About Us
Meet Amanda
Master Curl Artist
Our business evolved with me first (Amanda) who has loved curly hair since I was a child. I began my hair career later & realised blow drying & straightening every day, all day was not going to work because of previous RSI injuries (Yes, crazily I still went into hairdressing). I realised there was more to be learnt in the world of hair, so why not indulge my love of curls?! Twelve years ago, this is just what I did.
- In 2013 I became a Deva Inspired Advanced Stylist. This course was my light bulb moment. It was when it all came together for me.
- In 2014 I joined a group CHA (Curly Hair Artistry), an astonishingly passionate collection of Curly Hair Artists in the world and have attended 2 CHA symposiums (Detroit, 2014 and Washington DC, 2015) to further advance my skills in all types of curly hair from wavy through to super curly.
- In March 2018 I became Australia’s first and only Deva Certified Stylist.
- In June 2019 I completed the Cut It Kinky class, working with tight curls & coils. Working with tight curls, kinks & coils gives me complete joy.
- In February 2020, I completed Rezo certification.
- In 2020, I also completed NBR education (extensions).
- In 2021, I become a Certified Innersense Organic Beauty Educator.
- In 2024, I completed the Adored Signature Handtied extensions course for curly hair extensions.
- In 2024, I also completed further education with Cut It Kinky working with tight curls.
Meet Peter
Hydration Specialist
Like Amanda, my journey to hair started later in life and was a complete 180 from what I was doing! Amanda’s business was starting to evolve and it was evident she needed a right hand man – I needed a new direction, so she got me hooked on curly hair and the rest is history!
I have been trained by Amanda Rickman of Purely Curls, Australia and Ron Suriano of Moisture Salon, New York. I have been a hydrationist for 10 years and successfully trained over 150 Australian hairstylists in that time.
I completed further hydration education with Southern Curl in Atlanta and with Evan Joseph in New York. I have also completed the Cut It Kinky tight curl Wash n Styling education.
My passion is to help curlies to achieve the best results they can through the art of hydration and correct product application.
