much of a psychologist is there in a hairdresser?
Udo was a friend of mine, and his
wisdom and humor will always

people who see a visit to the hairdresser as a
time out, during which they would like to fade out their
their problems.
Now to your actual craft:
What cuts are currently in vogue?
In recent years, the motto has been:
The main thing is long hair. But in the meantime
there are successful young female influencers
who are developing their own fashion again.
The proportion of long hair is still very high
very high, but for many of them the long
bob is the trend. And the pageboy head, although
even if not classic, but blunt and

But not every cut suits every

That’s right. The shape of the face is an important
factor when it comes to the basic length
and volume distribution. Over-

Winter colors are currently en vogue,

from the stresses and strains of summer?
Shampoos, conditioners and cures that provide plenty of
moisturizing are the be-all and end-all.
