Meet Jack

Lived-in Blonde & Colour Specialist

Wella TrendVision Award Finalist 2020

Known for his meticulous attention to detail and calm, honest approach, Jack believes every appointment should begin with a conversation. His consultations are designed to ensure both stylist and client leave with the same clear vision—discussing everything from inspiration and maintenance to budget, timescales and the long-term health of the hair. By removing uncertainty, clients can relax knowing every recommendation has been carefully considered.

Jack’s philosophy is simple: the client always comes first. Rather than chasing unrealistic results, he focuses on creating colour that complements your lifestyle, grows out beautifully and protects the integrity of your hair. If achieving your goal requires multiple appointments or a different approach, he’ll always explain why. Clear communication, realistic expectations and healthy hair will always take priority over quick fixes.

Specialising in beautifully blended lived-in colour, balayage and transformative colour corrections, Jack particularly enjoys solving complex colour challenges while creating effortlessly expensive-looking results that feel natural rather than overdone.

Alongside his work behind the chair, Jack is passionate about continuous education and raising standards within the industry. Looking ahead, he hopes to become recognised not only for exceptional colour work, but also for helping build a supportive community where hair professionals continue learning from one another and sharing knowledge.

Outside the salon you’ll usually find Jack cooking with his partner, enjoying good food and a glass of white wine, or listening to house music with an ice-cold Irn-Bru Zero never too far away.

If there’s one thing Jack wants every new client to know before booking, it’s this:

“I’ll always give you honest advice, even if it’s not what you expected to hear. Your experience, your trust and the long-term health of your hair will always come before chasing a result that’s unrealistic or unsustainable.”

Beautiful colour should look effortless, grow out gracefully and always respect the long-term health of the hair.

For Jack, exceptional hair has never been about following trends or taking shortcuts. It’s about understanding the person sitting in the chair, creating a clear plan together and delivering results that feel considered, sophisticated and uniquely personal.

With over 16 years of experience, Jack has established himself as a specialist in lived-in colour, balayage and advanced colour correction. His technical approach to colour saw him recognised as a Wella TrendVision Award Finalist in the Colour Specialist category in 2020, reflecting his commitment to precision, creativity and continual development within the industry.
