Smile Re: Womens Question - Bris/Hair/Foils

just read these and i just cant understand how it takes 5 hours?!!?when you are trained in the NVQ you only have, i think it has been lengthened these days, to 1 1/4 hours (only 3/4 hour when i trained) to apply a full head of highlights to pass that module.If it was extremely thick hair maybe a little longer though.
as long as it looks fab at the end though.

So has anyone got a good hairdresser, we finally found a OK one young aussie girl, but shes off to UK to live end of june.

Hair heres a real problem the cutting is very backward/basic, colour styles erm mullet inspired, the humidity in summer sends any hair into severe frizz and makes any style impossible to hold, and salt and pools dont exactly help. Plus given the wages for hairdressers are about $400 a week many salons will charge best part of that to do a full head of foils on long hair
