Summary
I’m a passionate and creative hairdresser, driven by the need to give my clients the best. Long hair is truly where my passion lives, having trained in foiling and balayage techniques as well as a very strong understanding of colour theory to deliver stunning results. I love a crazy vivid, but find just as much joy in a chocolatey brown or a cowboy copper. I have been very keen to get into hair extensions and have completed training in tapes as part of my apprenticeship, and though I haven’t had a lot of opportunity to perfect my skills, I am extremely eager to learn.
