Black Flamingo Studio

Is anyone else just a little bit sick of slicking their hair back?

The clips are back. The headbands are back. The messy braids are back. And some days we’re officially letting our flyaways live their best lives.

Consider this your spring permission slip to have FUN with your hair again

Save this for your next “wtf do I do with my hair” morning + tell us which one you’re bringing back first

let’s talk HAIR CARE 🫧 because the colour appointment is only half of your service..

This gorgeous client came in ready for a refresh and left with the dreamiest fresh colour.. but one thing we always talk about with our clients? What happens at home matters.

The right haircare can help keep your colour looking fresh, your hair feeling healthy + all that salon goodness going for longer.

And no, there isn’t one shampoo + conditioner that works for everyone..

the hair.. and the products that got her there

Soft, dimensional blonde with that creamy brightness, healthy shine + the dreamiest bounce.

And can we have a moment for SHIMMER.ME BLONDE? 💜 The finishing touch for extra shine + luminosity because blonde this good deserves to ✨shimmer✨

Maybe your curls aren’t the problem… maybe they just need the right cut + routine..

Embracing your natural texture starts in the salon with a cut that works with your curl pattern, rather than trying to force it into a shape it doesn’t naturally want to make.

Then we make sure you actually know what to do when you get home 🙌

From the right wash + conditioner to choosing a curl product based on whether you’re air drying, diffusing, have fine, wavy or full curly.. we’ll help you build a routine that makes sense for YOUR hair.

Because good curl days shouldn’t only happen when you leave the salon.

Want your salon results to hit different? Here’s how to be a gold star client so YOU get the result you want..

⭐️ USE HEAT PROTECTOR
Your hair + 200°C tools = not besties. Protect it before you style

⭐️ HAVE INSPO PICS READY
Come with the screenshots! Even better, bring 2–3 so we can nail the vibe and set realistic expectations (no ai allowed)

⭐️ USE QUALITY HAIRCARE
You invested in the hair.. now invest in the aftercare. Your products can make or break how long that salon fresh feeling lasts 🫶

⭐️ BE HONEST WITH US
Colour history? Box dye? DIY fringe at 2am? 👀 We need to know. No judgement, ust better results. Save this post so you won’t miss a beat at your nect appointment

⭐️ USE THE AT HOME TREATMENTS
Your treatment isn’t just for decoration in the shower. USE. IT. Your hair will thank you 💆‍♀️

⭐️ GET THE TRIM.. A HEALTHY AMOUNT
Healthy hair doesn’t mean never cutting it. Regular trims keep those ends looking fresh, glossy & expensive✨

After years of doing hair (and making a few questionable hair decisions of my own 😂), there are some things I just would never do to my hair.

No sleeping with it wet. No forgetting about my scalp. No scorching hot showers. Heat protection ALWAYS.

But probably the most important rule? I would never stop having fun with my hair 🤍

Hair grows, colours change, trends come and go.. and I think we should be able to have a little fun with it along the way.

Swipe through for my hairdresser non negotiables and tell me in the comments… which one are you guilty of?

Winter hair, you served us well… but we’re moving on..

Fresh ends. Brighter colour. Healthy scalps. Natural texture. Glossy hair. And a bathroom shelf that actually makes sense.

Consider this your sign to give your hair a little spring reset!

The older I get, the more I realise it’s the little things that make life feel really good 🤍

The outfit that makes you feel like you.
The hair that gives you that extra confidence.
Slow mornings. Time to move your body. Dancing with your favourite people. Laughing until your cheeks hurt.

Turns out, those little moments are actually the big ones.

Here’s your reminder to romanticise the everyday... and never underestimate what a good hair day can do for your mood ✨

What’s one little thing that’s making life feel good lately? Tell us below. 🫶

“Salon quality” gets thrown around a lot... but what does it actually mean?

It’s not about fancy packaging or a bigger price tag. It’s about products with ingredients that actually work, are made for your specific hair goals and give you better results using less product.

And if you’re thinking, “I can’t afford a whole new routine,” don’t stress, you don’t need to buy everything at once.

✨ Start with a quality shampoo + conditioner
✨ Add a leave in treatment when you can
✨ Then build your styling lineup over time

The goal isn’t to own every product, it’s to invest in the right ones for your hair. Build your routine as your budget allows and your future hair will thank you.

Not sure where to start? Pop into the salon or send us a DM and we’ll help you build a routine that actually works for your hair (and your budget)!
