Andy Smith
Partner; Art Director; Wella Guest Stylist
Since beginning my career in 1998, and through much dedication and hard work I have achieved many accolades within the industry. These include Head of the Nirvana Artistic Team; a complete portfolio for both Tony and Guy and Wella; photo shoots for trade, consumer and high profile society magazines; and a photo shoot for Versace. I am also within a handful of top hairdressers in the country who have been named a Wella Master Colour Expert, which enables me to constantly stay in touch with the up and coming trends in London. I am constantly working hard to ensure a busy schedule for our art team, including regular photo shoots together with all of our salons and on location. I also work for the World’s no.1 in professional hair care: ‘Wella Professionals’ as a guest stylist in the London and Manchester Studios, teaching stylists from all over the U.K. Wella's techniques and visions for the future in our industry. (There are only three members in the team from across the U.K!) Most recently, I have been selected to join the Sebastian Cult Art Team; an exclusive group of 6 stylists from all over the country.
Through the years of working for Nirvana I have helped make important decisions regarding the business, working to moving the company from strength to strength, which I have now become a partner of with entrepreneur Tim Swain and wife Victoria. Together we strive to ensure excellence in every part of the business and with the vision of expanding, you never know there could be a new Nirvana salon opening nearer to you in the near future so watch this space! |

Hi I’m Bradley also known as loud mouth. I have been hairdressing since 2002. I specialise in colouring, cutting and hair up - i.e. proms and wedding hair. I am good at talking, slightly too much at time’s. I love my job and all the creative thing’s involved with it. I have worked my way through Nirvana and am now the top stylist of the chichester branch. I like a challenge, and will offer you fabulous service and a cheeky smile every time you visit the salon. |

I have worked for Nirvana for 12 years, both in our Waterlooville and Fareham branch, and have seen the salon grow from strength to strength.
The world of hair is very fast moving and the great thing about working at Nirvana is that we attend courses and to keep up with the trend. I enjoy learning latest techniques and am proud to be part of such an amazing team.

I have been in the industry since 2004, in this time I have had a break from the hair industry to follow a career within Portsmouth Hospitals, however sitting behind a desk all day does not compare to working in a salon! I Joined Nirvana in 2008 as a Senior Stylist and really enjoy working here! There is a great atmosphere within the salon and the team all get on really well. I have completed a Wella Creative Cutting course and a Pure Blonde Training course. We are always doing promotions to benefit our customers, so hopefully you will go ahead and book an appointment!!! |

Maria Sharpe
Beauty Therapist
I have been in the beauty industry since 1997 and in this time I have had breaks from the industry, one of which was working for a high street bank, but realised my heart was still with beauty therapy so when I began my career with Nirvana it gave me the opportunity to be in an expanding team who are dedicated. I am constantly learning new treatments so I can offer my clients an extensive treatment menu. |

I have been a Beautician since 1988. I joined Nirvana in 1997. The salon has a really lovely feel to it, all my clients feel relaxed, extremely pampered and totally de-stressed. My favourite treatments are the Decleor facials where the clients can unwind whilst listening to soothing music, and waxing which always produces fantastic results! We offer a range of beauty treatments like Fake Tan, facials, waxing, nails, massages, pedicures and manicures and a lot more. |
