Finally its here. The natural non‐toxic answer to kera6n straightening.
From Feb 19 we will be showcasing Aveda’s new Smooth Infusion smoothing system, which uses
Tourmaline to smooth and straighten the hair. This is a huge improvement from the formaldehyde reliant
kera6n systems. When heated, formaldehyde is inherently toxic to the prac66oner, the client and anyone
siFng close by. If frizz free hair is your 2012 resolu6on then ask recep6on to organise a complimentary
consulta6on and experience smooth hair, naturally.
February is also Litreship month. Purchase any two 1 litre shampoo or condi6oners and receive a
complimentary wooden paddle brush which rrp $49.95. These brushes are hugely popular for brushing
out long hair or stretching wavy hair, they are gentle and easy to use.
We have updated our web site and improved the mobile and tablet func6onality. This makes it easier to
manage your own bookings in your own 6me. Visit Lucespace.com and while you’re there click on and
‘like’ our Facebook page and keep well abreast of all the comings and goings, events, compe66ons and
how to’s!!
Keep an eye out for our accessories space; we have been sourcing cool hair pieces, brushes and
equipment. One I love is the Tangle Teezer hair brush. My daughter, who has the world’s most sensi6ve
scalp and cringes if I come near her with a hair brush, loves it! The brush will gently & effortlessly banish
tangles & knots from your hair in an instant, without pain....
I hope you enjoy this edi6on of our magazine and look forward to seeing you in the salon
All the best for 2012

Long Luscious Hair
As we approach Autumn, its 6me to
see what looks are hot off the
catwalk, and how to wear it on the
street. Dolce and Gabanna’s
Autumn/Winter Collec6on featured a
relaxed take on the bouncy blowdry
which is perfect for everyday wear. Roots aren’t given too
much volume, midlengths are mostly straight with just a bit of
movement and the ends have a gentle curl. It’s sophis6cated,
but not over‐the‐top, so it’s great for any occasion.
Wet Hair
To wear this look wet the roots and slick the hair back with gel
and you can wear the ends either damp or dry. Dress the look
up by blow drying the ends giving them a loose wave or pull
the hair into pony tail.
Colour Trends
By Courtnie Cohn
Warm Colour
The colour forecast for Autumn is
warmth through colour. Think rich
browns, deep violets, stunning
garnet reds and bujery blondes.
Expect fewer highlights and more
bold solid colours, and while the balyage will s6ck around,
you’ll see the look with richer tones and more warmth.

Everyday
To recreate Dolce and Gabanna’s Long Luscious look on Merri,
Bec started by washing her hair with the AVEDA Pure Abundance
shampoo and condi6oner for effortless volume. She then prepped
it with Phomollient styling foam, for weightless shine, volume and
protec6on from heat styling. Taking small sec6ons, Bec blowdried
Merri’s hair, holding each sec6on in place with clips (a modern,
relaxed alterna6ve to hot rollers). This look works for any long
hair styles, Merri’s shorter layers produce a slightly different
result, but is equally wearable and oh‐so now. Once it was
blowdried, Bec gently removed the pins, brushing out the curls.
Finally, she used Light Elements Smoothing Fluid to reduce fly
aways and add shine, and held it all in place with Air Control
Hairspray.

16. Our
Winner!
Every year Luc Espace and Tribe come together for the annual In-Salon
Competition. One of the biggest events on our calendar, the competition
showcases the talent and creativity of our team and the “Indigenous” theme
inspired a huge variety of looks. Congratulations to our winner, Natalie
Martin! As one of our technicians at Tribe Lifestyle, (and creative hair artist!)
its time we got to know Nat...
I started hairdressing in 1996 so I’ve been doing this for 16 years going on 17 this year. I’ve always loved
hair. I used to braid all my friends hair in primary school and I also used to straighten my sisters hair using
the iron on the ironing board.
The first salon I worked at was called "The Cut Above" in Paddington. I have done a lot of courses with
Wella, Loreal and Toni & Guy and trained with some of the best hairdressers in the business both locally
and interna6onal.
What do I love about hairdressing? COLOUR
COLOUR COLOUR! I've trained and specialised
in colour and absolutely love what I do. I’m
working with my passion and that makes
my job so much easier. I look forward to
passing on my knowledge and teaching
colour.
I have adopted many crazy hairstyles over
the years but my favourite was my afro. I had
a perm that was done with pipe cleaners so it
was super 6ght. I looked like "Soul Glow" from
the movie "Coming to America" with Eddie
Murphy but I loved it!
I like fashion that doesn’t follow the trend or
what the hot styles are right now. Fashion is
limitless.

17. Nat’s
Winning Entry
My inspira6on was to create a tradi6onal
looking samba headpiece out of hair and have
it look and move like a real one. It actually
took me a couple of weeks to make. I used
christmas decora6ons as the base, feathers,
lots of synthe6c hair and a coat hanger was in
there too! A lot of prepara6on was involved, it
took me half a day to braid in synthe6c hair
into my models own hair.
I enjoyed stepping out of my comfort zone
and pushing myself to try do something I
never would have thought I could do. It was so
much fun. And seeing everyone else's amazing
work was truly inspira6onal.
What the Judges Thought
“Natalie's entry was innova6ve and crea6ve
with a spot of exo6c. Natalie works as a colour
technician for Tribe so it was awesome to see
her step out of her comfort zone and produce
a styling piece.”
‐Courtnie Cohn, Technical Director
“Natalie won because of the unique way she
representated the “indigenous” theme. The
colour, style and performance were all so
crea6ve and very well executed.”

18. Hairdresser Profile
Tadrosse
Young and ambitious, Pete has gone from
promising apprentice to hot property stylist
during his years at Luc Espace. Find out why he
loves doing what he does.
I started hairdressing in January 2007 and have spent five
amazing wonderful years at Luc Espace. I love hairdressing
because I love the changes. Its never a typical “nine to five” day
doing the same jobs week in week out. Every client is different
and every haircut is different.
I’m obsessed with fashion. The runways and celebri6es are where most of my inspira6on comes from.
Recently, I’ve been focusing more on fashion blogs than mainstream magazines. I find them more real and
you’re geFng a bejer sense of what’s really happening. Right now its all about mess mess mess! Not
dirty, not bed hair, but styled mess. Think Mary Kate Olsen or Blake Lively.
The highlight of my job is being able to work with my friends, having the opportunity to do this day in day
out is fantas6c. I’ve also been blessed with some great opportuni6es to work on numerous photo shoots
and fashion shows which is such an awesome thing to experience. If I had to single out one experience
that was an absolute highlight it would definitely be my gradua6on from appren6ce into hair stylist.
My ambi6on for the future is to take the hairdressing world by storm! I want to travel with my skill and
style hair all over the world. Session styling is definitely a passion so I hope that the future brings more
photographic work. I also love passing on my skills so I can’t wait to be at a level where I can take
someone under my wing and teach them everything I know!
