By Tamsyn Reynolds, Hello Hair I've been in this industry since birth. My great uncle Mason Costa led the way, my grandmother, my aunt, all stylists before me. Salons have always held a special place in my world. At 21 I took over my aunt's salon, 24 years later I have experienced hairdressing in many shapes and forms.

In the hairdressing and beauty industry, technical skill alone no longer guarantees business success. Salon owners, spa managers, and cosmetology professionals operate in an environment built on personal relationships, close-knit teams, and client trust where emotional intelligence has become as essential as technical expertise. Emotional intelligence is our ability to identify and manage our own emotions whilst recognising others' emotions and responding effectively. In an i

Chris Grimley, Teaxtured Hair Specialist & Owner of Fusion Hair Co & Texture Curl Academy Why Do We All Have Different Curl Patterns? One of the questions I’m asked all the time is, “Why doesn’t my hair look like hers?”, the simple answer is because curls are as individual as fingerprints. No two heads of textured hair are ever exactly the same, and that’s one of the things I love most about working with curls every single day. Your curl pattern is determined long before you
