Every recoding I learn something new, this week was no different.I LOVED learning more about the barbering industry and how it is continually evolving.This week my guest is Joe Kurdyla, Co- Owner of Kings Domain Barbershop, Saint Domain Barbers &amp; Kings Domain Haircare.Joe has been involved in the hair industry for over 15 years, starting his career at Toni &amp; Guy, Bradford, UK. During his time there Joe quickly realised that his passion was in men’s hair and barbering. It has been quite a journey going from working in a $10 barbershop in Bradford to where he is today. Since moving to Australia and joining the team at Kings Domain Joe has not only opened his own shop, he has also been involved in developing / wholesaling the Kings Domain Haircare range and now another venture in a new barber shop, Saint Domain. I loved learning the process of creating the product range, and how the team within the barber shops trialed and tested each product. I saw the value of that and how it would make the team more passionate about retailing a product involved in creating.We also spoke about the new Saint Domain barbershops, which is due to launch later this year. Saint Domain will be a more stripped back and streamlined service within the barbering scene and I loved getting the inside scoop.For the full story you will have to tune into this weeks episode of UN-FOILED https://www.instagram.com/un_foiled/https://www.instagram.com/joekurdyla/https://www.instagram.com/kingsdomainbarbers/https://www.instagram.com/kingsdomainhaircare/https://www.instagram.com/saintdomainbarbers/YOUTUBE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs4RSP_rStxASa4xTs4OEYg/videos Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

I first came across Maria on an instagram live a few months back. I was immediately drawn to her kind and calm energy. The way she spoke about leading her team and the kind of salon owner she was, I knew I needed to hear more.Although there are so many incredible accolades in Marias career this episode is heavily focused on the business and relationship side of her journey. Maria Unali is a hairdresser whose proficiency behind the chair is evenly matched by admirable business leadership.  Simultaneously awarded the position of AHFA NSW Hairdresser of the Year and winner of the Hair Expo Salon Design Award in 2017, the Western Sydney born mother of two has established herself as a diversely talented star, amongst clientele and industry peers alike. Despite early concerns that a life outside the metro might dilute her opportunity to create an image-led career path, Unali was determined to shape a future that was based on a wide-eyed vision, a canvas confined only by her infinite imagination.  From inception, her approach was full of gusto and grace spending 5 years as a volunteer session assistant learning from highly skilled and respected international stylists including Sarah Laidlaw, Richard Kavanagh and Alan White. Her name appeared frequently on call sheets for popular fashion brands such as Bec and Bridge, Tony Maticevski and Romance was Born as well as large Advertising projects with Marie Claire, Supre and Mimco. In 2013, whilst working with 3 dimensional hair designs continued to appeal, the then 27 year old turned her focus to photographic work. With countless test shoots scheduled and shot and an inaugural collection under her belt, Unali created Neon Pop, a strong and athletic compilation that caught the eye of British Hairdressing royalty who awarded her AHFA NSW Hairdresser of the Year for 2014.   In 2015 Unali’s innate eye for creating beautiful editorial hair and precision cuts was recognised by a cohort of Australia’s top Hairdressers and Media players who selected her to be part of the esteemed Australian FAME Team.  During a 12-month tenure under the Creative Direction of Brett McKinnon (The Murphy Gozzard Hair Community) the young stylist traversed the globe sharing her skill and affection for hairdressing at Hair Expo Australia (Aus), Industry Extracted (NZ) and Salon International (UK).  Whilst regularly praised for her work in hair fashion, perhaps the greatest testament to the stylist’s exquisite taste was the 2016 launch of award winning Salon Kiin.   In a venture that took courage, uprooting a deep family anchor in a local shopping centre, the birth of what has been deemed a true lifestyle salon space, demonstrates the intelligent business vein of a once self-confessed insatiable creative. Attributing the success of her new residence to an exhaustive research phase that identified an evolution in her target market and employee DNA, alongside a solid reputation and heritage, initiated by Papa back in 1981, Salon Kiin is a noteworthy symbol of an unwavering vision in the mind of a brilliant artist.  2021 saw Marias second salon, a stunning Salon Kaia. Located in Wollongong and designed with decadence in mind, Salon Kaia delivers a feel good hairdressing experience that nurtures your whole self—from the inside out.Youtube;https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs4RSP_rStxASa4xTs4OEYg Instagram;@maria_unali@salonkiin@salonkaia@un_foiled@colourbycrys MARIA’S RECCOMENDATIONS Books for Salon Owners: Dare to Lead by Brene Brown Leaders Eat Last &amp; The Infinite Game by Simon SinekNo Rules Rule by Reed Hastings &amp; Erin Meyer Podcasts for Salon Owners:EntreleadershipA bit of Optimism by Simon SinekWork life by Adam GrantDare to lead with Brene Brown (Spotify) Books for stylists:Braving the wilderness by Brene BrownLimitless Mind by Jo BoalerAtomic Habits by James Clear Podcasts for Stylists:My Millennial CareerKwik BrainSmart People Podcast Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

