Hi
Hoping you have all enjoyed the summer with time to relax with friends and family. Now as we head towards autumn, it’s a refreshing time to take a look at all the new and renewed fashion and hair trends for this season.
Mavericks hosted our annual McMillan coffee morning on the 27th September, all the team made a huge effort of baking amazing selection of cakes. Thankyou to the team, we raised over £300.

MAVERICKS LAUNCHES CLEAN AIR SALON CONCEPT.
Over the last 15 years we have become more and more aware of ingredients in our haircare ranges, and the one who have potential damage to us. In started with sulphates in our shampoos , then moved onto parabens which are preservatives in our products and recently we found that vegan products seem to be the safest products. We have carried out lots of research on different ingredients, and their potential to harm you and our team, that are exposed to them 10 hours a day. So over the next few years we are going to stop using a harmful artificial perfumes/fragrance in every thing we do in the salon. Its important to us that our team are safe and also our clients, companies do not need to publish what chemicals go into their perfumes and for that reason we will be using no perfume or natural perfume products.
MAVERICKS INTRODUCE NEW BEAN TO CUP COFFEE
We have invested in a new coffee machine which turn coffee beans into beautiful fresh coffee. This machine also creates amazing hot chocolate. This is service is included in your hair service. We have also updated our mineral water service; this is available as a free top up service.
Please enjoy!

MAVERICKS IS GOING PERFUME FREE
At Mavericks we have always, I believe, tried to be the first, or a close second! So with that in mind, our next offering is perfume free, we have joined with a manufacture in Finland called SIM, they only produce either perfume free or naturally perfumed products. This belief comes from owning their own factory in Finland and being fully aware that it takes up to 300 different chemicals to make a product smelly. These chemicals are going onto our skin and due to perfume, we are inhaling them. From this major concern short and long term, they decide to take this non perfume stance. To me this make perfect sense, we are professionals are immersed into this 8 hours a day, 5 days weeks, and we want to safe guard our future, this is also highly important for our guests in the salon, it’s important we ensure a safe environment for you.
MAVERICKS FREE FRINGE TRIM SERVICE.
Because we want all our regular guest to look their best all year round, we offer a in-between cut and blowdry free fringe trim service. This is a no appointment service, just walk in and wait for the next available stylist.But we have had some confusion concerning this service, so here we go; this is available only to regular guest of mavericks that have their hair cut and blow-dried every 6 to 9 weeks. The service is only available free between this time. The free fringe trim, is a trim, anymore than 10mm off is not a trim and will need a full paying fringe service. This is not an appointment service; appointments will be charged.

MAVERICKS CANCELLATION POLICY 2023
We have had a lot of no shows over the winter period, so to safe guard our teams salaries and our business, we have adopted a new cancellation policy. If an appointment is not cancelled with 48 hours’ notice of the appointment time. We will then charge £10 for each treatment missed. This policy covers both hair and beauty treatments and is £10 per treatment so if you are booked in for a colour, cut and blow-dry that is two treatments so £20. Please be aware that this policy gives us 48 hours’ notice to rebook the appointment time, we have found that without 48 hours the appointment tends to not be taken. Please help us.
MAVERICKS LAUNCHES DEPOSIT SYSTEM
As you are all fully aware, our costs have been going up and up, we have made allowance for this, whilst maintaining our high standards of hair, beauty and customer service. But over the last few month, we have been hit by an increasing number of guests not arriving for their appointments, this gives us a loss in turnover,, as we still need to pay stylist wages when guest do not arrive. So as of February, we need to take control of this, and like most businesses that operate a appointment system for example restaurants, we will be introducing a deposit system on all appointments of £10 per appointment. Appointments can still be changed as long as we have 48 hours notice. If you change your appointment without 48 hours notice, or forget your appointment then you will loose your deposit.

Anti-humidity action will prevent moisture from entering the hair shaft, meaning less frizz and more smoothness.
MAVERICKS COVID-
To ensure your and the teams safety, we will continue to meet you are reception, take your temperature and ask you to apply some hand sanitiser before entering the salon. Please continue wearing masks if you wish, and please ask your stylist to wear one if it will make you feel more comfortable. We will continue, when appropriate or available, to use every other styling section, and our Garage salon. Thank you for your continued support in this matter, we will review this monthly.
DRY CUTTING
We prefer to work on freshly washed hair so that we can we get the best results, and a neater more precise haircut. It’s not possible to achieve this when the hair has already dried into a shape, and we can’t offer you as even-day guarantee but we can cut hair dry if you wish
MAVERICKS HAIRCUT- A MAVERICKS HAIRCUT IS TWO HAIR CUTS IN ONE
Here at Mavericks we use mainly sulphate free shampoos, the reason being is we believe that they are kinder for your hair and scalp. To simplify things sulphate are general foaming cleansing agents, and are used in lots of cleaning products including shampoos. We believe that they over cleanse the hair, taking out all the condition you have put in, and can make a scalp dry, or even stimulate the sebaceous gland and make the scalp oily. There has been talk that they even make the hair thinner than it should be. All our shampoos are sulphate free, they may not foam as much but they still cleanse the hair and scalp, most of the time you still only need the size of the top of your thumb.
MAVERICKS BLOWDRY BAR
As you are aware we have been running a blowdry bar service for the salon. Which is ran by our junior stylist team. Allowing them to gain valuable experience and allowing us to offer our guests a lower cost blowdry at £14.95. This service has been extremely popular and unfortunately, we have struggled to fulfil this service for our regular loyal guests. So, in the future this service will only be available to guests that have a 6 to 9 week cut and blowdry service with us. Blowdrys will be still available to all with our senior team stylists at their normal prices.
MAVERICKS SILENT HAIRCUT We are fully aware that some guest want to come into salon and spend their time with us peacefully, or perhaps they need to work. To Ensure that this happens, please when booking ask for a silent haircut, when will carry out and full consultation at the start and at the end, the rest of the time is yours.
SIM SENSITIVE
You may have noticed a new brand coming into the salon recently, the brand is called SIM, the brand comes from Finland. They design and manufacture their own products in their own factory. We have know about SIM for some time now, and have been using for a while. We felt that this is the right time to introduce a new brand that has a different concept and price pionting. The SIM brands are very affordable.
The brand has 4 products brands;
DS– Full haircare and styling range with no perfume for all hair types.
Forme essential– Full haircare and styling range with natural perfume for guest with wavy/curly hair.

