Umberto Giannini Bloggers Event

Last week I was invited along to a bloggers event at the Umberto Giannini salon in Selfridges. We were all welcomed by the lovely team who made sure we were well fed with tasty nibbles and never had empty glasses! While we snacked on pretzels, maltesers and personalised cupcakes and sipped on champagne, we were given a presentation by Mark Caswell, the creative director for the salon on all of the hair trends for the current season. I loved the intricate plaited hairstyles and the big, voluminous curls!
After the presentation, the stylists spoke to each of us and asked us what we would like to know regarding our hair and then they let us choose how we wanted our hair to be styled. This was fanastic for me as I'm absolutely useless at anything to do with my hair! I was given some great tips on how to care for my long, dry hair and prevent split ends. I wasn't sure how I wanted to have my hair styled, so I told the stylist Dan to do whatever he wanted to it. He took pieces of hair in different sizes and curled them in all directions before brushing the curls out and pinning my fringe to the side. We were then given goody bags which contained some of the products that had been used on our hair so we can recreate the styles at home, a bag of sweets and a voucher for a cut and blow dry. It was such a brilliant evening and I can't wait to go back!
