As a busy groomer, I’ve been helping Simpsons to test new product concepts for a few years now. It’s actually very rewarding and has helped me to learn more about tools, coat treatments and salon equipment.

Banish Super Conditioner

Simpsons have asked me to pass on a few tips with a focus on products I believe can make our jobs easier and improve the results of our labours. Hope you find my suggestions useful.
