On this week’s episode of Breaking Down Beauty, we’re diving into one of the biggest hair trends right now: GLOSS! Wondering What The Gloss is all about? We’ve got you covered.

A hair gloss is a demi-permanent treatment that gives your hair an instant boost. Whether you want to revive your colour, add some serious shine, or smooth out any frizz, a gloss treatment does it all. It’s perfect if your hair is feeling a little dull or lifeless and you’re not ready to commit to a full-colour treatment. Think of it like a lipgloss for your hair – it seals everything in, leaving your locks looking fresh, glossy, and healthy.

There are two main types of glosses: clear and tinted. A clear gloss focuses on adding shine and hydration, making your hair look smooth and sleek. On the other hand, a tinted gloss allows you to enhance your colour, correct brassiness, or even add a subtle new tone to your hair. So, if your brunette needs some extra richness, or you want to neutralize some of those warmer tones, a tinted gloss is the way to go.

The best part? A hair gloss is super quick and easy. In just 20-30 minutes, you can have smooth, glossy hair that lasts for around 4-6 weeks. And unlike harsher chemical treatments, glosses are gentle and won’t damage your hair. With the right aftercare (hello, professional grade shampoo!), you can keep your shine going for longer.

If you’re curious about why hair glosses have become such a go-to for shiny, healthy hair, make sure to check out our latest blog at Servilles Academy for the full scoop. There, we dive deeper into the science of how glosses work and why this trend is sticking around. 🫶🏼

Happy Father’s Day from Servilles Academy!

Today, we’re celebrating all the amazing fathers in our Servilles family—our students, alumni, and our founder, Paul Serville. Your dedication to your craft, your families, and the industry inspires us every day.

To our students and alumni who balance fatherhood with pursuing their dreams, we see and celebrate you. You’re not just shaping the future of barbering and hairdressing—you’re shaping the future for your families too.

Cheers to all the fathers making their mark in the world and in the hearts of their loved ones. Have a fantastic Father’s Day! 🌟

If you’re thinking about becoming a barber, or you’ve just started your training, you probably know the basics—but there’s so much more to the industry that often goes unmentioned. With social media, barbering has become more than just a trade; it’s a platform for creativity and personal branding. At Servilles Academy, you’ll be equipped with the skills and hands-on experience needed to take advantage of these opportunities. Instagram and TikTok have opened doors to careers beyond the chair, allowing barbers to connect with clients, gain recognition, and build their own brand.

Whether you dream of running your own barbershop, working with high-profile clients, or becoming a social media influencer, it’s all possible. With the right training, a mix of creativity and dedication, and utilising social media, barbering offers a career path that’s as flexible as it is rewarding. In this industry, you have the chance to make your mark and shape the future you want.

Our next intake for Barbering is open for enrolment, with class beginning 15 October 2024. For more details see our website or email [email protected] 🌟

Daisy and her Curtain Bangs are everywhere right now. To achieve Daisy’s relaxed fringe, a style that’s equal parts cool, grown-up, and easy to maintain, follow the advice of Mihaela Vatafu, director stylist at Taylor Taylor London’s Shoreditch salon.

Daisy’s fringe features iconic retro-inspired curtain bangs blended into her lived-in waves, creating a classic and effortless look that maintains volume. This fringe is cut just above the cheekbones, perfectly framing the face and adding movement while accentuating the cheekbones.

To recreate this style, Vatafu recommends asking your stylist for curtain bangs that sit just above the cheekbone with face-framing layers. For those new to fringes, consider starting with a longer fringe that can be easily tucked behind the ears to ease into the style.
