\\n
\\nWoman around the world are beginning to embrace their natural textured hair again, and this is seeing the rise of the dry haircutting technique. Leading the way specialising in this niche of haircutting is Sydney based hairdresser, Tara Walker, owner of her independent salon business, Mousey Browne. In todays podcast we learn all about the techniques of dry haircutting, and why you need to be offering this service to your clients. If you don't, then you could be left behind from your competitors!
\\n
\\nAs someone who specialises in dry haircutting, Tara has made a name for herself in the curly hair community. She is known for creating killer haircuts on all hair types, especially curly hair. I believe cutting hair this way is like Marmite: you either love it or hate it. But in talking to Tara today, I'm excited and converted to the endless creative possibilities dry haircutting can give us, and the revenue this could also bring to our hairdressing businesses. It can't be ignored ... love it or hate it!
\\n
\\nAt the age of 14, armed with a pair of her mum's old hairdressing scissors, a lot of enthusiasm and zero training, Tara started cutting her Dad\\u2019s hair in her parent\\u2019s garage. \\xa0Working in high-end salons, boutique salons and barber shops, both nationally and internationally, Tara moved back to Sydney in 2013 and started her very own hair cutting shop called Mousey Browne, which is located in the cool inner-city suburb of Surry Hills, Sydney.
\\n
\\nThe Mousey Browne concept is all about \\u201cminimum fuss, maximum impact hair \\u2013 that you know how to wear\\u201d.
\\n
\\nTara is now passing on her skills to the hairdressing community \\u2013 something she offers loads of in todays episode. She hosts dry hair cutting education events and look-and-learns sessions and hands on workshops from her salon and in other salons around Australia. As she says:\\xa0\\u201cThe trick to cutting curly hair is\\u2026 You need to create enough organised chaos, so that the curls can find a home.\\u201d
