If you want your hair to turn heads, then snipper Michael
Charalambous is the man to get an appointment with. Not only can he actually
cut hair (so many of the top names fail to live up to expectations) Michael
excels in producing cuts that always make you look expensive.
You always know the mark of a good hair cut – it falls back
into place when you style it yourself and with Michael’s cuts it always does.
This time Michael took off a couple of centimetres so that
is now a flattering shoulder-length without any layers. My hair now has a lot
more body and bounce.
“We are now seeing cuts with a lot less layers,” said
Michael. “Volume may be back but
it should still look natural and not too overworked. The colour should look as
if you were born with it.”
According to the maestro, it is all about the health of the
hair. I had my hair washed and conditioned using products from the
luxurious French brand, Leonor Greyl. My locks felt and looked great. This
brand may have a hefty price tag, but they are worth every penny.
Michael styled my hair with some slight movement instead of
drying it under. It was softer and extremely flattering and lasted for
days! Even what I dried it myself, it looked good, well not as good as
when I left the salon, but that is why London’s cognoscenti have this man on
speed dial.
