Clayton Wheeler - Senior Stylist @ Paddington
2007 Australian Next Top Model. Winner of Hair Expo Apprentice of the Year 2007
Everyday as a hairdresser I love to create a hairstyle that suits the persons' style and inviduality. Whether it is long beautifully styled hair, a glamorous funky bob or a Mia Farrow-inspired pixie cute haircut. (which I'm loving at the moment!). Being with a creative team that you can bounce ideas off of and to be able to work in an evironment that is The Suki Playground allows me to do whatever I desire and lets me be the creative person I am.
