AT WORK WITH / LISA NGUYEN OF ENOUGH STUDIO

PLEASE TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF, YOUR BACKGROUND AND HOW YOU ARRIVED AT YOUR POSITION TODAY…

I received a private school education with a relatively strict upbringing and despite that, became a hairdresser anyway! I’ve poured my heart and soul into my job, because beyond the creativity of styling is the ability to create and foster relationships. I have been hairdressing for 15 years, ten of those years with a brand that I was (and still am) proud to be associated with. Enough is a dream that I have been living and breathing for many, many years.

The idea for the studio was born after many years of suffering painful chemical irritations and dermatitis on my hands as a hairdresser. I realised there was a huge problem in the industry – I didn’t feel comfortable using products that contained ingredients that were toxic and harm both customer and hairstylist. It took a toll on my health and I came close to leaving the industry after some terrible reactions to the products I had to use in the salon. I started researching alternatives and realised there was an opportunity to combine my passions for yoga, wellness and hair into a clean space and was born!
