Like a therapist hairdressers are in a position of trust. We are transforming not just how a person looks but how they feel.

I first learned how to do hair from drag queens. I learned eyelashes are the key to life, because they make everyone look fabulous.

Sometimes, in order to follow our moral compass and/or our heart, we have to make unpopular decisions or stand up for what we believe in. It can be difficult and even frightening to go against the grain, whether it's a personal disagreement with a friend, partner, or family member or a professional decision that affects coworkers and colleagues.

Creativity runs across many categories in life, from the arts-and-crafts project a mum or dad does with their kids, to the bestselling author's manuscript, to the designs of the hairdresser, to the creations of the computer programming genius.

I define success by personal growth; if you don’t continue to grow, you can’t continue to succeed.

During a color consultation, I like to reference food as a visual. Hot fudge and orange marmalade paint a clearer picture and helps prevent end results that leave you feeling unsatisfied.
