About Michelle
Behind the Chair
Michelle: Hairdresser/ Artist
Hi, I'm Michelle, and I genuinely love what I do.
With over 30 years in the hair industry and around seven years specialising in lashes and brows, I've built a career on one simple belief: that every client deserves results that work for their real life. Not just a treatment that looks good on the day, but hair and beauty that feels manageable, healthy, and authentically them.
I love the creative side of this work, and I love the transformation. that moment when a client sees themselves in the mirror and something just clicks. But what I treasure most, honestly, is the relationships. The trust that builds over years of appointments, the conversations, watching clients grow in confidence. That's what keeps me as passionate about this work today as I was at the beginning.

What makes this studio different
I work with people who are thoughtful about their appearance, not chasing trends, but wanting to look polished, healthy, and like the best version of themselves. Many of my clients are navigating changes in their hair and skin as life evolves, and they want someone who actually understands that, not just a stylist who applies the same approach to everyone.
Here, every service starts with a conversation. I take the time to understand your hair, your lifestyle, and what you're hoping to achieve, because the right result looks different for every person.
If you're looking for a place where you'll be truly looked after, I'd love to meet you.
