We were having some pictures of the salon taken today, and of course were giving haircuts too! If you werent around to appreciate it, it was a simply beautiful day weather wise. It meant a summer dre...
A while ago I did a video of me cutting my own Bettie Bangs......which always makes me chuckle a bit...I know the big blunt scissors make hairdressers (and myself to be honest!) squirm a bit! ...
I tried to take some photos yesterday, but didnt manage to get pictures of everyone who came in! But it does give a flavour of our day! Here is Ellington, the shop dog. You can just see his aq...
So, whos got tickets to the Radio 1 Hackney Weekend? I have tickets for the Saturday, and am super excited. The line ups are pretty fabulous. As it is now a month away, I thought Id share some o...
After meeting the guys from Hawleywoods Barbershop at Viva Las Vegas this year, I had no doubt that Rockalily Cuts would be stocking Layrite Pomade. Developed to replace the wax that greasers would u...
As I was heading off to Burly Camp to give a talk on Branding, Lucie Luella gave me a poodle hair do. Very Betty Grable! I love Betty Grables hair, as Im a fan of very structured hair, and I love an ...
The salon is open as normal today, but I will be popping around the corner to give a talk on personal branding at Burly Camp. Im wearing my victory rolls from last night, a mustard knitted jum...
The doors opened! Here I am, going a little crazy trying to sort internet connection, but its pretty normal to have a few bumps in the road isnt it! Lucie and I settled in, and chatted to all of the ...
Im wearing small victory rolls, but you cant see them in this photo! The black cardigan has puff sleeves, and I got the leopard print skirt in a charity shop.
These are only some super quick pictures of Rockalily Cuts, before me and Lucie Luella left for the evening, but I know that many of my blog readers arent in London, and are curious for a little peek...
Finally an outfit not just designed for painting, sadly I will still be doing some painting today though! The doors will be open at Rockalily Cuts today, but not for full service, just to star...
Im currently watching last nights Sex, Lies & Rinsing Guys on 4oD and simply felt I had to write something. Im not exactly sure what yet, but definitely something. The documentary follows some yo...
As I am painting at the salon again today, my outfit is just painting clothes, so I thought Id show my hair instead! This rather oddly smug photo is me this morning, with my new pink and black...
If you know me, or follow my tweets regularly, you may know that Im not a fan of the majority of magazines aimed at women. In a vaguley ironic way, you can see me, in my bra and pants, on the front o...
I blogged about attempting to strip the old colour from my hair, and said to watch this space as to how I would fix my hair. Well here is an early morning picture to show you! I have black on ...
Lucie Luella is Rockalily Cuts Head Stylist, so I thought it was about time we told you a bit about who she is! 1. When did you start hairdressing? Lucie: I started hairdressing straight from school ...
Lazy day, lazy outfit.
I had a twitter plea to find a gorgeous rockabilly dress (size 14) for under £80, with some shoes in size 7 for £50. She wants to buy a petticoat as well, which tells me she wants a swing...
These came in the post today....woohoo. Rockalily Cuts should be open for cutting, chatting, relaxing and preening by the end of the month - watch this space!
My hair had been many colours, and in the past I have used bleach to strip black hair dye, and Colour B4. I am generally happy with Colour B4, and have used it more than once. My hair is currently pr...
I cant wait till Rockalily Cuts is finished and I can start wearing more pretty clothes again! Its largely about function and comfort right now!
Fancy a drink, or meeting some mates, but you have a buddy who doesnt want to stay at home? Here are some pubs/places in Crouch End that are dog friendly. I have sat inside with Ellington at: T...
Sometimes we feel we can achieve anything, and sometimes its as if the mountain is simply too high. Today, at the salon, I had this delivery arrive. I was on my own (Ellington the dog doesnt count), ...
I visited a community festival today as a couple of friends had stalls. Here is #wwmoob Pip Jolley, with her fabulous stall. It got me thinking, about how businesses decide whether to take a sta...
Today Im in a 80s punk tshirt, black vest with puffy sleeves, and a dogstooth pencil skirt.
The Vintage Festival (from Wayne Hemmingway) is back for 2012, and I was invited to guest blog for them on Hairstyles Through the Decades. It covers hair from the 1920s up until the 1980s, and I hope...
Do you prefer chain/branded coffee shops or independent ones? Where I live, I am spoilt for choice, which means I have reflected upon when and why I choose to visit each ones (and why there are some ...
A slightly blurrly picture here - apologies! Im wrapping up warm for a long train journey today. Knowing my train luck, Ill be on one with a massive heater and Ill get super hot.....you can ne...
There was a tiny break from #wwmoob meetings in April for a few reasons (were all too busy being one of them!) so it was awesome to get back to business with a Wonderful Women meeting today. I s...
