Autumn Begins

Autumn 2014 is not only the start of shorter days and longer nights, but more importantly its the start of the 2nd half of the fashion calendar. New hair is a quick and effective way to cheer us all up at a time of the year when we need it most. But unlike the weather you don't need to go dark and bland with your hair, this year we have embraced the pastel colours more than ever before and this autumn/winter should be no different...

Add a bit of colour to your hair with our L'oreal Inoa collection, new for this season is the Inoa Carmilane range if you want to add some intense lasting reds..






Be as creative as you dare with the colouring techniques with examples like the red ombre above, and with L'oreal Inoa giving you the freedom to be creative with our colours by mixing them we can create unique looks with colours that you desire, as some celebrities show off here.





Thanks for reading

Beard Styles: The Balbo

Beards have become a permanent part of men’s style. Just about every man will grow a beard at some point in his life. With that in mind The Mod Cabin will be producing a series of tutorials on different beard styles and how to achieve them.
While some men prefer a full beard, other guys are looking to rock a more minimalist style. For those men the  Balbo is a great option. The Balbo is a moustache/goatee hybrid that is easy to grow and maintain.


The Balbo is a great style for all seasons for those who prefer a minimalist approach to facial hair.

We asked professional beard stylist and 2014 L’Oreal colour trophy finalist Simon Townley about the history of the balbo style and how to best achieve and maintain it.


Professional beard stylist Simon Townley

The Balbo was a massive trend in the UK mainly due to celebrities like David Beckham. Most of this is done with a Wet Shave. Perfect for any man wanting to create the perfect jaw line; draw an imaginary straight line from under the bottom lip outwards to the end of the jaw and shave above the line to shape the face whilst leaving the moustache. The neck should be rounded lifting the head backwards and shaving a straight line from corner to corner.  Its a simple as that. Trim to desired length and style with The Mod Cabin Beard Balm.
