Over the past few years Akin Konizi and his team have become a force to be reckoned with. And while it seems that success has come relatively quickly, Akin has been working tirelessly for the past 25 years.
He started his apprenticeship in 1979 at Alan International in London, and loved nothing more than working with the old techniques. "I initally wanted to be a fashion designer but after working at my cousin's salon, I was hooked on hairdressing," he explains.
He set up Hair on Broadway with his best friends Paul Simbler and Clive Collins in 1983 - and the rest, as they say, is history. "We were disheartened with working in London so chose to open our business in the suburbs. We only recently returned to the capital with our academy in Camden Town and salon in Baker Street."
In 2001, Akin won HJ's Eastern Hairdresser of the Year and later went on to win 2005 London Hairdresser of the Year before being crowned with the ultimate accolade, 2008 British Hairdresser of the Year. His precision cutting and beautiful imagery have made him one of the most sought-after stylists of his generation.
Here are some of Akin's favourite images that have defined his career to date.
