Newest Brow Trend In Beauty & Nails/ Health & Skincare (Henna Brows)

This 14th blog we will take you through the process of creating your own unique brow look using Henna. These techniques are taught when carrying out a somatology or beauty technology course.

Henna brows will be one of the leading beauty trends of 2022, weather the client is asking for a soft, natural look, or a bold look for a runway show, henna brows are quick to do as a treatment, and they are pushing out old tinting methods that don’t last long.

Let’s compare the quick benefits of both just based on time scale, or lack in this case for tinting. (Numbers do not lie.)

How long do henna brows last?

Traditionally the stain on the skin from henna brows can last 6-8 weeks, which is significantly longer than traditional tints that only last around 2-4 weeks.

 

What’s the difference between regular tint and henna brows? Regular eyebrow tint will only tint the hairs and lasts anywhere from 2-4 weeks. Henna brows produce longer lasting results. Lasting up to 6 weeks on the hairs (and more), it also tints the skin which is great if you would like a better shape to your brows and create more definition. It is especially useful if you have a lack of brow hair to tint, the stain creates an illusion of hairs.

Let’s also look at the breakdown of how much it would effectively cost you to become a henna expert in 2022

The Henna product kit is designed to perform approximately 200 full treatments.

Cost per kit: (R3,000 ex vat). Based on a charging price of R250 per treatment, the projected profit on a full Henna Spa kit is R47, 000.

This is a great investment for 2022. Weather as a novice or experienced tinting expert. It is always good to keep up with the times.

In conclusion

Henna Brows is a new medium that is currently being sought after by various clients, from fashion shows, editorial shoots, wedding clients, matric farewells and much more.

Biggest hair colour trends for 2022 in Hairdressing

Booking a colour appointment? We’ve got ideas for you. “New year, new me” might be tired, but you know what isn’t? A hair makeover. And there’s no shortage of cool hair colour trends to try right now. While the biggest colour trends of the past two years were all about natural, pretty takes on super-low-maintenance colour, like un-done blonde and cinnamon brown shades.

 

Leading experts predict 2022 is going to be all about having fun as life starts to return to normal, well, we hope. 

That doesn’t mean you have to dye your hair pink. Rather, there are plenty of unexpected twists and tales on classic hair colour ideas that are trending as well. Why ask for basic highlights when you can order up caramel ribbons or silver champagne? Some of the world’s top experts have emphasised on the best hair colour trends to try right now, from vintage blonde to bright blue. Here’s what to consider for your next appointment.

  • Over the past year we’ve seen many blonde celebs like Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber trade in their blonde for a pretty brown hair colour, and we expect to see more following in their footsteps for 2022. Brunette colours is all about giving deeper hair energy, dimension, and detail, it’s all too easy when going for a darker shade of hair colour to apply one tone all over, a similar result to using a box dye at home. But really, I’m of the opinion that as a professional hair colourists’ its forever the responsibility of the hairdresser to give our clients something they could never get at home, and so expensive brunette is all about adding detail and interest with multiple deeper shades to make the result more dimensional and expensive looking.” 
  • If you’re interested in trying out expensive brunette, it’s important to use some specific language at the salon: “The key element to discuss with your hairstylist is that you don’t want one flat colour all over. Expensive brunette is all about depth and dimension, and so you and your colourist should agree on the deepest shade and the lightest shade you want to see in your hair and then allow the colourist to place shades between in a way they see fit to enhance your hair cut.”
  • Most retail clients will be looking at trying out these new modern trends and as a hairdresser, you should look to entice your clients and motivate them to try out these trending looks.
  • Even with the summer upon us starting twenty-twenty with some subtle tweaks will go a long way. One of the ways to start summer would be to encourage clients to go for richer, more dimensional versions of their winter and autumn looks,
  • For blondes, however that may mean adding ribbons of deeper shades of blonde to create more shade-on-shade dimension. This may also include glossing their hair to a deeper, buttery tone or playing with a fashion accent like marigold, peach or apricot. For brunette, adding a gloss to make your colour richer, and adding more amber, gold, and “root beer” tones are great options.
  • Overall, the feeling is warmer, richer, and a more lived-in-looking hair color.” And that should maintain the overall trends that seems to take over.

These are some of the few trends that you can follow, some of them are being coveted by ‘A’ lister celebs in Hollywood, most clients are always on the lookout for these kinds of trends, modern refreshed looks are going to be in demand as always – clients with full social schedules are aware of these latest trends as a hairdresser you should first in line to explore these

Men’s Hair Trends In Hairdressing

It’s time to look at the best new hairstyles for men in 2022. Many of the cool, trendy men’s hairstyles of earlier years will likely carry over to the new year, meaning that the most popular haircuts will likely continue to be fades, undercuts, pompadours, comb overs, slick backs, and even man buns or top knots, if you can pull them off.

There’s no better time than the new year to embrace a new look. Continuing from last year’s exploration of bolder cuts and styles, this year is offering up some of the best men’s looks we’ve seen in a while.

