Summary

Hair has always been my passion. I finally got the opportunity to do my apprenticeship at age 26 after being a Music Teacher for many years.

I started my apprenticeship at a little salon in Queenscliff whilst completing my training at Pivot Point in Melbourne. Near the end of my apprenticeship I moved salons to a salon closer to home in Ocean Grove where I worked for 7 years.

In 2020 COVID hit and in the time I was away from the salon, I decided to go out on my own as a sole trader working from my home salon and a local salon as a freelance hairstylist. I’ve managed to build a loyal clientele and absolutely love what I do. Hair definitely is my passion.
