How long have you been a hairstylist and why did you choose this line?
I’ve been in this industry since 2005. I enjoy making my clients look good and I feel that a person’s hairstyle speaks a lot about their personality, so I definitely love being the creator of this image for my clients. Of course, being a stylist means I can dress up and be trendy during work too! I like to create trendy hairstyles for my clients and at the same time making sure it suits their face, character and style. Hair is something that stays with you so it’s important to make sure it’s perfect!

What are your stronger skills?
I specialise in hair colouring, especially Balayage, which I’ve done many so far. Besides chemical services, I am good in bob haircuts. Also, clients with long hair who want to try out short hairstyles can count on me. Last but not least, men’s haircut has always been my strongest area.

What do you love most about being a hairdresser?
I enjoy communicating with clients and understanding their needs, concerns and the look they want to achieve. A short conversation definitely goes a long way! I also enjoy creating that unique hairstyle or colour for them.

Tell us something you love about the hair industry.
I love to see the satisfaction on my clients’ faces after they have completed their hair services and this is what I love the most being in this industry. To know that you have put your hard work, skills and effort on your client to make them look good is something I take pride in.
