I have been fortunate to work as a hairdresser and training manager for several large salons and was also the manager of the salon and spa on board the QE2.

I was also lucky to have worked for Wella UK as a supervisor of Technical Research and Development, which provided a great insight into the way big companies develop their products for the hairdressing industry.

I have owned three of my own salons, the most recent being Dangerfield & Keane on Cold Bath Road in Harrogate, which operated for 15 years until 2023. During this time, I continued to work closely with Wella and presented on stage for them and many other organisations.

I hold a Master Colour Expert award from Wella UK and have been trained by My New Hair, having experience in working with fibre and real hair wigs, hairpieces and Freedom Hair. Although I work with hair extensions, I do not fit them.

I have worked with many clients who are dealing with effects of Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy, Alopecia and general hair loss. And, I have also worked extensively with clients from the Trans community over the years.

My number one driver as a hairdresser is to make people happy with both my work and my service.
