TEAM BOLT
Laura Wallis
Salon Owner//Commercial Director//Bolt Salons
Hey Bolt Babes!
My background started in fashion, where I worked as visual merchandiser for lots of different brands including the Arcadia Group & Mercedes Benz. Along with some exciting freelance projects.
For 11 years now my role is to look after the BOLT business, teams & guests!
I absolutely love looking after the business side of the brand. Each day brings a new challenge, which keeps me super busy and is never boring. From Bookeeping, HR & social media….no two days are the same!
Im grateful for the amazing team & inclusive atmosphere we’ve created at BOLT!
You can reach me via email if you want to get in touch!
Bethan Cox
Area Manager //BOLT Salons Crumlin
Hi BOLT Babes!
My names Bethan and i’ve been in the hairdressing industry for over 15 years. I Started as a Saturday girl at fourteen and that’s where my passion for hair began. I consider myself as an all round hairdresser but I have a special passion for colour and love creating new looks for my clients. I’m now trained in Beauty Works extensions and I can’t wait to transform your look!
I have worked really hard to gain an amazing clientele who I now consider to be more friends than clients. I see my job as being as much about a social experience as it is doing beautiful hair.
I enjoy doing hair competitions and have competed in the prestigious L’oreal Colour Trophy getting through to the regional finals in 2018 and 2019. I have been lucky to be involved in lots of photoshoots during my career.
I have been with BOLT Salons for over 11 years and I have recently been promoted to Area manager. I am looking forward to the new challenge of managing the salon and teaching the BOLT education programme to our growing team.
