Does you hair have the X Factor?








Hi Guys,

Thank goodness those X Factor auditions are over! I couldn't stand another Saturday night cringing at some of the awful singers!

But have you noticed the judges' hairstyles? (The girls', not Simon and Louis!). Competitive hairdressing at its best. From Cheryl's big bouncy curls to Pixie Lott's beachy waves or Nicole's sleek and sultry mane. Each week we are treated to a gorgeous, new style. Now, one thing these girls do have in common is beautiful, glossy locks but don't be fooled. Those pop starlets have as much colouring and straightening as their hair can possible handle; they do know a good conditioning treatment when they see one though.

So, start preparing you locks for the harsh Winter months and book in for a conditioning treatment now. I love Wella SP Alchemy Treatment. Your stylist will match a treatment to your unique hair type to ensure fabulous results (choose from Smoothen, Hydrate, Repair, Volumise, Color Save, Shine Define, Clear Scalp and Balance Scalp masks) and will mix with an infusion (Repair, Volumise, Color Save, Smoothen, Hydrate), giving fabulous results. Call your local Medusa Salon today and book in! Treatments cost only £15.00 so there is no excuse!

I'm off for a pampering session in the Medusa Salon today!

Celebrity Two - Tone Hair

Hi Guys

Brrrr…it isn’t half getting cold outside. It seems like the Summer is now over and it’s time to swap gladiator sandals for wellies. I am so jealous when I flick through my copy of Hello magazine and see all those celebrities sunning themselves in glamorous California.

But fear not, there is a new hair trend for Autumn which gives us all a little bit of Californication in our lives. Two – tone hair is so LA; it doesn’t look too try-hard and is very relaxed. A gradual dip dye effect looks classy yet edgy and will take you from Summer to Autumn with style.

You can be as daring as you like with this trend; from a graduating praline brown to honey blonde as seen on Drew Barrymore to vibrant rainbow colours like Lady Gaga – the world is your oyster.

Just remember to use a shampoo and conditioner that is kind to coloured hair to ensure your locks remain vibrant and healthy. My absolute favourite is the Sebastian Professional range that is totally colour safe and is suitable for all hair types. Pop into your local Medusa salon and say Coco sent you, the team will be happy to give you more information!

Medusa - Edinburgh's Top Celebrity Salon


Hi Guys!

I have some super exciting news for you all!

During the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Medusa became the premier spot for celeb spotting! Celebrities from all over the world popped in to get their colour freshened up or for a quick cut! After all that hard partying, we all need a little help looking our best and the fabulous Medusa team were on hand to ensure everyone was looking glamorous.

My favourite has to be Ruby Wax, who visited the Teviot Place salon to have her vibrant signature locks coloured. She loved the buzzing salon atmosphere, and absolutely loved me - of course, who doesn't!

Check out the photo we took of Ruby and our top stylist Carol- Ann!
