Broughton Street

With over 30 years of experience in the hair industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge, creativity and passion to every appointment. I genuinely enjoy working with all hair types and textures, from fine, delicate hair through to thick, curly and naturally textured hair.

Colour is a particular passion of mine, with natural-looking colour and seamless blending being one of my specialities. I love creating colour that enhances your natural beauty, looks effortless and, most importantly, keeps your hair looking and feeling healthy.

Throughout my career, I’ve also had the privilege of working in various education and training roles, sharing my knowledge and expertise with other professionals. My experience has included working with leading industry names such as ghd, Wella and Nioxin, continually developing my skills and keeping up with the latest techniques and innovations.

For me, beautiful hair starts with healthy hair. Whether you’re looking for a subtle colour refresh, a complete transformation or simply want to get the very best from your natural hair, my aim is always to create hair that is healthy, vibrant, beautiful and uniquely you.

Beautiful, healthy, vibrant hair is my forte.

You really want to collaborate  on your individual evolving ideas.

Having worked in hairdressing for over 20 years, Sylvia knows how best to look after your hair, inside and out. Sylvia looks on hair the way designers look at couture fashion – with many different elements being combined to achieve the right style: the colour, the cut, the texture, the lines, and it all has to come together harmoniously for each individual client.

“I really want my clients to continue looking great, long after they’ve stepped out the salon, I spend time to make sure they know about aftercare….there are little things to do that can make a massive difference to how your hair looks every day.”

“I think the basis of every great hairstyle is a great technical cut – without a great cut, the rest is just window dressing.”

I really enjoy blonding in all forms, from soft, lived-in balayages to bright blonde transformations. I also love creating rich brunette colours, experimenting with creative colour and working with long hair—especially long, layered haircuts. Hair-ups are another favourite of mine, as I love creating something unique for every client and occasion.

I’m friendly, creative and always honest about what we can achieve while keeping your hair in the best possible condition. I love listening to your ideas and adding my own creative touch so that we can create something that feels completely like you. I’ll always talk you through the process and give you aftercare advice to help you maintain your hair and keep it looking and feeling its best at home.

You want a stylist who listens, loves being creative and gets just as excited about your new hair as you do. Whether you want something soft and natural or a big transformation, I’ll work with you to bring your ideas to life and make sure you leave feeling confident
