Hi I’m Jade a Curl Specialist & Coach based in Cardiff, Wales.

MY JOURNEY WITH CURLS...

I'm a curl specialist and educator with over 20 years of experience working with all hair textures. My journey began in 2003 when I trained at the prestigious Sassoon Academy, where I was fortunate to receive a solid foundation in cutting all hair types including afro and textured hair. This early training was invaluable and shaped my commitment to inclusivity and excellence in hairdressing from the very beginning.

Coming from a mixed-heritage background, I grew up surrounded by curls and afro hair, and it was within my own family that my passion for curls truly took root. Over the years, I naturally built a loyal curly-haired clientele, and that connection only deepened after lockdown, when I felt a strong calling to give back to the curly community.

To do that, I made the decision to reinvest in my craft continuing my education, taking advanced courses, and refining the techniques I used behind the chair. I’ve trained with industry-leading educators including Reema Jaba on the Cadō technique, Aleise from Cut It Kinky, and Jennie Roberts at the Kevin Fortune Styling Academy. These experiences have helped me evolve as both a stylist and an educator.

My Mission

I’ve always had a passion for sharing knowledge. Teaching has been part of my journey from the early stages of my career, and I pride myself on creating a learning environment that is approachable, inclusive, and empowering. You’ll never feel judged or silly for asking a question that you feel you should already know. I believe every stylist deserves the space to grow confidently.

Currently based in Cardiff, I regularly teach here and have also led education sessions in Manchester, London, and even Dubai. I’m a perfectionist at heart, but always warm, down-to-earth, and committed to helping both my clients and fellow stylists feel seen, supported, and celebrated.

With advanced training and years of hands-on experience, my salon and education services are uniquely positioned to empower both stylists and clients on their journey toward confidence, knowledge, and care in all things curls and coils.
