Hair

Hair is not known as womans “crowning glory” without reason. It can be wild it can be controlled it can be classic it can be outrageous but it is always the centrepiece of the overall impression given by a beautiful woman.
I have styled hair for all occassions, advertising, weddings, political events, models…all required different effects. It requires skill, imagination and sometimes bravery but the result can be magnificent.
