Barbie went to Dalston and got her hair did. A while back the style chameleon was over in London and decided to check out what all the BLEACH London fuss was about. Now she likes it so much it's a regular beauty pitstop for the star.
Barbie was my very first hair idol when I was a kid, and now having the opportunity for her to be our client at BLEACH is incredible, and her designable hair is a genius concept which has also inspired some new creations inside the salon! says Alex Brownsell, Co-Founder of the salon.
Barbie's hair is in good company as BLEACH is a regular haunt for stars like Florence Welch, M.I.A, Pixie Geldof, and Sky Ferreira. The salon, as well as the permanent pop-up in Topshop, Oxford Circus, offers every type of colour from platinum silver and recession roots to dip dye and pastel highlights (plus, many more). If you like these two looks (Were a fan of the bow look) then check out the brand new BLEACH X Barbie tumblr page for more stellar hairstyles - it's genius!
Which brings us on to the new doll. Alex has created 8 Barbie looks, including how she is dressed. By using an online program and your own inkjet printer, Barbie Design Printables, £29.99 (available at Tesco), allows you to print directly onto hair extensions, 16 for you and 6 for your Barbie, with any colours or designs you like, resulting in a completely personalised look!
