Lorraine is President of the Association of Hairdressers and Therapists (AHT) providing professional updates for education members in collaboration with industry, through webinars and in-person activities. Student competitions are an important part of her work and Lorraine has had the opportunity to develop these, ensuring they comply with industry best practice and challenge learners to reach their potential.

Marian Newman has worked in every aspect of the nail industry since opening a ‘nails only’ salon in 1988, then moving into training and subsequently building a formidable reputation prompting Tatler magazine to comment “Marian Newman is to nails what Karl Lagerfeld is to frocks.” She is a frequent contributor to the media and was the Chairperson of the Nail Services Forum and Committee Member for Habia (Hairdressing and Beauty Industry Authority) for many years. Marian works with many leading designers at the key fashion shows including London and Paris and has worked for Loewe, Vivienne Westwood, Emanuel Ungaro, Sonia Rykiel, Alexander McQueen, Giles and Mary Katrantzou.
