Meet the team

I moved to York in February 2000 and have made it my home. I have a real passion for hair and love all things from big colour change ups and cuts, to subtle toners and trims. I love short hair and also work with a lot of curly haired clients, this is something I feel my client base has grown with over the last few years. I love everything that owning this salon brings, the special staff members I’ve met over the years and the fantastic clients that have graced my chair. I work hard to make sure that whether you are a new client, or one of my regular clients every appointment is your moment to feel special and have much deserved “you” time. Outside of the salon I am a mum to two fantastic kids and a huge gym junkie. Bit of a crazy fact about me is my love of country music it is my guilty pleasure. I also love quotes my favourite quote at the moment “Dance a little every morning before you leave the house, it changes the way you step out into the world.”

I’m Laura, the face behind LW Sports and Holistic massage here at Liberty. I’ve worked for many years as a sports therapist. Learning the basics of massage, I felt I wanted to learn and understand more in-depth the issues associated with muscular issues and how to treat and rehabilitate people, so 10 years ago, I trained in sports therapy. Throughout my work as a sports therapist, I recognised that mental health was becoming more of an integral part of my practice and I developed a deep interest in mental health and the effects it can have on an individual not just mentally but physically and the impact this has on day to day life. This naturally led me to train in therapeutic counselling, I now split my time working in sports and massage therapy and in therapeutic counselling.

My name is Alex I’m the nail technician at this amazing salon. I specialise in biab, acrylic, gel nails, nail art, callus removal and henna brows. Anyone who knows me, knows I love the dark and wonderful world of gothic style and witchcraft, but please don’t let that put you off. I love to be creative and my style shows that. I have a vast array of skills when it comes to my nail designs, ranging from colours to French manicure to bespoke hand painted nail art. Check out my socials for examples of my work and to book an appointment, I can’t wait to hear from you soon.

Hi, my name is Brooke. I am a trainee at Liberty and I love being in the hair and beauty industry, it is something I have dreamed of since i was little. I am passionate about hair and I love being creative, clients let me put those skills to use. I am growing in confidence in my hair skills, and I am always eager to learn more. Along with hair I also enjoy 60s, 80s and 90s music, I also really enjoy doing fun activities such as shopping and visiting friends. I am enjoying my time working at Liberty Hair and I love the way Debbie pushes me to do things that I lack confidence in. Check out our socials for our monthly updates.
