Larkhall Hairdressers Prepare to Showcase Talent at Paris Fashion Week
Two talented hairdressers from Larkhall are gearing up to showcase their skills on an international platform as they prepare to style models at the upcoming Paris Fashion Week. Lisa Rodger, the owner of L Perfection salon, and Eilidh Mawer, a senior stylist at the salon, have earned a coveted spot amongst the elite team of hairdressers who will be working behind the scenes at one of the most prestigious fashion events in the world.
Describing the opportunity as a dream come true, Lisa and Eilidh are thrilled to be part of the team that will create chic hairstyles for models gracing the catwalk in the French capital. With their journey to Paris set for March, the duo is already practising the intricate looks required for the runway, with encouragement pouring in from their loyal customers and colleagues at the Union Street salon.
Their entry into the international team came about when influential hairdressers noticed and appreciated the work showcased on the salon’s social media platforms. Following this, Lisa and Eilidh connected with the Paris Fashion Week organisers, studied training videos, and familiarised themselves with a range of styles specified for the event.
Eilidh, who started as a junior stylist at L Perfection six years ago and quickly rose through the ranks due to her exceptional talent, expressed her excitement about the upcoming experience. The preparation includes perfecting the assigned hairstyles, undergoing in-person training in Paris, and ultimately styling models for multiple shows each day during the fashion week.
Lisa, who has been in the hairdressing industry for two decades and founded her business nearly 12 years ago, highlighted the significance of this opportunity as a long-held dream. Working alongside her three sisters at the award-winning salon in Larkhall, Lisa shared her enthusiasm for the fast-paced and pressure-filled environment of the fashion week shows.
The news of Lisa and Eilidh’s participation in Paris Fashion Week has been met with widespread acclaim, with customers and well-wishers eagerly awaiting their success on the international stage. The L Perfection team is proud of the achievement, supporting the duo as they prepare for this career-defining experience. With their dedication, talent, and passion for hairstyling, Lisa and Eilidh are set to make a mark at Paris Fashion Week and shine amongst the best in the industry.
