2026 The Year of the Glow Up

There’s something powerful about the start of a new year

Not in a new year, new me kind of way, but in a this is my time to feel good again way.

2026 isn’t about pressure, perfection, or overhauling your life.

It’s about choosing yourself more often.

Doing the little things that add up to feeling happier, healthier, more confident and, yes, sexier too.

Because when you feel good on the inside, it always shows on the outside.

This is the year we drink the water properly.

Hydration wakes everything up. Your body, your mind, your scalp and your hair. It brings life back where things have felt dull or tired. Glowing hair starts from within, and sometimes the simplest habits make the biggest difference.

It’s also the year we move our bodies with kindness. Stretching, reformer Pilates and walking outdoors. Not to punish ourselves, but to feel strong, open and energised. Fresh air, vitamin D and a clear head do wonders for your mood, your hormones and your overall wellbeing. Healthy hair loves a balanced, happy body.

2026 is about feeding your mind too. Less noise and more inspiration. A motivating podcast on your walk. A moment of stillness. A deep breath instead of rushing through life on autopilot. Stress has a way of showing up in our hair, and calm does too.

It’s the year we make time for ourselves.

Not when everything else is done.

Not when we are exhausted.

But because we matter.

Let your hair down.

Do something fun.

Laugh more.

Say yes to joy without needing a reason.

This is also the year we choose kindness.

Being kind to yourself in the way you speak to yourself.

Being kind to others in the way you show up.

Because kindness softens everything. Your energy, your nervous system and the way you move through the world.

Wear the nice clothes, even if it’s just a normal day.

Put the lippy on.

Show up for yourself, because confidence isn’t about who is watching. It’s about how you feel when you catch your reflection and smile.

And of course, it’s the year we look after our hair properly.

Healthy, beautiful hair isn’t just about products. It’s about care, consistency and intention. Treating your hair to what it actually needs. Sealing those ends. Adding strength and shine. Booking the haircut or restyle you’ve been thinking about for months. Letting go of what feels tired so something fresh can grow.

Sometimes a hair appointment isn’t just hair.

It’s a reset.

A confidence boost.

A moment where you leave feeling lighter, brighter and more like yourself again.

2026 is your glow up year.

The year you feel good.

The year you look good.

The year you live your best life inside and out.

And if that starts with healthier hair, a fresh cut or a beautiful restyle, then you are exactly where you are meant to be.

Here’s to happy hair, calm minds, kindness and glowing energy.

2026, let’s do this.

Split End Shield & Seal: The Secret to Stronger, Healthier Ends

If you’re tired of split ends spoiling your style or losing precious length every time you trim, our Split End Shield & Seal treatment is the solution. This professional express service is designed to repair, protect, and seal the most fragile part of your hair — the ends keeping them strong, smooth, and polished for up to four weeks.

Unlike a deep conditioner you might use at home, this treatment is blow-dried and sealed with a flat iron into the hair, locking in the benefits for weeks rather than just until your next wash.

        Benefits at a glance

• Stronger, smoother ends that last up to 4 weeks

• Instantly repairs and seals split ends

• Keeps your cut looking salon-fresh between visits

• Protects against heat, styling, and environmental damage

• Adds shine, strength, and overall hair health

Price: £39 | Extra 10–15 minutes

Add-on only - must be paired with a cut & blow dry or blow dry.

🔍 FAQ: Everything You Need to Know

Q. What’s the difference between this and a Brazilian Blowout Smoothing Treatment?

The Split End Shield & Seal is a 10–15 minute add-on service applied only to the ends, repairing and sealing for up to 4 weeks.

The Brazilian Blowout Smoothing Treatment is a full 75–90 minute service applied from roots to tips, smoothing, defrizzing, and improving overall hair health for up to 12 weeks.

Q. How does this differ from at-home masks or repair products?

Most at-home treatments only provide a temporary effect that washes out. This professional treatment works instantly to repair and bind broken fibres together, giving you lasting results for weeks and protecting against further breakage.

Q. Who is the best candidate?

Anyone! But especially clients with:

• Fragile, over-processed or colour-treated ends

• Dry, frizz-prone hair

• Hair they want to grow longer without sacrificing length

• Ends that never feel smooth, no matter what they use at home

Q. How long does it last?

Up to 4 weeks (10–12 washes) – or longer if you use Brazilian Blowout Açai Aftercare and styling products at home.

Q. What can I expect afterwards?

Healthier, stronger, smoother ends with noticeably improved texture, less breakage, and a cut that looks fresher for longer.

Why it’s a Must-Have Add-On

Think of the Split End Shield & Seal as the finishing touch to your haircut or blow-dry. It doesn’t replace your trim – instead, it enhances it, keeping your style sharper and your ends healthier between salon visits.

For just £39 and an extra 10 minutes, it’s the ultimate way to protect your hair investment and enjoy that just-cut feeling for weeks.

Celebrating Hair Diversity: Why Representation in the Salon Matters

The Importance of Representation

Representation in the hair industry doesn’t start on a billboard; it starts behind the chair. When stylists from diverse backgrounds are part of a salon, they bring not just talent but real lived experience and cultural understanding. This creates a richer, more inclusive environment—one where you feel seen, understood, and completely at ease.

There’s something special about sitting in a chair and knowing your stylist gets your hair because they’ve lived it too. It’s a comforting feeling that makes all the difference!

Education Is the Game Changer

Thankfully, more hair academies are updating their training to include all hair types, from straight to coily, fine to dense. This shift is essential. It ensures every stylist can confidently care for every client—no one left out, no guesswork, just skill and understanding.

Inclusive education isn’t just good for the industry; it’s better for you, the client. You deserve a stylist who knows how to handle your unique hair type with expertise!

Styling with Culture and Care

It’s not just about haircuts or treatments; it’s about creating a space where your hair is truly understood. That means listening, learning, and tailoring every service to you. Because even two people with the same hair type might have totally different needs, histories, or styling habits.

When culture, technique, and empathy meet, you get something much more meaningful than a salon appointment. You get connection. You get a stylist who understands your journey and can help you express it through your hair!

A Salon Experience That Sees You

Diversity in hair is a gift. It fuels creativity, sparks innovation, and builds community. When a salon reflects that diversity—from the services offered to the team behind the chair—it becomes a space where everyone can shine.

Because at the end of the day, hair isn’t just about how you look. It’s about how you feel. And feeling good about your hair can transform your entire day!

Finding Your Perfect Stylist
