[217] Following up on our recent conversation with Advanced Healing Artist for L'ANZA and Salon Centric influencer Christopher Aaron, we turn our eyes to the UK, where, in a long-overdue change, the National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Hairdressing have now been updated to include mandatory training in cutting and styling of afro and textured hair.

Featuring haircare specialist and co-founder of Cognito Hair in London, this week's episode explores Shareefa Jennings' journey in the salon industry, her thoughts on the announcement of the new standards, as well as what she deems necessary for growth both as a hairdresser and salon owner, inclusiveness and exceptional client care.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
