A warm room to sit in
Peach walls, two basins and low light — the atelier was built to feel calm.
A clean nape
A graduated shape checked section by section down to the neckline.
At the basin
Bond repair and scalp work begin here, with a long rinse and no rush.
Shape, section by section
Weight taken out a little at a time, checked in the mirror as it goes.
Chairs, mirrors, daylight
Plenty of space between the chairs, and light the whole way down the room.
Shears, kept sharp
A rail of cutting and thinning shears, sharpened on a schedule.
Curls, defined
A dry cut shaped curl by curl so the natural pattern does the talking.
Calm, by design
One stylist, one chair, no rush — the station is set before you arrive.
The last check
Comb, shears and one more pass before the blow-dry.
