April Buzan Hairdressing

We've finally done it! 🎉

A huge thank you to every single person who applied to become one of our very first BOXED Girls. I honestly can't tell you how much I appreciate all the likes, shares, follows, comments and applications. The support for BOXED has been incredible, and choosing just three people was genuinely so much harder than I expected.

Congratulations to our first BOXED Girls:
💛 Lauren Proud
🩵 Ashley M
🩷 Lille Waddington

I can't wait for you all to follow their journey over the next month as they unbox their routines, put them to the test, and share their honest thoughts along the way.

Two toners. One routine.
They both keep your blonde bright, but they work differently.
Instead of telling you there's only one "right" way, I'd rather give you the chance to discover which one works best for your hair and your routine.
💜 Which one do you think you'd end up reaching for the most?

If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I don't hype products just because they're popular.

K18 has genuinely earned its place on my shelf.

The technology behind it is incredible, it's my number one go-to bond builder, and it's one of the few products I recommend again and again because I consistently see results.

Is it expensive? Yep.

Is it worth it if your hair is damaged, breaking, or feeling like it's had one too many chemical services? Absolutely.

No product is a magic wand, but if I could only keep one bond-building treatment in the salon, this would be it.

Have you tried K18? I'd love to know what you thought. 🤍

Warning: this reel may make you want to book a head spa immediately... 🤤
That was genuinely drool-worthy. I felt like I was floating, and I can't remember the last time someone else washed my hair. If you've been thinking about booking one... do it.
Thanks Dani and the whole team at Smoke & Mirrors for such a relaxing afternoon. The head spa was incredible,
I also love supporting other businesses in our industry. We all have different strengths, and I think that's exactly what makes hairdressing so special.
So... should this become a series?
Who's adopting me for an afternoon next?

Three blondes. Three different hair needs.
There isn't one routine that's right for everyone, and that's exactly why I created BOXED.
So... which one are you?
🧡 Signature Blonde
💜 Cool Blonde
🤍 Bond Repair

So excited to see the content from today thank you so much and Mr BOXED AKA

I'm looking for 3 women to experience BOXED before launch! ✨
I'm choosing one woman for each of my BOXED routines:
🤍 Signature Blonde
💜 Cool Blonde
🩷 Bond Repair
Each selected woman will receive a complimentary BOXED routine valued at over NZ$300.
In return, I'd love you to use your routine as part of your normal haircare and capture your journey along the way. This could include your unboxing, using the products, sharing your thoughts, and showing your results.
If you're local to Christchurch, I'd also love to photograph your hair before and after your BOXED journey. If you're not local, don't worry, you're still welcome to apply!
No professional filming needed. Your phone and your honest experience are exactly what I'm looking for.
✨ How to apply:
🤍 Comment which BOXED routine you think suits your hair and tell me why you'd be the perfect fit.
💜 Join the BOXED VIP Waitlist (link in my bio).
🩷 Tag a friend who'd love this opportunity.
🤍 Share this reel to your story and tag so I can see it.
Not sure which routine is right for you? Head to my profile and watch my routine reels before applying.
I'll choose the three women whose hair is the best match for each routine. Before sending the boxes, I may ask for a couple of photos of your current hair to make sure you've been matched with the right routine.
I can't wait to see your entries! 🤍

Some blondes just can't be rushed.

This transformation took patience, careful planning, and knowing when to put the health of the hair first. Sometimes the best results come from trusting the process.

And because Lily was heading to her formal, I even dusted off my upstyling skills. I'd say I didn't do too badly for someone who hasn't done a formal hair-up this decade.

119... then 199! SO GRATEFUL

We added another 80 VIPs this week, which means we're now sitting at 199 VIPs... just ONE away from our goal of 200!

Thank you so much to everyone who's joined the VIP waitlist and followed along. Seeing this little idea grow into something real has been pretty special.

And don't go anywhere...

I've got a really exciting giveaway coming later this week that I think you're going to love, so keep an eye on the page. Trust me, you won't want to miss this one.
