Melissa Scott Hair

A wee Saturday post, since I’m slacking with the content these days 📸

I could do the soft sunkissed colours all day everyday 😍✨

The high & textured updo 🤩 Loving this style recently. It was a popular choice for the formals this year 👑

Starting the week with fresh balayage 🤩🪄 that blend though 😍

I’ll get back to all messages tomorrow 💌 please don’t leave it too late to book your summer hair appointment 🩵☁️

Back to work after an amazing trip to Mexico with the best wee work fam (& Courteney who is basically one of us anyway 😂) 🇲🇽✈️☀️ Having our 21st, 30th & 40th birthdays in the one year called for celebrations 🥳 won’t forget it 😎🥰

I’ll be getting back to all messages later today 🩵☁️

That’s me finished up & ready to head off to Mexico ✈️
Thanks for keeping me so busy as always! I’ll be back to work on Wednesday 12th June. Messages will be replied to then 🩵☁️

Camera roll clear out 📸 New Year’s Resolution is to be more consistent with social media & stop posting client’s hair pics months after their appointment 🫣😅😂

I will get back to all messages tomorrow girls 😘 still on weekend mode 🧘‍♀️

So thankful for all my amazing clients for always keeping me booked & busy, for the endless craic, chats & friendship & for recommending me to others 🫶🏻 You have helped me build my business into what it is today 🩵

🎄 Merry Christmas to all my wonderful clients 🎄

Hope you all enjoy your time off & have a lovely Christmas with family & friends. & I’m thinking of those of you who are missing a loved one this year 🩵

That’s me off til the 3rd January (my first full week off since going self employed 2 years ago 🥳🙌🏻😂). Any messages will be replied to then 💌

Did someone say blonde goals? 😍 This client has the most stunning hair to work on. Only a T-Bar of highlights needed to freshen it up 🤩

Gift vouchers available & some retail products for anyone needing last minute gifts 🎁

Are you even in the hair & beauty industry if you don’t say you can’t do anymore extra hours than the ones you’re already doing every day, just to decide last minute to come in on your day off to squeeze people in 🤝😂

Decided today I’m working Monday 🥳

December 🎄

The start of the busiest time of the year 🙌🏻🥳
I am fully booked this month. If you aren’t able to make your appointment please let me know in advance so I can offer it to someone on my cancellation list. Please do your best to be on time for your appointment as the town will be busier too. I am booked back to back & if you are too late for your appointment there is a chance I won’t be able to carry out your service 🫣

My appointment book is currently open til the end of Feb & filling up already if anyone else wants to book ahead. Messages are replied to during salon hours. Replies might be a bit slower than usual but I will get back to you all 💌

Thankyou for being so organised with appointments & keeping me so busy 🩵

Love this time of year! Roll on the madness 💇🏼‍♀️🥳

Quick little messy upstyle done on shorter hair 🎀

Would you be brave enough for this transformation? 😮🤩 a blend of copper, red & mahogany tones 🍂

Going darker isn’t just a case of picking your favourite colour on the shade chart & putting it on. This hair had to be pre-coloured first to add in pigment to stop the colour going dull/greenish & to get an even result… It’s also not easy to then strip through the colour & go back blonde again at the drop of the hat 2 weeks later if you decide you’ve had enough of darker hair (whose been there? 😂). That’s why us hairdressers like to make sure you are totally sure & it’s not just a spontaneous decision, before going for any major transformations.

We loved the results of this one though! Shiny vibrant hair for the win 🙌🏻

Cowboy copper 🤠 Remember, copper tends to fade a lot quicker than other colours so shampoo & conditioner for coloured hair & getting your colour refreshed regularly is key to keep up that gorgeous vibrancy 🔥

A timeline of this client’s hair appointments ⬇️
April: Babylights, root tap, toner, cut & blowdry
August: Toner, cut & blowdry
November: Today we added a few balayage lowlights to darken her hair but keeping the natural root, finished with a toner, cut & blowdry

Imagine only needing your hair done 3 times a year! Minimal maintenance, the smallest of tweaks yet gorgeous results 😍 This is why I love low maintenance colour 🩵

📸 Included today’s before pic & a photo from when we first done her hair in April

Some brunette beauties from last week 😍 all keeping it lived in, low maintenance colour 🤩

Pumpkin spice 🎃 Loving the variation of tones! Obviously had to post a copper transformation today 🎃

When hairdressers mention golden blonde most clients automatically think their hair will look yellow. But warmer colours will actually make your blonde appear brighter, whereas cooler ash blondes can sometimes make your blonde appear a little ‘dull’. Adding a golden blonde lowlight to achieve this creamy beige blonde 😍

🎄⚠️ Limited availability for December 🩵

* I only have 3 colour appointments left for December.
I also have very little availability left for kids cuts and cut & blowdries 🫣
