2015 Hair Inspiration

The new year always inspires change, bringing with it a fresh wave of hair and style inspiration. For us 2015 is all about shorter lengths, wind-swept side parts, slicked back lengths and soft metallic hues. All images via pinterest.

A Little Bit of Texture

This Summer we’re loving powder products to add grit, texture and volume to hair of all lengths. Our salon favourites are the Eleven Australia I Want Body Volume Powder and the cult classic Kevin.Murphy Powder.Puff.

Just sprinkle your chosen powder product onto the roots of your hair and lightly work it in – then say hello to instant lift and volume. You can also work a small amount of powder through your mid-length and ends for a quick body boost.

Powder products also work wonders for buns and ponytails. Tap some powder into your roots before styling to create volume and lift for bouffant-styles. After styling add a tiny bit more through your lengths for movement and texture, before finishing up with hairspray.

Variety on King William 2014

Our team recently styled hair for the Variety on King William luncheon parade, which kicked off the Adelaide Fashion Festival.  We opted for a low ponytail, inspired by Jason Wu’s Spring 2015 show, with added volume. We also recreated the style for promotional shoots in the Advertiser and Messenger – check out the excitement below!

New at Yots – Kevin.Murphy Plumping.Line

We love nothing more than a product update so we’re excited to welcome the latest addition to the Kevin.Murphy range into our salons! Introducing Plumping.Line – a wash, rinse and treatment combo that promises to leave your hair thicker and fuller.

“The PLUMPING line became a reality because of all the successes I had seen with eyelash thickening and lengthening products. The results I saw were quite astonishing because it actually works.  This technology was the inspiration for the line but I also looked at the successes that were being achieved with these types of men’s products as well. I then realised that there was nothing truly feminine on the market that helped women both on an emotional level and a therapeutic level” – Kevin Murphy

 

Plumping.Wash is a thickening shampoo for thinning hair. Ginger Root and Nettle Extracts densify fine strands, stimulating and nourishing the scalp. Plumping.Rinse thickens and strengthens hair, with added protective and hydrating benefits. Finish up with Body.Mass uses eyelash thickening technology, giving hair an instant boost and improving its condition over time. We’ve given the line a test-run – the products feel beautiful and work like a dream. We’re predicting that this line will fly off the shelves, so give them a try!

We Love: The Faux Undercut

Braided faux undercuts have been all over the red carpets and runways of late, most notably worn by Cara Delevingne at last year’s Met Gala. We’re dubbing the style our pick for the upcoming 2014 formal season – equal parts edgy, wearable and understated.

To recreate this look at home, begin by parting your hair deeply to one side, using the end of your eyebrow as a guide. Pin the parted hair out of the way. Using the hair on the undercut side, create between one and three horizontal braids, as close to the scalp as possible – for a stand out look we love french braids and dutch braids. When you reach the back of your head, pin each braid using a bobby pin. Remove the pin holding your remaining hair on the parted side, which will move to hide the pins securing the braids. For an amped up look, lightly tease the hair at the top of your head, and use a texturising spray on your loose hair.

Product Spotlight: Kevin Murphy Angel Wash

Today we’re putting the spotlight on a hair care combo that has reached a cult status in our salons. Over the past year, Kevin.Murphy’s Angel.Wash and Angel.Rinse have become our most popular products, among our stylists and clients alike. The duo are the perfect cocktail for adding back moisture and volume to fine or damaged hair, whilst preventing colour fade. We also love the light citrusy scent from tangerine and grapefruit peel oil.

Angel Wash: Angel.Wash is sulphate and paraben free and leaves hair feeling soft, refreshed and revitalised. Containing a powerful blend of antioxidants to prevent colour fade, Angel.Wash also contains mango and cocoa butters, grapefruit, green-tea and lavender extracts and aloe esters to protect and repair hair. With added milk proteins for nourishment, Angel.Wash won’t strip the natural oils from your hair, controlling and smoothing out frizz. Our clients have called it their ‘holy grail’ shampoo, and we’re inclined to agree. 

Angel Rinse: Like its shampoo counterpart, Angel.Rinse is delicate enough for every-day use. Formulated to nourish fine, coloured hair, Angel.Rinse is free from parabens and sodium laurel sulfate and enriched with mango and cocoa butters and chamomile. Geranium flower oil gives your hair a natural shine and manageability, while olive oil esters work to repair damaged hair at a cellular level. Although the bottle recommends use for fine coloured hair, we’ve found that clients of all hair types rave about Angel.Rinse – remember that hair care is all about finding the product that works best for you.
