Jemma Leversha
Im originally from Cairns and have absolutely wanted to do hairdressing and makeup since I was a young kid.
At the age of 12 I started helping as a tea and tidy at a family friends salon and new from that moment this is what I wanted to do in life.
At the age of 14 I started a school based apprenticeship at Reds hair and spa.
​After finishing my apprenticeship I moved to Melbourne to be with my now Husband Tim and further my hairdressing skills and lived there for 10 years.
​
In this time I got to work at numerous Sydney and Melbourne Fashion weeks and editorial shoots which was an incredible experience.
​
When I was in Melbourne I got to perfect the art of Men’s and short haircuts when I was working with Steven at Herrblick who is a master of his craft.
​
We decided to move back up to Cairns to start a family and further our careers.
​
After having my son I decided to open up a beautiful intimate Salon at the back of 'I do Flowers'. As this grew I realised I needed a bigger space and Allure popped up for sale and I met the beautiful previous owner Bec.
​
It has been an absolute pleasure being welcomed into this amazing salon and getting to connect with old and new clients.
I love every area of hairdressing and enjoy continuously learning and developing my skills.
​
For me the most important thing in hairdressing is for us to collaborate together, This allows me to understand you and your style and for us to work together to achieve a look that you love.
​
I love showing clients simple and easy techniques so they can recreate the look they get in the salon at home.
Integrity of your hair is prioritised and I will offer you advice on what products will support you at home.
