Prior to starting my own mobile hairdressing business my career began at James & Peter in the City of Manchester in the early 70’s. I gained a wealth of experience as an Apprentice, including one day a week spent at the college to obtain my qualifications.
By the age of twenty I found myself managing one of the Company’s salons in the City. During this period I gained a strong pedigree with courses in London at Vidal Sassoon Academy and Michael John. I worked alongside hairdressers like John Frieda, Trevor Sorbie and Joshua Galvin. I spent six months at the Sassoon Academy and had the good fortune of being involved in magazine and fashion photo shoots as well as hair fashion shows.
In late 1977, with a partner, I opened our first salon on the outskirts of Manchester, applying the standards gained from my years with top English hairdressers of the 1970’s. By the start of the 80’s we had expanded to open a further salon in my home town of Stockport.
By the mid 80’s I decided to make a career adjustment and left the salon environment. I travelled the U.K. and abroad teaching hairdressing skills. To broaden my knowledge of the world I spent time in Spain, France and Thailand where I found myself cutting hair on the beach, in market places and at people’s villas.
With a pair of scissors and a comb I could feed myself wherever I was in the world!
Having lived in Spain for two years I decided to return to the U.K. in 2009 to start my own freelance hairdressing in people’s homes and hotel venues. I have a cross section of clients ranging from age 9 to my oldest client who is 99! My aim is to offer a highly professional salon service but with the benefit of it being on a one to one basis in my clients’ own environment.
Using a freelance hairdresser has some undisputed benefits. To start with you’ll not have to search for a parking spot or risk getting held up in traffic!
But the main advantage is that you’ll get the time and undivided attention of your hairdresser to discuss your requirements during a personal consultation in the private setting of your own home. As a freelance consultant I allow sufficient time to discuss what you want so that you feel happy and completely satisfied with the results – my reviews support this message.
