271 Creativity and the Art of Hairdressing: A Conversation with Angelo Seminara

I have always said that hairdressing is an amazing craft and that many hairdressers also have a creative side to them, which is often what draws them to this profession in the first place. But the term artist shouldn’t be used to describe every hairdresser because very few are. But occasionally, you come across a hairdresser who truly is an artist. An individual who consistently shows a level of creativity that separates them from the rest.  My guest today is Angelo Seminara, who is, without doubt, an artist in the true sense of the word. In fact, I’m going to say that when it comes to hair, he is nothing short of a creative genius.  In today’s podcast, we will discuss: - Creativity in hairdressing - Sustainability in product development- The importance of mentorship And lots more!  IN THIS EPISODE: [01:08] Introducing Angelo Seminara: A true hair artist[02:20] Angelo's early start in hairdressing[08:09] The journey to London and meeting Trevor Sorbie[18:32] The importance of mentorship[23:50] Defining Angelo's unique work[32:06] Exploring editorial work and product design[36:19] Defining beauty and suitability[44:37] The importance of fashion in hairdressing[46:31] Working with product companies[49:53] Awards and recognition in hairdressing[53:37] Future aspirations and creative venturesWant MORE to help you GROW? 📚 Check out our Bestselling GROW Bookshttps://growmysalonbusiness.com/books/ 🆘 Management overwhelm!?

Om Podcasten

I know that being in business isn’t always easy. Along with the many highs and ‘a ha’ moments it can sometimes be soul destroying, frustrating and a very lonely place to be. Being a business owner is one of life’s greatest educations and it gives you two clear choices, either you continually learn, adapt and grow, or you resist change, stagnate and perish. We live in ever changing and sometimes challenging times, so being informed and constantly inspired is more important than ever. Join Antony Whitaker talking to thought leaders on the business side of the hairdressing industry discussing insightful, provocative and inspiring ideas that matter. Get ready to learn, get ready to be challenged, get ready to be inspired and most importantly get ready to grow your salon business!
