"I still enjoy hairdressing as much as I did in 1993, when I started as a Saturday boy. The relationships you build with both colleagues and clients along with the creativity and ability to make people feel like a million dollars is what sets hairdressing as a career apart from many others, and i love this! In my spare time I enjoy varied activities including Pilates, socialising, films and travelling and seeing new places".

I have worked at Gorgeous now for over 13 years and I am thoroughly enjoying my time here. I have qualified in Level 2 hairdressing and now run a busy column within the salon. I became a hairdresser because I was inspired by the different styles that can be created and taken from the fashion world, and enjoy taking part in photoshoots.

I have been working at Gorgeous for over 5 years and I love being a part of an amazing and vibrant team. After completing my NVQ level 2 with a distinction I am excited to have now also completed my NVQ Level 3. I enjoy running a busy column and growing my confidence as a stylist. Since leaving school and beginning an apprenticeship I have fallen in love with hairdressing and cannot imagine doing anything else. I am passionate about what I do and strive to being the best I can be. My favourite part of hairdressing is seeing the happiness on guests faces once I have done their hair; hair can change a person’s whole mood and I take great pleasure in being able to create that feeling for guest’s multiple times a day!

Salon Support
Carol
I started at gorgeous in August 2018 & my role is salon support. My day is spent helping clients to feel comfortable and relaxed in a friendly atmosphere. I will also be heard laughing and joking with my team members, particularly Adam :)
Claire
I joined the team in September 2021 as their receptionist. I love working with the team, even if it only for a few hours each week, such a fun atmosphere to work in. Meeting all the clients and getting to know them all individually is a highlight of my day.
Emilia
I joined Gorgeous in October 2023 as salon support. My role involves keeping the salon organised and ensuring both my coworkers and the clients have what they need. You'll often find me washing hair and tidying up, all whilst maintaining a welcoming environment.
