Congratulations to Joseph Ferraro, who has been named ambassador for Authentic Beauty Concept.
Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Joseph has been based in the UK for 15 years, during which time, he’s developed a well-earned reputation as a creative, inspirational hairdresser with a generous approach to education.
Northern Hairdresser of the Year
Based in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, Joseph owns two eponymous salons, with a team of 15 stylists and colourists. As well as putting the area on the map with his acclaimed salons, Joseph confirmed his status as the regionâs go-to hair expert when he won North Eastern Hairdresser of the Year.

Away from his business, Joseph is dedicated to education and developing his skills across all areas of hairdressing. A former member of the Fellowship for British Hairdressingâs prestigious F.A.M.E. Team, Joseph continues to mentor young hairdressers through the organisationâs education evenings and live shows. Joseph also works backstage at London Fashion Week, and is a regular on shoots, shows and sets across the country.
Modern beauty
A skilled cutter and colourist, Josephâs work is all about effortless beauty with a gritty, modern edge â an aesthetic that reflects the combination of his Australian roots and Yorkshire home. This relaxed take on glamour and thoroughly modern approach to styling makes Joseph the ideal ambassador for Authentic Beauty Concept; a brand thatâs all about celebrating the individuality and imperfections with a no-filter, fresh-faced approach to beauty.

âAuthentic Beauty Concept is the perfect brand for me,â says Joseph. âIt truly reflects my approach to fresh, modern beauty and the honest, no-nonsense take on products feels refreshing and relevant. Iâm really looking forward to working with the range both in the salon and on set, and hope that I can inspire other stylists and salon owners to explore the range and create their own beautiful, modern hair.â
The perfect match we say!
