Hair for Charity

On the weekend Leah and Mandy did hair for the amazing Sweet Chari-Tea event which raised much needed funds for the paediatric unit at the Canberra Hospital.  The event was held at the Abbey at Gold Creek and was a high tea that was highly styled with each table decorated amazingly and in theme with Alice in Wonderland. Congratulations to Kartika Medcraft for holding such an amazing event.

Bond @ Spa and Beauty Expo

On the weekend Leslie was fortunate enough to join the Australian Hairdressing Council's Youthworx team in doing hair for 6 runways @ the Sydney Convention Centre.  It was Bond Hair Religion's first time at the Expo and it was a lot of fun.  Leslie got to work with some other amazing hairdressers and also peruse the expo.  Although it's not as big as the annual Hair Expo, the beauty expo was still jammed packed with a lot of interesting products. A big thanks to Leesa Smith and Maria Unali for inviting us to come along.

Exciting New Product - J Bronze

Bond Hair Religion is happy to announce that we have taken on a brand new beauty tanning product.  J Bronze, Jennifer Hawkins' new beauty product, is a tanning product that is streak free and rather than putting pigment onto the skin this tan exposes your own melanin pigment giving you the most natural looking tan yet. The product comes in a spray, cream and mousse and comes in dark and medium shades. This amazing product retails from $24.95 - $39.95. Come in and see the new Jennifer Hawkins range and make an investment in amazing glowing skin today.

The Big 30!!

Inspirations in Life by Jenni - Interview with Jenni


Bond:  Who inspired you?

Jenni:  As a young child I had the amazing joy of having an eccentric Grandmother who never really grew up.  She was, and still is, an inspiration to watch as an artist, musician and who possesses a wicked sense of humour.  I remember her letting me set her hair with rollers and playing hairdressers from when I was about 7 years old.  She is now 92 years old and can I say she is still an inspiration to me. As I reminisce and celebrate 30 years of hairdressing, my Grandmother was my inspiration to let go and allow creativity and laughter to be part of my everyday life.

Our Bravehearts Raffle

As part of Jen's Kokoda fundraiser we are now holding two raffles to help raise funds for Bravehearts.  The first raffle prize is for a GHD Air Blowdryer and a GHD straightening iron valued at $500.00 and will be drawn on 20 September 2013.  Tickets for the GHD raffle are $10.00 each or 3 for $25.00. The second raffle is for two tickets to see Pink live in concert on Monday 2 September 2013.  Tickets for this raffle are $20.00 each and will be drawn on Saturday 24 August 2013.  Get in quick as tickets are selling fast and good luck to all who enter.

Train the Trainer

Leslie was lucky enough to attend a wonderful course by hair educator Tracey Hughes. He learnt how to speak effectively in public and compile lesson plans for all kinds of training from small class rooms to huge stages in front of large audiences. It was a very worth-while course, and we wish Leslie the best with all his educational endeavours.
