Well first let me say sorry for being absent last week, it has been all go here.
Killer has been searching for a new HQ for many, many months and I can finally say that the search is over.
Pen has been put to paper and we have a new residence, move in mid April.
So I sit here sipping a celebratory glass of cold Savvy and feeling both fluttering butterflies and a dead weight in my stomach.
Like anything worth doing it freaks the hell out of ya. There are no guarantees. You just roll the dice and hope that clients will fill your chairs and it will all be a fabulous success.
The new space is on the v. cool St Benedict’s Street, Newton and although it will be a wee journey to get it up to perfect specs, it’s a journey we must take. Work and home in the same building can be a joy at times but it’s all got too much and so HOORAY – Killer Hair takes a leap on to the next lily pad.
So wherever you are and whatever you are doing keep in mind that that which scares you is that which you must do.
It keeps you from going stale and fresh is best.
See you in our new salon soon.

Hot and Humid
Is it hot or what???
This weather can take it out of you and by the end of the day leave you feeling tired. It does nothing for your hair and make-up. Your do goes limp and your cosmetics just slide off your face, leaving you looking as exhausted as you feel.
I have straight hair and find that if I leave it even slightly damp it looks greasy by 2pm. If your hair is fine make sure it’s bone dry and add just a little light product like Davines Momo Daily cream to the ends. I use a lot less product in this weather as I want it light and airy.
If you have thick curly hair, then leave it a bit damp and add a nice shine product that’s still light like Davines Glorifying Shimmering Serum. It gives light moisture to combat frizz but no weight, cause you know you’re going to look like the wild women of Borneo by the time night comes.
Dry shampoo is a must for freshening up limp roots so you can go join your mates and look as crisp as a cold glass of Sav. Keep it in your handbag so you can sort yourself out straight after work. You can buy it from most Chemists. I love Batisse dry shampoo and it’s around $16 so very affordable.
Failing all of that pull your hair back into a ponytail either just below the crown or at the base of your hairline, tease length to make big and wrap into a bun securing with a few pins. This look is messy – Hooray!! And you get to feel the breeze on the back of your neck.
