I use my computer every day so its importaint to me how it looks and performance. those two things mainly. Looks and performance.

I have always used windows - until last week! Now I use Linux.

I confess Its better. I did have vista home premium and it was okay, but when it came to looks, just to get my desktop to look the way I wanted it too (I’m very fussy about things like that you see) It cost a fair dent in the wallet. And, thats before I buy the software I need for my other ventures. Then if it crashes you have to find all the keys aaagh!!

I have a very big love for fractals, I am no expert but I do regularly produce fractal animations as a hobby. I am always amazed by their never ending beauty. The animation I produced here is one of the Mandelbrot fractal set. Did you know that this fractal is in fact a graph of all the complex (infinite) numbers that are in between zero & one. Each Pixel of the image represents a number and each number is given a colour. This is how you draw/see the fractal. Any gaps in the fractal are black.Whilst the boundary around the gap is infinite in detail.

Now if you have been reading these “passion for hair” posts, then you should be building up a pretty good idea of just what is involved in reaching the top standard for your hair. And i’m afraid it doesn’t stop there, another importaint part of your hair routine is products. Now I am not going to go to deeply into this as we could be here forever. There are so many products out there that it would take forever to cover them all. What I will say is this. You should always buy your products from a salon.

Here is another crucial point to remember if you want to get your hair looking the best it ever has. This is a very big factor in having your hair be the envy of all those around you. Its colour. Now a lot of people think that colouring your hair is a bad thing to do, and that it just ruins the condition in the long run. Well there is some truth in this - as colour can do some serious damage if it is done incorrectly. After all, you are putting some pretty strong chemicals on it and this has its risks. But if you colour your hair the right way it can have spectacular results.

So you want that hair that looks effortless? Well let me tell you it takes plenty of effort. The key is keeping the cuticle in tip top condition. Do this and your hair will shine like a godess! Your cuticle is the very outer layer of the hair shaft.

Okay so what is it that makes good hair so bloody good? You know when you see someone and their hair looks amazing and your like, why cant I have hair like that?

My name is Nik and I have been in the hairdressing industry for over 12 years now. I work in a busy London style salon and I also am heavily involved in the session scene. This means that I am involved in catwalk shows, photo shoots, music videos and lots lots more! Everyday my clients ask me things about their hair and I give them the answers. I feel that a lot of what I say should be known by the client already, but all to often I find that the client was unaware of the facts that would allow them to have beautiful hair - without having to visit the salon every time they leave the house!
