Hair texture
Zoltan has over 24 years experience in hairdressing as an all rounder, and for 15 years he is offering permanent hair straightening, Keratin treatments since 2006, and perming since the 90's. In the past 10 years he has been focusing on hair repairing and conditioning, and to reduce home styling time, as well as extend the lifetime your blow dries with a frizz free look. Zoltan has been reviewed by most major UK Magazines.
He will aim to:
Dramatically reduce styling time usually to ten minutes
Create frizz-free, rain-proof, shiny, conditioned looks
Increase or decrease volume
Create root lift, body waves or restructure your curls
Make your hair to be picture ready on holidays
Create sleek straight hair, or bouncy curls and anything in between
Zoltan tailors every treatment to his customers specific needs after a thorough consultation to his ever growing international clientele.
Three Decades In. Still Learning.
Mastery of this craft is built behind the chair — hands in hair, understanding what every product actually does, day after day, year after year. But the chair only teaches you so much on its own. The knowledge accumulates elsewhere: in conversations at trade fairs in the US and across Asia, in Bologna — where I'm a regular — several times a year, every year. I've invested heavily, and happily, in keeping up. Without both, none of this would exist.
And I've been lucky in one more way: London. Every hair texture on earth walks through this city — and through my salon. Every day brings a new challenge, and challenge is exactly what a technician needs to grow. Few places in the world offer that education.
I travel because that's where the industry actually lives. It's where I meet the global manufacturers face to face — the factories behind the products and the tools, in different corners of the world.
Those relationships have taken me further than most stylists ever go. I've launched my own products. I've walked the floors of the factories where professional haircare is made, and sat down with the cosmetic chemists and formulators who actually create it. I've visited the plants that build the electrical tools of our trade — including the factory where GHD straighteners were originally made. I've developed my own digital perming machine and launched systems of my own.
Not because I had to. Because texture is a genuine obsession of mine.
"Plenty of people know more than me. I've just gone and looked for myself — the factories, the chemists, the machines. You learn a lot by showing up. And I've enjoyed every mile and every penny of it." — Zoltan

What they say
“Zoltan is the undisputed King of the Keratin treatments. He has made me fall in love with my hair again after I had been damaging it for years with inadequate harsh treatments and straightening.”
— Alessandra Steinherr, Beauty Director, Glamour UK

— Nadine Baggott, Health and Beauty Editor, Hello! Magazine, ITV Beauty Presenter
