VOGUE SALON SEASON…

We are incredibly excited to be the only salon in Derbyshire taking part in Vogue’s Salon Season, a month-long celebration of modern, professional hair treatments and styling in association with Kérastase.

Here’s how it works:

  • Vogue’s beauty director, Nicola Moulton, has presented an edit of four modern hair looks that can be tailor-made to suit the condition of your hair.
  • Simply book a Vogue blow-dry at any of our salons from now until the end of October and you will receive a complimentary Fusio Dose reconditioning ritual, usually priced £15.
  • Appointments are with selected stylists across the salon group and are available Monday to Saturday, subject to availability.
  • If you are booking online, please select ‘extension blow-dry’. If you are booking by phone just book a Vogue blow dry and your stylist will help choose the right ritual and style for you.
  • More details can be found in the October edition of Vogue.

LOOK #1 SHOW OF STRENGTH

A sleek, glossy blow-dry with dazzling, mirror-like shine, the secret to this look is that the healthier your hair is, the more light it can reflect. The gently curled-under ends keep things modern and not too poker-straight.

LOOK #2 LIGHT FANTASTIC

Gentle, luxe-looking waves combined with glossy, freshly rejuvenated colour are the key to ensuring natural movement stays sophisticated. Note the gleam in every undulating wave.

1620-1

LOOK #3 SHINE-A-PORTER

Your stylist will personalise a modern updo especially for you. Choose a sleek, structural chignon, plait or a ponytail. The radiant elixir shine will make this style stand out.

1620-2

LOOK #4 SALON SECRET

The “no blow-dry” blow-dry: so subtle and understated, it just looks like you’ve woken up like that. Minimal root lift, sleek through the middle with naturally tumbling ends.

1620-3

When you book a Vogue blow dry you will receive a bespoke Fusio Dose ritual, usually priced £15.

WHAT IS SMARTBOND?

SMARTBOND is L’Oréal Professionnel’s new smart ingredient added to your colour to minimise any potential damage & protect your hair. SMARTBOND is designed to protect the bonds deep within the hair & strengthen them during colouring & lightening processes, resulting in hair that is stronger, softer, and shinier.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

SMARTBOND is a two-step process which allows the colourist to protect the hair & prevent damage during a technical service.

Loreal_smartbond_17july16_6W5A2058

  • SMARTBOND Step 1 contains maleic acid which works smartly during the chemical process, it limits the oxidative stress and preserves the strong bonds & captures the ions and allows the reconstruction of the weak bonds.
  • SMARTBOND Step 2 is applied to the hair once the colour or pre-lightener is removed as a pre-shampoo. It also contains maleic acid which continues to capture the ions to allow the weaker bonds to reform. It contains a blend of ceramides & polymers to provide condition & shine to the hair.
  • SMARTBOND customers can re-inforce the in salon service with Step 3, an at home conditioner (RRP £16.49) that continuously strengthens the fibre week after week, allowing you to keep the outstanding salon result simply at home by using once a week for 1-3 minutes.

  1. Rediscover the shine, evenness & softness of natural hair
  2. Hair fibre will have more bonds resulting in healthy and strong hair
  3. The smart formula leaves hair with a smooth luxurious ceramic feel with a texture that is less swollen & coarse
