Meet the Team

NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. Samantha founded Samantha Elizabeth Hair Salon in November 2016. She strives for perfection in her salon which is why she is constantly evolving and searching for the new inspiration. She gives extensive trade tests to ensure the very best quality services in her Salon. She has a variety of skills sets and appealing to all ages. She is rigid in training her team and giving every client an exceptional salon experience not just a hair cut. This shows in the growing team and client base, she has built. Samantha works Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays and has one Saturday off a month.

Louise joined the company in 2018 as an apprentice and quickly proved her talent. After qualifying in November 2020, she steadily rose through the ranks to become a Senior Stylist. In March 2025, Louise achieved an impressive 97% pass mark in the prestigious Wella Colour Expert Programme, solidifying her expertise in the field. Known for her exceptional skills, Louise is a highly talented stylist with a passion for all aspects of hairdressing, especially colour. From babylights to balayage, Louise is a true colour queen, and it’s this expertise that led us to support her in pursuing the Wella Colour Degree. Louise's availability: Tuesday to Saturday She works 3 Saturdays per month (book in advance, as her Saturdays fill up fast!)

Eleanor joined the team on 6th January 2026 and is an all-rounder in hairdressing with a love for all things colour — Balayage being her passion. Having recently relocated from Stevenage, we’re thrilled she’s chosen us and excited to support her continued education in this exciting industry. Eleanor works Tuesday - Saturday She works 3 Saturdays per month

Travis joined the salon in May 2021 as an apprentice and has been turning heads ever since. A true people person, he’s known for his warm personality and exceptional customer care — making every client feel like royalty from the moment they sit in his chair. He achieved a Distinction, the highest possible grade, in his NVQ Level 2 Hairdressing qualification in July 2023, before progressing to NVQ Level 3, which he completed in October 2025. Always eager to develop his craft, Travis also trained at the prestigious Vidal Sassoon Academy in London in July 2025, completing an intensive five-day barbering course, an experience he absolutely loved. Travis has a particular talent for short haircuts and precision styling, combining technical skill with a sharp eye for detail to deliver consistently outstanding results. Working Hours: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Saturday Travis works three Saturdays per month — advance booking is recommended, as his Saturdays fill up fast!

Cydney joined Samantha Elizabeth in August 2022 and officially stepped onto the salon floor after completing her NVQ Level 2 on 14th August 2024. She began her NVQ Level 3 in September 2025, continuing to develop her skills and knowledge as she grows within the industry. In November 2025, Cydney attended the Wella London Studio, where she completed a specialist course in colour correction, further strengthening her expertise in advanced colour work. Cydney already excels in all colour applications and has a real passion for creating beautiful, tailored results for her clients. In October 2024, she also completed an intensive three-day balayage course, refining and perfecting her techniques. During her early NVQ Level 3 training, all of Cydney’s haircuts are checked by a senior team member. This ensures every client leaves happy while supporting Cydney as she continues to build confidence and experience. Please note that as Cydney is still perfecting her craft, appointments may take a little longer than usual. Thank you for your patience and support as she continues to grow into her full potential. Working days: Tuesday – Saturday Cydney has one Saturday off per month, so we recommend booking in advance as her Saturdays fill up quickly.
