Austin Smith
Alan Austin-Smith and Carolyn Field have over 35 years of experience in the salon industry, from their early days at Sassoons through to successful careers as creative hairdressers, educators, salon owners and in Alan’s case; 8 years with L’Oreal, before forming the leading business education company in the UK Salon Industry.
With a customer list that includes Trevor Sorbie, Michael Van Clarke, HOB, Rainbow Room, Clipso, Headmasters, Toni & Guy, Brooks & Brooks, Hooker & Young, Umberto Giannini, Wella, Aveda, Goldwell and Alfa Parf, not to mention the vast amount of ‘normal’ fantastic salons out there that we work with on an ongoing basis, it’s easy to trust that The Fantastic Hairdresser gets real results!
Alan believes that the only way to get the results we need is through a motivated and passionate team. He believes that we have to change the way we communicate to hairdressers to achieve the levels of commitment needed.
