I have owned Compton hairdressing for one and a half decade, and this video was made to promote our Covent Garden branch. Compton hair Covent Garden was opened in 2001 and run for 12 years, we had a great team trough the years and loads of happy memories. This video in Compton Covent Garden was made in 2009-2010 . I hope you enjoy Compton hair and beauty video. Feel free to comment or share.
Using two unique treatments, which improves the hair condition so much we left with long lasting beautiful hair for months.
Olaplex is a bond building treatment, it strengthens your hair internally it’s only a few years old technology which allows it te repair and reconnects broken sulphate bonds in the hair. It works amazingly as an added to technical services e.g. bleaching and colour or perms and straightening.

The treatment combination works and can improve hair condition. I personally find that doing the treatments first an Olaplex Bond Building then any type of Keratin treatment will give you better results as your hair will be stronger, and in better condition. My costumers saying that in some ways it extends the results of the keratin treatment.
Nowadays I tend to separate the treatments and only offer Keraplex or Zolaplex when my costumers do not have time to visit the salon regurlalry. If they are able to make two separate visits first for a Keratin treatment and then a stand alone Olaplex treatment I find that results are slightly better. It is important that there are some Keratin treatments if Olaplex applied after the Keratin treatment it does need a few weeks wait for Oleplex to be able to penetrate to the hair properly.
It is important that we apply Olplex first and Keratin treatment second, there are some Keratin treatments if Olaplex applied after the Keratin treatment it does need a few weeks wait for Oleplex to be able to penetrate to the hair properly.
To perform the Keraplex treatment it usually takes around 3/4 hour longer than your usual Keratin treatment. My Zolaplex adds around 1 hour and 15 minutes to the Keratin treatment time. The treatment lasts as long as the Keratin treatments do. Depending on the hair it is recommended in some cases to repeat an Olaplex treatment before the next Keraplex treatment.
Note to US readers:
There is also a US company called Keraplex Inc producing a Keratin treatment called Keraplex which does not contain bond building or Olaplex. I have never tested or tried the product so I am unable to comment on the quality and the results achieved by this treatment.
Zoltan, the UK’s leading hair texture expert, specialising in Keratin treatments and digital perming has launched a new treatment, “Zolaplex”.
Having trained around the world in the leading techniques and with over 23 years’ experience in semi-permanent and permanent re-texturising, improving texture is his trademark and he has made a name for himself as the go-to hairdresser for UK beauty editors, celebrities and VIPs.
His latest treatment, “Zolaplex” is a magical combination of keratin and protein for an intense moisture boost, and a new range, Olaplex that helps to strengthen hair and reinforce hair bonds. The final phase uses Ultrasound technology to help the ingredients penetrate deeper in to the hair and seal in goodness and shine. The result is hair that’s restored to its virgin state; lustrously smooth and shiny hair that’s manageable and styleable, every day.
“This treatment is a unique hair infusion that I’ve created using the latest techniques and products, to specifically treat daily hair damage caused by colour chemicals and heat styling to strengthen hair and restore its natural beauty”, says Zoltan.
“Zolaplex” is an entirely bespoke treatment, customised and adapted to each client’s needs and lifestyle that lasts up to three months.
“Zolaplex” is available from and takes up to 2 hours. For further information and to book an appointment please visit the contact page.

I’been asked many times if it’s advised or possible to have texture services:
-perming, Brazilian Keratin, Japanese Straightening, digi perm
Whilst pregnant.
My answer is that I had many, many customers who has done so, but it’s not my call not even on the level of advising someone to have a treatment or to wait. I always recommend to speak to the doctor, and I am always happy to provide an ingredient list if needed.
The weather is slowly changing, getting sunnier day by day, which means Londoners wearing less and less hats, and looking after their hair styles. I am lucky enough to work in one of the “bestes” salon in town, so fashion just constant and daily part of my job. With many of my colleagues attending and creating on LFW they always bring back the newest, hottest trends. What was on the catwalk in the morning is leaving the salon in the evening. So my prediction for summer in textures will be as follows:
My absolute favourite at the very moment is a textured messy long bob (on left), I call it PARTY WAVE. Party waves are like vintage waves, which means more defined then the beach or hippie waves, with more shine cleaners and definition.

HIPPIE WAVES are in and work very well on long hair, works very well with middle parting which I really like atm. This waves are mostly undefined, but some of them are worked to perfection, not over shiny, very natural look perfect for the city.

We have a new take on BEACH WAVES this season, very light, slightly frizzy uber natural. If you going for this look forget your diffuser and your products on your shelve, let it naturally dry and use some serum or shine oil.

RETRO WAVES are back, and the spring is just the perfect time for such bohemian hairstyle, work amazingly with centre parting. These barely seen loose waves are elegant, and easy to create as well maintain.
