Luli is the face of ART8, and indeed the salon’s name is curiously derived from his proud Kosovan heritage which brought him to these shores and gave him his British citizenship of which he is also very proud of. Hairdressing is undoubtedly his forte something for which he has a true passion for and excels at. Not only superb haircutter and colourist with a remarkable specialty for meticulous multi-dimensional and microlight highlighting of which a large number of his regular clientele repeatedly come back to him for. Through his patience and skill as a colourist of some calibre he is able to produce a fusional cascade of blonde tones with fine highlights that are as close to the root as anyone would want. He offers impeccable haircutting for both women and men and as a men’s hairdresser his painstaking and fully focussed accuracy for what we hairdressers call “scissor-over-comb”work has to be seen to be believed. During his busy schedule he always finds time to give advice to clients both new or regulars as to how they can change or update their “look” so often the results are absolutely stunning.
