Alina was born and grew up in Romania, where she studied finance at university in Bucharest. Having completed her degree, she followed her dream and moved to London, beginning her hairdressing career with a high-end Mayfair salon before joining Billi Currie to complete the intensive BC training programme.

Alina loves hairdressing because she genuinely loves people and enjoys making them happy. She says it is an incredible feeling when you change someone’s hair and watch their body language and confidence grow.

Her style of hairdressing is beautiful, classical and effortless. She specialises in short haircuts, loose undone layered looks and the beachy blow-dry.

In her spare time Alina loves being outdoors, experiencing new things and exploring — and her guests love hearing about her travels and adventures.
