'Hair Flare'

'Hair Flare'
Not sure I like hairdressers but I'll give it a go!..& yes they ARE genuine Colin Leslie shades on my head!! > http://www.colinleslieeyewear.co.uk/

 FINALLY!
After a long time looking I have found a dude who cut my hair well. In fact, not only did he cut my hair well, but the whole experience & pampering was lovely.
His name is Paulo & he is working in Headmasters UK Shepherds Bush, #W12. Here is a link > http://www.headmasters.com/?p=422
I made an appointment with the receptionist Natalie.
She was bubbly & bright, had a young funky vibe yet was graceful & attentive. She assessed my mood well & my slight natural 'ditsyness' & also gave me some advice about yellow nail varnish while I was there. Stupidly I forgot to take a photo of her. If you go in, her groovy bubblegum pink nails will hit your eyes & you will realise this matches her character.
This is how my hair was...
Paulo chatted to me about what I wanted. I informed him I needed to rescue it from the last 'cut' at a different hairdressers.
Natalie then returned with this lovely cup of coffee, biccies & water. I liked the simple but nice touch of it being served on a tray. I liked it so much that I took a pic!
I was taken to have my hair washed. This is when Nilson popped up. Turns out he happens to be Paulos Uncle. He was equally charming too.  Well he 'washed' my hair. It was more like a dreamy massage with some aromatherapy thrown in. I felt relaxed, the smell of the shampoo made me imagine I was lying in a field
 in the sunshine. Bliss...
In a dreamy state, and after admiring the beads on Nilsons neck, I strolled back to the chair for the cut to begin. Quite impressed with our dual multi-tasking skills here!
He chopped, he listened, he smiled...I was liking his vibe & confidence even more. Did I mention that I like chatting to hairdressers but I don't like having my haircut! So far Paulo is doing well & I am happy so this is good.
Nearing the end of the lovely pampering experience. Yep, I even look happy so all is good! The salon has been busy with customers arriving looking a bit weary & they leave looking refreshed. Nilson & Paulo both mention a hair treatment called 'Kerastase'. I vaguely take this in through my hazy world of bliss.
All finished!  Yep, I insisted on getting a pic of my new fave hairdresser. 
No, I did  NOT mention that Paulo is young and good looking as I think that is obvious! His grace, style & cutting skills were fantastic. He put up with my enthusiastic chatting, he was sweet when I told him about my slightly broken heart. I 'big him up' because he is good at what he does.
I am pleased with my haircut. 
I liked the good customer service I received. 
I felt pampered and special at the end of a hard emotional week. 
Refreshed and happy. I WILL return, I will return because as I left I felt fantastic, bubbly and bouncy, just like my hair.....They gave me 'Hair Flare'...and in my world, THAT is good :)
