Can you tell us a little about your background?

I have been a hairdresser since I was 13, when I started working as a Saturday boy. I worked my way up and gained industry qualifications. I produced my own artisan hair show aged 16. When I was 22 I opened The Boutique, a salon focused on expert hairdressing. In the eight years that followed, my career has taken me from salons to fashion weeks. I have been working at the fashion weeks for three or four years. I started in London, but that’s grown and evolved, and now I work at all four cities doing women’s, men’s and couture hair styling for different designers every season. I’ve worked for designers from Burberry through to Vivienne Westwood and Balenciaga.
