It’s Time to Share the Love…

​At Foil Me, appreciation is more than just a buzzword; in fact, it’s one of our core values that underpins everything we do. We LOVE to show appreciation for our artists on social media - so we thought, why not extend the love here, too?

This week, we're spotlighting the fabulous Olivia Brown, the creative genius behind Salon at 22 in Coorparoo, Brisbane. Her Instagram feed (@salonat22) is a treasure trove of hair transformations - from sun-kissed balayage to sleek, low-maintenance styles - that have us double-tapping in admiration. As a Blonde Specialist and Low Maintenance Expert, Olivia crafts effortlessly chic looks that leave her guests feeling like the best version of themselves.​

But Olivia's magic isn't just in her technical prowess. Her guests don't just walk out with fabulous hair; they leave feeling empowered and confident, thanks to her wealth of knowledge and genuine passion for her craft.​

So, why are we taking a moment to celebrate artists like Olivia? Well, in this whirlwind life, it’s easy to overlook the little things - and spreading love and positivity is free - so when we take time to stop and really appreciate what we have, boy does it feel good!

Spreading the Good Vibes

In the spirit of appreciation, here are some fun and easy ways to uplift your guests and colleagues:

• Words of affirmation: Slip a heartfelt, handwritten note to a guest after their appointment or leave an encouraging message for a coworker. It's like passing notes in class, but way more professional.​
• Surprise perks: Offer a complimentary treatment or styling session to loyal guests. Who doesn't love a good freebie?​
• Social Media shoutouts: Showcase your guests' transformations or applaud a coworker’s exceptional work on your platforms. Sharing is caring, after all.​
• Remember the little things: Remember your guest's favourite beverage, your colleague's go-to snack, or that big life event they mentioned. These little details show you're not just listening—you're tuned in.​
• Team Toasts: Celebrate milestones, big or small. Recognising achievements fosters a supportive and motivated environment—and who doesn't love a good party?​

A sprinkle of kindness not only brightens someone else's day, but it also adds a little sparkle to yours. In the hairdressing world, those small gestures - a genuine compliment, remembering a guest's favourite drink, or sharing a hearty laugh - can make all the difference. So, when the daily grind feels more like a bad hair day, pause and appreciate the good stuff - and if you can, share the love with those around you!
