Hair Loss Awareness Month is a good reminder that as hairdressers, we're often the first to spot the signs, long before a client says anything themselves.

At Inspire, we were lucky to have join us and talk us through what to look out for behind the chair, and how to have those conversations with clients sensitively and confidently.

Have you ever had this conversation with a client? Or is it something you'd love more guidance on? Tell us below 👇

Ten years ago, Lisa Curtis stood on the Inspire stage collecting the Bridal Hair Stylist of the Year award, in her first year of styling brides. This year, she was back as an educator and exhibitor. "A real pinch me moment," she calls it.

But the story in between is the one that matters. Before bridal styling, Lisa had stepped back from hairdressing to raise her children and lost her confidence along the way. Joining the FHA in 2014 changed that. "I was soon welcomed with open arms to a community where everyone supported each other. I no longer felt alone, I felt part of something."

That award kickstarted a bridal specialism, an education platform with 45+ tutorials, and a career built on the community that helped her find her way back in.
