Kris, how did you originally get into hairstyling?<\/strong> Who or what inspires your creations?<\/strong> Can you tell me a little bit about being a guest speaker at teen vogue university?<\/strong> What are your favorite styling products at the moment?<\/strong>
\nWhen I was 7 yrs old I went to a hair salon for the first time to watch my Mum getting her perm done. Within minutes I’d discovered my passion I just had to be a hairdresser. I was ready to leave school the next day to pursue my career\u2026 Obviously that was not going to happen!<\/em><\/p>\n
\nMy Kris Sorbie mannequin heads inspire me to create and and learn more. https:\/\/krissorbie.com\/product\/ks-long-head<\/a><\/em>
\n I\u2019m inspired by every day objects, nature, animal fur and beyond!<\/em><\/p>\n
\nIt was several years ago\u2026 a talk to open the minds of teenagers to consider the world of hairdressing as a career. We had an amazing response and one of our attendees actually did become a hairdresser!<\/em>
\n I wish I had known as a teenager that my chosen career would open so many doors and take me around the world\u2026 I would have worked harder! My advice to them was to take every opportunity that comes their way.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nRedken Guts 10 – VOLUME SPRAY FOAM, its the best product for root lift, hold and volume, I can\u2019t live without it!<\/em>
\n Redken Triple Take 32 – HIGHEST HOLD, NO CRUNCH, EXTREME HIGH-HOLD HAIRSPRAY, I love it for up-styling.<\/em><\/p>\n
