Andrew Fitzsimons got his start in hairdressing because he wanted a summer job, so his mum got him one at a local salon. After just one summer, the then 13 year old was hooked and decided this was the career for him. He left school, learnt the trade and then at 17 made his way to Paris where he worked on editorials and fashion shows. At 21, he flew to New York where fashion met celebrities and now he is the hair stylist to some of the biggest names in the world, including the Kardashian/Jenner family, Bella Hadid and Hailey Bieber to name but a few. But things have gotten even bigger for him, as this week, he has released his own hair care range in collaboration with Penneys, Andrew Fitzsimons x Primark.
Andrew and I chat about his beginnings, the hair care range and everything in between.
