Windle & Moodie | Three Decades of Hair Excellence
21st August 2019
It’s not hard to see why the salon boasts such a long-standing success—this duo have styled for the likes of Vogue, Elle and Hugo Boss to name a few, and their loyal celebrity regulars include names like Cara Delevingne. The style of the salon has never dated and even with it’s sleek modern industrial interior has an incredibly friendly and welcoming atmosphere which washes over you as soon as you walk in. I was seen almost immediately by my colourist who seemed to know exactly what I wanted without me even having to explain and I was left with a strong sense of reassurance as I waited for her to mix up my colour. After a relaxing 20 minutes underneath the heat lamp I was taken downstairs to a room which resembled a spa more than a hair salon. The lighting was dim and my hair was washed and head massaged expertly as I relaxed in one of the reclining chairs. I believe I may of actually fallen asleep as the hair mask was left in to work it’s magic. Windle & Moodie use all their own in-house products inspired by tea or volcanic ash, after being introduced to the world of French pharmacy hair care.
Review of Inanch London – a hair salon with a touch of class
5th July 2019
Set up by the award-winning hairdresser Inanch Emir and her husband Joe, the small yet stylish salon sits on Great Portland Street in London’s exclusive Fitzrovia, nestled among fine-dining restaurants and private clinics. Inanch has been in the business for over 25 years, starting out as a hairdresser at a nearby high-end salon and soon making a name for herself in the world of extensions. Having her own salon was always her dream, and in 2005 she and Joe took the plunge. With a long list of famed clientele, the salon specialises in extensions, and as Inanch understands the need to keep hair healthy, has introduced various hair loss treatments, designed by the much-celebrated trichologist Philip Kingsley. Not one to be over ambitious with my hair, I had booked in for a colour, cut and blow-dry. As many hairdressers have said over the years, ‘I have very fine hair, but lots of it!’. Therefore it’s important that I do as much as possible to keep my hair in good condition by limiting the amount of heat applied to my hair, as well as using hair products that do not include sulphates or parabens.
Review of New year, new you
15th January 2019
For others this might mean doing more charity work. But let’s start with the basics; no one can help you be truly happy unless you’re truly happy with yourself. And for most, this will be how you feel when you look at yourself in the mirror every day.
Featuring The Sybarite Christmas Gift Guide – La Mer, the crème de...
9th January 2019
In terms of ingredients, the Miracle Broth is a concoction of lime tea and hand-harvested sea kelp from Vancouver. It is the kelp and its ability to self-regenerate that has made this ingredient so potent and resourceful, transforming it as basis for the cream. The defining element for the brands range of products starts from how the creams are produced which is essentially through their fermentation process taking approximately 3-4 months to be able to create and deliver the La Mer cream. Within that time frame, light and sound energy are incorporated delivering a unique chemical reaction.
Featuring The latest trend in ski-tech and wellness
27th November 2018
With the aim to enhance physical performance and encourage mental wellbeing, tech and wellness practices will allow you to get the most out of your upcoming ski trip, both on and off the slopes. New technology is constantly amplifying the performance of skis and the achievements of skiers. More and more tech is being designed to heighten the skier's on-piste comfort and enjoyment.

The device's WiFi feature is easy to use with one-touch internet access in over 130 countries and you can connect up to 5 gadgets at one time.

When it comes to sport and video, GoPro dominates, and their latest GoPro HERO7 camera is no different. With hyper smooth video stabilisation, waterproof housing, voice control and live streaming capabilities, this camera is sure to deliver results.
Fashions Finest SS19 Collection at London Fashion Week
18th September 2018
The Sybarite went along to the SS19 showcase during London Fashion Week to take a look at the up-and-coming talent on show. International designers showcased their latest designs at Fashions Finest SS19 during the weekend at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in Holborn, London. Starting off with Nepalese brand Gauhar which focused on oversized male garments in exotic, colourful textiles, it proved to be an eclectic, inclusive and colourful mix of styles on the runway on Saturday. Next up was Misora Nakamori, showcasing an interesting white, black and metallic futuristic womenswear collection. Nakamori, who is a recent Masters graduate in womenswear at the Royal College of Art in London, describes her style as "combining decent traditional techniques and details with some accents of odd shapes or materials to suggest unique yet futuristic ideas." One of Nakamori's previous collections, Misora, was centred on the notion that "we are recording every day, every moment and every event in life paths, all of which build [our] current selves."

Review of Penhaligon’s Perfumes – a regal treasure trove of scents
24th July 2018
Taking your breath away, captivating and divine, Penhaligon's perfume selections are treasure troves of gorgeous potions in delectable vintage-esque bottles boxed up in their own individual intricate parcels of aesthetic curiosity.Some might call them old-fashioned and it is true, they do boast an apparent antique look and feel about them. But they are beautiful things nonetheless, and beautiful things come with style and grace like their Elisabethan Rose – mildly sweet, feminine and delicate. Though the bottle may be old fashioned, the scent is not. If there is such a thing as a modernized rose scent, then this regal fragrance could be it. It is alluring and not for every women, but for that particular woman who wants a “commanding presence”. On its head notes are, hazelnut leaf, almond oil and cinnamon with heart notes of red lily and rose finishing off with base notes of vetivert, musk and wood. Then there is something even more intriguing and one we much prefer – Empress – a scent of savviness, panache and absolute posh.

The focus: antiaging and hair care. Two diverse sectors but two equally important areas of concern. These are the ones to watch (and invest in) now.
Featuring Capri – The Sybarite’s guide to the Emerald Isle
28th June 2018
Glittering azure waves lap up to the harbour, filled with adorable Italian boats and vintage Riva’s, to the multi-coloured houses of the seaside town. As loud and busy as it is due to day-tripper tourists, honeymooning couples and the very well-travelled, nothing can quite compare to the moment you step off the hydro-foil from Naples to the shores of this fantastic emerald isle. If you’re staying at one of the luxurious five-star hotels on the island, which are highly recommended, you will be greeted by a representative, recognisable by the hotel name printed on their captain’s cap. After taking care of your luggage, they will show you to a shuttle or taxi, (not just any taxi, a vintage open-top limousine nonetheless) to take you to the Island’s main square, the Piazzetta Umberto. From there, you’re left to explore the tiny side streets filled with designer boutiques and al fresco restaurants in the sunshine, walking the pavements lined with vintage tiles.
