At atime when the Prime Minister’s wifehas a tattoo and acting royalty inDame Helen Mirren can appear onthe red carpet with pink hair, it’sclear that the nation is taking morerisks when it comes to creating theirlook.That’s not to say that we expect tosee TV newsreaders with mohawksand many of us are still perhapsunsure about making a really boldstatement, but maybe you want toget out of your comfort zone to make asplash at a party or admire the idea butdon’t want to commit to a radical newimage immediately. Lincolnshire’sspecialists can certainly help with a hostof temporary solutions that will allow youto experiment, as well as taking theircues from edgy fashion to create newstyles that offer a touch of danger butwork just as well in the office.One obvious way to make a radicalchange to your look is via hair extensions.Pastel tones and colour flashes areabsolutely on trend this season andadding colour is a great way to instantlytransform your style – but making use ofextensions means that you don’t sufferthe damage and dryness associated withdyeing. The quality of extensionscontinues to improve as well and thesedays it’s often impossible to see the joinwith the extensions fitting perfectly withyour own hair and providing just asmuch flexibility, even on those you canattach yourselves at home.If you want a splash of colour withoutgoing for extensions, you’re not alone. Infact a recent survey suggests that over60% of British women now regularly dyetheir hair at home. If you’re growing yourhair out, a colour change can help makethe process far less painful – providing abit of interest while you trudge throughthe awkward in-between stage.We all know the downside of dyinghair too frequently but there are now ahuge number of high quality methodsthat make it easier and safer than ever,even if you’re doing it at home – theycan replenish, revive and maintain lostpigments, reintroducing faded or losttones back into coloured hair withoutusing any ammonia or peroxide. If you’relooking for a radical change, however,you should consult a professional –fruitless attempts to get that shade you’reafter will simply lead to a deterioration inits condition and make it harder to keepthe tone in the hair.Changing from brunette to blonde isan obvious moment where a stylist willbe hugely important. If you’re going for aradical change like that, you may want togo for a short crop too, as you’ll get astriking crisp colour. Long to short canmake just as big an impact as going inthe opposite direction and stars such asMiley Cyrus are illustrating how flexible ashorter cut can be.While your hair is the most obviousway to change your look there are otheroptions. While body art can still be a steptoo far for some, they are becomingmore and more commonplace (look atSamantha Cameron for Exhibit A). Ifyou’re thinking about taking the plungethen experts across Lincolnshire can helpand in places like Indy n Ink in Grimsby,the atmosphere is a world away from theforbidding tattoo parlours of the past.The consultative and artistic approachmost resembles a top hair and beautysalon and the experts can answer all yourquestions and make a host of usefulsuggestions.While some of the striking looks on thecatwalk aren’t the kind of thing thattranslate well to the High Street,Lincolnshire’s stylists are takinginspiration and proving you can bring acutting edge to your day-to-day style.PHOTO: SHUTTERSTOCK.COM/DALLAS EVENTS INC38-39_Layout 1 17/08/2015 12:51 Page 2Next >
