Trends by Nicky Clarke
 The new hair fashion has been inspired by stars like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly. For example a noble hair colour with a special gleam and a precise cut, that can be styled differently and that suits your personality. A first class look with an understatement.
Looks that can be varied and smooth haircuts are Clarke's top trends. The new hair looks are not only noble, but also variable in shape and form: One haircut - two looks - it has to be done fast as many customers do not have much time for time-consuming stylings.
