He’s the man most known for tending to the tresses of celebrities like Kendall and Kylie Jenner (as well of all of the Kardashians).
He even worked with Paris Hilton for years! So when we got the opportunity to sit down with him in Sydney for the launch of Lady Jayne’s new hairbrush range, we took it. And here’s all you need to know- including Colombini’s top tips.
He says we should be using more than one shampoo…
“Circle out your shampoo and conditioner. Have at least three that you like and use them irregularly. Switch them around, because [when] your hair starts getting acclimatised to something, it gets limp, oily, or dries out. People think because their hair gets limp it must be the styling products, but [often] it’s not. It all starts in the shower.”
Ride or dies every girl should have in her kit…
“Dry shampoo. Find your favourite one and get a travel size, too. I love Unite and R+Co. And always have a good lip gloss in your bag.”
You’ve been warned: Stop over washing
“My biggest tip is to not shampoo every day. You preserve so much of your hair. You can condition every day [though]. Even if you go to the gym, [don’t be afraid to just] wet hair and condition mid-shafts to ends and then rinse it. And let it air dry. If you have to blow dry, blow dry up to 50% of the water out and find a good product you can leave in your hair. Ouai has a good finishing cream that I love. Then just do a pony tail at the end of the week.”
He reveals the longest amount of time spent on a celebrity’s hair…
“I think it’s Kylie with all of the wigs. It takes a lot of time. You buy a base and build off it- I cut and colour it. You don’t ever walk over to a wig at a wig store and go ‘this is exactly the one’- there is so much that goes into it. Everyone has a different hairline, so you are creating that too. [Lots of them are lace front] so you take tweezers and tweeze hair out of the lace front wigs to create [the right] hair line. For this look on Betty, I coloured the wig and altogether there was about half a kilogram of extra hair.”