MAVERICKS FASHION THOUGHTS – THE BOB
Continues to be the hottest haircut of the season- Just look to the oscars for the best bob trends and haircut inspiration.
Whether you like to wear it short or are looking for the happy medium with a lob, the bob will remain the go-to for al face shapes and hair textures. Adding layers or fun hair accessories is an easy way to elevate any look.
SWINGING BOB
Bobs transcend any season thanks to their versatility and will continue to be Hugh once the weather cools. It’s a great opportunity to cut off summer dead ends and have a fresh, chic style for turtleneck weather. Bobs are versatile and there is truly a style for all hair textures. For a bob with lots of swinging movement, try a deep side swept parting on shorter bobs to give some body.
FACE-FRAMING FRINGE
If you’ve been wanting to try bags for a while, this Autumn is the perfect time to do so. Why not go all out with a face framing fringe, that can be worn in so many ways, from short blunt sides or wispy layers, to a grown out look. Try styling with loose waves, and add some smoothing cream to give shine to finish off the look. Bangs are having a moment and will continue to trend as the weather cools.
SHAGGY LONG LAYERS
Layers are an easy way to elevate and update a look at very length and as far as trends go the shaggy layered look is there to stay this autumn. This haircut balances nostalgia with modern elegance, offering a versatile and timeless choice. Long hair has always been a staple but does need to be healthy and well-maintained. Book regular haircuts with your stylist to ensure the health and longevity of your hair. Also, invest in a good treatment mask and use it every week, or try some intensive salon based treatments.
COLOUR
If changing your hair colour when summer ends is too much of a commitment, then we’ve got some good news for you. It’s the subtle changes that are the best, you don’t need to go darker just change theq tone, by adding some caramel or brunette tones you can enhance your colour and update your shade as you go into the autumn months.
This autumn 2024 hair trends call for the classic cuts and styles that we’ve already come to know and love. So

PERFUME, WHATS GOING ON?
A lot of guests have asked us for more information concerning Mavericks going towards a perfume free environment for the both the team and guests. So with that in mind I have taken information from the internet, to try to explain our decision to moved to less perfume. I hope you find this interesting.
reading the long list of ingredients on the back of your favourite hair products may have you questioning ; what is actually in my hair care products? Unfortunately, certain oils, parabens, and the most common synthetic fragrances are often hidden behind fancy names that can be hard to detect.
Fact is, more than 50 percent of all Hair and skin-care products contain fragrances with a lack of description for these chemicals. They are typically found in items that we use routinely such as soap, lotion, makeup, serums, perfumes, and face cream. In hair products, fragrance is often included to provide a recognizable scent for brands labelled as phthalates and tend to be hidden in hairspray, shampoos, and conditioners. Most cosmetics with fragrance are considered safe to use; however, according to the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) , health concerns that can potentially stem from the 3,000 ingredients used in products that contain fragrance include allergies and toxicity, particularly for people withsensitive skin.
We found that it can take over a 100 different chemicals to make a fragrance, Then companies often hide these chemicals under the word perfume or fragrance in their ingredient listing, which they are allowed to do, to stop competitors from
copying they fragrance ! We have no idea what they are using ?
Because of those underlying concerns, using fragrance-free products can prevent redness, rashes, or any sort of skin reaction. Still, there’s a grey area between the terms “fragrance-free” and “unscented” in beauty products, and the distinction between the two isn’t always so clear-cut on an ingredients label.
Why Fragrance-Free?
Fragrance-free products are a necessity for people with a fragrance sensitivity. Even if you do not have a sensitivity, choosing fragrance-free products can help those with sensitivities limit their exposure. Over 50% of the general population prefer workplaces, healthcare facilities, hotels, and airplanes to be fragrance-free.
Fragrance-free products offer the same functionality as fragranced products but without the potential health and environmental concerns. Emissions from fragranced products can negatively impact outdoor and indoor air quality and human health for at-risk populations.
One out of three people in the United States experiences respiratory difficulties and migraines after exposure to fragranced products. Fragrances are also one of the most common causes of contact dermatitis.
One study looked at 174 best-selling moisturizers sold on Amazon. Researchers found that 45% of products labelled”fragrance-free” contained fragrance.
Interestingly, no law requires companies to disclose individual ingredients that make up a fragrance.
