Going for the mummy chop at RUSH Hair Shepherds Bush

Ok so I’m not going to admit how long it’s been since I had a haircut, but let’s just say it’s been a very looooong while. My hair, as you may have guessed, is very fine and tends to get tangled up with minimal effort. Since having Alice, my hair has been low down on my priority list as I just tie it up every day, but enough is enough. I just couldn’t keep on living in a hair disaster movie. It was too long, way too uneven in colour and so going for the mummy chop at RUSH Hair Shepherds Bush was the plan.

We took a before shot from the back and you can see what I mean. Outgrown roots that could pass for ombré when styled and curled, but left untamed and boring was what we were dealing with. I told my stylist at RUSH Hair Shepherds Bush exactly what I was after, at least 4-5 inches off and a clean cut and refresh.

I just love every RUSH salon I go to, the lighting is always on point so you don’t look into the mirror and scream when you see yourself. Magazines, drinks and anything you need on hand for a relaxing and stress free appointment.

This is how much hair we took off in the end- savage but I felt so good as soon as it was done. Sort of like makeover week on America’s Next Top Model!

I chose a Kerastase treatment as well, the green vile for reconstruction, and it worked a treat.

Here are my after shots- so much better right?! Alice won’t be able to get her hands on my shorter locks so easily, but the length is still long enough to tie back if needed, just not every day moving forward!!

If you’re looking to get a new look done, I have a special offer for you if you visit the Shepherds Bush Salon – 50% off for all new clients! You’re welcome, and thanks for reading…

Going for the mummy chop at RUSH Hair Shepherds Bush left you wanting more? Next up is some motivation as I head to my first gym since giving birth! 

Best Hair and Beauty Salon RUSH

I’m here today to sing some long overdue praises of a well known brand who I have had the pleasure of getting to know since starting my blogging journey. This brand has establishments all over London’s best streets and boroughs as well as nationwide. I’m talking about RUSH Hair and Beauty. These guys have looked after me so well and I am here to share some highlights from a few stores I’ve visited over the past couple of months. For me, the best hair and beauty salon around is RUSH!

RUSH Holborn Salon

I’ve been to a number of RUSH salons to have treatments, cuts and blow drys, but one of the best in my opinion is the RUSH Holborn Salon. This is a brand new addition to the family with a lovely space and atmosphere. It follows the design of the other salons, and is so fresh and clean (if that makes sense) for a salon. I met with stylist Georgie for my appointment here, so if you book make sure to ask for her! Photos from this appointment are down below.

Before we get there, I want to tell you a bit about the Piccadilly Circus branch. This is the main hub where all the cool shit goes down. This is the real epicentre of RUSH Hair and Beauty in London and they always host fabulous events, just like this one.

Just before Christmas, RUSH Piccadilly hosted a wonderful evening open to everyone to test out some new clients. One just happened to be Glitterlips, so you know how this one turned out…

Boom! All the sparkles!

The RUSH Piccadilly salon also has a wonderful space upstairs for beauty treatments. This can be anything from relaxing pedicures to microdermabrasion facials. I tried out the microdermabrasion machine on my arm the last time I went in there, so I’m thinking this might be something to try to rejuvinate my skin after the cold snap.

Now I’m going to show you a few shots from my last cut and blowdry from the Holborn salon with Georgie…

I’m always excited to try out Kerastase products which are stocked in plentiful supply at RUSH. They have the finest treatments if your hair is needing a boost.

My hair never felt so good after this cut, it had been about 8 months since my last one (shhh!) so this was long overdue.

Let me know in the comments about what you thought- are RUSH the best Hair and Beauty Salon? If you haven’t been to visit yet, find your nearest salon and make an appointment, I’m sure you are due for a haircut just like me!

One last thing to share with you all, I am so proud to feature on RUSH’s website as one of the top fashion and beauty Instagram bloggers to look out for in 2017, how cool is that?!
