Today we talk to Steve Courtney who is the Senior Concepts Director and former Head of New Product Innovation at Dyson. He has been at the forefront of pioneering Dyson technology for the past 23 years.

Steve has been described as Dyson’s resident ‘blue sky thinker’, and spends his days in Dyson’s secretive D9 research facility, a mirrored glass, impenetrable cube where, as he explains “we have a group of people who only think about the future.”

Dyson’s mission is simple: to solve problems others ignore. Finding these problems sits at the heart of Steve’s role – cordless vacuums that have no suck, noisy fans with spinning blades, heavy, hot and noisy hair dryers. Steve and the team search for novel ways to solve them, engineering technology that is different, better and pioneering. It was Courtney’s idea to use the motor to power the Dyson SupersonicTM Hair Dryer.

On today’s episode of the strands that bind us we sit down with the mastermind that is Gordon Miller, CEO and chief of Brand Engagement with Hairbrained, the community that is known as home of the craft hairdresser.

After a volatile and unknown past year, we speak about what patterns and expectations are being put on both the client and the stylist, as salons revamp back to full throttle at a quick rate.

Gordon shed’s light on statistical truths and a cold reality on what it takes to be successful not only in hair, but nearly any industry moving forward.

Not unlike most of the industries many of us are in, there are many business models that can be followed and we touch on how trends are shifting and what expectations we can control as we see progress moving   forward.

From the power our words hold to client behavior and simply finding balance with a workaholic mentality, Gordon shares wisdom he has gained through speaking with some of the industry’s top individuals.

The Strands That Bind Us –
Shawna Lane did not always dream of being a hairstylist, her first loves were photography and fashion which she pursued in college. In need of extra money in school she decided to get a receptionist position at a very hip and edgy salon downtown Toronto called Coupe Bizzarre. Almost immediately she knew she had found her tribe and her new creative outlet.

After 10 years of haircutting magic and doing every creative and wild haircut you could imagine she craved a different environment and shifted her path, ending up working at the salon Matthew co-owned at the time.

Shawna has always been the most thoughtful and attentive hairstylist, sitting down with her clients chatting and listening to them to make sure she served their every need. However, her other love of health and nutrition was always put on the back burner, knowing maybe not all clients are looking for help in this are by their hairstylist. She had no idea then a shift was coming….

Two years after moving to a private studio with Matthew and their three friends, she helped start an advanced training academy called The Good Ones Academy. Shortly after that her life changed forever when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Stage 4b…. there is no stage 5…

From that moment, she knew immediately her life would never be the same.

Matthew and Drew met over a decade ago in Madrid working on a L’Oréal Professional international event. They didn’t know it yet, but they were destined to be soul mates. Their next adventure was in Las Vegas for a hair show and they had to share a room for 4 days. They were both going to life changing situations at the same time from moving from small towns to major fashion hubs and both going through life altering breakups. Since that weekend they have leaned on each other, inspired each other, and their friendship has developed to the magic it is today. Today we talk about their parallel but yet so different and unique journeys through hair together, and how having a great support system throughout your career may be one of the most important things in anyone’s journey.
This is a story of friendship through hair...
