Brisbane: Hair emergency averted

 Outside  Salon

After 3 months of helmet hair I decided I better detangle and trim my travelling mop ahead of the wedding at Marcoola Beach. The lovely folk at Togninis bravely offered to tame my tresses on Saturday morning and after perking me up with a complimentary flat white (NZ and Australia's perfect coffee combo between a latte and a cappuccino) and a chill out in the massage chair Alisha my Canadidan stylist got chopping. In hairdresser speak the long layers at the front had become disconnected from the length, in reality, my all-in-one shampoo, conditioner, detergent and soap hadn't been kind to my follicles.

During  Alisha

Alisha subtly suggested I get the conditioning treatment and I loved the chocolate analogy she used to describe it. Apparently each piece of hair is like a peanut m&m (now she had my attention) and the hair's protective layer is the candy coating, the main body is the chocolate and the core of the hair is the nut. When the protective coating is damaged the chocolate goodness melts, so a quick treatment strengthens and gives shine to your suffering strands.

Before AFTER

She worked wonders with those little scissors and as you can see from the before and after shot it was a big improvement. She even clipped a feather in my cap, a length of hair dyed pink and black that she attached at my roots for some added fun. The vibe at Togninis is fun but the results are pure professional, thanks so much guys!
