Great hair stylists have common factors that ensure they attract and keep customers. However, finding them is another issue. So how can you find the perfect hairdresser for you? Why is it that men seem to easily find great hair stylists? Most men seem to have it easy when it comes to salon life (a small trim or buzz cut will be appropriate for the majority of customers).

Hair & Beauty treatments are an ongoing topic on my 88.9FM Fashion and Home radio show as I am always interested to share the latest trends and products with my listeners. I was recently introduced to some products from Paul Mitchell…and I have to say… they are among the best hair products I have tried. I have been using the moisture-inducing Paul Mitchell Instant Moisture Shampoo and Instant Moisture Conditioner because my hair is coloured and tends to be dry. You do have to be careful that products designed to add moisture don’t also add WEIGHT to fine hair like…
