Lyndsay, all the way from Yorkshire England, began working for an international hairdressing company at the age of 16 and while working alongside international artistic directors she soon knew this was what she wanted to do and it wasn’t long before Lyndsay had started to work her way up to an artistic director herself. She has been extremely fortunate to work around the globe alongside some of the most talented in the industry, taking her to work at London fashion week, presenting on stage at Salon International London and Hair Expo in both Melbourne and Sydney. Lyndsay’s love of education naturally led her to want to become an educator and in 2016 she completed a Cert IV in teaching and assessment. She has worked on various editorial campaigns for designers in the United Kingdom, Australia and Asia and her work has been published in numerous fashion magazines.
