Actually, I just switched afters years at Sabune Cabine because they refused to not use bleach on my hair. So, for considerably less $, better coffee, WiFi connection and an even better location I tried NEXT at ION yesterday. Superb blonde colour and NO BLEACH, it can be done!

Let's face it Goldilocks, you need to know who to trust when it comes to your tresses.
Caucasian hair is very different to Asian hair, you don't have to be a scientist to figure that one out.
So you need a hairdresser that has had plenty of practise in primping golden manes.
We've explored the Island to uncover the salons you can trust - so we can bring to you The Golden List.

From platinum to sandy or strawberry to ash - there is a blond colour out there waiting to be discovered. Why not mix it up with the pixie for the ultimate head-turning style.
