I started my hairdressing journey as a mature student at 44. Meeting Lee Stafford and participating in the annual hair show was exhilarating, though it pushed my boundaries. Such experiences empowered me to open my own salon. Now, I intend to mentor apprentices, guiding them to become accomplished hair professionals.
