HELLO ANTWERP……
Day 3
WELCOME DAVID GLOVER TO THE EUROPEAN SHORES…….
Welcome Mr David Glover who has arrived on the european shores…So to keep you in the loop we promise to post Daily about our prep for the shows, and a little something about all the amazing european cities that have joined the KEVIN.MURPHY culture!
David arrived into LONDON TOWN this morning and over a few pots of fresh mint tea in the Albion EAST LONDON the whirl wind of preparation begins. Tapping away on our Apple Mac’s and sketching on the butchers paper, provided as a table cloth we have devised a plan and are ready to action it.
DAY ONE ………SHOPPING FOR THE MODELS.
So off we go to hit oxford circus to find suitable attire for our lovely models whom will sport our creations! Clothes these days are inspired by all sorts, however ROCKING LONDON TOWN at the moment is a Madonna circa 1983 revival! So we have chosen to be inspired by that….[watch this space for looks!]
THE ART OF THE SHAMPOO!
How often should you wash your hair? The famous question…
Well let me tell you. When it is dirty. Thats the simple old fashioned answer.
That may be once a week, twice a week, every other day and for VERY FEW everyday!
Today a shampoo however is so much more than just a simple cleanser, you can have one to add body, exfoliate, nourish or correct a special problem.
Today’s shampoo’s are not just about being the “sadie” for your locks, they are more about being beauty treatments for your hair.
Lusterless hair is an on going battle with our locks and we all LOVE LUSTER now days we have shampoo’s that are designed to do just that. Brilliant! There is a new favorite amongst this bunch and for me it is KEVIN.MURPHY’s HYDRATE-ME.WASH and HYDRATE-ME.RINSE! [see below]
For the actual shampoo routine below is a step-by-step guide to help your locks be as lush as possible!
1. Pre shampoo brushing to remove loose dust, tangles and tone up your circulation.
2. Wet hair-luke warm water is best for all shampoo’s
3. Exfoliate the follicle with your 1st shampoo [MAXI.WASH]
4. Cleanse the hair with 2nd shampoo [HYDRATE-ME.WASH]
5. Moisturize the hair with your rinse. [HYDRATE-ME.RINSE]
Now you are ready for the finale….. bring hair back from face and wrap it, TURBAN-style [HOT!] remove excess moisture and get STYLING!!
6. Apply your desired KM STYLING AID!
7. flick flick flick those lush locks about town!
