Arkive by Adam Reed

MEET THE TEAM: SARAH BLACK - The Creative Director.

Who’s your ultimate Hair icon? - “Debbie Harry, every time! There was a blueprint that she continuously played with and I think she made grungey texture and cool colour blocking so wearable.”

What are you obsessed with at the moment? - “Sunny days in London! I know we’ve just had a sprinkling of them, but I LOVE a neighbourhood mooch and I’m having fun exploring life back in London.”

Go on, tell us you’re guilty pleasure! - “Is it a guilty pleasure if I have zero guilt?! I think maybe an unexpected pleasure is my love for a daytime crime drama - Poirot! My fave. Midsummer Murders? Sign me uppp. I just love ittt.”

What are you listening to on repeat? - “Raye is on my repeat list just now. She’s just so cool and I love a vocal moment!!!

What era should you have been born? - “To be in my 20’s in the late 70’s - in New York, obviously. Disco, Studio 54, fun, frolicking, fashionnn. Yes.”

All time favourite hair product? - “I’m gonna cheat and give you 2!! I bloody love a dry texture spray - Bedroom Hair by Kevin Murphy is insane. And The Mastery liquid hairspray by ARKIVE Headcare. I think it’s my favourite product in the collection….so far!”
