Working from a dedicated room in her home to create own personal hair salon, she has not looked back since. Blackfingers London celebrated 7 years in business in April 2010. Since trading from home with a client base of 20, she has become an established and respected hair stylist with over 200 clients now on the books, working from a luxurious salon in South Woodford.

As the business has grown, so has her reputation, she has worked with numerous celebrities.
