'Blonde Ambition'
Did you read the article in the business magazine in the Australian today? 'Blonde Ambition'. Do blondes have more fun? well not always in the workplace! Initially blondes may suffer because there is much folklore surrounding the 'dumb blonde' but once given the opportunity blondes seem to be more skilled at getting promotions.
Did you notice how US secretary of state Hilary Clinton lightened her hair colour in line with her growing political aspirations? Authour of seminal feminist book 'Feminine Mystique' agreed with the Clairol slogan."If I've only one life, let me live it as a blonde". So.. what do you think?
Balayage
Balayage comes from the French word meaning the art of sweeping color on to the hair.
It’s a transition from dark to light without seeing any lines. There are many different techniques to create this effect.
Balayage is popular, it’s fashionable, it’s on the cover of magazines, its low maintenance, cost effective, allows people with dark hair to seek variation in hair colour without making it feel unnatural or too” different. It can also be done quite extreme with a lot more contrast for the more daring. It’s for reds, blondes, brunettes, straight, wavy & curly hair. It also creates more texture in your hair making it look a lot thicker.
People such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Giselle Bundchen, Erin Wasson, Pip Edwards are rocking these looks to name a few!
The end result for this type of look is endless there are many variations which can see you go with a deeper colour at the roots and gradually getting lighter on the ends.

'American Crew All Star Team'
Check this out! two stylists from our element team were lucky enough to attend a 'look and learn' seminar as the 'Australian American Crew All Star Team' demonstrated many cool new cuts from the 2010 informant collection. With styles and lengths varying from long to short, they also presented models showing the latest Classic and Sports look! A lot of clipper work at back and sides and longer on top, the new looks are a lot about shape rather than same length all over...
"Being there was so inspiring and I just can't wait to incorporate all the new styles into my own work" ....Josh
Why do I so adore Element in Woollahra ?
Especially in Sydney.
I’ve been a client since Element first opened six years ago and I have looked forward to every visit ever since! Element is a quality salon from top to bottom with a well earned first-class reputation for a reason, - professional, talented caring stylists and staff. Exceptional staff have the potential to give any hairdressers an edge in a highly competitive and crowded market such as Sydney’s.
The staff at Element are an enthusiastic, dedicated, talented group of individuals who offer a sincere, genuine and top quality service - their knowledge of their products and skill with scissors and blow dryer is simply breathtaking. They also understand the importance of treating their clients with respect and sincerity and ensuring that they feel comfortable and confident at all times. A beautiful range of products is available, and recommended where appropriate (but never pushed relentlessly which is greatly appreciated).
From the receptionist to the assistants, stylists, colourists and manager, seamless, gifted and attentive service makes for a brilliant salon experience every time. Whether you’re greeted with a favourite beverage on arrival, or offered one of talented beauty-therapist Martina’s exquisitely indulgent complimentary hand massages, everyone is thoroughly indulged. A great salon pampers its clients happily, ensuring that they feel relaxed and welcome; it also tends to every need of the client making sure they are serviced quickly, efficiently without making them feel rushed or in the way. At Element I always feel that I have my stylist’s full attention and that I am her most important client. Everytime.
The salon itself is one of Sydney’s best-kept secrets - a divine, tiny jewel of a space, well located in Ocean Street Woollahra. Parking is usually a breeze. Inside it is a haven of serenity - even on busy days, a client never feels rushed through or hassled. The Manager, Debi is a gentle presence - elegant, generous, sophisticated, the salon’s co-ordinator Jenni is gorgeous, attentive and always welcoming with a beautiful smile. The creative team at Element is fantastic - senior stylists including Deborah, Jasmine, Josh and Josephine, have a fantastic rapport and make the salon a very special work place. The atmosphere is easygoing and unpretentious and the emphasis is always on passion and professionalism. In fact, Element is famous for valuing clients - with warm, attentive, genuine and individualised personal service - a rare and beautiful thing in Sydney!
