Yolanda Shillingford - Hair stylist

Yolanda is the director of Shillingford Theatrical Special Effects Hair & Media Makeup Mobile Salon. Her hairdressing career started when at fifteen and she trained and qualified as a unisex all-rounder hairdresser. At age Twenty Two I started barber trims and combining the two found both to be very therapeutic. As her skills developed Yolanda decided she’d like to open a salon. She attended to college, followed by a university course to study BA Hons Psychosocial Studies with Professional Studies. The course taught her a lot about the relationship between individual and society and helped her understand customer service. She stayed in education and enrolled on a Beauty Therapy Course. Her interest in beauty did not stop there and she became a volunteer in the college salon doing Beauty Therapy and Hairdressing, gaining customer service experience, business knowledge and other skills. After qualifying from a Theatrical Special Effects Hair & Media Makeup course she received her first media award for Outstanding Makeup. Following an NHS Film, she was invited to work behind the scenes at the African Bridal fashion show to style hair for runway models. She has continued to work on a multitude of fashion and hair related events. Yolanda is enjoying being a hairstylist for Extreme Modelling Experience. EME recognises every person as a unique individual whose talents as well as beauty must be seen and appreciated. It is this quality that will make EME a success to become a household name. I am also looking forward to the fusion of hair & makeup fashion to the fashion designer collections that create an outstanding and Extreme Modelling Experience.
