Started this year! This position gives me the opportunity to combine what my previous position was, as well as seeing the beautiful creations that the girls do right in front of me!
What inspires you about hairdressing?
The confidence that is created for clients! I watch this transformation occur in one session and it’s something that will continuously blow my mind!!
What’s your speciality in hair?
The closest thing I have to specialise in hair is my Indian head massages! I really learnt from the best when I completed my Advance Diploma in Beauty Therapy.
Hidden Talent? (eg. air guitar/skydiving/netball champion)
I used to teach and dance Hula, Salsa and Samba professionally and in competitions! For years growing up that was my side gig. Now I just love the social dance scene. It gets muy caliente!!
Describe your perfect holiday?
Somewhere, where the weather is good and I am coastal! Could be in Bahia, Dominica Republic, Cuba, Southern Italy or France or even the East Coast of New Zealand!!!
What goals do you have for 2021?
To expand my skill set in all areas of my life! Be open to learning and growing, self-development is important!
Also to visit Broome or Tassy. Since travel is limited internationally, why not support locals and i’ve always been interested in going!
