Tell us a bit about yourself?
I am a hairdresser and Makeup artist of 30+ years. I work within fashion and with advertising and love it! I live for traveling and following the sun, whether it’s for work or play.
What three products will you always pack when styling for men’s shoots?
For the face I would suggest using Wahl professional clippers to groom your stubble and follow with a gentle face massage to awaken and nourish the skin using Embryolisse Lait Crème Moisturiser. If golfing or going outside step up with face application of Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPF50.
What do you do to achieve model-ready hair?
To achieve shoot ready hair I use dry Schwarzkopf Osis Grip Hair Mousse into damp hair and then sprinkle in Osis Dust-It powder for added thickness and hold.
What are some emerging men’s beauty trends that you love?
I am loving the relaxed hair styling for summer - longer length hair is definitely back and groomed stubble is a must!
What are 3 easy men’s grooming tips that can elevate a look?
Treat yourself to a monthly Man-i-cure! And remember to always Moisturise and apply sunscreen please gents!
