ADEM

Director

I’m the team leader at Valentino’s Hair Design and I lead by example.

I am humorous and love interacting with people. My wife Cilla and I own and operate Valentino’s. I have been in the industry for over forty years and I’m still as passionate about hairdressing as when I started at sixteen years old.

My motto has always been – take the time and do it right. This has stood me in good stead and would like to think that’s why my clients and my staff have all been extremely loyal to me.

I specialize in cutting and I love to see people happy and comfortable about themselves when they leave the salon.

I have been in the industry for over thirty years.

I originally trained at Valentino’s Hair Design at the age of nineteen.  After completing my training I decided to spread my wings and widen my experiences for a few years and worked elsewhere. Now that i have returned I love working back at Valentino’s, with Adem and the team.

I specialise in cutting, styling and colouring and enjoy learning the latest techniques.  I am always enthusiastic and excited creating beautiful bridal hair-ups.
