The Hair Lounge

It’s not just our hair that deserves a little love…our skin does too! 💖

Okay, holy moly……where has this cream been all my life?!

I’ve been using the DNA Cellular Age Repair Crème for around three years now, and I honestly cannot believe the transformation in my skin. It’s so much more hydrated, and I have a glow that I’ve never had before!

I’m constantly getting comments about how amazing my skin looks—and when I tell people I’m 53, they’re like, “What?!” 😂

I’m not saying that to blow my own trumpet 🤣 I’m just genuinely blown away by what this cream has done for my skin.

I never thought I’d be this excited about a jar of face cream…but here we are! Safe to say, I’m never giving this one up! 💖

✨ Even us hairdressers need our maintenance! ✨

Fresh colour ✔️
Trim ✔️
Feeling like myself again ✔️

It’s funny… I’m always reminding my clients to book regular trims, use a good mask, and look after their hair. But sometimes I’m the one who lets my own hair go a little too long between appointments! 🤭

So here’s my little reminder that healthy hair isn’t about being perfect, it’s about looking after it consistently. And yes… I definitely need to take my own advice and use a hair mask a bit more often! 😂

Huge thanks to my gorgeous friend Loretta | Hairstylist Mentor Loretta for making me feel fabulous again. 💕

Be you.
The real you.
Not the edited version.

Wear your hair how you like it.
Speak how you speak.
Shine the way you shine.

The right people will love it and you🫶🏼

Humidity is not your hair’s friend!
So let’s talk humidity……because this summer in New Zealand has been more muggy than sunny ☔️
When the air is humid, moisture gets into the hair shaft and causes it to swell. This lifts the cuticle, which is why hair becomes frizzy, puffy and harder to manage……especially if your hair is fine or colour-treated, like mine🥴

This is where masking becomes essential….trust me it makes a HUGE difference!

A good hair mask helps:
✨Smooth and seal the cuticle
✨Replace lost moisture
✨Reduce frizz and flyaways
✨Keep hair softer and more controlled in humid weather

Think of it as humidity armour for your hair💛

🔥 Heat protection is vital — especially for fine or colour-treated hair.
Every time you use a straightener, curler or blow dryer without protection, you’re weakening the hair shaft and increasing breakage.

A good heat protectant helps:
✔ reduce moisture loss
✔ protect colour
✔ prevent long-term damage

It’s a small step that makes a big difference to your hair health🩷

✨ Merry Christmas & Happy New Year ✨

I just want to take a moment to say thank you to all of my amazing clients for your continued support throughout 2025.
Every appointment, chat, laugh, and coffee catch-up means more to me than you know ❤️

I’m so grateful to be able to do what I love and to look after such a wonderful bunch of people.
I can’t wait to welcome you all back in 2026 for another year of great hair, fresh colours, and feeling your best.

Wishing you and your families a very Merry Christmas🎄and a safe, happy New Year 🍾
See you in 2026 💇‍♀️✨
