At Piper Violet Hair Salon Twickenham, we're celebrating the heat with fresh, effortless hair transformations that everyone can rock. When the weather warms up, it's the perfect time to switch up your hair game—and we've got the ideal low-maintenance styles to keep you looking and feeling cool.

Two Must-Try Summer Hair Looks

1. Mermaid Hair Magic

This season, it's all about transforming your blonde or lightened ends into a shimmering, lived-in look. We focus on the focal area with weaves and fine slices. This technique gently lifts the ends to brighten where attention is drawn, avoiding overloading the hair with lightness everywhere. Plus, it prevents harsh regrowth lines.

Choose from a stunning range of luminous toners to elevate your summer vibe. Think violet pearlescent (Piper Violet anyone?).

2. Peekaboo Colour

This trend is set to be huge this summer! As a L’Oreal specialist salon, we continually update our knowledge and skills to offer the best for our guests. Check out the latest trends in peekaboo hair here.

Our stylist Alex is showcasing the latest look in various styles. We use a disconnected zig-zag pattern underneath the hair to create a subtle effect that can peek through or show off, depending on your vibe.

For pastel light shades, the ideal base is blondes.
For brunettes, we recommend lightly brightening some strands first before adding a mocha peek gloss.
Reds and coppers can achieve a lovely effect by mixing an intense touch of tone to create depth and contrast.

From 'Meh' to Mermaid: The Easiest Hair Tool You'll Ever Use

Say hello to the newest wave in styling—quite literally! The ghd Curve Creative Curl Wand is here to make your hair dreams a reality, without the arm aches, awkward angles, or complicated techniques.

This clever wand is changing the game for everyone—whether you are a pro or a total novice. It’s the easiest hot tool you’ll ever wrap your hands (and hair) around, transforming “meh” lengths into tousled, effortless texture in seconds.

How We Love to Use It:

Air-dry First: This helps achieve a more natural finish, perfect if your hair already has a little texture.
Smooth Before Waving: If you prefer a polished look, this is great for frizz-prone or curly hair.
Long Hair: Wrap the mid-lengths and ends for those laid-back, beachy waves that scream cool girl.
Short Styles: A simple section through the mid-layer can give just the right amount of movement—think modern, undone, and full of personality.

Whatever your vibe, the ghd wand delivers fast, consistent results with zero fuss. Expect long-lasting waves, shiny hair, and a finish that looks like you definitely spent more time on it than you did. Because good hair shouldn’t be hard work.
