What first got you into hairdressing?
Creativity has always been in my DNA! As a child, I made outfits from leftover curtains, bedsheets and lace. I even gave my sister’s Barbie dolls bold bob cuts because mine were too precious to mess with!
Tell us a little about your hairdressing journey.
Hairdressing is my absolute calling. I’ve spent 24 years in the industry, with 12 in beautiful France and 12 here in Australia. In France, I trained twice to try for a spot at the “Hairdressing Olympics”. That experience sparked my love of precision and detail.
What’s your favourite look to create?
I love a big transformation while keeping hair looking natural and healthy. Blondes are my ultimate love, but I still get so excited creating rich brunettes and fiery coppers!
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
Fun, vibrant energy and plenty of care! We’ll talk through your hair goals, its health and the right routine for you at home. I put my heart into making you feel special and want you to leave feeling like a superstar.
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
Spending time with my daughter and our little dog, creating magic in the kitchen or exploring outdoors. I also love the energy of kizomba, bachata and salsa. You’ll often find me on the dance floor!
What’s your favourite holiday destination, or somewhere you dream of visiting?
Anywhere I don’t have to cook a single meal or wash a dish! As a busy single mum, that kind of pampering is my idea of paradise.
What’s one thing people might be surprised to learn about you?
I started performing with a marching band routine team at just five. My whole family performed together for 11 years using pom-poms, flags and prop rifles. It was amazing!
Which song gets you singing along in the salon?
Anything with a good beat! When the music gets me singing and dancing, I’m in my absolute happy zone.

What first got you into hairdressing?
My dream was to work in film and TV makeup. A makeup artist my dad knew recommended learning hairdressing first, and I already loved doing people’s hair! That advice started a career spanning 43 years, combining salon work with film and TV.
Tell us a little about your hairdressing journey.
I trained in South East London before travelling across America doing hair shows and teaching British techniques in Washington, DC, aged 20. My career has taken me to salons in West London, LA and Germany, alongside hair, wig and makeup work on productions including the first Harry Potter film, Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, Cats and Buddy Holly.
What’s your favourite look to create?
I love soft, natural looks that enhance your colouring and complement your skin tone. I also enjoy cutting all hair types, creating shapes that suit each person’s face.
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
A listening ear and plenty of honest, thoughtful advice. I’ll talk through what you want and suggest options that suit your hair type and lifestyle, with practical tips to help you understand your hair better.
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
Supporting women through a group I’ve set up and helping women experiencing hair loss with wigs. I also love walks, summer beach days and escaping to the movies to switch off.
What’s your favourite holiday destination?
The Maldives. Beautiful ocean, peace and quiet, and time to completely relax. Sea and sand are heaven to me!
What might people be surprised to learn about you?
I’ve never married or had children, and I moved to Australia on my own at 41!
What’s a small thing that makes your day better?
A Guinness by the fire after a busy day, winding down and catching up on messages.
What could you happily talk about for hours?
Life’s journey and its different stages, especially navigating midlife and menopause with the women in my chair!

What first got you into hairdressing?
My grandfather and aunt were both hairdressers. When I was little, my grandfather would take me along to his clients as his little assistant, handing him tools and sweeping up hair. I loved seeing how a haircut could make someone feel more confident.
Tell us a little about your hairdressing journey.
I’ve been in the industry for around 12 years, including my training. I started hairdressing school in Italy at 16, followed by a six-year apprenticeship. For five of those years, I worked alongside just one other hairdresser, learning every type of service. She helped me develop my own style and made me love hairdressing even more!
What’s your favourite look to create?
I enjoy pretty much everything, but I’m especially passionate about styling and hair-ups, from classic looks to more extravagant creations. I also love bold, eccentric colours!
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
A LOT of questions! I like to understand exactly what you’re hoping for, talk through the possibilities and get the little details right. You can also expect plenty of laughs along the way!
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
My perfect day off has absolutely no plans or schedules! I love painting, giving old furniture a new lease on life and practising tattooing, which has always been another passion of mine.
What’s your favourite holiday destination, or somewhere you dream of visiting?
I haven’t had many opportunities to travel yet, so I’d love to explore as many places as possible. As long as it’s somewhere warm, I’m happy!
What’s your go-to drink?
COFFEE, PLEASE! ☕
What’s one thing people might be surprised to learn about you?
I think I might be the only Italian who doesn’t like stretchy, melted mozzarella on pizza!

