About me
Stuart is proud to have been at the forefront of the British Grooming Industry for many years. Having entered it from another creative industry, he recognised comparisons within the two and has worked hard to try to change its public profile from hobbyist to highly skilled by creating The Groomers Spotlight.
In his quest to change the face of grooming and to raise the professional profile of the industry, Stuart has appeared on many TV shows including Jonathan Ross, This Morning, Lorraine, Alan Titchmarsh, Channel 5 News, GMTV, and many more. Stuart has judged and lectured at many grooming shows around the world and specialises in safety within Creative Grooming.
A former Director of Grooming for the BDGA, He is also a fully qualified, experienced and professional groomer having achieved the Open College Network West Midlands and City and guilds Level 3 Diploma as well as being one of only two groomers in Europe to hold the Qualification for Creative Groomers and the only European Groomer to achieve Masters marks in this qualification. This has led to him being the European examiner for the same qualification through the NAPCG.
He has 2 salons in the UK and came to the attention of the press when he dyed Emma Watsons dog pink for a breast cancer charity. He is incredibly proud to be a supporter of education within the grooming industry.
Stuart is the Grooming Consultant for the BBC TV show Pooch Perfect UK hosted by Sheridan Smith.
