JEN WITH THE GREAT HAIR

ON EARLY DAYS

As a teenager, growing up in Utah, I was ob-sessed with Natalie Imbruglia’s hair in her Torn music video. A neat but wild and quirky bob. Actually, it’s more like a pixie cut. Alas, no-one could do it how I wanted so I ended up having a crack myself. It looked great. I’ve always enjoyed experimenting - if not on me, on my clients - even if it’s something as subtle as bangs.

ON CUTS AND COLOUR

Despite only having my sharp bob since 2017, it’s become my calling card. That said, I do let my stylist Anh Co Tran have a play around when I sit in his chair. He’s always encouraging me to do something different, which I’ve got to listen to, because I’m usually the one doing the convincing. I only trust one person to colour my hair and that’s Cassondra Kaeding in LA - she’s amazing.

THE SHAMPOO

Ouai Clean Shampoo, £22

Great hair starts with good shampoo. I sometimes use two different products in the shampoo process. Why? Because my hair at the root is different to the ends. Sometimes I need a cleansing formula and the roots (my Clean Shampoo), and a more hydrating one at the ends. Listen to your hair, people! Oh and when I’ve been heavy handed with product and I suspect there’s build up at my roots, I get right in there with a scrub, pre shampoo.

THE CONDITIONER

Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask with Rare Prickly Pear Seed Oil, £54

Just so nourishing. So health-giving. Makes my hair so soft to touch, and somehow stronger - I'm told it's the prickly pear.
