Understand and Love Your Hair
No two heads of hair are the same, so why should every haircut or haircare routine be?
Whether you’re dealing with dryness, frizz, thinning hair, changing texture, curls, scalp concerns, or the effects of menopause, the answer is rarely more products. It’s understanding what’s happening with your hair and knowing how to care for it.
At Your Hair Coach, I combine expert cutting, personalised advice, and practical education, so you leave not only with beautiful hair but also with the confidence to care for it every day.
After 45 years of working with women’s hair, I’ve learned that the biggest transformation doesn’t come from changing your hair – it comes from understanding it.
Your hair has a story to tell.
My job is to help you understand it.

"I have NEVER ever felt this happy with my hair.
Chrissy made me feel very much at home, took the time to understand me, and what I wanted from my hair. She assessed the health of my hair, and what my hair naturally wants to do.
And then cut... what an awesome cut. Truly transformational... "

A Calm, Personal Hair Experience
For many women, a hair appointment is one of the few opportunities to slow down. My aim is to make that time as relaxing and restorative as the haircut itself.
From my peaceful home studio surrounded by nature, you’ll enjoy a private, one-to-one appointment with no busy salon, no constant noise, and no rushing to the next client: just one chair, one conversation, and my complete attention.
After 45 years of working with women’s hair, I’ve learned that beautiful hair begins with understanding it. Before I pick up my scissors, I take the time to learn how your hair naturally falls, its texture and condition, and how you want it to work for your lifestyle.
Every haircut is individually tailored – not just to flatter your face, but to make your hair easier to manage, healthier, and more enjoyable every day.
Because the best haircut isn’t the one that looks amazing when you leave the salon. It’s the one that still works beautifully weeks later.
My goal isn’t simply to cut your hair. It’s to help you understand it, love it, and enjoy a peaceful experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, confident, and completely yourself.
The Your Hair Coach Difference
Hair is deeply personal, and so is the way we care for it.
Every appointment is designed to help you understand your hair, simplify your routine and enjoy the freedom that comes from having healthy, manageable hair.
With over 45 years of experience, I combine expert hair knowledge with personalised care to create beautiful, lasting results that work with your lifestyle.
Because when you understand your hair, you don’t just change how it looks.
You change how you feel.
"Chrissy really listens to what you are wanting with your hair, and also recommends what would be good for it and how you can get it to look amazing! She has so many years of experience in hair cutting! I travel three hours to make sure I can have my hair cut from Chrissy now thats says it all in my option!"
