Hair O.T.T. is a veritable institution in Torrevieja. Run by popular British hairdresser Natasha, Hair O.T.T. has been caring for our hair and beauty needs for a decade and a half. The salon, now located in Los Balcones, celebrated its 15th anniversary at the end of August.
Hair O.T.T. caters for men, women and children’s haircuts and Natasha is expert in dealing with all types of hair. A popular treatment on offer is the Brazilian Blowdry, which is a straightening treatment for curly, wavy or frizzy hair. Natasha explained, “I have sourced an amazing product from a local supplier, so the results are better than ever. It makes curly or wavy hair so sleek and easy to manage. My clients really love the results!” Another popular item among clients are hair extensions. As well as offering Racoon brand extensions from the UK, Natasha has teamed up with top of the range Spanish company Central del Cabell and with a new technique added to her repertoire, clients are delighted with their new look.
Hair O.T.T. stocks Paul Mitchell products and offers a superb range of treatments including complete restyling or a change of colour for a totally new look. Natasha takes a number of factors into account if you are considering a change – not only your face shape, body type and level of skill in doing your own hair, but also the texture and weight of your hair, in order to ensure the style change is right for you and your needs.
The salon has applied all the new safety measures including disposable PPE and all cushions and magazines have been removed – however, if you have been to Hair O.T.T. you’ll agree that there is rarely time to read a magazine! The boutique style salon is like a community meeting point and there is never a shortage of great conversation to keep you entertained. With restrictions now in place on how many clients are allowed in the salon at once (just two) it won’t be as busy as before, but you can still be assured of a warm welcome.
In terms of restrictions, the popular pamper days have had to be reduced in size, but Hair O.T.T. can still cater to three friends (two in the salon, and one in the beauty room) and Natasha is happy to create a pamper package suited to your individual budget. When the situation normalises and more weddings and parties are taking place, Natasha and expert beauty therapist Rima offer a full package for hair, nails, makeup, spray tan for the entire bridal party or group. This can be done in the salon or on location, depending on numbers. Rima’s popular facials can also prepare your skin for a forthcoming event, or become part of your regular skincare routine. Also incredibly popular are Rima’s individual eyelash extensions – she is one of the best in the business. Rima also offers manicures, pedicures, amazing nail art and a whole host of waxing, tinting and beautifying!
Natasha is passionate about training, education and keeping up with the latest techniques and technologies on the market. With that in mind, she has started an apprenticeship for her daughter. She explained “My daughter Poppy was due to start an apprenticeship in the UK but due to Covid that’s now not going to happen. Part of me is glad, because I can now offer her training here, and I’m delighted because I really value the old fashioned way of doing things, ‘family business’ and passing on knowledge to the younger generation.”
So if you’d like to book a hair or beauty appointment at Hair O.T.T. in Los Balcones, simply give the salon a call – you won’t be disappointed.