What first got you into hairdressing?
A lot of my family are hairdressers, so I grew up around it! When I was younger, I’d sweep the floors at my cousin’s salon and chat with everyone. Seeing how much fun she had inspired me to give it a go.
Tell us a little about your hairdressing journey.
I’ve completed my Certificate II and am now a first-year apprentice. Including my course, I’ve been learning for about two years, which has gone so fast! At the moment, I’m really enjoying learning to cut.
What’s your favourite look to create?
Definitely bouncy blow-dries! I love getting into the rhythm and seeing the finished look.
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
A good head massage! I’ve been getting better with practice, and hearing clients say how much I’ve improved honestly makes my day.
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
Usually at the netball courts! I play Monday nights and Saturdays after work. It helps me get ready for the week and wind down at the end of it.
What’s your favourite holiday destination, or somewhere you dream of visiting?
I love going to Bali, but I’d really love to visit Italy! I want to see the country, learn more about where my family comes from and meet relatives I haven’t met yet.
What’s one thing people might be surprised to learn about you?
With all the injuries I’ve had, I’ve somehow only broken two bones!
Which song gets you singing along in the salon?
It really depends on the day. Sometimes I’m singing along to everything, and sometimes nothing at all!

My mum’s hairdresser inspired me, and I was always experimenting with hair as a kid. That included cutting my own hair badly and doing hair for the cheerleading squad!
Tell us a little about your hairdressing journey.
I started a hairdressing course in Year 10, aged 16, and fell in love with the creative side, especially colour. I began my apprenticeship at 19, and after nine years in hairdressing, I’m still learning something new every day.
What’s your favourite look to create?
Definitely vivids! The brighter and wilder the colour, the better. I’m your girl for a big transformation, and I love seeing how happy it makes my clients.
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
I take my lead from you. I love a good chat about anything and everything, but if you’d prefer some quiet time to unwind, that’s absolutely fine too.
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
Curled up with a good book or out with friends for lunch and shopping. I do love a good Sephora haul!
What’s your dream holiday destination?
Japan for the cherry blossoms and food! I’d also love to explore the UK and Europe. It’s a part of the world I’ve always wanted to see.
What could you happily talk about for hours?
Books, footy and music! I’m a bookworm, a Dockers supporter and equally happy talking metal or pop, especially concerts and festivals.
What’s your most memorable hairstyle you’ve created?
For my first photoshoot as a second-year apprentice, I created a look inspired by Vikings and Game of Thrones. It was a very proud moment!

I’ve always had a creative side, and I loved going to the salon and being in that environment. Hairdressing felt like a natural fit!

I’ve been in the industry for 20 years, working in big, upmarket, fast-paced salons, taking part in Fashion Week and attending hair expos. Along the way, I’ve worked my way up into management.

I love creating lived-in blondes and brunettes. Extensions are another favourite, especially seeing how a transformation can give someone a whole new level of confidence.
What can someone expect from an appointment with you?
I’m a chatterbox and full of energy, but I’m just as happy to let you relax with a silent appointment. You can talk to me about anything! I want you to feel comfortable and listened to, so we’ll always start with a thorough consultation. My aim is for you to leave happier than when you arrived.
When you’re not in the salon, where would we find you?
At the gym, on a coastal walk in the sunshine or catching up with friends. I’m a social butterfly! I love playing padel and having a dance, but you’ll also find me cuddled up on the couch relaxing. There’s no in-between with me!
What’s your favourite holiday destination, or somewhere you dream of visiting?
Everyone knows I’m a travel queen, and more specifically, a Bali queen! I’ve been lucky enough to travel to lots of places around the world, but I do love Bali. My next holiday destination is pending… 👀
What’s your go-to drink?
I’m an extra-spicy margarita girl!
Which song gets you singing along in the salon?