I have been fortunate to have Jasmine and Josh stand in when my usual stylist Deborah has been on holiday. Both are stunning - the transition was seamless. They are extremely talented, highly experienced stylists and colourists. Jasmine is quite simply fabulous! My usual stylist (and Head Colourist) Deborah Grevett is a total dream - from her dazzlingly beautiful smile to her great advice and style tips. I rely on Deborah totally for product guidance, colour advice and reliably fabulous styling. Deborah is warm and engaging, genuinely caring and inspirational! I have been a dedicated client of hers since she started working at Element five years ago. Deborah knows how to weave a certain magic for no matter how bedraggled or unkempt I look when I visit, I always feel a total shiny, glossy blonde goddess when I leave! The comments I receive on my hair are so flattering and complimentary I want to keep Element a special secret - Sydney’s best kept secret!

Hot Long Wavy hairstyles for women
For many women, getting that long wavy hairstyle requires spending hours in a beauty salon
getting just the right perm to have that “natural” wave look. Some women are lucky and born with thick, wavy hair, and never know the lengths that their straight-haired sisters suffer to obtain that good-natured, sexy, fun, and youthful appearing hair style.
Shapes
Women who have oval-shaped faces can certainly wear their hair long and wavy; however, for women who have pear-shaped or square-shaped faces, long wavy hairstyles are absolutely the most flattering. Long hair that is set in a longer, curvy style is not the most flattering on women who have diamond, round, or heart-shaped faces.
Getting the Waves
For women who yearn for long wavy hairstyles, but have straight hair with no wave to it, there are several options for getting that preferable look. One way is to use a large curling iron because it is a simple, easy to carry, and affordable way to create a glamorous look of long loose curls. Another method is hot curlers, which produce the desired volume and bounce. The final recommendation is a body wave which uses chemicals to permanently (or at least until the hair grows out and the wave is no longer lasting) achieve the preferred wavy look. For some women the permanent can last only six to eight weeks because their hair grows so rapidly; others will have the desired wavy look for six months to a year since their hair barely grows. For the later, this is great because perms can get expensive.
Psychology
For many women who prefer long wavy hairstyles, it is preferred because the women feel young and appealing; perhaps even revealing the desire for a completely non-conventional lifestyle – a longing for independence from societal norms; to free the spirit from the expectation of “growing up”. This style is easily maintained, get up, run fingers through it and go – the most desirable tresses for the bohemian free-spirited woman.
Summary
Long wavy hairstyles sometimes indicate a bohemian-nature; however, for many the wavy tresses insinuate the wearer is free-spirited and non-conventional.
Top Funky Hairstyles to Try in 2010 - 2011
Your hairstyle can make or break the look of your entire outfit. How you style your hair says a whole lot about your own personality. funky hairstyles are great not just for teenage girls. These hairstyles work well for women who are not afraid to express their individualism and strong personalities. If you feel that your hairstyle is not doing much just justice to your own personality, here are just some short funky hairstyles to help you out on just that.
Short Funky Hairstyles to Try
Jagged Bobs
One of the favorites among the different short funky hairstyles that are now in fashion is the jagged bob hairstyles. These short funky hairstyles are ideal for those women who want to show a little bit of their wild side but do not want to go too overboard with the changes in their appearance. Jagged bobs are done through the use of a mixture of tapered and angular cuts which allow the bob to have a bit of edginess in its appearance while framing the face to make it extremely flattering for most face shapes. To soften the look, some would choose to add some fringed bangs into the overall look of the bob.
Emo cuts are another popular choice among the short funky hairstyles coming out. Emo cuts are a cross between the classic bob look and the edginess of spike hair. The style was included among the popular short funky hairstyles to try when Kate Gosselin began to support this type of hairstyle. This hairstyle is extremely easy to manage and, just like the jagged bob hairstyle, is great for those who want to change their outward appearance without becoming extremely too drastic about it. Increase the funkiness of this hairstyle by adding some bold color streaks on the bangs that frame your face.
Spikes
If you are one of those bold women that do not mind going a little bit extreme, spike hairstyle is the best option among the different short funky hairstyles now in season. While this hairstyle does complement most face types, it is important to have the personality to match the boldness emanated by this hairstyle and to pull this off altogether.
