- Styles: Strong by Paula Alonso, Spain
Inspired by the 90s. I always felt super identified with that time. I loved the clothes, the music, all the super daring, and cool looks. What better way to try to live the 90s than to represent them doing what I am most passionate about "creating" and letting myself go? As the great Rolling Stones used to say, "lose your dreams, and you will lose your mind."

- London Wellness Academy - Interview with a Cruise Ship Hairdresser: My Experience Working Onboard
London Wellness Academy is the leading training institute for spas and wellness. They recruit hairstylists and spa professionals to work for the most prominent cruise lines, that sail to sought-after destinations all around the world. Let 2022 be your year of change and adventure. A contract on board ship can enhance your CV, give you sought-after skills that will provide incredible value in your career, broaden your horizons and job opportunities. It’s the most amazing way to see the world and experience destinations you’ve only dreamed of visiting – and getting paid for it in dollars, with all your living expenses, food, and accommodation covered. A former cruise ship hairstylist shares what it was like working at sea, and how the experience has supercharged their career Rene Ferreira has been in the industry for over 15 years and is now proud to partner and work with Veaudry Icon Salon and Veaudry Global. Tell us about your background and how you applied to work on board - what inspired you to take the step? I grew up in Australia from the age of 10 which means I travelled from a young age. I decided to study hairdressing because I love being creative. During my studies one of my friends went on board as a personal trainer and she could not stop talking about her journey. I immediately decided to get more information about this as a hair stylist. I mean, who does not want to travel and get paid doing what you love all at the same time. I applied via Steiner International for my first few contracts and then moved to On Board Spa. What was the training for on board work like? The training was very strict and professional. You had to look and act the part the whole time. I did a house share with other friends whom I trained with and this helped prepare me for close-quarter living. The training was a full day every day, from 8am to 5pm,and involved a barbering course, hair training and product training. What ship were you placed on and where did it sail? I was lucky to be on a few ships. I started with Celebrity ruise liner, then Princess cruise liner and lastly P&O cruise liner. I travelled literally all over the world as my very first ship was a world cruise! How many contracts did you complete on board? Were they all enjoyable? I have enjoyed 4 contracts on the ships. I believe that everything is as enjoyable as you want it to be. There were high moments and some low moments, but we always stuck together as a family and supported one another. Going to bed overlooking one island and then waking up to a brand new island next morning definitely kept my heart content. What were the biggest perks? There are so many perks: working with ever-changing views, meeting the most amazing people and creating memories that you will treasure for ever, and of course, making money! What were the biggest challenges working on board? The biggest challenge was that you don’t really have personal space: you share a cabin with other crew members, and if you’re not in the cabin, you’re either among other crew members or mingling and interacting with passengers daily. I also missed my family, but I made a point of them to call them once a week and share on Facebook where I was and what I did. (There was no Instagram back then.) This did make me feel connected to them. What would you say working on board taught you? Working on board taught me to work as a team, to work hard and get rewarded for it. This has helped me so much - not only as a person but also in my business today. One of the most important has been definitely to savour life moments! Are you keen for the adventure of a lifetime, while earning an excellent income and working in the career you love?

- Styles: Everything Sucks by Javier Gomar, Spain
For the realization of this collection different techniques have been mixed. On the one hand, it is intended to reach perfection to achieve certain colors or cuts, but at the same time it simulates the limitations that anyone would have at home, if they had to follow the processes themselves. During those bizarre months, it became clear how many people tried to work different techniques without the proper knowledge or tools. If they wanted to cut their hair, they used kitchen scissors, for example. This is reflected in the collection, as in the image with the extensions in white with green, one of them is "nibbled" from front to back and the other in reverse. What it is trying to show is the result of cutting wrong or how an extension is positioned wrong. As for an inappropriate application of color, it is reflected in the image of purple hair, which shows the result of someone treating the color at home without spreading it well, leaving more tinted areas. The whole idea of the collection lies in using slightly mixed techniques, without pretending perfection at any time. The looks are also inspired by the world of raves or illegal parties, where some escaped to vent and to which they came with the best look their limitations allowed. However, despite the imperfection, they achieve their goal, to be happy, even if people want to condemn them.

- Kadus Professional LightPlex For Perfectly Clear Blonde Results
Perfectly clear blonde results are easy to achieve with Lightplex, the advanced lightening system from Kadus Professional. As a colourist you are no doubt aware of the potential damage the lightening process can cause to your client’s hair. Lightening can make hair prone to breakage leading to damaged and fragile hair. The good news is that LightPlex with Pro-Plex Technology turns all of that that on its head with a simple system to ensure up to 97% less hair breakage. * The magic starts before the lightening process, continues during the stabilising process, and lasts long after your client leaves the chair with perfectly clear, strengthened blonde hair. Pro-Plex Technology keeps giving BEFORE the lightening process, Pro-Plex Technology deeply penetrates malic acid into the hair. 1. LightPlex Bond Lightening Powder No. 1 is a premixed lightening solution that deeply penetrates the hair to help you achieve perfectly clear blonde results. The exclusively developed, pure white lightening powder is a premixed solution that delivers up to 7 levels of lift and can be used for all lightening applications and techniques, on or off scalp. DURING the stabilising process, Pro-Plex Technology activates the already deposited malic acid deep within the hair, at the same time adding more malic acid to the hair. 2. LightPlex Bond Completion In-Salon Treatment No. 2 reconnects hair bonds after the lightening process to stabilise the hair from within. It also neutralises the pre-lightening process resulting in smooth, shiny and resilient hair. AFTER the lightening process, at-home maintenance products with Pro-Plex Technology continue to add malic acid to the hair to reinforce bonds. 3. LightPlex Bond Retention Mask No. 3 keeps your client’s hair strong and moisturised and in good condition until her next in-salon colour treatment. Also available in the at-home care range are LightPlex Bond Retention Shampoo and LightPlex Bond Retention Conditioner. * when used in combination with Bond Completion No. 2 In-Salon Treatment.
