No mum left behind at HairCollab!
What happens when four talented hairstylists, a shared dream and years of friendship come together? You get HairCollab – a fab Cliftonville salon that’s celebrating its first year.
Founded by Clare Thomson, Elize Spencer, Gemma Harker and Hayley Elliot, HairCollab was born from a simple but powerful idea. After becoming mums, the four friends wanted to return to the careers they loved, but on terms that worked for family life too. So, they created their own salon, a place where flexibility, friendship and fantastic hairdressing go hand in hand.
Their motto? No mum left behind.
One year on, they’ve built much more than a salon. They’ve created a welcoming community for clients and a business that proves motherhood and career don’t have to be at odds.
