Love Island hair secrets

Like the rest of the country, we’re hooked on this year’s Love Island. From the romance, to the tears and arguments we’re following it all. But did you know there’s a hairdresser among the bunch or that one of the UK’s biggest hair brands equipped the contestants with styling tools? Read on for more…

Instagram: @Grace.WX

25-year-old Grace Wardle entered the villa in a later wave of romantic hopefuls, revealing that she’s a hairdresser. She’s been hairdressing for over 10 years and even owns a Headmasters salon in Crystal Palace. The contestant confessed to even washing Joanna Lumley’s hair once – exciting! We read that Grace hopes her experience of chatting to new people while hairdressing will help her build relationships in the villa. Fingers crossed!
Which reminds us that last year’s Love Island winner Kem Cetinary was also a hairdresser, maybe there’s a pattern here…
We’ve also got the lowdown on ghd Professional sending the contestants their own styling tools. The Islanders received: a white platinum ghd styler, ghd soft curve tong and ghd curve creative curl wand. Here’s hoping we see plenty more chic hairstyles on the show amongst all the makeups and breakups.
