Nicky is an award-winning hairstylist, colourist and educator from Wexford, Ireland. With over 14 years of experience, spanning across Ireland and the UK, he has worked and trained with Vidal Sassoon, Mahogany, Alan Keville and Joe Mills.

Starting his career in his hometown, he was swiftly drawn to the bright lights of London, where he finished his training under the mentorship of former Sassoon principles.

Working between London and Dublin for over 10 years, the UK finally became home 5 years ago when a position as a L’Oreal professional education consultant afforded him the opportunity to work with some of the best known names in the industry.

“I loved being in education, teaching and sharing my knowledge. I love helping people hone their craft, but I really found the connections, the trust and friendship you develop between clients are so important, hence the reason I returned to the salon full-time.”

“I always say this is not like work. Each day, I come to an environment that I love. Meeting lovely, infectious people, while providing them with some happiness, brings me immense joy. In return, my clients and colleagues allow me to express myself and be who I want to be.”

“I feel especially fortunate to work in areas like Mayfair, Soho, Hackney,Tooting and Furzedown. There’s a real sense of community, that’s the environment I grew up in and feel most at home. Each environment I’ve worked in have welcomed me with open arms”
