EP151 – Nick Irwin talks about where hairdressing is heading in 2026

Nov 20, 2025

Nick Irwin first joined us in September 2021 for a one-on-one chat. With his increasingly high profile as global brand ambassador at Schwarzkopf, and hair editor at Hunger Magazine, we thought it high time to invite him back. Recently the featured guest in Tribu-te Magazine’s Autumn edition (read HERE), there is a lot to this hairdresser and session stylist Nick. From Cumbria to London and beyond, his story is super interesting.

Fascinated from a young age by subculture and the expression of individuality through hair and clothes, Nick is very forward thinking. In this podcast with host Nicky Pope, he shares his take on where we are in hairdressing now, and his vision for the future. It’s compelling listening.