Let’s have a look at some of the top trends to expect in twenty-twenty two:

  1. Short Curls

The great thing about curly hair is that it is incredibly versatile; it can be styled in many ways and adapted to suit various lengths. That said, keeping it short is undeniably one of the easiest ways to wear it. Short curls are a fantastic way to tame your locks, reduce your style time, and they will not get tangled as easily. It can also create a masculine and cool appearance. The texture can make even the most-simple cut look interesting and sexy. Leave your hair messy for a more laid-back approach. Or keep it looking neat and polished by brushing it back.

  1. Buzz Cut with Line-Up

A line up haircut makes a statement because of its shape on the hairline, parting, or temples. It has a distinct appearance with straight lines or sharp angles, which help to create a modern and stylish cut. One of the best choices would be to wear it with a buzz cut because it is a straightforward style that benefits from adding a line up. It is a versatile option that works well with most face shapes and can highlight your facial features. It can also be created on different hair textures and types and is an excellent option for someone who wants to tame unruly hair or reduce their grooming time.

  1. Skin Fade

Skin fade is another way to add some more drama to your outlook. The truth is that this type of hair fade does not involve much hair at that point since the cut is incorporated into your skin. The best way to pair such a fade with would be with a short to medium hair on top and short facial hair.

  1. Asymmetrical layers Men’s hair

Cutting your hair in different levels of asymmetrical layers is highly beneficial for both thin and thick hair men. For guys with thin tresses, it creates an illusion of a fuller and more voluminous mane, whereas men with thick locks will get a lightened hairstyle without sacrificing the body and thickness of their thatch

 

Most of these trends have been done in 2021 but they will sure come improved in 2022. We can be sure of this because male trends tend to last a bit longer, with minor details being improved upon.

Latest Trend In Hairdressing

Right about now, we’re probably all in need of something to look forward to. It could be that major trip you’ve had to postpone for the past two years, the return of a highly anticipated TV show, or, in the case of all beauty enthusiasts, a new hairstyle! Maybe the start of a new year is your annual cue to switch up your vibe with a fresh cut, or your reason could be that 2021 was a difficult one and that you want to erase all memories, hairstyles included.

 

Either way, we understand, which is why we looked to several hairstylists for their thoughts on which looks we should add to our mood boards for the upcoming year.

Below, you’ll find 2022 hair trends which include some throwback looks that you’ll want to revisit, along with new hairstyle ideas that feature a mix of hair textures.

 

 

The verdict is in: “2022 will be the year of the chop. “The grown-out tresses of the past couple of years will be a thing of the past. Women are ready for a change and open to cuts that require a bit more maintenance.” If you prefer to ease into a more cropped style, Maine says that there’s not just one short haircut that will rule over others. “Any length from chin to collarbone will be on point. We will see them styled from sleek and shiny to bouncy and curly.”

As the name suggests, this mashup is a cross between a bob and a pixie cut. “The Bixie is more textured than a bob, but not as cropped as a pixie,”

“Long textured ponytails will also be big, as well as long dramatic braids”. “My best tip on creating this look is to tailor it to yourself. Finish off the style with a conditioning hairspray to hold all the hair in place. Finally, accessorise if you want to turn up the heat!”

Latest Perming Trends In Hairdressing

There are many perm trends and options in the current market. The most important question is, which one is right for you? In this guide we will walk you through the different types of perms and how they look and affect your permed hair.

What is a Perm? A perm or Permanent wave is a hairstyle produced by setting hair in loose to tight curls or waves and then treating it with a special perm solution so that the style lasts for several months.

You might be thinking which perm will be right for me?

Read on to learn about all the available perms and which perm will be right for you.

For anyone over the age of 20 the thought of a perm may send us ‘spiraling’ back to the 80’s. Pictures of you, or your family with hair teased so high. But believe it or not they are making a comeback, and for a good reason.

Perms and the products used to achieve them have come a long way. With advances in the chemistry behind producing the solutions used for perms there has been positive evolution in maintaining the integrity of the hair through a perming service.

One major game changer has been the Arrojo American Wave Perm. The beauty of a perm is that it is customisable for the individual’s expectations and needs. There are various “wrap patterns” that can be utilised to create the desired result of each individual client.

Here’s some Perm types:

 

  • Traditional Perm
  • Olaplex Perm
  • Braid Perm
  • Man Perm
  • American Wave Perm
  • Traditional Perm

 

Traditional perms are created using hard perm rods with a rubber band that hold the hair onto the rod. These may be the rods you remember when you think back to sitting in a salon for 6 hours getting a spiral perm, or hanging out with your grandma while she got a perm with tiny little pink perm rods to ensure that her wash and set will stay in place for the week in between beauty shop visits.

 

While stylists can still give you this look, it may not be what you desire. You also do not want to go with a traditional perm if you have had highlights in your hair, or if the integrity of your hair is compromised.

 

Traditional perms restructure up to 80% of the bonds in the hair while modern options, such as the American Wave Perm, only restructure up to 25% of the bonds in the hair leaving the hair feeling more natural and healthier.

 

We offer hairdressing courses which provide intensive training in these advanced techniques that will keep you on trend in the beauty and hairdressing sector.
