An evening of cut and colour inspiration awaited guests to the latest Electric Sessions in partnership with Calligraphy Cut.
The evening, held at Electric Space in London and hosted by founder Mark Woolley, saw members of the Electric art team present their brunette summer trends, while Chis Grimley and Cammey Gallacher shared cutting tips using their Calligraphy Cut pen-like cutting tool – instant texture through the ends and a soft on-trend, wearable mullet.
“Electric Sessions is designed to be bite-size sessions which are relevant to today’s hairdressing,” Mark explained. “If you’re not exciting your clients, they will go somewhere else, so whether it’s an interesting colour or adding a fringe, shake it up and get them excited about their hair.”
Darren Webster and Tom Pike introduced their brunette trends for the coming season using Electric London E-Colour; cool espresso browns with iced brown and ash tones through the ends for a lighter, sun-kissed look that stay true to the brunette colour wheel while adding a splash of seasonal delight. With 87 permanent tones that can be adapted to semi-permanent and gloss finishes, you can change client’s hair colour with ease, without losing the integrity of the hair.
“Summer colour is about lived-in, wearable colour that grows out as beautifully as when it I first applied,” said Darren. “Brunettes are definitely having a moment this summer and with the right placement and tone, your clients will love the effortless but luxurious feeling they have in their hair all season.”
Tom added: “While your clients may want to go slightly lighter for the summer, don’t forget about depth and richness. When your clients go on holiday, they don’t want their colour to become ‘brassy’, and with E-Colour that won’t happen as it deposits cooler, more balanced pigments that resist UV photobleaching.”
Chris and Cammey demonstrated the ease of cutting with their Calligraphy Cut pens on long hair. “The Calligraphy Cut pen is a lot simpler to use than scissors on all types of hair, you can create whatever you want to with ease,” explained Chris.
