Violet + Copper = GAME. CHANGER. 🔥💜

If you’ve heard me talk about this before… it’s because it matters. A LOT.🧡

When you’re creating copper and want that rich, dimensional depth without losing that gorgeous tone, violet is about to become your new best friend. Whether you’re formulating light, dark, or somewhere in between understanding how violet supports copper is paramount.

Once you truly understand the science behind copper tonality and how these pigments interact, everything shifts. You won’t just elevate your coppers… you’ll level up your blondes, brunettes, and reds all at the same time.

This is how you change the game behind the chair.

Follow for more education!

Also don’t forget to check out my guides on my website and sign up for deeper dives. ✨

Copper is impossible to maintain✨

That’s the narrative I hear all the time when creating coppers… yet clients often come back browned out or dull.

Some of the time it’s not the colour that’s the problem it’s the lack of home care to maintain the vibrancy between appointments or heat tools.

@colordefence has honestly been my saving grace for this. On this client I used a combination of Lemon Yellow and Juicy Orange for a refresh at the backwash, and sent her home with the 3-step program formulated for my client to match my permanent colour as her maintenance formula.

Healthy colour at home = vibrant copper for longer 🧡

Well it’s Friday 🙌

What an incredible week it’s been. I’ve taken some much-needed time off to spend quality time with family, celebrating our daughter’s 13th birthday and my friend’s son turning 12 🧡

It’s been such a reminder that it’s okay to slow down sometimes, take a break, and focus on yourself and the people who matter most.

This week I also opened the door to something completely new and exciting… and honestly, I am SO pumped for what’s coming next. The support around me has been incredible and I’m feeling really grateful right now.

In the middle of all that, I’ve also been getting ready for @hairconshow ✨ I have THREE exciting things launching there, including some amazing partnerships and education opportunities. One of these partnerships is a complete first for me and them and we genuinely cannot wait to share it with you all.

Alongside everything else, I’ve also started focusing on some self-care and my fitness journey too. It’s definitely going to be a journey, but an exciting one thanks to @clairelovefitness 💪

Feeling very grateful for everything happening right now.

What are your wins from this week? What are you celebrating or feeling grateful for? I’d love to hear in the comments 👇

Copper education matters, especially in blonde work!

To create clean, beautiful blondes, you need to understand warmth before you can remove or control it.

And sometimes we need to shift the language to remember that copper = warmth.

When you understand warmth, you create blondes with more confidence, control, and consistency 🧡

Happy World Redhead Day 🧡🔥

Copper hair is one of the most beautiful and most misunderstood colour families in hairdressing.

People often think “copper” is just one shade, but there are so many variations within it. Copper covers everything from soft strawberry tones, rich auburns, golden coppers, vibrant true coppers, deeper cinnamon shades, and every single one needs a different approach to formulation, depth, warmth, and maintenance 🙌

That’s one of the reasons I love specialising in copper hair so much. Whether it’s enhancing a natural redhead, creating a completely custom formulated copper, or teaching other hairdressers how to confidently work with these tones, there’s so much artistry behind getting copper right and truly understanding the colour.

So happy redhead day everyone - please tag me in some of your copper creations, I would love to see 😍

I am so excited to say that Copper Queen Education is going to be at HairCon 2026 🤩

After attending HairCon over the years and guest featuring on other people’s stands, it feels like a huge pinch me moment to say that I’m going to be there independent representing Copper Queen Education!

There’s going to be so much going on, including my top tips and tricks, live demos, guests artists and everything you’d need to get a taste of what CQ Education is all about 🧡

Make sure to come and find me - I can’t wait to see you all!

Who’s going to be there?!

Last nights live was all about working smarter, staying creative, and giving our clients the freedom they deserve ✨

One of my absolute favourite tools in my business is ColourStart — and honestly, it’s been game changing.

I know some people hear “£15” and immediately think it’s a downside… but £15 for a lifetime of creative freedom every single time your client sits in your chair? That’s incredible value. 🙌

ColourStart means:
✨ No more panic when your client says “Can we do something different today?”
✨ Freedom to use different colour brands when YOU want to
✨ A smoother, more flexible salon experience
✨ A patch test system that belongs to the client
✨ Government-backed testing with built-in insurance

And the biggest thing? My clients LOVE it. They feel empowered, looked after, and confident knowing they’ve got flexibility with their colour appointments.

The only time ColourStart wouldn’t apply is if something has medically changed — and realistically, in that situation, colour services shouldn’t be going ahead anyway.

We don’t make money from it. It’s simply about giving clients choice, protecting ourselves as professionals, and creating more freedom behind the chair 🎨

If you haven’t looked into it yet, definitely check out ColourStart 👏

I’ve been looking up to @copperqueeneducation since forever🧡

Rachel is absolutely killing it with her copper hair educationand I’ll never forget watching her win the @creativeheadmag Education award and seeing her receive her flowers after so many years of dedication to her craft ✨
