Hello to all of you lovely people reading my bio. I hope you enjoy my little story. I started hairdressing over 20 years ago, opening my first salon at the age of 19. After developing my skills across the hair, beauty, and barbering industry, I became an educator and ambassador for Keune Cosmetics. In 2017, I moved to Manchester, where I founded Avesta, which has grown into both a salon and an academy by 2024. We are now partnered with the best luxury brand in the market, Keune Cosmetics. While I have a deep love for hairdressing, my true passion lies in making my clients feel amazing about themselves and leaving the salon with a smile on their faces. I am an all-round hairdresser, but here are a few areas I particularly enjoy: I get excited about drastic colour changes and colour corrections. I thrive on the challenge, and technical services are my specialties. I love working with Asian and Middle Eastern hair to achieve hair goals that seem impossible. My approach involves mixing and matching colouring techniques to create your ultimate look. Working with naturally curly and Afro-Caribbean hair is another specialty of mine. With curly hair myself, I understand the challenge of finding the right haircut and style. I will pamper your beautiful curls and advise you on suitable products to help you style your hair at home. I love cutting and styling hair, tailoring my approach based on the feel and texture of each client’s hair. Whether you desire a short bob or a long layered look, I can help you achieve it. I enjoy barbering as well. Men’s hair services may be less versatile, but this offers me the chance to get creative. You’ll be amazed at how minor changes can have a major impact on your appearance. Hair extensions are one of my favorites. I started doing them when they were first introduced to the industry, and I love adding volume and length to your hair, whether through classic weaves, micro and nanobeads, or tapes. I can always advise you on choosing the right colour and cut that suits your face shape, skin tone, and lifestyle to achieve a personalized look. It brings me joy to see my clients leave the salon with a boost of confidence, thinking, “Wow, I look amazing today.” My passion for hair is immense; I truly live, breathe, and sleep it. Thank you for reading my bio, and I hope to see you soon!
Hi everyone and thank you for reading my bio. I have always had a passion for hair. My hairdressing journey started by experimenting on my friends hair when I was a young girl. I then joined the Trafford Collage doing my full time level 2 hair and beauty and I enjoyed every minute of it. I have experienced working in high street salons and finally found the right one for me at Avesta over 5 years ago. I enjoy working with long hair. Balayages and other colour techniques are my favourites as the allow me to use my talent and creative side. curls/curly blow dry and curly hair are my other specialities. I love doing a full transformation from start to finish and make people amazed and happy. having more than 10 years experience in the industry and wining multiple creative awards, I would consider myself a versatile stylist and can work from hair from different ethnicities, I also enjoy vivid colours and short cuts.

Hello All My name is Amin and I am one of the founders and directors of Avesta. I was first introduced to the world of hairdressing and barbering 15 years ago after my graduation and I was mesmerised by the artistic side of the industry. The ambiance, creativity and the banter of the salon life is what made me choose this as a career. When it comes to the cut and style, I enjoy creating the look that is bespoke to my clients. I believe it is crucial to help my clients understand their hair type and help them maintain their desired look easily at home. Along the way, I try to use some of the tricks and final touches that makes a difference in your hair. 😉 I love meeting new people and enjoy the conversations and debates with my clients either it’s social, political or just a fun and casual one. 🙂 If you are looking for a fresh skin fade, shadow fade, tapered cut, top knot, pompadour, crew cut, etc. I am at your disposal.
Hi everyone! Here’s a quick insight into my journey in this industry so far & thank you for reading! I’ve been hairdressing for roughly 9 years now & it has forever been my passion. I’ve always been more of a practical learner so as soon as I left school, I trained in college to acquire the skills I needed within this profession & slowly grew more confident & learned that it was definitely the career path for me. Soon after, I went on to become a Senior Stylist and have loved every minute of it. I have strong points in all aspects of hairdressing but I’d say I love cutting & styling the most. Whether they’re dramatic cuts to just a restyle! I really enjoy seeing those little split ends come off at the end of my scissors. But don’t worry! I stay true to the client’s desire. If you ask me for an inch off, that’s what I’ll give you but I promise you, you’ll go out of the salon feeling refreshed & almost brand new no matter the length you’re looking to take off. I also really enjoy doing a balyagé. I believe it’s one of the best styles to ever come about & is such a great way to prolong the maintenance of a colour! Blonde balyagé’s or a honey brown, I love it all! I’m also exceptionally good at massaging. Client’s always compliment my ability to be able to release all tension through their scalp when conditioning. So much so that I’ve been questioned if I have been trained in Indian Head Massage. I haven’t but I guess I’ve got the touch! Having recently shaved my head from shoulder length hair, I’ve learned now more than ever how important hair can be for confidence. This is why I am invested in learning what my clients like & don’t like and finding the style that’s perfectly tailored to suit them. I’m very easy to talk to & can promise a lovely experience. I believe that every person should embrace who they are. Hair is a big part of a person’s character & I love to help my clients reflect their personality through it! I’ve relocated to Manchester from the outskirts of Birmingham to join the best of the best in order to thrive in this industry as well as learn and bounce off the other stylists within this incredible salon. I can’t wait to welcome all my clients and give them that pleasurable feeling after leaving a salon!
Hello everyone and thanks for taking the time to read my bio! My hairdressing journey started when I was 17 doing an apprenticeship which I qualified with a distinction. I still want to better myself and learn everything there is to know about hairdressing, that’s why I am currently undergoing a further qualification in hair. I am passionate about my job and the work I create. I listen to my clients and love to interpret my own ideas to make sure that the service provided suits their image, lifestyle and personality. I also bring my clients vision to life which leaves them with a glowing sensation when leaving the salon. My favourite part of hairdressing is colouring. Highlights are a delight to do, it’s so satisfying. If you want to be a blonde bombshell, I am the stylist for you! 🙂 I also love doing balayages and ombrés. A blended balayage can be for any hair colour; rich browns, blondes, coppers, reds, any colour you can think of. A secret of mine, copper is my all time favourite colour. I love the vibrant look it gives. Long hair is another passion to me. I enjoy creating layers around the face to tailor the clients beauty. ‘Bangs’ have become a big trend recently and I absolutely LOVE them!! Styling long hair gives me a thrill. Curls, waves, straight hair, any style you desire, I can create. 😀 There’s plenty more to know about me so why not book in for an appointment and we can have a gossip and give you the hair of your dreams!
