Alert! Family matters in hairdressing so we agreed to a takeover by Alfie Jame who proposed interviewing mum Nicky Pope on her hairdressing history! Well, he knows her well enough to wheedle out the details that you may not know.
From starting out at Hairdressers Journal (features editor) to joining Your Salon (acting editor) to setting up Creative HEAD, then moving to launch Tribu-te Magazine in the UK, Nicky’s arguably the only journalist to work on or found so many hair titles. And events… don’t even get us started! Tribu-te Show, Colour World, Hairclublive, LAB evenings… it’s all part of the rich history you’ll hear on this podcast.
Meet the Pope
In this podcast, Alfie quizzes his mum on behalf of hairdressers everywhere. What does she think of changes in the industry? Where have we gained and where lost out? How do you build a longstanding reputation and what will be Nicky’s legacy? Listen as Alfie and Nicky swap anecdotes and advice… it’s a peek into the world of a magazine editor and hair show event organiser. Unmissable.
