Her prize-winning work has changed the way hairdressing apprentices are trained, and has also introduced a new online sustainable salon certification for salons and stylists.

Denise said:

“Acting on our recommendations, hairdressers are now taught to shampoo once instead of twice, which is a massive saving in water and energy.”
