My name is @senizalkancolour and I am a senior colourist . I started working at @nevillesalon as a Junior in 1998 and trained to become a colourist. I underwent thousands of hours training and spent all my spare time practising. I chose time with my tint brush over my family to get to where I am today. It's a difficult time for all of us and particularly for our industry. Firstly, I am not used to staying still, ever! And I miss so many aspects of life in the salon; my colleagues and YOU my beautiful clients. Since the salon closed, I’ve been contacted about buying professional colour and have been asked to advise on home colour, neither of which I can do as it would go against my ethos and all I’ve worked so hard to achieve. Whilst I cannot tell you what you should or shouldn’t do please bear in mind the following key points before considering a DIY job. -Overlapping colour could result in serious breakage and damage which could take months to repair in salon. -You could develop an allergic reaction to PPD. Please make your safety a priority. All the medical care workers are at maximum capacity already. -Colouring your hair at home compromises its health in varying degrees. In the salon we have first fate products that enables us to maintain hair health. My recommendation to you is to use this time to focus on the health of your hair. I can’t wait to see you on the other side. In the meantime, I’m here to offer advice Please DM if you have any questions. #spreadingtheword #Istandforpros

We’ve temporarily closed. Our number one priority is to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of our clients and team members, it is therefore with a heavy heart we decided to temporarily close the salon to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus. Our phone lines and social media channels will operate as usual and our website will continue to be regularly updated to provide you with the latest information. We would once again like to thank the #nevilletribe for your ongoing support and wish you well during these unprecedented times. #staysafe #stayathome
