EP090: Being the Great Showman of Hairdressing’s Live Stage – with Simon Shaw


Listen Later

Global Artistic Director of Wahl (UK), Simon Shaw is a huge attraction at major exhibitions with his success extending beyond the UK, as demand for his unique showmanship has seen him undertake successful tours in over 20 countries. But who is this showman away from hairdressings live stage? Simon’s here today to share an open and frank interview with us all, giving a rare insight into his life, influential role at Wahl (UK), and the story that’s seen him rise to become one of the most popular & highly regarded hairdressers & barbers within the industry.

It all started for Simon far away from the bright lights of the global hair stages. Launching his hairdressing career on the Youth Training Scheme (today’s equivilant of an Apprenticeship) in his hometown of Barnsley, England, his natural leadership qualities combined with a passionate and committed approach to hairdressing education, Simon’s talents stood him out as the perfect frontman of the stage… something the Wahl (UK) quickly identified in him.

Today leading his Wahl Artistic team at exhibitions, seminars and courses around the globe, this cheeky say-it-as-you-see-it Northern lad has come a long way from those early YTS days. Charged with producing the Wahl hairdressing stages to be the most fun and exciting hairdressing stages, Simon is undoubtedly a leading star in hairdressing. So don’t just take our word for it – let’s get in to learning how it all unfolded for Simon by hitting that play button.
