Art Atttack




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.
