  • Emma

    Emphasized Hair by Emz Collins

    Founder · Master Stylist · Colour + Weft Extension Specialist

    Emphasized Hair has been my baby from the beginning… a space I created to make beautiful hair feel personal, welcoming and genuinely enjoyable.

    With over 15 years in the industry, I specialise in personalised colour, cutting and seamless weft extensions. I love creating hair that feels elevated but still completely you, and I’m always investing in education and refining my craft.

    Outside the salon, I’m an extroverted introvert, a little bit spiritual, obsessed with the gym, sunrise walks and my fur baby Karma. I’m equally happy surrounded by people or disappearing into my own little bubble for a recharge.

    As Emphasized enters its next era, I’m excited to have created a space where talented independent stylists can build their own businesses alongside mine… while our clients still get the warm, relaxed Emphasized experience I’ve always wanted the salon to be known for.

    My goal behind the chair is simple: beautiful hair that suits your lifestyle and has you leaving feeling confident, empowered and completely yourself.
