Stilo Pedicures

What crazy weather we've had in Cambridge this week. With this warmer weather it's the perfect opportunity to get the toes out and pop on your favourite sandals. With that in mind, you will need a pedicure to get your toes looking and fancy as your shoes.

Here are our top 5 tips for the perfect pedicure….

1) When removing your old nail varnish try to use an acetone free nail varnish as acetone can dry out and harm your nails.

2) Remove any hard callous skin with a foot file when the feet are dry, concentrating on heels and the balls of the feet. Water softens the skin and therefore you may remove too much when wet.

3) When you are filing your nail work from the inside out in a sweeping motion, do not saw at the nail this can cause it to split and weaken.

4) You should always use a base coat of polish as this will not only protect and strengthen the nail but will also prevent discoloration/staining of the nail plate.

5) Roll the polish bottle between your hands rather than shaking it will prevent air bubbles.

Here at Stilo we offer pedicures from as little as £25. We also offer a fantastic new range of O.P.I coloured gel nails for both fingers and toes. Visit our website www.stilonuovo.co.uk for our more information and pricing.

We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Winter Hair Care Tips

With all this cold weather and snow we would like to share our top 5 winter hair care tips....

1. Prevention is better than cure, so if you are heading out on a frosty day, it's worth popping on some headgear. A hat (not too tight as this will restrict scalp circulation) or scarf can help to protect your hair from the winter winds and thereby reduce their drying effects.

2. Try to cut back on shampooing at this time of year as very frequent washing can dry out your hair. Washing in warm water will help your hair to retain moisture, try not to keep your head under the water for too long as heat will only add to the dryness. If you can bear it, a cold water rinse will lock in the loveliness. We recommend using Redken Real Control Shampoo which provides moisture and control for dry hair.

3. Winter is the time when your hair needs all the help it can get so proper conditioning is essential. We recommend using Redken Real Control Conditioner which not only moisturises but also repairs and detangles.

4. A rich moisturiser with plenty of natural ingredients is a winter must-have - for very thick or heavy hair, try a deep conditioning treatment once a week to lock in that essential moisture, try using Redken Intense Renewal Super Moisturizing Mask on a regular basis or once a week as an intensive treatment.

5. If you suffer with a dry, flaky scalp, try Redken Scalp Relief Soothing Balance which soothes, calms and destresses scalp whilst cleansing.

Winter Weather Skin Care

In this harsh winter weather it is important to always cleanse tone and moisturise morning and evening to keep your skin looking radiant and feeling great. However, to give your face that extra special glow, we recommend regular facials to deeply cleans and prevent wrinkles.

Deep cleansing facials target right into the skin below the epidermis and into the dermis, cleansing from below the top level of the skin preventing spots and decreasing oil.

Facials also exfoliate the skin leaving the top layer smooth, supple and radiant, this is important to prevent spots and blackheads by removing dead skin cells which block the pores.

Here at Stilo we provide free face mapping with all facials, we identify skin types and problem areas. We also have a fantastic range of Dermalogica products available to our clients!

Whilst a facial is good for the skin, it is also good for the soul as you get to lie down and be pampered without a care in the world, whilst one of our talented, trained beauticians focuses their time, care and attention to making your skin look beautiful, fresh, clean and radiant.

Don’t forget we are also giving you 50% off our range of body exfoliation treatments which help reduce the appearance of sun spots and hyper pigmentation and leave your skin super smooth. This offer is on until the end of January so you have a good few days left to make the most of it!
