JOANNA HANSFORD
16:50, Sunday 25 March, Mainstage
Daughter of the ‘first lady of colour”, Jo Hansford, Joanna trained on the floor of mother’s award-winning Mayfair salon to gain a deep understanding of all aspects of the business before being appointed managing director in 2001. “My role is to ensure that the Jo Hansford brand maintains its core values of consistency, professionalism, passion and expertise at all times,” she says. A founding member of Modern Muse (www.modernmuse.co.uk), which aims to inspire the next generation of female business leaders and entrepreneurs, Joanna is also a mentor for the Bright Ideas Trust and was previously vice president of the Hair and Beauty Benevolent.
Joanna has been instrumental in the development of the ‘Foundation India’ project that sees the winners of the Young Generation Award at the Indian L’Oréal Colour Trophy head to the UK for a week long all-inclusive seminar with the Jo Hansford team that includes everything from expert colouring techniques to how to run a successful commercial business.
