Finding myself in a new country, one of my biggest concerns is my lack of a trusted hair dresser. About a year ago I found myself in the same predicament when Warren from Carlton disappeared without a trace. In my humble opinion South Africa is pretty much devoid of well trained hair stylists and I endured many bad hair days until I payed Jonny Diamonds a visit. A girl I worked with actually tried to set us up which is the reason I found myself in his salon one Saturday. It is tucked away in High Constantia underneath Greens so most people don't even know it's there but it is worth a visit just for the interior - 50's pin-up girl wall murals, black and white floor tiles, gold flying ducks, dressing room lighted mirrors, retro everything and then you meet Jonny himself...Let's just say he is one of a kind. I trusted him immediately because he has this way of putting every client at ease and for a girl with OCD this is much appreciated. I love the Brits dry sense of humour and the man is hilarious! He has the most amazing stories that you forget you are even there for a haircut. And he serves vino not tea, I was in love! I miss him already...Give him a try y'all, you won't regret it.

P.S. Just remembered he is selling the new limited edition colour collection GHDs and if you take in any old pair of hair straighteners you get a discount. Do it! I NEED the purple one.
