Highlights of our decade

Nov 6 2010 by Liz Lamb, The Journal

BRITISH hairdresser of the year nominees Hooker and Young are celebrating 10 years in their Newcastle salon. Michael Young chats to LIZ LAMB about the key styles of the decade and we give 200 readers the chance to win a free haircut.

“We’ve been inundated with women coming into the salon asking for Cheryl’s colour and hair extensions.They want the colour and the length and to recreate her look. Hair is very much celebrity driven.”

Here, Michael talks us through some of the major hair trends of the decade.
