Free hair colour
Looking for someone keen to try out a new colour we will be getting in at Bliss.
📅 Thursday 15th April the educator is coming in to give the team some insalon training on this new shade between 3pm-5.30pm
We need one model, with naturally medium/ light hair, wanting something similar to the photos below. Hair maybe coloured lighter already, but needs to be in good condition with no build up or bands of colour.
Attached are some photos of what the range can offer. This range is known for being soft and beautiful.
There will be no charge for this colour service. We would love to use the images from training on social media to promote the new colour insalon.
We can only select one model.
If your interested email us (blisshairsalonnz@gmail.com) a photo of your current hair colour.

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?
There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.
Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Six tips for improving security around your home
1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.
2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.
3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.
4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.
5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.
6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property
Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
