Sandra Watson Colour, and creative

master colourist at Josh Wood Colour

Hair History My hair has always been very dark

brown. The presumption often with dark hair is that

it is black, a very common mistake. My first job as

an assistant at Vidal Sassoon opened my world to

colour – I had peacock blue hair for years.

My colour now My colourists are David Adams

and Jason Hogan at Josh Wood Colour – I am very

lucky to work with the best colourists in the world.

They do balayage, creating lightness at the ends of

the hair. The texture of my hair is spiral corkscrews

so by only colouring the ends I keep the condition

amazing. I gloss every time I have colour either with

l’oréal diarichesse, £55, or redken shades EQ, from £20.

Product Picks I use Josh wood colour Everything

Mask, £15, once a week to maintain gloss. As a colour

expert I see many clients overwashing hair. The more you

wash, the faster the colour fades, and the drier the hair. I’ve

been co-washing for 30 years – wash once a week then in-

between use conditioner to cleanse the hair. I like Palmer’s

coconut oil Formula co-wash cleansing conditioner, £4.
