I
love anything that has got to do with hair care, hair styling in my life! I
couldn’t be happier when Wella Professionals invited me to meet their global
brand ambassador Patrick Cameron for a personal hair styling master class.
Meeting Patrick made me realize that we certainly don’t use hair styling
products to their full potential at our homes and always fall back on salon
stylists for best results. Patrick along with Wella exposed the Blogger Bridge
to various possibilities of hair styling.
Here's a photo from Patrick's hair show for wella...
What I absolutely loved about the hair master class was how
Patrick treated hair styling as an art to express one’s individuality and to
maintain an overall balance in their look. There was a lot to learn from him
and he showcased his Modern Vintage collection with state of the art styling
products from the Wella Professionals portfolio. The modern vintage range in
particular epitomizes the 1960’s era, which was all about getting the balance
right and the proportions of the way hair is dressed.
Here are 5 hair styling tips that Patrick shared which I’d
like you all to know as well
#1 “Every women
should use the hairspray.” Patrick mentioned that to get a look that stays and
has finesse, it is important to use a hairspray. Don’t just save your bottles
for the next wedding function.
#2 “To get rid of hairspray, start combing from the roots
and then move slowly to your scalp.” He did mention that one mistake all girls
make after the application of a hair spray is that they comb their hair from
the top and then move on to their roots. To avoid hair breakage, just reverse
the trick and feel the difference.
#3 “For fine hair, use hair padding for hair styles.”
Patrick says to add more definition to your fine/thin hair, you can external
padding or crown clips.
#4 “In a temperature like Delhi, one should not oil their
hair more than 1 times a week.” While Patrick adored the long tresses of Indian
woman, he also mentioned that the maintenance is equally important. He also
introduced Wella Elixir Oil that is amazingly versatile and can be used on wet
and dry hair, as a treatment, as a styling product and as part of your everyday
hair routine.
#5 “Blue pink, green orange colours are on trend - one streak
is not too much commitment but still looks great.” Patrick urges women to draw inspiration
from magzines and red carpets for hair colouring trends.
He also hosted step-by- step demonstrations to style long
hair and created messy updo and flatteing topknot. The hair shows were held
across three major cities in India - Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. Having been
associated with Wella for over 25 years, Patrick has travelled across to host
hair shows and was recently associated with the renowned Cannes Festival where
he worked on a special premier from the movie Trolls starring Justin Timberlake
and Anna Kendrick.
I had a fun session meeting up with this charing yet super
witty hair guru who by the way also emphasized on the need of hair treatments
and rituals once a month owing to the pollution and hair abuses we do on a
daily basis.
