WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE THING TO DO IN YOUR FREE TIME?
I love to play padel tennis. It’s something I discovered a few years ago whilst living in Spain and now I’m addicted. I try to play at least 2-3 times a week, and I am very competitive at it! I also love going to the gym frequently, reading a wide variety of books and, most of all, spending time with my family.
CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THE INSPIRATION BEHIND YOUR LATEST COLLECTION?
My latest collection was all about alignment. I am very spiritual in many ways, so I wanted to feel complete alignment in my career – sort of like the older Tracey creating the collection that the younger Tracey could never do. I spend a lot of time looking back on my career and thinking about what inspired me along the way. Back then, I didn’t have the ability to create the hair that I wanted to create, but over time I have mastered the skills. This collection was really about looking back through experienced eyes and thinking about how I could bring everything I love about hair to life.
CAN YOU SHARE WITH US ONE OF YOUR PROUDEST HAIRDRESSING MOMENTS?
Being crowned Fellowship Hairdresser of the Year in 2023 for the second time was literally mind-blowing! It was such a huge honour and I will never forget it – especially as it was 10 years since the first time I’d won the same award and I’m only the third ever person to achieve that. I am truly grateful. I have also had many proud moments working with ASP as their Global Ambassador for more than a decade. It’s been an incredible journey and one that I have enjoyed immensely.
