I AmYou I am a hairdresser and salon owner. I have spent 40+ years of my life in this beautiful industry. Hairdressing has been kind to me. I have had the most rewarding career, met awesome people, travelled the World for work and my family enjoy a blessed lifestyle. All from a passion to cut hair. At 15 years old I was set to go to college with an ambition of becoming a journalist. My Mum got me a job in the salon she had her hair blow dried every week, sweeping hair and making coffee. That is where my passion4hair (apologies for the pun) began. I left school at 16 for an apprenticeship (the old fashion kind). By the age of 20 I was a manager working in a salon group of 6 salons. At 26 I opened my own salon. It was an interesting first year because my salon was busy and ‘appeared’ to be successful but financially it was not the ‘dream’ I had envisaged. My most published article – IS YOUR BUSINESS WORKING FOR YOU? – chronicles that experience.
LEARNING TO BE A BUSINESS PERSON In 1989 I was lucky to chance upon a meeting with a man who was to be influential in my career over the next two decades. Leslie Spears invented a club called 365 Day Hairdressing and I joined looking to learn how to turn my salon into a successful business. From the very first 365 meeting I attended I was mesmerised by the information, the people and the possibilities. I was a good student and I implemented everything I learned. 365 was incredibly successful for me and my business and in 1993 I opened my 2nd salon. By 2010 Feathers Salon Group had become an award-winning chain of 6 salons in north Essex.
Manager of PM The Color and was promoted to Director of Education at Salon Success. It was this series of events that led me into distribution and onto Passion4hair as we know it today. It is easy to see why our values are deep set in education and support for the salons we do business with.
SHARING AND TEACHING Back in my early days of 365 I was struck by the fact that all the 365 lecturers were men. I set myself the goal to be the first female 365 lecturer and in 1995 I joined the team. I discovered that the philosophy ‘to teach is to learn twice over’ Joseph Joubert is indeed a great truth. In 2000 I was invited by Leslie to become the Director of Education for 365 and I became an apprentice once again (not in a literal sense) as I worked alongside Leslie and Keith Chandler at Salon Success.
Passion4hair THE VISION ‘Our vision is to educate and support the independent Salon Owner and Stylist. We are constantly focusing on new solutions that give better results to the hair industry.’
MY JOURNEY INTO DISTRIBUTION In 2002 Paul Mitchell launched PM The Color, I was the only hairdresser on payroll at that time and Leslie asked me to assist in the launch. As a result, I became Brand
