TEAM NEWS
NEIL WORKS PARIS FASHION WEEK:

Neil has just returned from Paris Fashion Week having worked into the early hours with some of the top designers on their runway shows. He styled hair for the renowned Stella McCartney, Hussein Chalayan, Yohji Yamamoto, Jeremy Scott and Tao to name a few. Over the last year Neil has also worked with the likes of Alexander McQueen, Issey Miyake, Julien McDonald and Comme des Garcons. “It’s always inspiring working with designers of this calibre and creating hair that compliments and sells their creations. It provides great exposure to style trends that I can take inspiration from and develop at Indigo on my return”.
PROMOTIONS:
Verity has just been promoted to Senior Stylist & Adele to Stylist. Well done both ;-) |
THE LAST WORD: NEIL ON 2009 HAIR TRENDS
The trend for crops and shorter hairstyles will continue although there will be a looser, less structured feeling, working with more texture and movement. Gone are the days of the highly styled finished looks of the straight and flat - lifeless locks are a thing of the past. 2009 will be all about using the natural movement of the hair to create a strong sense of individuality using natural products. More laid back, relaxed looks with plenty of volume and body to achieve a less structural and more youthful, fresh feel. Great hair for me is all about confident, individual style that mirrors you and your personality as opposed to copying specific trends. Sexy hair is healthy hair so invest in good products to ensure you keep your hair in optimal condition to stand out from the crowd.

Press release date September 2007.
The strength of Coventry’s creative talent is shining
through as hair stylist Neil Hopkins is proud to announce
the re-launch of his Warwickshire-based salon Indigo,
following a quarter of a million pound refurbishment.
Indigo reflects the vision of this Coventry-born
and trained styling entrepreneur who now brings the best
elements of over 20 years worth of insight and experience
together. The re-modelled salon brings together all of the
best aspects of hair dressing and shows exactly what the
contemporary client experience can be.
Neil worked closely with Coventry architect Richard Jones
of Malachite Interiors whilst the building work and interior
decoration was completed by Earlsdon-based Blueprint Construction.
The project was completed over an extremely short three week
time scale and was carefully project-managed to ensure that
the salon was only completely closed to customers for one
week of that time.
Visitors to the new Indigo are greeted
by two cool and calm spacious cutting floors. Subtle tones
of grey, beige, cream and white contrast perfectly with polished
dark wood floors, stylish metal work, textured slate and
rough-edged heavy oak counters. Clients can relax in generous
leather sofas while surfing the internet, enjoying complimentary
refreshments or even booking their next appointment on-line.
The overall environment is relaxed, welcoming and highly
professional. The interiors enhance the high quality natural
Aveda products which line the shelves and which set Indigo
apart as a dedicated Aveda salon.
Staff at Indigo also undergo regular training
and education in the latest techniques, product applications
and customer etiquette which ensures the ultimate in hair
care advice, style tips and an important personalised approach
to client care.
Neil Hopkins said:
‘The finished look and feel to the new salon
is above and beyond my expectations. The months of planning,
design and preparation have all paid off far beyond what
I could have imagined. I feel that the client-base which
we have in this area is absolutely perfect for this type
of luxury salon and we look forward to welcoming new clients
who would like to come and experience what we have to offer
at Indigo.’
An official launch party is set for the 12th of October;
this delay is due to Neil’s commitment to runway shows
at London and Paris Fashion weeks.

party where there will be free gifts, special offers and