This episode expanded not only my mind but my heart. Colour is the reason that Jack Morton is a Hairdresser. With a background in Art and Design and an impressive portfolio of original art pieces to boot, this North London born artist is an authentic inventor, who haphazardly stumbled across hair as a potentially appealing new canvas. Toni&amp;Guy was his first atelier and 20 years later and a small jump across the seas to Australia, he still works full time for the brand. Comfortably transitioning from salon to stage, Jack was appointed as National Technical Director for TONI&amp;GUY in 2015, touring the country to educate from foundational through to advanced colour techniques. As a true conceptualist, Jack has been engaged by a number of profiled salon teams and individual stylists as a creative catalyst, hosting dynamic workshops for those seeking originality, or wanting to understand how to successfully communicate their own ideation process.  Fast forward to 2018 with Jack acquiring 2 more ‘director’ titles. Firstly, as Creative Director for the Australian FAME Team, followed by Creative Director for Wella Professionals ANZ. Intelligent and incredibly witty, Jack pushes the boundaries and allows others to take a deeper look not only into their work as a hairstylist but into them selves. Anyone who is lucky enough to know Jack knows his incredible capability to connect with people, this episode is no different. @jackmortoncreative@colourbycrys@un_foiled Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

I’m calling this “ The biggest interview since Harry &amp; Meghan” 😂The woman I have adored since the moment I saw her on stage at my first hair show, Sonya Dove. This was an incredible, emotional and full circle moment for me.Sonya had me in tears at my first hair show with Behind the Chair in New Orleans. If you have listened to the podcast for a while you’d have heard me share this story.I watched her segment and had one of those moments that only happens a few times in a persons life. In that moment the penny dropped.At the time I didn’t know there was much more to our industry than being in the salon, but seeing Sonya on stage at this massive event I knew it was where I was meant to be.This week on the podcast I learnt that show not only changed my career path but also hers.From the moment we said hello the conversation flowed, I seriously could have talked to her forever.Although all episodes are available in both audio and video I highly recommend watching this one on Youtube. Watching it back I felt so full and so grateful.I hope you will feel as inspired as I did by this incredible woman this week on @un_foiled.  @sonyadove@colourbycrys@wellahair@wellaeducation Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

Carlas passion is apparent from the moment you meet her. “Coming from little Adelaide, I realised at the age of 21 that I had a need inside me for more. So off I flew to London, where I quickly learned about the hairdressing industry and what different paths you could go down. This experience presented me with both road blocks and blessings. I now realise that even the road blocks were blessings.Throughout my career I&#39;ve been inspired to grow my knowledge and use my loud personality to my advantage. London opened doors to me through my constant grind for education, and I found myself quickly getting to learn with brands like Redken &amp; Wella. I took these lessons back to the salon and changed the way I consulted and formulated, which for me, was a game changer. “Carla has never been one to be satisfied just being behind the chair (even though she loved colour changes and a great naughty chat with clients). She needed more, so she stepped into management, which created endless opportunity to broaden her skills. After a profitable year managing a very successful London salon, in 2018, Carla received the title of UK and Ireland Manager of the Year.Carla is now back in Australia and making waves in the hair community by following her passion and launching a freelance education platform, Roots Society.She takes us through her journey this week on The Successful Stylist, UN-FOILED @thecarlarinaldi@rootssociety_@colourbycrys Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

