We applaud Rachel Shenton for signing off her #Oscars award winning speech for the 'The Silent Child' using sign language!

The film, which Shenton wrote and starred in, tell the story of a 4-year-old girl, Libby, played by Maisie Sly. Libby is deaf, born into a world in which she is isolated until a social worker teaches her how to communicate using sign language.

As the current climate is shining a light on the empowerment of women, Meghan Markle disagrees with the people that say we are helping women find their voice – Meghan says:                                                                       

... “Women don’t need to find a voice, they have a voice.

They need to feel empowered to use it,

and people need to be encouraged to listen”

“I think right now in the climate that we’re seeing, with so many campaigns like #MeToo and #TimesUp, there’s no better time to really continue to shine a light on women feeling empowered and people really helping to support them, men included in that, it makes such a tremendous difference.” 

Our theme: Reduce - Re-use - Recycle - the fusion of sustainability and fashion to inspire exciting and fresh hair looks!
