At 22 Olivier left France to work in various places around the world including Australia, Kenya and Bahrain (where he met his partner, Karen who also works in the hair salon). For the past 27 years he has made Manchester his home, opening his first salon near the famous Midland Hotel in December 1995 and moving into the Northern Quarter in May 2005. It was an exciting move because the creative and independent feel of the area really fitted with the salon's outlook and philosophy.

Olivier has an extensive knowledge of all things hair (he's been doing it since he was 15), thanks to an extensive 'old school' training programme undertaken at the L'Oreal Academy and an exclusive private training college, both in Paris.

In addition to demanding excellent customer care from his team, Olivier insists on running the salon in a friendly and relaxed manner. This laid-back approach, however, doesn't compromise the salon's highly professional service. Olivier's intention is to put people at ease so that even the most nervous can feel relaxed and enjoy their experience.

Karen met Olivier in Bahrain nearly 30 years ago. Over 25 years ago they decided to leave the Middle East for Manchester (Karen's home town) to open their own business.
Karen is responsible for the day to day running of the salon as well as dealing with the less sexy aspects of owning a small business.
