About Ben Russell

Ben Russell is recognised throughout the global hairdressing industry for his strong foundations and knowledge in haircutting, dressing and hair colouring.

Ben’s career was born in Somerset and then fast-tracked in London. At the age of nineteen, Ben was working in a busy West End salon and teaching at an academy. It was this time in London where several industry-leading hairdressers mentored Ben during his five-year stint in London, which helped him achieve some of the top awards in the global industry.

Ben then moved to Melbourne, Australia and became part of the Australian FAME Team, which allowed him to travel to London, Paris and Rome to share is passion. After a three year stint in Melbourne, Ben left his salon manager role at one of Australia’s most respected hairdressers, as well as his loyal clientele, to head back to England and pursue his own dream of building a leading hair salon.
