WHAT IS YOUR JOB ROLE AT CENTRAL STUDIO AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING HERE?

I am a Style Director and I’ve been with Central Studio for the last two and a half years, although it feels much longer!

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HAIRDRESSING IN TOTAL?

I’ve been hairdressing for about 27 years now and I still love it!

HOW DID YOU GET INTO HAIRDRESSING?

I’d wanted to be a hairdresser since I was a child and was lucky enough to get an apprenticeship straight out of school that let me dive straight into the working world and work my way up.

DESCRIBE A NORMAL DAY AT CENTRAL STUDIO.

Buzzing!

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT WORKING FOR CENTRAL STUDIO?

I love that we’re such a centrally located – (as our name might suggest) – hair salon in Bristol, we’re always busy and that creates a fantastic, friendly atmosphere for both the clients and the staff.

IF YOU COULD IMPART ONE PIECE OF HAIRDRESSING WISDOM WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS, WHAT WOULD IT BE? 

Invest in high-quality products and styling tools; you shouldn’t skimp on your hair!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE HAIR STYLE AND COLOUR AT THE MOMENT?

I’m loving short hairstyles with shimmering silver tones.

DO YOU HAVE A STYLE ICON WHEN IT COMES TO HAIR, AND IF SO WHO?

I love Vivienne Westwood.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE BRAND OF SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER? 

Kerastase, they’ve got such a fantastic range of products to suit all hair types (and they smell lovely too).

WHICH HAIR PRODUCT COULD YOU NOT LIVE WITHOUT?

Kerastase – L’incroyable blowdry, I LOVE it.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD?

My favourite food is definitely an Indian takeaway!

WHAT ELSE DO YOU GET UP TO WHILE YOU’RE NOT AT WORK? ANY HOBBIES, SPORTS, ETC?

I’ve got a four-year-old daughter who I love to spend time with, but when I get a spare bit of ‘me’ time, a shopping trip and a glass of Prosecco is my go-to therapy.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE TV SHOWS?

Made in Chelsea.
