As Guy Cammarano, creativedirector at Regis Salons, points out,“Winter weather can often leave hairfeeling dull and lacklustre, but it isessential to keep your locks lookinghealthy for the ultimate glamorouslook.“Maximise the shine potential ofyour hair with an intensemoisturising shampoo and conditionerfollowed by a leave-in conditioner tocombat the winter chill. My secret tip foradded shine is to rinse your hair withcold water after every wash to make thehair cuticles lie flat, which will help toreflect the light.”Shine, volume and bounce are the keysto the hair trends this season. Feminine,carefully-curled coifs cascading with milesof style have long been a hugelyromantic look – think back to VeronicaLake and the other film stars of theforties, whose looks remain perhaps theultimate in glamour. The latest trendsmimic this, but the difference is theyhave substantially more body, volumeand bounce – it won’t require a helmetof hairspray and reduce your peripheralvision.The blow-dry has been around sincethe sixties but it’s enjoying renewedpopularity at the moment thanks to itsability to provide volume and body tothe hair quickly and effectively.Nowadays you can replicate the effect athome too, thanks to the latest hairproducts that can give you extra volume,but many enjoy the pampering andrelaxation you can get from a sessionwith a stylist.As well as adding gloss to your hair,you can add a bit of sunshine to a grimFebruary by adding glow and shine toyour skin. As skincare expert Izzy Jafferssuggests, It’s good to swap to an oil-based moisturiser rather than a water-based one. Oil products create aprotective barrier which will lock inmoisture. Oils can penetrate deeper intothe skin so are ideal for giving skin addedhydration. Izzy warns, however,“Remember that sunscreen still has to beapplied as winter sun can still damagethe skin.”A common way to make your skin lookclearer and brighter is exfoliation. It’spossible to do this at home as well butmany can be over-zealous withexfoliators, and you can sometimesoveruse them in the problems areas, endup making the skin over-sensitive, redand shiny. Over-exfoliating can also makethe area thicker and as a result you canend up exfoliating every day.The treatment available in a salon usesa vacuum action, where crystalstumble across the skin, chip off thedead skin and then are lifted away.This gives across a sense ofbrightness and rejuvenation.Microdermabrasion is aparticularly popular salon treatmentthat offers instant, visible results. Acourse of forty minute treatmentswill dramatically and visibly improvethe texture and appearance of theskin, reducing and smoothing finelines and producing a smoothermore rejuvenated skin. It works wellon acne, especially with oxygentherapy treatments.The eyes often have it whenyou’re trying to emphasise theromance and there are also options tomake the most out of what you have –offering minimum fuss but withmaximum effect. LVL lashes are analternative to lash extensions whichprovide a stunning wide-eyed look whilebeing natural to look at. By straighteningrather than curling eyelashes, you get anamazing look that is completely naturaland all your own lashes. LVL lashes – itstands for length, volume and lift – willgive you the same effect you’d get fromeyelash curlers, but lasting up to sixweeks. The result is longer lookingeyelashes.You could also combine this withLashfood, a 24 hour day and nightnatural eyelash conditioning treatmentoffering particularly fast results. It providesthe appearance of longer, thicker lashesand transforms frail and brittle lashes tobecome healthy and strong.Valentine’s Day is all about theromance and Lincolnshire’s hair andbeauty specialists can make the most ofyour natural assets so you really sparkle.Best of all, you get to sit back and relaxwhile you’re pampered to perfection.48-49:Layout 1 17/1/14 11:38 Page 2Next >
