she/her

The Jade to Ella&Jade, Alannah is the Salon Director, the Leading Colour Technician and the colour in the cheeks of Ella&Jade. With her Master Colour Degree Alannah’s focus is to understand how emerging trends and individual products intersect with the authentic individual sitting in her chair. 

Alannah’s ability to bring together and further train an award-winning team, is at the heart of Ella&Jade’s success. It speaks to her unique history in the hair industry. Having been on the floor of the family-owned salon since the age of 14 and having travelled and trained extensively outside of Australia since then, Alannah was in a unique position when she took over ownership of Ella&Jade. She wanted to both honour the salons long history of community-care, but also push her clients experience further, delivering bespoke, healthy and fashion-forward hair in a luxurious and relaxing space.

Every Human, Every Hair is what Alannah and her team at Ella&Jade are all about. Inclusivity is at the core of everything that she does, this leading the brand to become one of Australia’s first texture inclusive hair hubs. “As a stylist first and foremost, I always wanted to be able to do anybody’s hair that walked through the door. If I didn’t know how, I immediately found somebody to learn from” Alannah’s passion is arming stylists with the fundamental skills and understanding for hair colour, so that no matter the canvas or the hairs texture they’re confident to service the client. This is turn has strengthened the Ella&Jade brand as clients look to Ella&Jade as the team to help them on their hair journey, no matter the texture. 

She knows that colour can transform anybody’s look; mastering how to match skin tone, compliment bone structure, creating illusions through adding volume or shrinking shapes, are all elements that she incorporates into her colour work every day. To help someone find their authenticity, their unique colour thumbprint, nothing is more powerful.
