Formaldehyde testing in salons
Formaldehyde is a gas and it can be easily measured in the salon air with a simple test for 20minutes during the treatment process.
I highly recommend to test the formaldehyde level before and during the treatment regularly to every stylist, and hair salon when they offering Keratin services, even if they think they do not use formaldehyde-based Keratin treatment, as there are manufacturers don’t say the truth about the level of formaldehyde in the products.
As of today I haven’t seen anyone testing for formaldehyde, so if you a professional please look up my blog for info how to do the procedure, and where to order your kit and pricing etc

Here I intend to give you a brief information on Digital perming, which is a new technologie originates from Japan in the beginning of 2000’s. Well that’s what most hairdressers would say, but it’s isnt entirely trough. Digital perming is simply using heat in the perming process which originates from Europe from and around the 1900’s. In the beginning it was a very exclusive and expensive process easily costing a monthly wage, but before World War II it was as cheap as a dollar and wildly available worldwide.
Then cold perming become the trend and everyone has forgotten the old techniques and machines. In early 2000’s after the success of thermal reconditioning (permanent hair straightening), Japanese stylist and companies started to develop the up to date techniques and products of the original wired hot perming techniques which become a hot new thing, and huge success in Asia called Digi perm. The metrology stayed the same but everything the machines and chemicals have greatly been improved.
The main difference in digital (hot) perming compared to traditional (cold) permings are:
The digi perming techniques allow different parts of the hair to be processed by different strength of chemicals and to allow them to develop for different times, and /or areas to the hair to be more protected and cared for.
The digital perming can create larger and more natural looking waves, and the curls are more defined when they dry rather then the traditional perming is more defined when it’s vet and usually technicians use it for for stronger curls. It is difficult to create root lift with the digi (hot) perming method, as the heat can not be close to the scalp as it would cause dissconfort and burn, but with cold perms it is standard to start from the roots.
Zoltan currently offers his perms tailored to customers needs, and offers both hot and cold perming methods to his customers. He has the most up to date digital perming machine which is extremely gentle to the hair and it’s only 3 in europe of this type of machine. He takes pride in his perms and uses the very best of the available machines, techniques and lotions.

When did it all get so complicated?
From being something that was a fun and often practical part of our lives, beauty regimes seem to have become increasingly baffling. Do we really need to know the intricacies of shaping, contouring and draping (it’s the new contouring by the way) when the reality is that most of us are still looking for a foundation that stays put and a mascara that doesn’t smudge As for skincare, between cocktailing our serums (fiddly, I know, but it works), layering and stepmasking (the peel, the serum, the moisturizer), it’s amazing we have time to run families, homes and businesses. What we all need are beauty routines that make life easier, ones that slot into the reality of your everyday and help streamline your life with solutions rather than overcomplicating it with confusing regimes. When life gets busy, beauty seems to be the one area that many women factor out, not in, which, believe me, is a mistake, as something that initially seems unimportant, compared to, say, preparing a presentation or organizing an event, can later take on disproportionate importance. Recently, a high-flying but despondent friend of mine called; she had just returned from an economic summit where she was the keynote speaker, but any sense of success was >
This is not about vanity, but rather instilling confidence by being prepared so you never get caught out again. As one colleague puts it, ‘It’s exhausting living in a last-minute panic’”
>overshadowed by the fact that as she walked towards the podium all she could think about was the spotlights picking out her root re-growth. “I’d prepared in every other way but this totally swept away my confidence. It hadn’t seemed important before, but at that moment it was all that mattered.” Other women I’ve spoken to report losing their thread mid-presentation when they notice how unkempt their nails look and how much they want to hide them. Why, they ask themselves in anguish, didn’t I book in for a manicure? This is not about vanity, but rather instilling confidence by being prepared so you never get caught out again. As one colleague whose evenings are taken up with events puts it, “It’s exhausting living in a last-minute panic.” Prioritize what matters and, if you are not already doing so, start to block-book rolling appointments for hair color, manicures, blow outs and waxing. One friend who travels extensively advises booking two appointments, a few days apart: “That way if I have to cancel one I always have a back-up. It’s one less thing to think about. ” Over the years, I too have developed my own ‘back-up’ – a list of the treatments to book and the products to never run out of because they provide the best solutions to those beauty problems that would otherwise be one more thing to worry about. These are what I constantly share with others who also seek to streamline their lives. While some may not be relevant to your specific needs, others can be game changers. For those of you who rely on regular three- to six-weekly color appointments, you need to know about Color Wow Root Cover Up, a genius mineral powder that covers roots or can even add natural-looking highlights to tide you over after a missed appointment – and it lasts between shampoos.
Although it may have received some bad press over the years, I cannot recommend highly enough a good (and there are many bad) Brazilian Blow Dry treatment. When done by a professional (my best advice is going to someone who only does this treatment and has done so for several years – most good salons now have a specialist on staff), it can transform frizzy, fluffy and bleach-puffy hair into a new sleek and manageable state. It can also dramatically improve the condition of your hair, as I have found after seeing Zoltan Vargyai (zoltan-hair.com) for the last six years. Plus, it frees up both your time – as blow outs are much faster – and your mind from the constant worry of being caught out by rain or humidity.

