MAJIREL 4.45 Copper Mahogany MAJIREL 4.35 Gold Mahogany Brown MAJIREL 5.32 Light Gold Iridescent Brown MAJIREL 4.56 Mahogany Red Brown MAJIREL 5.12 Light Ash Iridescent Brown MAJIREL 9.22 True Light Iridescent Blonde MAJIREL 5.15 Light Ash Mahogany Brown Shelene Shaer, Tanaz, Illovo, explains how her stylists are using the new Majirel shades. AFTER - Majirel 4.15 on root area and new 5.15 blended on mid lengths and ends for stunning coolness. Hair by Shelene Shaer “These gorgeous shades all have a coolness to them - they are earthy, stone shades and because balayage is so popular in our salon, we are using a lot of them. Hand painted balayage techniques can produce unwanted warm tones, especially on darker hair, and these shades neutralise warmth to perfection. I am an absolute fan of the Majirel brand. It has fantastic spreadability and it is utterly reliable... all you have to do is measure, and the results are 100% accurate.” Inforcer – Breakage prevention for normal to fragile hair The Serie Expert Inforcer range is innovated with superstar ingredients Biotin and Vitamin B6. While Biotin stimulates fatty acid metabolism to promote healthy hair development, vitamin B6 stimulates protein metabolism to help strengthen the hair fibre. These ingredients are repeated throughout the range, appearing in the Anti-Breakage Shampoo, Strengthening Conditioner and Strengthening Mask, and also in the leave-in products. A fabulous range to turn weak and fragile into strong and fortified, and stop the dreaded breakage!

Lazarous Sumbane, aka Loverboy, from Tsakane on the East Rand is the winner of the coveted Dark and Lovely Golden Scissors Award 2017. He earned the honours after participating in a competition that tested the finalists’ creativity, technical skill and knowledge of hair through their interpretations of different African Queendoms. Sumbanes’ winning Ashanti inspired hairstyles landed him the grand prize valued at R200 000. As last year’s runner up, he was thrilled to clinch the honours this year. “Without this competition, hairstylists would never challenge themselves to always do better. This is great exposure which is priceless,” he says. “All the finalists learned how to improve their businesses and this allows us to push the boundaries and never stay stagnant”. Hanson Ndabeni, the National Education Manager for Dark and Lovely, who led the panel, said it was “challenging” to pick a winner but that Sumbane’s technical excellence and creative flair set him apart. He said, “It was inspiring to see how Sumbane, who was the runner up in the 2016 Golden Scissors, had developed in the last year”. For more info on Lazarous Sumbane, like his Facebook page HERE:
