When is the right time to cut your hair? I love changing my hairstyle and colour but a haircut just seems so permanent, and irreversible. Especially when you haven't cut your hair in years!! Yup, seriously, the last time I had my haircut professionally, Brad Pitt was still with Jennifer Aniston (dream couple still!).
I've spent the last few years just chopping and trimming my own ends - no wonder I ended up with very, very long hair!

NEW HAIRSTYLE! I Cut My Long Hair Off And Ended Up With..
Trying to tame frizzy, damaged hair is the worst. Is there a permanent way to fix it? You might think that frizz is only for a problem for our curly-haired friends but straight-haired gals and all in between will get it too! I do! Fortunately, there's a keratin treatment called K-Fusion that will fight the frizz AND without damaging your hair.

Bye-bye Brazilian Blowdry! K-Fusion Keratin Treatment at Sejour Salon
Okay, overly-dramatic title probs but I HAVE been cutting my own hair for basically the last 5 years.
Why? Partly the fact that I find snipping my ends quite soothing (it's an excellent procrastination activity if you're revising!), partly because I'm never 100% happy after a haircut and always end up trying to adjust it myself, but MAINLY because I'm ridiculous and neurotic and just find the whole experience so awkward!
Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm reduced to a hyperventilating rocking-in-the-corner mess every time I step into a salon - but I was talking to my pals about funny salon stories and today I'm writing a little silly compilation of my favourite hairdresser awks.
Some of them are probably Zoe Dubs specials (ie unique to mentalists like me) but some of them I know YOU KNOW. Now let's proceed and confirm just how mental I am shall we?

Why I'm Scared Of The Hairdresser. A Bit.
Here's the story. To honour my new, slightly-less-corporate-but-still-quite-corporate job, I decided to inject a bit of colour into my hair. I couldn't go too far though - I will be working in Fashion (swoon) but I'm still a Finance bod and bright red hair (a la Rihanna in the What's My Name video) is only going to be a teeeeny bit SERIOUSLY frowned on.
But last year, when I went to China, I got some super-awesome-love-them bright red ombre layers (see my China & Hong Kong Cosmetics post) and I absolutely adored them. I got to inject a bit of personality into my black hair, whilst still keeping the party under wraps in the office.
Unfortunately, bright red hair fades fast and it wasn't long before my Rihanna Red layers were heading towards Hayley from Paramore - aka orange.
So, as a birthday treat, I decided to treat myself (aka let me Mr FV treat me)
to a salon dye-job to reinstate my coloured layers. I also wanted to try something different - Katy Perry purple rather than Rihanna red - and I went to the home of cray-cray coloured hair, Bleach in Dalston.
If you don't know Bleach London, get to know. Specialising in colour, their Instagram feed is a haven of pastels, flouro and beautiful, beautiful hair colour.
Hope you think my new hair colour is equally beautiful! Check it out.
