Can you tell us a little more about you and your styling background?

Hi, I’m Annie Johnson and I’m from Sydney, Australia. Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always loved doing hair. My hairdressing career started over 20 years ago when I had my first job at a local salon. I was a “Saturday Girl” at the basin on the weekends while I was at school during the week. I loved hairdressing that much that when I was 15, I left school and started my apprenticeship. I worked in the salon for just over 10 years. And as time went by, I decided I wanted a change from working in a salon, but still wanted to do hair. So, I created my own business and started freelancing and doing weddings on the weekends. This enabled me to branch out into work I could dream of including TV, fashion and bridal shoots. 

I have never looked back. It’s definitely my dream job. I truly love what I do everyday!

What bridal trends are you loving right now?

There’s no doubt about it. I LOVE low braided buns and BIG textured ponys!!

What new trends can we look forward to?

  • Classic styles with unique Braids 
  • Statement accessories 
  • Beautiful Boho effortless looks
  • Big bouncy blow drys

How do you stay inspired?

Instagram! Over the past year I have connected with so many amazing stylists around the world who inspire me to unleash my creativity. I love how we all learn from each other and put our own spin on styles!! 

And I definitely set my alarms when there is a BTP Live on!  Thanks Angela for everything you do for the hair community!! xx

What advice would you give to a bridal hairstylist just getting started?

  • Never stop learning 
  • Have confidence and believe in yourself
  • Network and fill yourself around positive like minded people

Best advice to a bride regarding her hairstyle?

When choosing your desired look for your day, I highly recommend creating a mood board on Pinterest. Remember to find hairstyles that are similar length/colouring to your hair. This will give your hairstylist a better understanding of the look you’re after.

What is the one product/tool you can not live without?

It’s so hard to choose but I’m loving KYK MAGIC HAIR DUST at the moment and I wouldn’t  want to do anyones hair without it!!! 

If I had to pick a second, I also love my H2d curling wand.

Best advice you have ever been given in the hair industry? 

  • Believe in yourself and never doubt your skills. 
  • Work hard and stay humble

What do you love to do outside of work? 

My family is everything to me. I love watching my precious boys grow. I love my amazing supportive husband, traveling and seeing more of the world & Renovating our home!

Guilty pleasures? 

I need my coffee every morning!! 

Shopping Dates/Online shopping!! 

And I love a good Gin and tonic!!
