With over 18 years in the industry and a degree in Education and Training, Chloe is the visionary behind We Are Salon. As a specialist in blonde services and complex colour correction, she combines technical excellence with a deep commitment to inclusivity. Chloe leads the salon’s textured hair education and is passionate about empowering both clients and the next generation of stylists. Named Textured Hair Stylist of the Year, Chloe is a multi-award-winning industry leader who champions community outreach, education, and meaningful change in the salon sector.

When she’s not in the salon, Chloe lives life to the fullest. A keen netball player, coach and umpire, she also loves paddleboarding, hiking, mountaineering and mushroom and plant foraging. Whether travelling the world or exploring Europe with husband Col, dog Basil, and their beloved camper van Big Brenda, Chloe brings the same energy and curiosity to life as she does to her work. At her cosy home by the sea, she enjoys nurturing her rescue hens and her flourishing permaculture garden.

With a decade of experience in the industry, Lewis is a creative force at We Are Salon. Specialising in precision cutting, vivid colour work, and clipper techniques, his artistry and attention to detail make him a go-to for clients seeking bold, bespoke styles.

As Salon Manager, Lewis plays a vital leadership role—overseeing daily operations, mentoring the team, and fostering a supportive, forward-thinking environment. His commitment to continuous learning sees him regularly attending advanced training courses, where he refines his technical skills and remains at the cutting edge of hairdressing. His passion for the craft has earned him a strong reputation for originality and personalised client experiences.

Beyond the salon, Lewis draws inspiration from his spiritual path as a practicing Nichiren Buddhist, living with intention and using his platform to promote kindness, connection, and positive change. His love of art and body ink is reflected in his growing collection of tattoos—each one a unique piece by local artists that tells a story. At home, Lewis shares life with his two beloved dogs, Nellie and Freddie. Whether it’s a walk along the beach or exploring nature together, their peaceful, grounded lifestyle beautifully balances Lewis’s high-energy creative work in the salon.

With over 21 years of experience, Hayley is a highly skilled stylist known for her expertise in classic styling, precision cutting and wedding hair. Her calm, reassuring presence and eye for detail make her a favourite among clients seeking polished, timeless looks—particularly for bridal and special occasions. Hayley works part-time to balance her thriving career with a full and vibrant family life. As a devoted mum to Freya and Oscar, she’s deeply involved in supporting her children’s passions, from rugby and football to competitive CrossFit. Her nurturing spirit extends into the salon, where she brings warmth, patience, and care to not only every appointment but her colleagues too. Hairdressing runs in the family—Hayley was inspired by her mother, also a hairdresser, and the two share a close bond that continues to shape Hayley’s love for the craft. This connection to her roots adds depth and meaning to her work, as she honours the legacy passed down to her.

Outside of the salon, Hayley and her family embrace the outdoor lifestyle. They join Chloe and Col for getaways in their campervan Sirius, where evenings are spent around the campfire, and days are filled with hiking, exploring, and creating memories. One standout adventure was climbing Snowdon—a proud achievement made even more special by Hayley overcoming her fear of heights. With her wealth of experience and kind, steady nature, Hayley continues to be a much-loved and valued member of the We Are Salon team.

Beatrice – Graduate Stylist

Beatrice, or Bea as she’s fondly known, is already making her mark at We Are Salon with her love of bold, vivid colours and creative cutting. As a Level 3 apprentice and fully qualified Level 2 stylist, she is steadily building a loyal client base who appreciate her flair, attention to detail, and vibrant personality. Bea is a passionate advocate for giving back. Having sadly lost her mum to breast cancer, she has channelled her grief into action—organising fundraisers for Breast Cancer Now, a charity that supports both research and families in their most difficult time. Her empathy and drive to help others are at the core of everything she does.

When she’s not in the salon, you’ll likely find 20 year old Bea crocheting and reading—often at the same time! A multitasker through and through, she brings this same energy and creativity to her work behind the chair. Now a proud holder of her driver’s licence, Bea has big dreams to explore the UK and plans to embark on a 6-month adventure across Asia—a journey fully supported by her salon family. One of three sisters, Bea embraces her feminine energy and proudly owns the title of “girly girl’s girl.” She’s the team’s ultimate hype woman, always ready with words of encouragement, a bright smile, and infectious positivity. Bea’s journey is only just beginning, and her warmth, resilience, and creativity make her a cherished part of the We Are team.

Now in her fourth year of hairdressing and having recently achieved her Level 3 qualification, Rhiannon is quickly establishing herself as a rising star at We Are Salon. Known for her talent in balayage and contemporary colour work, she has developed a loyal following drawn to her soft, seamless finishes and artistic eye. Rhiannon is more than just a skilled stylist—she’s also the creative mind behind our social media, managing content, tracking trends, and ensuring our online presence reflects the quality and diversity of our work. Her keen visual style and natural flair for digital storytelling have helped grow our online community and showcase the salon’s creativity and playfulness to a wider audience. At just 22, Rhiannon demonstrates maturity well beyond her years, shaped in part by overcoming significant challenges during her childhood. Her focus, resilience and determination to excel in her career are an inspiration to the team.

Outside of work, Rhiannon and her partner Jake enjoy camping trips, family time, and are currently saving to buy their first home together. She’s also a lover of fantasy literature and is a proud cat mum, to Marvin and Gavin. With her drive, creativity and compassion, Rhiannon is an integral part of the We Are Salon family and a bright talent to watch.
