Hear Me, See Me. Podcast. Sally Brooks. Hairdresser of the Year.


The award-winning Brooks & Brooks team are one of the most dynamic teams in British  hairdressing. Led by owners Sally Brooks and Jamie Brooks, the central London salon is a  mecca for passion, education and creativity.  


The business partners met when they both worked at the Trevor Sorbie salon in Covent Garden, before opening their eponymous salon in Holborn 17 years ago. Sally initially wanted  to be a make-up artist when she left school and won Student of the Year on her theatrical  make-up course (her first taste of awards!) 

Since opening their salon, Sally and Jamie have won numerous awards including London  Hairdresser of the Year three times, Most Wanted Directional Look and Sally was a nominee for 2018, 2019 and 2020 Most Wanted Hair Icon. In fact, since opening the team have won  more than 30 awards for their incredible creativity.  


Sally’s passion is to mentor young hairdressers and she has worked with Sophia Hilton when  she won Newcomer of the Year, as well as current proteges Grace Dalgleish (Most Wanted  It Girl) and Marlon Hawkins (Most Wanted It Boy finalist). Jamie is an incredible  entrepreneur and his business acumen is second to none.  

The business partners regularly judge international competitions, including British  Hairdressing Awards, Australian Hair Fashion Awards and Norwegian Hair Awards.  

Sally, Jamie and the team have presented at shows including the final presentation at the  L’Oreal Colour Trophy UK and Ireland, as well as numerous international shows and events.

Sally was crowned 2017 and 2018 British Hairdresser of the Year, the first female  hairdresser to be nominated for and win the title since 2006. She was also nominated for  the title in 2019 and won it again in 2020. She was presented Fellowship Hairdresser of the  Year for 2019/2020. 

In 2019 she wrote and produced a documentary about the hairdressing industry which was  released in 2019. The Journey To My Destination is available on DVD and Amazon Prime  Video.
