Training: Hair Up Sydney Style with a Stevie English twist.
















We put on a little training night for all our staff and some of the team from Muse hairdressing in Surry Hills. Kirsty, Jade and Verity all did hair ups and they all did different kinds. Kirsty showed what she called an 'easy' hair up, I beg to differ, it was a lot of very cool braids. Jade did a more traditional hair up with a modern twist using a hair piece/padding which was really cool. And Verity showed us a more editorial look using all hair pieces. It's so great to see our talented staff working and sharing their knowledge.

Re-Booking

We truly love all our clients here at Stevie English, and it is awful to turn them away because they can't get the appointment they need. We are getting busier all the time, and it is hard to find appointments with only a few days' notice. If you want to keep your fabulous style looking perfect- RE-BOOK!

I can't emphasise this enough. Booking an appointment four weeks from today is far easier than securing one for this weekend. It just guarantees your place, and means we don't have to disappoint you by not finding a spot. Please re-book. I'll give you a coffee!

Oscars 2010 Hair Report



The Oscars. Dresses. Glamour. HAIR. So who did we love?

Sandra Bullock: The Golden Girl. Beautiful, sleek, glossy brunette hair. She looked perfect, and she won! Does not really get any better for her.


Sarah Jessica Parker: The Risk Taker. Say what you will about her dress, but I loved her hair. The huge hairpiece is so dramatic, and you got to give her props for not being boring. I would have smoothed the front a little, but maybe it was windy!

Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz: The Old-Hollywood Glamour Girls. Long, blonde, cascading waves over one shoulder. It's a Hollywood classic, and both of these gorgeous women worked it beautifully.










Meryl Streep: The Class Act. She just gets better and better. Her simple french roll accentuates her beautiful face. She is just impeccable.
The Oscars are never usually the place for crazy styles, but these looks were classic, beautiful and effective.

Stevie English Sydney Styling

Well this year has been a bit of a blur so far, the salon has pumping! We have Verity as a finalist in the AHFAs; the team have been working their tails off, and I have been down to Melbourne to cover a shoot for Prohairstylist
Have added a few pics of Verity (workin' 'ard) at the Playground Weekender festival. Verity styled the mega cool DJ/producer James Lavelle from UNKLE, who she worked with in London.
Yeah its a tough job!

Hair Styling From Stevie English Hair



Verity has just shot some ads for Fashion Trend magazine, as well as just doing some moving image for an advert (watch this space.) We shot pics in the salon in the Stevie English Studio, which is upstairs.

You may notice they are not our normal eco-friendly O&M hair products, but don't worry- not changing product companies, it was just for this shoot. Looks good, cool hair and I think Verity was very happy with the male model... wonder why?!
