There is nothing this power house won’t put her hand to!

Bridal hair is also one of my faves! I really enjoy the boho styles and the pulled out plaits with a few fresh flowers to finish off. The bridal fashion is always changing, I find it really rewarding to do a bride on her wedding day.

The world isn’t always a cheerful place, so having a dry sense of humour is a great tool to have and Michelle certainly has us all laughing! Michelle has amassed a large male following at the salon, but we can put her husband at ease… As we are sure this is down to her excellent barbering skills!
