As part of TOP HAIR International – Trend & Fashion Days, Düsseldorf 2013, Gro are very proud to have one of our amazing stylists – Rino Riccio (Lavender Hill) – showcasing his skills on stage in front of thousands of fellow hair professionals and events visitors.

The international hair trade fair will host shows, workshops & lectures with more than 400 exhibitors and brands on display. Check out the official Facebook page here.

The workshop stages are divided up into the topics of cut, colour and styling and will also include a “mixed stage”. Rino will be performing on stage at a cut workshop on Saturday from 7.20pm, showing off his skills with some innovative work focusing on men’s styling.

He’ll be on stage with a few models, working live whilst explaining his techniques. We’re super excited for him, and can’t wait to hear all about it when he’s back!

Good luck Rino x

He’s such a great guy and it was a real pleasure to have him visit the team at Gro. We think Donna, our Salon Operations Manager, was preeeeetty smitten, judging by the photo she posted on twitter

He left with his trademark skin fade and shape-up, superbly executed by Orlando Klein (Clapham North branch), ready for a night out at the Rihanna for River Island fashion event… Looking sharp as ever!

You can catch up with all the latest Jahmene news on his Facebook & Twitter pages.

Everyone at Gro would like to wish Jahmene all the best for the future, he’s going to be a star!

Nothing cheers up our salons more than a visit from some of Gro’s furry friends. All of our team go barking mad (geddit) for a cute dog, and most recently Guinea Pigs!!! Aaron and Paige from Lavender Hill got quite attached as you can see from the pictures.

Maybe we should run a cutest client pet of the month award???

Bellow is the amazing work of Lili Montiel (Top Stylist at Clapham North Branch) on her gorgeous client Jo. The extensions used are from Great Lengths, one of the worlds leaders in human hair extension for over 20 years, made from the finest 100% human hair.

Lili perfectly matched Jo’s Ombre effect, pre-colouring the extensions before individually applying them & creating this beautiful look. Absolutely stunning!

The Catwalk took place on London’s busy streets, starting at Somerset House and ending at Freemasons Hall in the City, then back again.

The collection by Carlotta Actis Barone showcased vibrant bright colours and graffiti style body suits. Our team of gro.stylists completed the look with a sleek low ponytail and bright orange stripe through the parting. Check out the guys at work in the video & pictures below!

A fantastic day, lots of fun and amazing hair. Well done guys!!!

Our current favourite is ITV’s Mr Selfridge. Set in the early 20th century, it brings back the classic American ‘Gibson Girl’ hairstyle, that is itself a more modern take on the Marquise de Pompadour’s look form the mid 1700s.

The look was created by back combing the (very long) hair and setting it high over the forehead, often supported and drawn over a matted piece of hair called a ‘Rat’. The sides and back of the hair were also brought up into the crown and the outer layers smoothed to give a soft, fluffy overall look.

These classic Edwardian looks can be easily recreated using some of our great bumble and bumble styling range (Spray de Mode, Surf Spray, Thickening Hairspray and Styling Wax would be perfect).

So, if you fancy stepping back in time for a party or special occasion why not come in and have some fun…

We had lots of fun when Gro’s Colour Director – Carla – popped over to Lavender Hill from her residency at Clapham North to share some of her amazing Ombre skills with the team.

The lucky guinea pig was team coordinator Maria, who’s hair looked gorgeous after the master class.

We hope Aaron & Paige were paying lots of attention!!
