I ❤❤❤❤ Geno I miss seeing him at hair shows! I use to listen to his cassettes and lol before it was called lol He’s super knowledgeable, talented, honest and funny!!!
urgh.
Im currently running a salon business at the same time having invited to some hairstyling event and giving out seminars for products company. But it's non paid job ,it's for exposure and advertising of myself . Is this normal ? Or am I doing it wrong ? I'm not famous ,but I thought of it's a opportunity for my future career to come. Pls advice master
Great conversation and answers for any creative right now, very difficult for young people with so much competition and living costs today to pursue what they love rather than an office job

She's a breath of fresh air! another great talk!

This was great feedback! Thank you kindly. 💜💅🏾👣
Every video I watch from you is inspiring me even with just being a strong stylist in my salon without being a manager
Thats fantastic to hear! 🙌
So so true,
I just ❤love everything I've watched from you and I just found this channel ! You have literally reignited my passion for what I've been doing for 16 years with my KZread rabbit hole after having a really hard client today
That's so great to hear, I'm really glad that it's been helpful, Thank you for letting me know. Everyone has good days and bad days as long as there are more good than bad! 😊
I love how every video you've included a very good quote from someone ❤
Yea that 'storing it up' I like building a shopping list to the store and I still go in and buy stuff I don't need, ahem.... metaphorically speaking 😅
I just want to put 2000 likes on this ❤
hahaha thank you! 🙏
At a salon l work for the owner makes the employees clean her salon from sweeping moping and even cleaning the bathroom and changing your trash bags (she doesn’t even provide bags) I think the salon owner should hire a cleaning staff!
Good values to be practiced while working in a salon
great interview! Sound advice Could listen to Sean for hours!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it, Sean has a wise head on his shoulders!
great interview loved his down to earth advise and demeanor
Thanks for that feedback, yes I agree his down to earth approach and common sense is refreshing
❤
I usually charge full price including every extra service based on our price list but some customers complain saying the other salon doesn’t charge certain extra services. I am focusing to maintain the highest quality nail services.
Thank you so much
One of the best youtube channels I have come across!!
I really appreciate that feedback, and I'm glad that you find it helpful!
Simple yet EXTREMELY helpful..great content
Thank you, really pleased to hear that it's helpful!
Thank you.
You're welcome! 🙏
I am interrelated
Everyone wants a discount and claim that they can't afford the price but take a moment to see them pulling up in a new car and avpack of cigarettes in their front pocket and a case of beer on ice lol. Everyone wants to save a buck nonetheless People will pay for an exceptional job and the experience behind the cut is your best selling price..
Great Energy,very informative .thank you
Thanks, glad that it was helpful!
❤
Thank you! 😊
Hi Trevor, I am sad to hear your not to well, don’t know if you get see this, but you have said somethings of great truth, bless you and sending you love and best regards, it’s been years since we last talked but it’s only time and walked different directions but we all end in the same place! Darryll Benson.
Flint good to hear from you. Great story. I didn’t remember it. Max was the manager. I was a varderer at the time it opened and maybe they didn’t share that story with me. Cheers Leon
You haven’t changed Annie my love just as positive and as clear as your colours always are, a little late maybe but haven’t seen you in a long time, but thank you for all your enhancements to my haircuts, miss youxxxxxxxxxxx Darryllb.
Hi Darryll, could you send me an email at [email protected] I'd like to connect with you.
Great interview Antony. Manchester opened 1971. I joined VS as a varderer as it opened.
Thanks leon 🙏🏻
Leon, remember Stanley, New Zealand stylist started at Manchester on the first day. Had to sleep on the salon floor for a few days and wash in the bathroom. Sassoon hadn't arranged for accommodation and didn't pay him so the manager had to pay him out of petty cash. I got a phone call from him on a busy Saturday morning at Bond St salon, he was at Heathrow airport. Bugger this Flint, I didn't sigh up for this nonsense, I'm going home. 2 years later I visited him in his salon. He had a sports car and after work went surfing. He is now a property developer but still cuts hair in his one chair salon overlooking his surf beach.
Ill never forget the tribulation going to Manchester from London for the opening . The buss broke down and we had to wait somewhere for the replacement . well we got their and back the same day. I remember we used to tech a guy who had a salon across the street. who came often but never came again after Sassoon opened and became competition.
@@johnsantilli7096 The salon was called James & Peter on King Street. Max, Jeffrey and I tried to connect with him, but he deemed it competition.
They were friends of mine before I left Sassoon's but as I left they dropped me. Hahaha That was an eye opener. They showed me that being from Sassoons was not going to get me anywhere.I remember Richard Thomson being there.
That was a great interview. Thanks I loved it and of course, having done shows with Annie around the world and especially at the Academy from when we started for the first time to do colouring in the cutting courses in 1974 to 77 nearly every few weeks week when Baleage was invented.
The time passes quickly thats for sure... I occasionally speak with Yoshio Ohno and he mentions your name fondly.
When Darryll and I were introducing the internal texture work it was Annie we went to to solve the ideas we had for colour. Our theories often went way outside the box: she found a way to make them work. Flint.
I'm honoured to know you listened 🙏
Baleage is considered a French technique but its plain to see that in fact it was between Flint, Darryll and Anne that this technique was invented by them and has been around 50 years. The only thing French about Baleage is the name.
@@johnsantilli7096 Well I weren't there but popular opinion is that the Carita sisters started it? ...
I'm sure it must have been done before but we had a new cutting technique to colour to. We had been studying cubism and Impressionism and applied their principals ( segment cutting, each segment starting off one colour and grading into another colour, usually its opposite on the colour wheel. ) Then I got Annie to dab blobs of colour on the hair a la Seurat's Pointillism. Ash based colour created dead spots, yellow ( gold ) based colour produced light and perceived lift. Didn't photograph well but played tricks on the eyes in real life. None of my work was photographed officially and Darryll's internal concave cut was blind to the camera. Photographing 3 dimensional shapes is a waste of time, doesn't give you any information.
@@flintwhincop It's because of your understanding of the principals of art and the insights you had, that 50 years later the people that matter from that era still hold you and Darryll in such high regard. 🙏🏻
Thank you for posting this content. I’m an independent salon owner that has reached the point of needing to scale - hire an employee.
I'm glad that it's been helpful!
What an incredible and wonderful interview! It took me way back when I was a ‘Junior’ and I had the privilege and honor to work with Annie. She is a true icon of the industry and just a lovely, lovely person. Thank you Annie for your years of guidance. Sending much love and respect! ❤️ And cheers to you Antony 💪🏽
They were great days for sure, she's an amazing person, thanks for the kind words.🙏
Annie is Iconic to the hair world, she will be a historic figure always, I say this with much respect too.
