Peter Marcus Hairdressing
our News
We found ourselves in the thick of the Election hype yesterday (Thursday 15 April 2010) when our very own Marcus Shamim was called in to style none other than Sarah Brown’s hair; wife of Prime Minister, Gordon!
All the party leaders were in town for the first live leaders’ debate at Granada studios (you couldn’t step out of the salon door without falling over a journalist or photographer!) and there was definitely a buzz in the air in anticipation of the historic event.
We were soon thrust into the excitement when Marcus was called to the Radisson hotel to style the first lady of UK politics. She had a busy day of campaigning ahead of her and wanted to look her best to meet the people of Manchester. We were delighted to be called in and hope she chooses us again on her next visit to the city.
February saw us with lots more creative work (and lots of fun too) this time working on the new Matrix UK collection. We’re really looking forward to helping launch the whole collection later this year.
We will be on tour throughout the beginning of 2010 visiting Cardiff, Exeter and the South.
If you would be interested in joining our team, why not drop us a line at the salon? We’re always looking for the most talented people to join us.
So when we talk about a photo shoot what does it actually mean?
In Canada, we know you wont believe us – but it was actually hard work.
Here you can see some images of Marcus working with one of the models, to style her hair ready for the photographers to do their stuff.
The complete new style range was prepared with the Matrix Global team and then presented at a catwalk show.
Having just completed the photoshoot for the Global Collection with Matrix in Canada, we will be joining them again this month to take part in their annual conference on the 30th/31st January in Cardiff.
We will be presenting both the latest styles and techniques to an audience drawn from within the industry.
We were delighted to welcome Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt to the salon recently. She was in town for the new Sky 1 series Just Dance and asked if we could provide a stylist to help her prepare for the first day’s filming. We were of course more than happy to help.
