The blog.

We’ve had a few requests in recent weeks for a Tom Hardy style of men’s haircut in Bristol from our male hairdressing clients visiting our Baldwin Street hair salon.

Seeing as this British actor has such a strong and iconic look, our team of central Bristol hairdressers decided to focus on this particular hairstyle for men, seeing as we offer the full range of gents hairdressing services.

The picture above sporting one of Tom Hardy’s recent popular looks is a great example to recreate, and our male hairstyling clients have loved this one.

It’s a short and sharp clipper cut on the sides, leaving some length at the top to create a workable, texturized finish.

The Tom Hardy look was finished using clay wax, with British Hair texturizing powder and Beach Waves sea salt spray for a messy but defined men’s hairstyling look.

Pricing for this men’s haircut at our central Bristol hair salon ranges from £19 to £24 – just ask for further details when you visit us, or ring to book your appointment.

The second picture of Tom above shows a variation on the previous look. As the initial style grows out, the sides become softer and can be styled and worn pushed back. The top can then be left with a swept back, sleeker look.

We offer all of our men’s hairdressing clients a full and free hair consultation in central Bristol, so if you’re unsure which men’s haircut is right for you, simply ask one of the hairdressing team at our Baldwin Street hair salon and we’ll be happy to advise you further on the best men’s haircuts and products.

We’re really pleased to be able to announce that our hair colouring experts in central Bristol now have a new hair care treatment available to offer clients.

The new hair treatment from L’Oreal, called Vitamino Colour Masque, is designed to deliver a number of benefits, including:

Protection against environmental elements, such as hot and cold weather

Enhances shine for all hair types and lengths

Reduces hair frizz on all hair types and in any season

Extends hair colour life on L’Oreal hair colouring products

As part of the legendary L’Oreal Serie Expert range, it’s also incredibly quick and easy to apply, and can be delivered as an in-salon treatment or at home.

The Masque is applied and massaged into shampooed and towel-dried hair, then left for 10 minutes. After rinsing out and washing, the full benefits of the Masque will be felt immediately.

Our hair colouring team in central Bristol recommend using the L’Oreal Vitamino Colour Masque to extend the life of hair colouring products, as it is part of the L’Oreal Professional Rnage and contains AOX, a molecular addition which helps to maintain and lock in hair colour for longer.

The other benefits are superb, but for us, as leading hair colouring hairstylists in central Bristol, the main benefit of L’Oreal Vitamino Colour Masque is to provide a no-fade sun protection hair care treatment quickly and easily.

And to celebrate this fantastic hair colouring enhancement treatment, we’ve got a great exclusive offer at our Baldwin Street hair salon on the Masque.

Simply mention this blog post when you book in with us, and clients will get two great deals:

An in-salon Colour Masque treatment for only £10

The team of hairstylists are really excited this week at our central Bristol hair salon, with the launch of a new Cloud Nine Curling Wand for expert hair styling.

This industry-leading hair curling wand from Cloud Nine contains the same technology as hair irons, but with added safety and styling features.

One of the most important elements that Cloud Nine has introduced in their new Curling Wand is that of adjustable heat levels, on low medium and high heat settings.

The barrel size provides a good level of daily curling, whilst the heatproof bag that comes with the Curling Wand from Cloud Nine is worth £25 on its own.

When switched on, the Wand is ready to go within five seconds, and the adjustable heat settings give lower heat for less intense curling options.

It’s such a versatile hair curling and hair styling item, and Cloud Nine have really delivered the goods in the development of the Curling Wand.

The Curling Wand also comes with a paddle brush when bought at our central Bristol hair salon – this alone is worth £20 if bought separately in-salon.

Devised and launched by the brains behind the original GHD irons, the new Cloud Nine Curling Wand is available at our central Bristol hair salon for the introductory price of only £99, whilst stocks last.

This includes the heatproof bag worth £25 and the paddle brush worth £20, when you mention this blog post on purchasing the new Curling Wand.

It’s time for one of the favourite hairdressing slots on our blog – our regular hairstyle of the month in central Bristol.

And this month, we’ve got a seasonal favourite for our clients to try out, which will be a perfect haircut for the Summer: Tousled Beach Hair.

This Summer hairstyle at our Baldwin Street hair salon is a firm favourite, with clients coming back year-after-year to get an amazing look for their holidays.

To create a Tousled Beach Hair look starts with a shampoo and conditioning treatment of the client’s hair, then cutting the length in as required.

A tousled beach hairstyle ideally has soft textured layers, but is versatile and can be created with or without a fringe. It’s all about what the client wants.

This Summer hairstyle can be worn dry or with wet hair left to dry out on the beach during the day, with come clients wearing it straight and others preferring to have a slight curl in their Tousled Beach Hair look. It’s up to you!

This hairstyle is ideal for leaving down during the day on the beach, then wearing it up in the evening when going out for food, drinks and dancing.

The Tousled Beach Hair look pictured above took approximately an hour to create in-salon including the cut and blow-dry, and costs from £33 to £46.50.

In terms of maintaining a Tousled Beach Hair look, our central Bristol hairstylists recommend using British Hair Curl Cream and L’Oreal Beach Waves to keep the hair in perfect condition and prevent heat damaging.

It’s that time of the month here at Aidan Garlington Hair Design when we dedicate our central Bristol hair salon blog to a specific haircut or hairstyle to showcase it for readers and clients.

And with Summer upon us, we’re going to review a popular hairstyle for our female clients – cropped hair for women this Summer in Bristol.

The essential element to this women’s hairstyle is to have it cropped on one side and longer on the other. It’s a dramatic, statement haircut and great for Summer weather, as it allows movement and air flow across the face and neck during warmer weather, whilst still retaining a strong signature look.

The women’s haircut in the pictures above was delivered using scissors and clippers, with the scissors creating texture and giving added softness overall.

The full head colour was from a bleach and tone treatment, followed by application of Fuschia colour from the Milkshake hair colouring brand.

The scissor cut at the side provides a strong look, whilst the cropping element leads into a longer level on the left from a graduated bob and a soft fringe.

This gorgeous example of cropped hair for women took approximately two and three quarter hours to deliver and costs from £93, depending on the stylists level providing the cut and colour.

Ask the hairstyling team at our Baldwin Street hair salon in central Bristol for further details when you make your booking. It’s a fantastic Summer look!