What is a Keraplex hair treatment, and how does it work?
In the UK more and more people talking about Keraplex hair and wondering is it work, and what’re the differences to a usual keratin treatment?
Keraplex is a hybrid treatment a combination of two amazing stand-alone services:
-
-
Using two unique treatments, which improves the hair condition so much we left with long lasting beautiful hair for months.
What are the two treatments in Keraplex?
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.
KeraSWIFT
other keratin treatments
To read and find out a little more about Olaplex Bond Building technology click here.
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.

The 10 Sleekest Hair Looks From London Fashion Week SS17
We turn to London Fashion Week for the latest hair inspiration. Featuring the spring/summer 2017 collections meant hair was left appearing quite natural, tresses needed to have a healthy shine and have some movement on the runway.
This season the fringe dominated the catwalk. The hair fell either right below or right above the models’ eyebrows and the weight was on point – it wasn’t too whispy or too thick – there were no stringy, greasy fringes here, it was pure gloss. To get the look, we offer fringe straightening (check it out here.)
See the sleekest hairstyles seen on London Fashion Week runways, we have rounded up everything from Burberry to J.W, Anderson.
J.W. Anderson.
BURBERRY
It was all about the centre part. Hair was either left straight, had a very natural wave to it, or was slicked back into a ponytail. Overall the hair didn’t detract from the clothes, it was effortless and that’s why its a winner.
J.W. Anderson mastered the fringe in his intimate show. For the girls who didn’t have the crowning cut, the hair was parted to the side and it fell slightly to the side to mock side bangs.
FAUSTINE STEINMETZ
The model’s hair cascaded over her shoulder as she laid down posing for Faustine Steinmetz’s presentation. The shiny hair was about as light reflecting as the Swarovski crystals adorning the garments.
MARY KATRANTZOU
Mary Katrantzou’s glossy locks had movement on her runway. The centre part formed a curtain of
hair around the models face, and her locks were blown backwards from the power of her strut.
EMILIA WICKSTEAD
Dorothy skipping down the yellow brick road with her embarrassing child-like pigtails had nothing on the girls on Emilia Wickstead’s yellow catwalk. Their lightweight effortlessly wavy hair freely bounced behind them as they walked.
ROKSANDA
The hair was secured back behind the models ears, drawing attention to the big summer shades veiling their eyes. Parted to the side, you could see the hair was carefully brushed into its smooth streamlined shape.
BELSTAFF
The lovely Liv Tyler was at Belstaff’s London Fashion Week presentations to present the new Belstaff x Liv Tyler capsule collection. All the girls modelling, including Liv Tyler, donned glamorous silky waves.
MULBERRY
Despite the number of times we saw a fringe and the eu natural tresses this season, Mulberry managed to make the look appear fresh. Even with a fringe the hair tucked was tucked behind just one of the girls ears, making here appear quite youthful. The key here was the barely there makeup. Wearing heavier makeup with a fringe can quickly turn your from school girl to vixen.
PETER PILOTTO
The models’ hair hung straight down their backs to revealing their collar bones in the off-the-shoulder blouses. The naturally shiny, wavy hair looked, well… natural, which isn’t always so easy to accomplish.
ANTONIO BERARDI
Goldie Locks would be jealous of the brilliant blonde manes on Antonio Berardi’s spring runway – you can’t help but imagine the sun catching the girls’ glossy hair!

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.
