Listen Later

In this podcast episode in partnership with Wella Professionals, I sit down at Grid Studios London for a conversation with Lucan Salem—Director of HARI’s salon group. Lucan will share the inspiring journey of HARI’s, a salon business started in Sydney Street, Chelsea, London by his father and visionary Hari Salem in 1976.

Lucan and his sister have expanded HARI’s from three to five thriving salons across London in Chelsea, Notting Hill and Battersea. He stresses with us the importance of rigorous training and development, creating a culture of continuous learning and excellence. You’ll take from this episode how HARIS’s commitment to excellence has made it a premium brand—enabling its staff to excel and grow.

And what about Lucan?  We cover that too as we learn how Initially, Lucan pursued a career in chemistry and business management to distinguish himself from his family’s trade. However, his father’s influence led him to enter the salon business—a decision that would shape Lucan’s life and the future direction of HARI’s.

We also learn how having a strong partnership with Wella Professionals has played a crucial role in aligning HARI’s values, enhancing team education, and fostering a sense of community. Two brands aligned rich in heritage—and both dedicated to helping people look their best!

Stay tuned to also hear about Lucan’s recent meditation retreat. He tells us why he believes that mindfulness and balance are essential for personal and professional growth.

This episode provides valuable insights for hairdressers and salon owners on leadership, the importance of culture, and community engagement within the salon industry. Join us to learn how Lucan steers HARI’s salons forward with a vision rooted in family values and innovation.
