5 Golden Girls from Cannes Film Festival

We love awards season and Cannes Film Festival is definitely one of our favourites. So we thought we would share with you our five favourite looks straight from the red carpet.

Kendall Jenner
Kendall turned heads in her stunning La Perla couture, complimented by her simple yet sophisticated slick-back-bun. Complete this look with Gold Class Argon Oil to keep stray hairs in check.

Thylane Blondeau
Thylane was not afraid of fly-aways, opting for an easily maintained beach wave look. Beach waves look great with ombré as it emphasises the different shades and layers in the hair. See our range of ombré clip-in hair extension shades, and talk to your extensionist about recreating this look.

Hailey Baldwin
Hailey’s blunt bob is so sleek on and on trend. Mixing blonde hues like our …. give a more natural look whilst the extensions help to hold the shape and thickness of the lob on the shoulders.

Sara Sampaio
Sara Sampaio adopted a traditional red carpet chic look which beams class. Clip-in hair extensions can also recreate this look beautifully by adding volume and shape.

Emily Ratajkowski
We love braids as you can dress them up or down and look great at any occasion, whether that’s on the red carpet or basking in the sun. Emily opted for the messy braid look, completed with a black bow to complement her gorgeous gown.

Some of these looks can easily be mastered by yourself, but if in doubt, consult your stylist or ask your extensionist for a free colour match, fitting and styling at one of our elite salons.


Brush Up

With so much choice, how do you pick the right brush for you?   We have a range of beautiful brushes that are not only designed to care for your hair extensions, cleaning your hair, detangling and add shine with every stroke, but those with softer bristles will also gently glide over your bonds.    Here’s our guide to getting it right for your tresses:

WET HAIR

We all know that brushing your hair when wet is a “No No” so our combs are handy to have in and detangle those locks before you start styling.   Some of our combs are more suitable to styling, so we recommend our Cutting Comb with both a wide toothed section to start with and then follow up with the narrower teeth.  Keep to below your bonded areas and support your hair whilst comb to prevent tugging.

BLOW DRYING

New to our range is our soft-touch Italian Blow Dry Brush which creates volume, great curl and closes the cuticles to leave an in-salon professional finish to your bouncy blow dry,

If sleek locks are what you are craving, then use our Paddle Brush on a low to medium heat setting.

STYLING

Our Deluxe Styling Brush is such a workable tool, offering more control to shape the hair & de-tangle all hair lengths.  The Dressing Comb and Pintail Comb were made to make sectioning your hair easier, to help with those up-do’s and can also be used for backcombing to add volume to your look.

DAILY BRUSHING 

Our founder, Inanch Emir, recommends brushing your hair regularly throughout the day, at least 4 times and so don’t forget our smaller sizes of these brushes for your handbag or desk draw.

You really can’t go wrong with our Paddle Brush.  Essential for hair extension wearers with medium to long lengths.  It’s our best seller and a finalist for the Hair Awards in 2016.   We also offer a Large Oval Brush which is perfect for daily brushing, but if you want a real treat to look good on your dressing table then you absolutely have to have our Gold Brush.

TRAVELLING

We have a couple of handbag-sized brushes so you can preen on the move – a firm favourite has to be the Gold Class Extension Brush, but paddle brush fans with ultra long locks might prefer the Small Paddle.

It’s well worth investing in a couple of brushes to make the most of your hair extensions.  Brushes to avoid include those with bobbles on the ends of the bristles as these catch on your bonds and will tug your hair.  This is the same for hard bristles that are inflexible and pull on your extensions too much.   If you want to know more about the correct way to brush your hair whilst wearing your extensions, then head to our aftercare guidelines or speak to your Gold Class extensionist for their top tips & demonstration.

So where can you get your hands on these, we hear you cry?  They are available at any of our select salons nationwide or buy online from our flagship salon Inanch London Shop.


SS18 BRIDAL HAIR TRENDS

We haven’t even made it to Summer 2017, yet we’re looking ahead to top bridal hair trends in 2018, yikes! It’s good to get ahead though and we’re feeling inspired by New York Bridal Week, with bold up dos, plaits and waves leading the catwalk…

Less is more, and at Peter Langner, Marchesa and Mira Zwillinger, the up dos were kept low in neat chignons and ponytails. These sleek do’s beam elegance when partnered with a white dress. They are also so quick and easy to create, so wave goodbye to the all-day wedding prep with the never-ending supply of hair pins!

