The writing of the style book continues… I spend an entire morning moseying around various bookshops wearing my modern day detective outfit (long winter vintage coat and new Chanel Mary-Janes) so that I look like a potential beauty book buyer. I want to find out what titles women are picking up. I adopt a chic look for my detective work in the hope I’ll be less likely to get kicked out for stalking in the beauty section!

Ellen – a top beauty writer - and I sit down for a lengthy discussion among piles of books over a long lunch at the Wolseley. People watching is perfect at this location – we’re on the lookout for women of all ages in the hope of pinning down our target audience. We have so many ideas for the style book!

After five hours of brainstorming Ellen and I make our way to the Browns Halloween party where we end up dancing with a crowd of in-scene girls. Alexa Chung, Pixie Geldoff and fashionistas are spotted dressed in blood-spattered and cobweb-covered outfits.

This month sees the launch of my modern day men’s facial; my lovely friend David Walliams comes in for various treatments and recommends it to Grazia – as a well-known, well-groomed man this recommendation is priceless.

I’ve had a few entertaining afternoons with Susannah Constantine (of Trinny and Susannah fame) where I change her colour and prep her for Lulu’s 60th birthday party. She ends up giving me a style consultation, advising me on how to dress to flatter my figure!

I shot a story with the lovely Luke Worrell who is engaged to Kelly Osbourne. We had such a fun day shooting all the new menswear for Surface magazine and looking at videos of his new puppy that Kelly was sending over to him from LA.

I also flew off to Dubai with Katherine Jenkins and stayed in the hotel du jour, Atlantis Palm, where she performed for Montblanc. We ate dinner in Nobu with a bodyguard watching over us because her necklace was worth a million pounds! I felt compelled to ask the bodyguard what she would do if someone tried to swipe it - she was such a small lady! But after listing her Kung Fu and Martial Arts skills decided not to take the chance…

We’re focusing on colour at Hari’s and I’m preparing to launch new techniques and colour model after model with ‘Cobaine Chic’, ‘Sunkissed Starlet’ and all the others that will make up my new Hair Envy menu at Hari’s.

Elle McPherson’s trainer came in for a style change – I cut his hair and held my stomach in for an hour as we talked through my food menu and nutrition ideas!

The salon’s coverage has been amazing recently and the staff are buzzing …Several new clients have mentioned they’ve heard Hari’s is the place to be!

This month I am loving…
* Really bright dyed hair… red is finally back in town
* The amazing new hairdryers on the market, which cut my drying time to half and makes my kit bag lighter
* Credit crunch fashion ideas forcing us all to be much more creative
* Party hair season…when clients leave with sexy hair ups and fill me in on all the gossip from parties
