If you get hold of a head of hair on somebody you've never seen before, cut beautiful shapes, cut beautiful architectural angles and she walks out looking so different - I think that's masterful.

I came home after a year and although my profession was only hairdressing, I knew I could change it.

It's okay saying sorry, but when you are drunk you say what you really feel.

To me hair dressing means shape. It's very important that the foundations should be right.

I just consider being one of the luckiest people in the sense that creativity came to me and it flowed.

I got a telegraph from my mother who said that my step-father had had a heart attack, come home and earn a living. So I went back to England and the only thing I knew to earn any cash was through hairdressing.

For me the working of hair is architecture with a human element.
