"I’d been following Zoe’s career for years with admiration and respect for her flair and creativity, so when an opportunity arose in the spring for us to meet, I was taken by the synergy between us. Her personality, creative mind and eye for detail, reflect the salon’s ethos superbly and I know Zoe’s ideas are perfect for taking Hari’s to the next level”
- Hari
With one finger firmly on the fashion pulse her colour, cuts and styling are always bang on trend.
In the words of Polly Vernon at the Observer, "Zoe is an absolute genius. She's the first person I've ever allowed to colour my hair and I am so happy with it, I can barely speak... I totally trust her judgement, she can take one look at a client (at their clothes, shoes, handbag and every accessory) and know exactly where they're going - or wish they could go - with their whole look. Then she does your hair accordingly. She's without doubt one of the very best out there."
As Zoe herself explains "What I'm all about is dissecting trends and key catwalk looks to make them into accessible styles for the woman on the street - something that’s currently not widely available but is definitely widely sought after. I take an entirely holistic approach to my work and I focus on educating my team so that their aim is not just to create a hairstyle but a complete look, they train seasonally with trends teams at St Martins and MAC which is really inspiring. Within Hari’s I have found the talent, the skill and the perfect environment – I'm really pleased to be here!"
But its Zoe's ability to style hair with 'more thought than product,' that explains why her die hard fans don't see anyone else. Simply, Zoe has that genius knack of knowing how to give you the best hair you can have. Each visit will include a season update and consultation to find your perfect shade, to match not just your skin tone but your wardrobe to. And do book in for pre and post colour treatments to keep colour looking brighter for longer. From colour to cuts, to brightening boosts to blow dry classes; whatever you book in for we promise your hair will just look better. And because Zoe has this gorgeous relaxed confidence, she instils total loyalty in all her clients.
A true ideas factory Zoe brings to Hari's more than a backstage pass to the hottest looks.
Already in place are her new catwalk manicures (inspired by the Prada and Luella shows), new skin salads for a total holistic approach to looking great. There are exciting times ahead for Hari’s. Watch this space…
