If these latest launches and cult favourites aren’t on your radar, where have you been?

GO FOR GOLD

Andis Master Cordless Limited Gold Edition delivers the classic performance you expect from the Cordless Master in a limited edition custom gold colour. This special edition clipper is driven by an extremely powerful, high-speed rotary motor with blade speeds over 7,200 SPM. £299.99

WAX ON, WAX OFF

OSMO Clay Wax has been given a make-over with new packaging and a new old-school scent of rhubarb and custard. The best-selling claybased styler gives textured control, a matte finish and a tousled look. Salon Price: £4.55+VAT

NATURAL TEXTURE

Upper Deluxe Clay is a strong hold product with a natural finish that is easily reworked throughout the day and just as importantly, washed out at the end. Clay will tame both short and long hair, adding texture and control.

ESSENTIAL EDIT

A carefully curated collection of premium tools exclusively for barbershop and salon retail, WAHL Grooming Tools: Retail Range is not available to the mass retail market. The exclusive range features a shaver, beard trimmer and grooming set. £9.49-£13.99+VAT. Available at most UK wholesalers.

SPORTS LUXE

With new quilted upholstery for 2021, the REM Voyager GT has had a refresh. The diamondshaped feature stitching on the seat and backrest gives the chair a GT sporty feel. It also features a large, powerful hydraulic pump, adjustable headrest, shave hook and towel rail. Available from Better Salon Supplies. RRP £1462; special price £1035 (all prices exclude VAT at 20%).

SMART PACKAGING

men-ü Ultra Concentrate Shampoos and Conditioners now come with refills in the kits, which means the products perform better, last four times as long, contain a high proportion of active ingredients and feature up to 90% less packaging.

MAXIMUM LUXURY

Luxury and comfort powered by leading-edge electronic motorisation, the Takara Belmont Maxim Chair represents a culmination of 100 years of innovation. Available in two models, the Prestige and Estetic, both feature 360˚ lockable rotation and the former offers a rollout leg-rest and high-grade footrest and the latter a full-flat leg-rest and upholstered footrest. £7,205-£7,720

MIST THE CUT

Fudge Professional Curl Revolution Mist gives weightless curl enhancement and revolutionises the look and feel of your client’s curls. No stickiness, no heaviness and none of that crispy crunch so often associated with curl products. £15.50

STYLE ON TAP 

The Takara Belmont Majolica Porto with its broader neck rest is ideal for both frontwash and backwash. Features include a Japanese ceramic basin, a super soft gel-filled neck cushion, an ergonomic showerhead, retracting cord, hair-trap system and chrome plumbing. Available from Moda. £1174+VAT

SMALL AND MIGHTY

Following on from the success of the BaByliss PRO Prima 3000 straightener, the Nano Titanium Prima 3100 Slim has arrived. It contains the same heat technology and curved heated plates, but now comes in a slimmer design, so perfect for use on shorter hair. RRP £120

DEEPLY CARING

American Crew Hair Care Collection is a new and improved range of shampoo and conditioners that focuses on environmental sustainability. The range contains the Daily Cleansing Shampoo, Deep Moisturizing Shampoo, Daily Moisturizing Conditioner and Detox Shampoo. From £11.50
