My passion for hairdressing started when I was a child. One of my mother’s friends was a
hairdresser, and whenever my mom went to get her hair coloured, she would bring my sister
and me along. I was fascinated, watching her work and wondering how she did it all. I dreamed
of becoming a hairdresser like her, and eventually, that dream came true. I started with wedding
updos and gradually developed more skills in the field. Even now, the smell of coffee and
ammonia takes me back to the cosy atmosphere of that home salon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf Your work covers both hair colouring and bridal styling. How do you balance creativity and precision when working with clients?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Knowledge is the driving force behind my success. It equips me to confidently present my vision
to clients and guide them through the process. I believe clear communication is paramount, so I
take the time to explain my ideas in a way that helps clients feel comfortable and confident,
trusting me to bring their vision to life. My passion for hairdressing is evident in everything I do,
and my clients can feel that energy. They see that I\u2019m not just doing a job but deeply instilled in
making their experience special. This connection builds trust, allowing them to embrace my
ideas and enjoy the transformation process fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf You\u2019ve mastered various cutting and colouring techniques, such as the Panel and fusion methods. How do you decide which techniques to use for each client?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
its condition, and discuss the desired outcome. From there, I create a plan that often spans
several visits to achieve our shared goal. Based on this, I choose the best technique to use. The
consultation is the most important part of the entire process, not just for the first appointment,
but for the ones that follow as well. Sometimes clients aren\u2019t sure how to explain what they want
or how they\u2019ll feel about a certain style. My job is to guide them through it step by step,
explaining my approach and offering suggestions that balance their vision with what truly suits
them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf Hair colouring has evolved so much over the years. What are some of the most exciting advancements in this industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I completely agree that the advancements in hair colouring are remarkable. While companies
are constantly competing with innovative products, for me, the real progress lies in creativity.
What excites me most is the freedom to take risks and create custom, one-of-a-kind colour
blends that make each client feel truly special. Mixing colours is something I\u2019m passionate
about\u2014it\u2019s almost like entering a creative trance. The combinations just come to me naturally,
and sometimes, five minutes later, I can\u2019t even recall the exact mix because it\u2019s such an
instinctive process. It\u2019s all about feeling the colours and trusting that instinct to craft something
beautiful and unique every time. That\u2019s what makes this work so rewarding, like creating
something completely tailored to each client and seeing them light up with joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf What role does technology play in your daily work as a hairstylist, especially in training and staying updated with the latest trends?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Advancements in technology have allowed me to achieve even better results in my work, which
means I can offer so much more to my clients. The tools, styling products, and cosmetics I use
ensure that every chemical treatment is safe and leaves the hair looking beautiful and healthy.
Of course, this requires constant learning and staying up to date with new techniques, but I
enjoy that process. I also love educating my clients because healthy hair is so paramount to me.
It not only makes my job easier, but it also ensures they leave the salon feeling their best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf As a trainer for the Nature Eva brand treatments, how do you tailor your teaching approach to ensure other hairdressers are gaining valuable, hands-on
experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, I teach how to perform treatments properly and safely, covering everything from
assessing hair condition to paying attention to key details and managing the process. But more
importantly, I focus on teaching how to connect with clients. It’s about learning how to talk and,
most crucially, how to listen. In conversations, even casual ones, there are often valuable
insights that help us hairstylists understand exactly what the client expects, even when it’s not
obvious after the initial consultation. By picking up on these cues, we can create the perfect
colour or provide the best care tailored to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s the combination of deep knowledge, mastery of a wide range of techniques, and hands-on
experience that enables me to guide my clients realistically. I can explain what\u2019s achievable
based on the condition of their hair and what they\u2019re starting with. As hairdressers, we\u2019re a bit
like magicians, but we also have to be practical. Sometimes, what a client wants just isn\u2019t
possible for various reasons, and it\u2019s important to communicate that in a way they can
understand. The key is offering them an alternative that will make them just as happy, if not
more. When you love what you do and approach it with passion, you can accomplish incredible
things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf What\u2019s your favourite project or challenge to work on?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every new project excites me because it’s always something fresh and diverse, and an
opportunity to learn something new. However, what I really love are avant-garde projects, where
I can fully showcase my creativity and skills that don\u2019t always get used in everyday salon work.
It\u2019s in these bold, artistic settings that I can truly push boundaries. I dream of being part of larger
projects, like fashion magazine shoots or runway shows for top designers, those would be my
ultimate favourites. There’s so much ahead, and I\u2019m looking forward to the chance to dive into
those kinds of exciting challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25cf Finally, what is the most rewarding part of your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
What truly makes my work rewarding is seeing my clients’ smiles when they look in the mirror
and love the final result. For many women, how we look is deeply connected to how we feel,
and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. It’s amazing that we want to take care of
ourselves and feel our best. But sometimes, a new colour is more than just changing the hair,
it\u2019s about changing something inside. I\u2019ve had clients look at themselves with tears in their eyes,
telling me that for the first time in 40 years, they actually like what they see. Moments like that
are the biggest reward and remind me why I love what I do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
