THE
CARTEL
Owners Giorgia Floyd and Brittany Glover have created their brandnew boutique hair salon located on Collaroy’s beaches, dedicated to creating effortless lived-in hair. Inspired from the natural elements in the Mediterranean, guests instantly feel at ease during their visits.
GIORGIA
Colour Director/Co-Founder started her career in Hairdressing at the age of 15, working at a well-known salon on the Northern Beaches as an assistant. Having grown up in the area, she feels at home in Collaroy. She is wise beyond her years with extensive knowledge and a calming nature getting great satisfaction at the final reveal of the colour to her guests. “That instant happiness they get and mood elevation is like nothing else,” she says. “I absolutely love seeing everyone I look after walk out with a smile on their face”
BRITTANY
Colour Director/Co-Founder started her career in 2014 in Wollongong, initially not wanting to be a hairdresser but after being guided by a family member she soon discovered that whilst she didn’t mind the trade, she was bloody good at it. Britt relocated to Parkes for a year, soon ending up on the Northern Beaches. She has been building her career here and developing a loyal client base over the last few years that followed her wherever she went. Her fave thing to do is help her clients create their hair goals from colour to cut and she loves the process from start to finish!
How did you come to be in business together?
We both met working together at a salon near Manly (NSW) a few years ago, during that time we found ourselves to have very similar morals and values in both work and personal life.. we are both dedicated to our education and personal growth and we discovered in each other that we had a passion for creating a positive atmosphere and being able to make our clients feel we genuinely care; our clients are more like friends. We have always prided ourselves on making our clients feel unique. So, we talked, and we decided to bite the bullet and go out on our own. It all happened so fast, we had a vision but honestly had no idea how we were going to pull it together, we literally started from nothing, two 20 something year old blonde girls who decided to give salon business a crack. We’re so proud of how far we have come over the last 12 months.
What made you open the salon?
To be honest, it was always a dream to have our own business and be in control of our own success.
