Kathryn, DIRECTOR
During 2004-2013 I set-up and co-owned my former salon Escape Hair Sanctuary Ltd, whilst achieving NVQ Levels 2 and 3 in Hairdressing. Following this venture I moved on to working with KeraStraight (now Fabriq) demonstrating and training Stylists in London and Essex.
In 2014 I brought my new experiences and new talents back to my roots in Witham and welcomed all guests to my new eco-salon, Cabello Hair and Beauty (UK) Ltd. I am even lucky enough to bring 4 of my former Stylists along with me for the ride; Gemma, Sam, Jessica and Emma.
Since opening, we have been improving the salon, adding new services, topping up our education and getting involved in some great community projects. We also recently won Employer of the Year 2023, Salon of the Year 2023 and Excellence in Customer Service 2023 by The British Hair and Beauty Awards.
I look forward to pushing forward in 2024, with some fabulous new ideas for the future and can’t wait to show you. In the meantime, I would love to hear your feedback, to make sure we are delivering superior service, so please feel free to e-mail, Facebook message or tweet me at any time. You can even pop by for a chat or book in for a hair-cut/colour or Fabriq treatment with me.
Diane, Guest Relations Manager
Diane came to us in 2020 and quickly made her mark as a senior Gold Artist.

As for her skills as an Artist, you only have to trust the judges at The British Hairdressing and Beauty Awards – As she won ‘Rising Star 2022 and Stylist of the Year 2023
What lights up Diane? Diane absolutely loves vibrant colours, big colour changes and cutting bobs. In her spare time, she loves spending time with her little boy and she’s a massive foodie !

Jessica, Diamond Artist
Jessica was one of the top Artists working with Kat, Sam, Gemma and Emma at Escape Hair Sanctuary.
She is an expert on all things hair and there’s not much the talented Jess can’t do! – Cutting, Styling, Extensions, Hair-Ups, Highlights, Balayage – you name it – Jess has it all!. – She even won Most Talented Stylist Award 2018, having worked with us in under a year. Then this year she follows that up with the British Hair and Beauty Awards – UK Silver Winner Extensions Specialist of the Year 2023.
Jessica absolutely loves colour, colour changes, re-styles, extensions and blowouts including the classic ’round brush bouncy blow-out’. So book now for a ‘wow do’.
Gemma, Diamond Artist
Gemma joined the team having worked alongside Kat, Sam, Jess and Emma at Escape, then while Cabello was being set up in 2013 worked with Lee Stafford at his Chelmsford salon, before returning to her rightful place with the Cabello team.
Gemma has been hairdressing for 16 years and has achieved NVQ Levels 1, 2 and 3. She has completed several courses; Hair-up with Patrick Cameron plus Redken Colour and AVEDA colour. She also took a leading role in the Paul Mitchell Colour Challenge.
Since opening in 2014, Gemma has been Cabello’s lead Colourist and has been focussing her talents on new colour techniques Ombré and Balayage. Gemma also has a great passion for nano-ring and tape hair extensions, and can transform any hair from a few partial extensions around the face to change your look – or a full head of long locks for a dramatic transformation – without the wait!
Gemma’s Occasion Hair and blowout talents are 2nd to none, as she is one of our experts in bridal hair too. In fact she was the UK Silver Winner Bridal/Occasion Hair Specialist of the Year 2023 – British Hair and Beauty Awards,
….so if you’re looking for a great up-do for a night out, some lengthy long locks, hair colour change, style change or even just a trim, Gemma is the Artist for you.
Now older and a little wiser, Emma flew through her level 2 and 3 at Cabello (despite the pandemic), smashing her test scores and amazing her mentors with raw talent and dedication.
Emma is an absolute star and having been with us for over 7 years now, is an established member of our team and Artist. She’s an absolute superstar at Fabriq, Balayage, cutting you name it. She also does a fabulous hair up for any occasion – so book with Emma today.

Emily is studying her Advanced Hairdressing Level 3 course this year, where she will be learning detailed cutting and colour correction techniques.
Emily absolutely loves Balayage, curly blow dries and up-do’s – so book in with her for a superb new look.
Kelsey has been busy buzzing around the salon, during the 2 years she has been training. In 2023 Kelsey completed her Level 2 certificate and is now a fully fledged Artist,
Kelsey loves cutting and colouring plus she loves styling and plaiting. She welcomes all new and existing guests of Cabello to book with her, while she builds up her column as a Junior Artist.
We are super excited to see Kelsey embark on her career in Hairdressing at Cabello.
Kaitlyn has one of the most important jobs in the salon – The Swan. – She keeps everything running smoothly. So you will see her gracefully making her way around the salon floor and making drinks. You might not see her scurrying around behind the scenes, keeping us all fed, watered, tidied and generally keeping us all afloat.
Kaitlyn is also learning her craft. She is already shampooing, giving THE BEST head massages and even performing blow outs on the shop floor.
So if you need anything, or if you call to make an appointment, the chances are you will be speaking to Kaitlyn – so give her a hello sometime.
