What is electrolysis and how does it work?

Deborah Jones comes from a council estate background, is dyslexic and left school with no real qualifications.
As a single parent, after juggling several role at once, she wanted to become a positive role mode in her sons' lives, and set up her own electrolysis clinic and training academy. Due to her example, both her children have also started their own businesses. 

She explains exactly what electrolysis is, and how it works on the hair.

We also talk about her work with the London transgender clinic, working with transgender and non- binary patients to boost their confidence and also in preparation for surgery.

We discuss how educators can keep up to date with the latest techniques and why it is important to stay active within the industry, along with how to become a specialist in your field and why focusing on a specific niche could be the pathway to success.

How Hairdressers can better support clients with hair loss

Louise Howard-Long set up her own salon at 24, and thought that she was an understanding hairdresser, who could help support her clients through problems such as hair loss.
That is, until she experienced hair loss herself!

She describes her experience with two simultaneous alopecia conditions as one that affected her wellbeing, her sense of self  and caused her to lose her sense of perspective.

She took to Instagram and created videos documenting what was happening to her, and got a really positive response. She even took time off work to come to terms with her hair loss.

She is now passionate about supporting her clients in more ways if they suffer from hair loss, giving them more options and adding more information to their website about products and techniques that can help them to disguise and manage their condition.

Dealing with cancer and hair loss ~ My New Hair W/ Trevor Sorbie

Trevor Sorbie MBE joins me this week to talk about the My New Hair charity, working with clients who may be experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatments such as chemotherapy.

He has worked with L'Oreal for the last 15 years, their longest running seminar, teaching over 1,000 hairdressers how to cut and fit wigs and how to care for cancer patients.

We talk about his career that spans over four decades, after he found that he had a natural talent for hair.

Trevor shares information around the course, and how he has dealt with clients who have experienced cancer, including working at a hospice.

Information is key, and knowing where to go when you need help, or who to refer a client to, is key.

When Candace Christina turned 42 years old, after a mild case of COVID, she began to notice bald spots one month later. She also started to shed hair rapidly, and was finding it all over the house!
She then began to lose more and more hair, and was then diagnosed with alopecia universalis. She says that losing her hair was very traumatic, and the beginning of a huge journey for her to be more intentional and to embrace joy.

She created a documentary, sharing her hair loss journey. Being so open about her hair loss is difficult for her as she is usually a very private person, but she hopes that this will help and support others.

She describes how this experience has led her back to joy, and embracing the positive, fun side of life, including spending better time with her kids. She is determined to make her healing journey a positive experience.

She encourages anyone experiencing hair loss to make room for the new version of you; work out what makes you happy and do more of it!

Hair transplants and scalp micropigmentation ~ how they can be used together

Caitlin James has a background as a beauty therapist.
She expanded into medical beauty options and started to work alongside a hair transplant surgeon as a transplant assistant.

She first became aware of Scalp micropigmentation  at a conference in Alaska; it wasn't common in Australia at the time.

And so SMP Australia was set up  7 years ago.

Caitlin realised the potential for SMP to work hand- in- hand with transplant surgery to camouflage scarring, add density to transplanted areas and also work to minimise any scarring on the donor sites, especially if they have been over harvested.

She also finds that as clients age, they may find that hair systems or wigs can be limiting for their lifestyle and also start to look unnatural, and SMP can then help people transition to a more natural option.

Jane Kelly has been hairdressing for 44 years. She began her training in a salon with a wig shop, and through this began to fit & style wigs for theatre and panto.

Aderans, a global Japanese company, bought Trendco 20 years ago. They have over 800 trade accounts and provide education for these accounts and also the end user and wearer.

Jane specialises in finding individual bespoke solutions for different types of hair loss and conditions.

We discuss finding the best wig for you- how do you know what to choose?
Synthetic or real hair? Which base?

We also touch on wig maintenance, care and styling, what options you have when you don't want to wear a wig, and how to store them.

Life after chemotherapy ~ When and how is it safe to colour my hair?

Raoul Perfitt shares his knowledge and expertise on what cancer treatment does to the hair, and the best advice for those wanting to return to colouring their hair after their treatment.

We discuss how to proceed cautiously and safely when introducing anyone who has had cancer or illness back to colour. We also look at using professional techniques to create great results using safer options.

Organic colour systems was borne following the need for a safer hair colour with less chemicals, organic ingredients, no animal products or animal testing.
They noticed that colour technicians who use the products day in, day out, were becoming allergic to hair colour. So much so that they were having to abandon their careers.

Approved by the NHS and the British Trichology Association, they have created a safer product, not just for clients but for the hairdressers that use them too.
A safer product means a less chemical working environment. This enabled those with allergies or health issues to be able to return to industry again.
It also gives salons an option for those clients that have health issues and need a gentler option.

SMP ~ When a career change leads you to enhance people's lives

Will Quaye began doing scalp micropigmentation in 2019, and has completed a foundation course in Trichology.

He loves how low maintenance and user friendly the treatment is, combined with seeing how his clients have increased in confidence and are happier.
He describes some people who come to see him as desperately suffering, and how amazing it is that something that could be deemed as cosmetic can make such a difference.

He offers a personal level of service, and says every scalp and every treatment is unique.

We also discuss how you can persuade clients to promote and share your work when you are offering a very personal and private treatment.
