The team
Katrina and the Taboo team
Thirty years ago Katrina took the reins of Taboo — and it has been a place of beautiful hair, amazing clients, friendships and plenty of laughter ever since.
Today Katrina shares the salon with Alex, Macy and Tay: foils, creamy blondes, warm autumn colour and sharp haircuts are all in a week’s work. The team is growing too, with a new apprentice on the way.
