My Stylist and Me: Charlie Miller exhibition at Ocean Terminal

THERE is a bond that exists between a client and their hairdresser that sometimes cannot be fulfilled by anyone else. There is a trust that covers many different things.

Charlie Miller, one of Edinburgh’s top hairdressing companies, has launched its ‘My Stylist & Me’ photo exhibition in the Image Collective Gallery on the second floor at the Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre.

The vision to explore the salons’ diversity in clientele and highlight the rock-solid bonds and personal relationships that have evolved, was celebrated at a drink’s reception in the gallery with some of the 26 participating stylists, their clients and other invited guests.

Jason Miller, joint managing director, said: “We are delighted to showcase some real-life client hairdressing and to collaborate with Ocean Terminal shopping centre on this exhibition.

“Working in the hair industry, you get to meet a lot of clients with their own styles, personalities, quirks and habits. As a hairdresser, it is our job to correctly interpret their needs and make sure we give them exactly what they are looking for. This exhibition is a reflection of our ways of seeing, being and doing and the end experience.”

The exhibition of 26 individual images runs throughout December 2018 and January 2019.
