TROY THOMPSON OF '10 YEARS YOUNGER IN 10 DAYS'
LAUNCHES NEW BOOK
One
of Sydney's most elite hairdressers famed for his magical makeover abilities -
Troy Thompson - has channelled his enviable skills into the creation of his first
book, 'Troy Thompson's Guide To The Younger You' which will be released this spring
2010.
Having recently celebrated 20 years in the hair industry
as the Creative Director of 'Troy Thompson Hairdressing', celebrity status recently
came via the hit Channel 7 TV series "10 Years Younger in 10 Days' in which
he was tasked with transforming some of the country's most challenging heads of
hair into crowning glories.
Thompson's trusted reputation,
professional attitude and untiring commitment towards his craft has earned Thompson
the respect of his peers, and one of the country's most enviable cachets of high
profile clients. He counts some of Australia's leading women from the worlds of
fashion and media amongst his clientele and has worked with hair teams for several
major fashion events including the latest mega Myer seasonal fashion show starring
Jennifer Hawkins.
The launch of his first book aims to share
all his top tips, industry knowledge and style secrets via a simple, easy to digest
soft cover manual. "I wanted to crystallise much of the essence of the TV
show into a guide which likewise covers all the essential areas, from skin &
teeth to hair & fashion and, most importantly, health and well being",
said Thompson.
A5 in scale, this trusty 'hand bag friendly'
tome includes contributions from several of the country's leading health, well
being and style professionals including dental specialist Dr Fadi Yassmin, weight
loss expert, Jenny Craig and cosmetic surgeon, Dr Paul Gerarchi. "I see this
as a fantastic broad brushstroke of the opportunities available to all women (and
men) who want to improve their appearance, no matter to what degree, from easy
to implement fashion guidelines through to comprehensive surgical procedures",
said Thompson. "Significantly, it sets out to break down any delusions that
separate appearance from inner peace and good health, and aims to inform honestly
and openly", he added.
The Guide provides an inclusive
review of detoxes, diets, fasts and cleanses, so the individual can make an informed
decision about what is most suited to them. Expert advice is provided from leading
health specialists, such as Schkinny Maninny aka Catherine Craig, and Image Consultant,
Tina Chin.
Natural methods and chemical procedures for hair
and skin are also debated, with advice from experts on both sides of the fence.
Dr Gerarchi, a trained specialist surgeon committed to cosmetic, reconstructive
and functional surgery of the nose and face, offers a valuable insight into the
practice behind cosmetic surgical procedures, with a detailed guide for those
considering perhaps the "softer options" of 'injectables'. Alternatively,
skin specialist Will Fennell, known as the "Grooming Guy" from his role
on the 'The 10 Years Younger' TV series reveals his own skincare secrets to achieve
a 'youthful glow' via more natural beauty practices and topical skin care products.
A special component of the book is an extraordinary offer
for up to $1700 worth of 'make-over procedures' redeemable with every book purchased
(see conditions) from some of the country's leading specialists, many who appear
in the book.
In addition, a percentage of proceeds from book
sales will be donated to the Olivia Newton- John Cancer and Wellness Centre. This
highly acclaimed centre incorporates cancer services, research, clinical care
and psychological support through wellness programmes, helping people feel better
from the outside in. The Wellness Centre is something close to Thompson, having
lost a friend to cancer himself, "I am passionate about introducing to you
the "10 Years Younger" way of life", he said. "It is worth
remembering that we look good when we feel good and we feel good when we look
good. Vanda wanted to feel better and younger at a time in her life when she didn't",
said Thompson.
"With a portion of the proceeds from the
sales of this book benefitting the ONJCWC, it will bring us one step closer to
making my dream a reality", said Newton-John. "You can help me build
a cancer centre like no other in this country. It will provide new therapies not
available anywhere else in Australia", she said.
