Stylist to the stars Errol knows his stuff when it comes to hair and we caught up with him to get the low-down on some great styles that might just save you that extra trip to the hairdressers.
Pudding Bowl - To style the pudding bowl, blow dry it using a round brush with everything going under. Otherwise, use the largest tongs you have or ghds and bend them under as you use them.
Tiffany Tom Boy - The best thing about this look is the versatility - wear it dishevelled and tousled with product and it looks really cool and gives height to the crown; style it with less product and you get a much more elegant finish. I wouldn't recommend cutting it yourself but if you're going to, pull the top sections up straight, hold between your fingers an inch from the top and let the ends fan out, then randomly break up with the point of the scissors. If you're going to cut at home, invest in some proper hairdressing scissors - regular scissors will mangle the hair.
Soho Rock Chic - To manage this style, start off with a bit of root movement by using a paddle or vent brush. It should look matte rather than shiny, so use a matte gel or putty. Steal your boyfriend's products for this one to save on pennies!
Rebellious Roots - There's a fine line with roots - two or three inches isn't good but a couple of centimetres can look great! Plaiting hair with re-growth is a good way to make the most of it as the contrast of colours looks beautiful, or kiss curls, anything flat to the head. Don't do anything too quiffy - if the hair lifts up you'll get too obvious a line. If you know you're not going to have regular retouches make sure your stylist chooses similar colours to start with - this makes regrowth far more subtle and easier to wear.
Skin Head - Obviously there's minimum upkeep for this look, but I'd recommend using a wax to rejuvenate and make the scalp look healthy.
