Across the pond
Joining us on screen from NYC… Vivienne Mackinder. In this episode Ellie Scott chats to Vivienne about her work with Vidal Sassoon and Trevor Sorbie, as well as life as an editorial hair stylist and how you nail that editorial eye.
Vivienne Mackinder
With a career spanning over 40 years, Vivienne has transformed the art of hairstyling, elevated professional education, and inspired generations of stylists across the globe.

Online Education
A visionary well ahead of her time, Vivienne launched one of the first-ever digital education platforms for hairdressers over two decades ago: VivienneMackinder.com (formerly HairDesignerTV.com). Today, the site features:
- Action-Based Learning™, her signature three-part learning process – Learn, Practice and Master, is a modern approach to discovery that blends technology and human interaction that transforms skills and confidence.
- 2,000+ Video Tutorials on cutting, coloring, styling, creativity & business
- Live Coaching & Mentorship
“Real growth comes from doing—not just watching,” Vivienne says. Her results-driven coaching outperforms decades of traditional workshops and stage shows—proving that true mastery is within reach for every stylist willing to learn.
