Westrow Wetherby
Renowned for: super session skills
2011 highlights: I have enjoyed a great year and have worked on a few really exciting projects,including travelling to Milan with Steve Rowbottom to recreate
some of our signature Westrow styles for more than 500 Italian hairdressers. I also assisted Steve at the Professional Hairdresser Live show in Manchester Central, where we headed up the L’Oréal Professionnel platform, and most recently we worked together on the Vogue photoshoot for its September issue. On the education side, I have been working with Matthew (Sutcliffe) as one of the
H3 ambassadors for the North-East region, which has been great as we get to educate hairdressers from across the UK on current trend-led looks. The Westrow Creative Team is made up of people of all different strengths, which ensures the team is well-rounded and able to take on anything.

The Westrow Creative Team has been wowing the industry with their cool creations and innovation at a whole host of events recently.We ask them to tell us their highlights of 2011.
We start with Leanne Brown

Westrow Leeds (18 Thornton s Arcade/Harrogate)

Renowned for: Men’s hairdressing/teaching.

2011 highlights: mentoring the L’Oréal Professionnel ID Artist team (an initiative that offers progressive hairdressers a two-year talent development programme) has been one of the biggest. I worked with them for two-days in Manchester,
where I delivered my interpretation of L’Oréal’s A/W11 collection so that they could gain tips on how to deliver on stage for their showcase later this month. I have also enjoyed running my own courses at the L’Oréal academies as I come from a teaching background, having taught at Sassoon’s for 10 years. This year I headed up three Barbering courses in Leeds, Manchester and London and worked alongside Steve Rowbottom at his Contemporary Classics course in London.

WESTROW THE STORY

In 1986 Marc Westerman and Steve Rowbottom opened their first salon. They started the business so they could cut great hair and have fun doing it.
Their passion for hairdressing has lead to Westrow becoming one of the leading salon brands in the country, with seven salons throughout Yorkshire.This passion remains at the heart of the business, so much so that Westrow are more than hairdressers, they’re hairlovers.
Westrow is constantly in demand with celebrities, film and TV producers as well as major product companies within the hairdressing industry. At West Row you are as individual as the look we create for you.