She always loved painting so was drawn immediately to colour. “After I finished my apprenticeship I saved my pennies and travelled to LA to do a creative colour course at Vidal Sassoon which changed the whole way I approach colour and still influences the way I do colour today. I then travelled to San Francisco and worked at Diva International and mentored by Diva Poulos, Artistic International Team member for Sebastian Professional  As an apprentice I assisted Mark Hayes and the UK Sassoon Team at Hair Expo. I was a finalist for Wella Trend Vision and more recently for Labiosthetique Colour Lab 2017. I have also been fortunate to assist Kevin Murphy on numerous Melbourne and Sydney fashion weeks and Hair Expo GenNext. I worked at Head over Heels, Newtown for 16 years and was the colour director there for 10 years. I was mentored by Nathan Gorman, Head Master for Kevin Murphy, who I owe a lot of my success to. Working in Newtown for so many years allowed me to become an expert in a diverse range of colours from pastels and rainbows to the more natural blondes and balayage. During that time I was scouted by Labiosthetique (2018) to become their balayage educator where I flourished and found a new love for mentoring. “ In 2019 Kitty took a leap of faith and started freelancing at Usfin Atelier. 2 months after she opened her business, COVID lockdown happened in Sydney. Opening a business is hard enough but during a pandemic came with its own struggles emotionally and financially. This week we talk all about Kittys journey through the industry, the challenging times that 2020 brought for a new business owner and all the tips she learnt along the way As someone who as recently gone freelance this episode packed a punch. I learned so much and appreciated Kittys raw and real conversation about her journey.  Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

It was my absolute honour to sit down this week with the one and only Sam Villa, Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of Sam Villa and Global Artistic Ambassador for Redken Sam was an open book and shared his journey through the industry with me. We spoke about the hair show that changed his life as well as the one he wasn&#39;t so proud of.  Sam is changing the industry, one hairdresser at a time. Whether teaching face-to-face in small hands-on classes, on main stage, or reaching his millions of social media followers. Sam’s talents stretch far beyond his brilliant cutting and finishing skills; he has a plethora of business skills that encourage stylists to think about how they speak to their guests to add value behind the chair. He is a true messenger sharing his knowledge with stylists in hopes that they too will share with others to enrich the industry…for which he was named the 2020 International Hair Influencer of the Year at the International Hairdressing Awards. Sam is such a character has the most genuine and infectious personality. I couldn&#39;t get enough out of our conversation. @samvillahair@colourbycrys@un_foiled Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations'>https://redcircle.com/the-successful-stylist-un-foiled/donations</a>

WE ARE BACK ! … And hopefully better than ever 😂 When I started editing the second season of UN-FOILED I knew there was no one better for the premier episode than Mrs. Tayor Logan. My mission with this podcast has always been to crush the stigma around hairdressing and prove that we are so much more than “just hairdressers” Taylor is the epitome of what I am trying to prove. At 19, Taylor gave up a Presidential scholarship at Mercer University to pursue her dreams as a hairdresser. She trained under and assisted the renowned Candy Shaw for a year and half before getting onto the floor at Jamison Shaw Hairdressers and establishing her own clientele. Taylor has now been the top producer at Jamison Shaw, a 50 chair salon, for the last 3 years. She has also received the title of “Most Focused Employee” and recently earned “MVP Employee” in 2020 among her peers. She has been traveling with Sunlights balayage, nationally and internationally, teaching students at hair shows in the classroom, in the booth, and on stage. Her passion for education has led her to train assistants at Jamison Shaw for over 4 years, all while juggling a double book (taking two or more clients at a time) in the salon. Did you even know that was possible !? Its an episode you will have to hear to believe this week on the season premiere of Successful Stylist, UN-FOILED.

Are you a hairdresser or barber?

Do you want to take your career to the next level but unsure how ?

I want to have candid conversations with likeminded people within the hair and beauty industry. Hairdressers who have had success not only behind the chair but in another aspect of their career. The platform artists, educators, brand sponsored , TV and celebrity hairdressers, self employed and salon owners. Im talking to the movers and shakers in our industry and asking HOW they’ve done it.I will be asking the questions we all want to know, breaking down and simplifying the processes to making those dreams you have more attainable.
