JAYNE

Meet Jayne.

In the industry for over 30 years, privately educated, she went to Art School, travelled the world and partied hard, found hairdressing and carried the party on. Jayne is multi skilled and highly experienced in colour - She led art teams and trained the up and coming, had work printed in magazines and has presented on stage. Her love of hair means she loves a challenge, so precision, visual or creative, she wants it all. You’ll hear her from any room in the building and she’s the girl that you will always find dancing in the kitchen at parties. She’s loud, she’s proud and one things for sure, you’ll come away smiling. Book in with Jayne, you won’t regret it.

STACEY

Meet Stacey

She's dead nice - sunshine in human form. Stacey comes to us with 17 years experience working in Chester and she loves it! She is the mother of cuteness, that being a three year old called Wilson. When she’s not doing that important job, she’s with us producing beautiful caramel balayages and icy white blondes. Stacey loves to see a client through the whole process and takes real pride in her work. So with her passion for hair, the ability to use an empty wine bottle as a mic (see Christmas party) and that infectious smile, you can sit back and relax, you won’t feel safer in anyone else’s hands.

LIKES: Manners, positive outlooks, children, music, dancing, being kind and mayonnaise

DISLIKES: Spiders, things that don’t work properly football, wasabi and no fake tan.

IDOLS: Lisa Stansfield, Denzel, Will Smith, Gaga and Liam Neeson.

CLAIM TO FAME: She once had a body part photographed for a trashy mag….Not quite what you’re thinking - filthy! - On holiday, she stood on the worlds deadliest fish, almost died and sold the story of how she got the hole in her foot.

JOLENE 

Meet Jolene.

Founder and co - owner of VAIN. 25 years in the industry, hairdressing is in her blood - her aunt, great grandfather and great great grandfather were all in the trade. After working in salons over the years she soon realised that most had become generic, sterile, factory like environments that lacked creativity and inspiration. So over a cocktail one night VAIN was born. Inspired by everything cinematic, this girl LOVES films. Jolene believes hair should be low maintenance. So soft, effortless, feminine hair is what she does. And she does it well.

LIKES - Movies, Margate, Design, TV shows about antiques, Classic cars, Jazz, Vivian Maier and Weegie photographs, Old cinemas, Movie posters and Vinyl records.

IDOLS - Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Hillary Clinton, Cher.

CLAIM TO FAME - She once served Jean Paul Gaultier two cans of Red Stripe in a club.

RACHEL

Meet Rachel.

Probably belongs to the wrong era, her style is a cross between a 1950s burlesque dancer, a 1960s american housewife and a quaker. This girl can colour. She worked for years down in that big city called London and worked for BIG names like John Frieda, Daniel Galvin and Toni and Guy, then came back up north and worked behind the scenes of some little show called This Morning and now we are lucky enough to have her here with us *smug face*. She can pretty much do anything. You want soft natural colour or something that stands out, not a problem. Not one to become complacent she is now turning her hand to styling ( is there anything she cant do you ask? )

LIKES - music - The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, all folk music,  50s Ska. Withnail and I, Anna Karenina, Frida Kahlo and Vivian Maier, loves seeing art from a womans perspective.

DISLIKES - Boy bands