As well as beaming elegance, ponytails can also be a statement of power and this look is leading trends for the SS18 bridal season. This wet-look sleeked backed style comes from shots taken from our founder’s backstage work at the Pia Michi catwalk and whilst it looks simple, you might want to practice – or cheat and book in with your stylist.

If there’s one thing short, long, curly and straight hair all have in common, it’s that they all look super-stunning with a plait. Don’t worry if you have thin hair, Gold Class Clip-In Hair Extensions can be fitted to add thickness, volume and length to the hair to create the perfect plait for your special day. Plaits went BIG at New York Bridal week with Ines Di Santo and Hayley Paige both displaying striking Rapunzel-like plaits. The benefit of having this style on your wedding day is that it will stay in place ALL DAY. So, you won’t look back at your wedding day photos in 20 years and regret having a plait in your hair. They are unique, sturdy and totally timeless.

Gone is the season of straight hair and your au natural waves are breaking free! Beautiful boho unstructured locks are all the rage for SS18 bridal season, with stylists rebelling against over-styled, fussy, old fashioned wedding hair. Jenny Packham’s crimpled hair and hidden plaits will most certainly turn-heads as you walk down the aisle. This amorous, boho-inspired hairstyle is perfect for ladies who are looking for a bold and low-maintenance way to wear their tresses down.

To enhance your big day ‘do’ and recreate these beautiful styles, book in for Gold Class Hair Extensions with one of our selected salons.


GET THE LOOK: Anne-Marie goes for Gold Class

Anne-Marie was the latest celeb to get the “Gold Class” treatment at Inanch London in preparation for The Brit Awards Nominations Show 2017.

The ‘Alarm’ and chart topping ‘Rockabye’ singer and songwriter walked in with a bob-length cut and wanted to achieve both length and a bit of volume to her own hair. To many, extensions just mean LENGTH! That’s where you’re wrong.  Extensions do not have to create hip-hugging length hair, they help to keep the shape of shorter length hair too!

Fellow Gold Class elite salon, Daniel Galvin coloured her hair in gorgeous “icy blonde” shades prior to her extensions appointment with Inanch.

In order to get the exact colour match to Anne-Marie’s ice blonde tresses, Inanch London’s senior extensionist / colourist Lee toned her Gold Class extensions with pink and lilac shades – that’s the beauty of Gold Class hair, they can be toned to get the exact colour match of the client’s hair, so no matter how wacky and wild your hair, we can cater for you!

Inanch then used her magic touch to create length and volume by using around 200 strands of Champagne colour 17in 40cm length. The styling was then completed by her session stylist Nick Peters ahead of the Brit Awards Nominations event for which Anne-Marie was nominated for Best British Breakthrough Act as well as her “Rockabye” single being nominated for Best Video and Best Single – an amazing achievement!

Since then Anne-Marie has been having fun re-styling her new hair with plenty of curls to show off the versatility of having Gold Class extensions.   The beauty of Gold Class hair is that they do not look like hair extensions and I’m sure you will agree, she looks uber-chic!

The colour of the season – RONZE

It might seem like another made up word but it’s definitely the colour name on the lips of colourists right now. Quite simply its Red and Bronze and for this autumn is a perfect hue to offer warmth and shine which nod to the trend of luxury we are seeing right now. Catch up on the AW15 hair trends in our last blog

We are pleased to have a great range of reds to find your perfect match. From warm browns to rich red warm copper hues your expert extensionist will also be able to blend extensions to customise the look for you. Our hair quality will keep your tresses in perfect condition to maintain the shine and colour throughout autumn.

We’ve even spotted Inanch London’s Gold Class extensionist Roberto Silva has already been ‘Ronzing’ his clients here:

There are plenty of celeb red heads we can look to for inspiration from Emma Stone, Julianne Moore and of course Pretty Woman star Julia Roberts. Sienna Miller has recently sorted a Ronze look for a new role and other celebs who have dabbled include hair icon Blake Lively and Scarlette Johanson. Flick through some more red celebs here.
