Angie Dimitriou of Ena Hair is undoubtedly one of Hello Hair's favourite local stylists. We consider ourselves pretty lucky to have not only witnessed Angie's career blossom over the years, but have also been privileged enough to have our tresses on the receiving end of her super skills and extra TLC. For many years Angie was "just around the corner", so we loved nothing more than dropping in for a pre-weekend wash and blowdry.....with an extra side of girly chats and belly laughs. Angie's particular type of magic has you leaving her salon feeling a special kind of amazing on the outside and on the inside! 🥰

We caught up with Angie for a socially distant interview during the most recent Melbourne covid-19 lockdowns that have forced hair salons to close completely for over 3 months. In what continues to be a tremendously challenging time, our girl Angie still radiated so much positivity; we'll let you read for yourself.....

Ditch the false lashes and expensive brow filling products gals – we’ve got the product you need!

You’ve probably noticed that big brows are well and truly in right now (we hope they stay) and so are super long lashes. It's a far cry from the pencil thin brows we all used to love in the 90's, but bold brows and thick, long lashes have never been more fashionable (thank goodness)!

Start with clean, completely dry hair. There's a few ways you can prep the hair here- I chose to spray and brush through a flexible hold hairspray (I used r & co Outer space hair spray because it's light and dry!) or if you start from wet hair you could use something like Oribe's Volumista or Maximista - both feel sticky when wet but once they're dried in they add grip to slippery hair, making it so much easier to wrap around your curling tong.

For an up-style to hold and last the length of the day/night, be sure to wash your hair the day before. Freshly washed hair can be slippery and not hold the hairstyle as well. To prep the hair for this look, I use R+Co Death Valley Dry Shampoo with a little Evo Haze Powder for extra grit!

This style is really simple, and has been made popular by celebrities like Sienna Miller and Mary Kate Olsen.

Hey everyone! I'm SO excited to bring you this tutorial. I get asked so often about how I do the wavy hairstyle that I post so much of on my Instagram- and although I often switch it up (basically just so that I don't get bored!) the fundamentals stay the same, so this is just a really good technique for you to start with!

‘Cos who doesn't love braids?!
This style works on hair of any texture, but best on medium to thick density. That means, the hair can be fine but it's great if you’ve got a lot of strands! We were inspired by the sport luxe trend that's everywhere right now, but there are so many variations you could try with this style.
