IF YOU’RE USING tools a lot, you need to think of you and your client’s health,<br />

an idea that’s behind the CurlBar by Hot Tools Professional. “It’s so much easier<br />

to create curls,” says 2016 Most Wanted Colour Expert, Robert Eaton. “It reduces<br />

a lot of the strain on my arms and is really lightweight.”<br />

“We’ve found that lighter appliances are favoured by clients as they don’t<br />

want to hold anything too heavy – especially when styling for a long time,” says<br />

Sharon Malcolm, founder of Sharon Malcolm Hairdressing. “The length of the<br />

power lead is also extremely important; a longer lead is better for both in-salon<br />

and at-home styling. For us, ghd ticks all the boxes.”<br />

Teaching clients how to use their tools correctly is also important, but take it<br />

easy – remember clients aren’t pros. “We let the client do a few easier sections<br />

and show them how to hold the L’Oréal Professionnel Steampod,” says Andrew<br />

Mulvenna, owner of Andrew Mulvenna in Belfast.<br />
