1. Why hair?
Let me be honest, i'm not going to say it was what I always wanted to do from a young age, I have always been into fashion and one thing lead to another and doors opened up to me in this career so I gave it a try; I've never looked back! It was the best decision and direction I could have made and taken with my life.

2.What trends are you liking?
Texture, it's all about texture long or short

3. What advice would you give to an aspiring hair stylist?
