We recently met up with Niko, the Silver award winner for the 2016 Wella National Trend Vision Awards. Here, she shares with us her pro tips, essentials and trend predictions for 2017.
How did you get into hair styling?
I am a creative person by nature and I love to create beautiful things. I get to do just that with hairdressing.
What are your top three hair care or hair styling tips?
A lot of customers tell me that it’s difficult to maintain a blowout hairstyle after they step out of a salon. Hence, I always suggest a trim and a perm as premed hair is quite manageable and easy to maintain. For my second tip—always remember to blow-dry your hair after washing because it’s easier to style your hair when it’s damp. Leaving it to air-dry without styling it will make it harder to style later on. Finally, always remember to choose styling products that double up as a treatment. I like Sebastian Professional’s Potion 9—it’s a styling cream that’s infused with nine botanical extracts that help to restore lost moisture and give your hair a healthy shine.
