Get to Know Us
A Team of creative stylists, headed by Olivia
I took over the salon in 2003 from my Uncle, Roy and have grown a loyal clientele, built a lovely salon and an amazing team, but that is not the start of the story...
I was born to be a hairstylist, literally! My Mum worked here, with my Uncle when she was pregnant with me so I have always felt like this shop was my home. I first worked here as a Saturday girl aged 11, but didn't decide to do hairdressing until I was 19, when I started my apprenticeship with my Uncle. He passed on his skill of precision cutting, long hair work and gave me a thorough foundation of classic hairdressing. Once qualified I moved away to work for a local salon chain and worked my way up to become an elite stylist and trainer in their flagship store.
At this time, Roy decided to retire and asked me to return with a view to continuing the salon. Since then the salon has been improved both inside and out, the team has grown in number as well as in skill. We are now recognised as the go to salon for colour in Southport.
I also educate nationally for Sebastian Professional in product knowledge and cutting. I have also been a national educator for colour travelling to other salon to keep their colour knowledge up to date.
I love sharing knowledge with clients and other stylists and as a team we work together closely to give our clients their best hair ever.
I am really proud of what my team and I have achieved over the years, many of my stylists have worked with me for over 10years, we all share a passion for hair and helping people feel great. We would love to help you too.
Our Team
Olivia C
Salon Owner
I take pride in all our clients being 100% happy with their hair after a visit to our salon. I expect all my team to offer you the same, let me introduce them...
Amanda
Assistant Manager
I have been a professional Hairdresser since 2006 and joined the Olivia C Team in 2008, |I have recently been promoted to Assistant Manager.
I don't see Hairdressing as a job, I see it as a way of life. I work to high standards and my focus is to make sure my clients (who become my friends) receive my 100% attention, whilst they re in my company.
My passion is colouring hair, from simple maintenance to complete colour changes. I love making clients feel like a million dollars when they leave!
Paula
Receptionist
I have been the receptionist at Olivia C since 2006, I started just working Fridays and Saturdays for many years but as the salon expanded and got busier I now work four days a week.
I excel in customer service and totally love interacting with our fabulous clients.
In a world of online everything, please pick up the phone for friendly and professional advice for your hair. I can make you appointment or give you product advise and recommend the best stylist to suit you.

I have been qualified since 1998, I love making clients feel good about their hair, it gives me a boost too! I like al aspects of hairdressing but I really enjoy doing Extensions.

Whe n I became a Mummy two my lovely girls I wanted to spend my time at home so I decided to leave being an educator and work three days in salon, which I really look forward to.
Our Senior Stylists
Hannah
I've been with Olivia C since 2012. I started as a Saturday Girl and fell in love with watching all the girls doing hair, so much so, I decided to start my apprenticeship. I qualified in 2015.
The whole concept of being a hairdresser I love, the problem solving (hair related and otherwise), making clients feel great about themselves, giving them chance to relax and take some time out of their everyday life and helping them achieve their dream hair!
Being part of the Olivia C Team really is amazing!
Aleks
I've been part of the Olivia C team since 2015 and I love every day of it!
I started my adventure when I was looking for a placement, I needed to do 100 hours to achieve my advanced qualification. Just as I completed my course, one of the team fell pregnant and I was asked to cover the maternity leave and I never left!! I fell in love with the place, the people; both staff and clients (I think they love me too!!) and I became part of the Olivia C family.
I look forward to you becoming part of it too so book a consultation and start your very own journey with us too.
Our Stylist and Junior Stylist
Kamila Stylist
I've been working at Olivia C since 2017, I have started as an apprentice and worked my way up to being a Junior Stylist as I've learnt all my skills with the help of the girls in the team. I love hairdressing, especially colouring and styling to create an amazing finish on the hair. I love seeing clients walking out with a big smile on their face!
Layla Junior Stylist
I love being able to create beautiful hair for clients and help to make them feel amazing! I aspire to become better and better at what I do and eventually become the best hairdresser that I can possibly be. I adore cutting short hair and meeting new people. It makes me happy being able to make them feel better then how they walked in!
