Patrick cameron surprise hair live reveal!

Viewers of Patrick Cameron’s regular Monday night Education in Isolation session on Facebook and Instagram were treated to a surprise hair reveal this week. The session started with Patrick showing how to create two effortless and inspiring looks on his mannequins, but as he finished his second style he started to talk about his own hair. Patrick explained to viewers that at the beginning of his career he was recognised for his long curly hair. “It became my trademark” he said, and went on to explain that 15 years ago when he had his hair cut short it had created quite a sensation. Patrick was now facing the dilemma that many clients do, having to colour his hair and with the constant root touch-ups he had decided to grow out his colour and embrace his natural look. His trademark brown curls were to be replaced with white strands and it was quite a contrast. Whilst Patrick was making up his mind about what to do, he bought a wig, coloured and styled it to match his own hair and wore this without anyone knowing for quite some time. When he got to the stage where there was almost more white hair than coloured hair he decided to enlist the help of creative director, Marco Erbi to give him a new look. Short haircut complete, there was still some colour on the ends, so Patrick and Marco approached it like they would with any client and over several sessions gently cleansed out the remaining colour (they used Wella Blondor Multi Blonde and then toned with Wella Colour Fresh in Pearl Blonde.) Patrick revealed his new look to his surprised audience on Monday evening’s live session, and the positive comments came rushing in immediately – his followers absolutely loved his new look! “My hair was getting whiter and whiter,” said Patrick.” After only a few days the white line would begin to show, and I decided to see what it would look like, and I’m absolutely delighted as to how it’s turned out.” He continued: “It’s been a very long time since I’ve had hair as short as this and I’m loving it, combined with my natural colour it’s worked out so well. No more root touch-ups, but I’m now exploring the Wella True Grey range of semi-permanent colours”. Congratulations Patrick, HJ loves the new natural look.
