I have always been a fan of Fudge hair products so when they annouced they were bringing a new product to the market I was interested to try it out.

Matte Hed Extra is the big brother of the original massively successful Matte Hed and in relation to the original, offers a much stronger hold that lasts longer, is significantly drier and more matte than original Matte Hed. So your hair stays styled but you don’t look like half a tub of product has been emptied upon your head! Also a added bonus is the fragrance, I find most hair products smell off putting and a chemically but the Fudge Matte Hed Extra actually smells awesome and is a pleasure to apply in the morning.

Fudge Matte Hed Extra Wax is out now and has a RRP of £11.95

Award winning celebrity hairdresser Adee Phelan, has been singing the praises of a pioneering hair loss solution available from HIS Hair Clinic.

HIS Hair clinic provides an on-trend solution to male hair loss with their innovative Micro Hair Technique (MHT™). The ground-breaking scalp pigmentation technique has been pioneered by HIS hair clinic and creates a natural looking simulation of micro hairs on the scalp, creating the appearance of a short cropped hair style. The technique is becoming well known within the industry and has gained support from award winning hairdresser, Adee Phelan, who became a household name after styling David Beckham’s hair for the infamous GQ shoot before the World Cup in 2002, which consequently won him the ‘Image of the Year’ award. He also appeared in Channel 4’s hit show ‘The Salon’ and has multiple award nominations and wins for Male Hairdresser of the Year.

Phelan believes MHT™ is a great alternative to hair restoration options that are currently available. He say’s ‘I came across MHT™ and thought it was an amazing technique. Finally there’s a product on the market that men who suffer from hair loss can relate to. Nowadays, cropped hair cuts are worn by a lot of men, so MHT™ is perfect for those who want an on trend look. Its non surgical and easy to maintain after the technique has been applied and I was amazed to find that HIS Hair Clinic have clients from all over the world that come to them for this treatment.’

The interesting part is MHT™ involves no surgery, no scarring, no hair pieces and the end results are  they say highly effective. Scalp pigmentation is a highly sophisticated treatment based on a specialised scalp procedure. The procedure can be used by men who have always wanted to sport the Vin Diesel or Jason Statham look but have been unable to due to their hair loss. HIS hair Clinic can customise the pigment to suit the individuals scalp and overall appearance.

Treatments are available throughout the UK in clinics based in Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff and London’s prestigious Harley Street

Before

Now I’m mostly more traditional when it comes to styling products for men and tend to subscribe to the less is more school of thought but occasionally I am tempted to change my mind and this very well could be one of those occasions.

We were very kindly sent the new Cloud Nine Micro Iron hair straighteners and asked to give them a go. While these straighteners can of course be used by both men and women it would seem they have been designed with us men in mind.  Now to give this product a proper review I have enlisted the help of my housemate Don, as I didn’t feel I had adequate hair length to put them to good use, and well he’s a scruffy so and so and could do with a tidy up….

Firstly I asked Don if he had used hair straighteners before which he had so I asked him for his initial thoughts on the look and size of the product.

“the most noticeable thing is the size, I love the fact they are small enough to stick in my wash bag which is great news when I’m travelling as size is a premium”

After

The irons are actually only 6inches long and according to the instructions use universal high voltage which means they will work flawlessly abroad without losing essential power. Also while reading the instructions I noticed they automatically power off after ten minutes which is a nice safety feature

Well all agree in the house it’s a big improvement but would Don buy them?  “ I do currently have a pair of straighteners but they are massive, I love the fact these are so small and do the job just as well as my full size set so I would definitely consider picking a pair of the New Clouds up purely from the portability point of view”
