The Riot Hearts Team
A Manchester based hair studio ran by two self-proclaimed “ageing emos”.
The soundtrack of a day in the salon mainly consists of the stuff we listened to when we were in our teens (think My Chemical Romance, Paramore & Panic at the Disco)

If someone wrote a biography about you, what do you think the title would be?
“Got There In The End”
What Was Your First Love?
Barbie! Oh my god I was obsessed! When I was little, my mum and dad even surprised me by decorating my bedroom 'Barbie Themed'. Safe to say I was indeed a Barbie Girl.
What was the first concert you ever went to?
Steps
Controversial: is a Jaffa Cake, a cake or a biscuit?
A cake, but I definitely eat them like they’re biscuits
What is your most embarrassing moment?
I walked all of the way from the Northern Quarter, down to Albert square and back with my skirt tucked into the top of my tights. That's right, most of Manchester saw my pants that day! What annoys me the most about this, is that NO-ONE thought it was a good idea to stop and tell me!
What is your favourite movie?
Hard to pick just one, but my top 2 would be The Labyrinth (always wished I was Sarah), and Waynes World.
What’s a weird fact you happen to know?So have you ever wondered why there’s that bow that’s on the front of pretty much every pair of knickers? It's a homage to back in the day when knickers first became fashionable. Back then you used to have to tie them up with ribbon or string – creating a bow at the front.
Who was your childhood actor/actress crush?
I cant believe that I'm admitting to this, but i was in LOVE with Frankie Muniz. Y'know, Malcolm from “Malcolm in the Middle”, yeah....

Controversial: is a Jaffa Cake, a cake or a biscuit?
100% a cake.
What is your favourite movie?
When I was younger I used to say The Little Shop of Horrors, when Black Beauty was actually my favourite. But now, I would probably say my favourite is still The Little Shop of Horrors.
Who was your childhood actor/actress crush?
Angel from Buffy - Come on, he was the Robert Pattinson of my era….
What do you think about garden gnomes?
I've got a funny story about garden gnomes- when I was a teenager there was a house that had a garden FULL of gnomes. I was a bit drunk one night, and turned all of the gnomes around to face the house.
If you were a biscuit, what biscuit would you be?
A chocolate hobnob- perfect for dunking into a brew.
