Finding a great hairstylist is no mean feat. So, I was
delighted to discover Emma, at London’s renowned Daniel Galvin salon. She knows my hair’s texture and works with it
to produce a really good blow-dry which keeps for a good few days.
“This summer is all about natural movement,” she says.
“Think width and not volume. You want your roots smoother with some wave at the
ends. We are also seeing a lot of people ask for “shattered ends” when they
have their hair cut.” Though she quickly hastened that would not work on my
hair.
Another trend being seen this summer, according to Emma, is
the rise of hair accessories. Think ornate headbands or flowers.
To keep hair in good condition over the summer, Emma
suggests using your hairdryer and heated appliances as little as possible.
“Rough dry your hair until it is almost dry and then smooth it out with a round
brush, if you have got the type of hair that you can’t leave to air-dry,” she
advises. “Start at the back and work forwards. If you are in a hurry, rough dry
the underneath and just smooth out the top.
Alternatively, leave it to dry naturally and then quickly
run tongs through pieces so you get a lovely tousled look.
After being in the hands of Emma my hair looked absolutely
amazing. There is nothing like a trip to the Daniel Galvin salon to make you
feel glam.
