Bristol hairstylist Carl Bembridge details celebrity career from Ariana Grande to Vogue covers

Carl Bembridge, a hairstylist from Bristol, has built a successful career working with high-profile celebrities and major magazines. His journey began as a shy apprentice at Redfield's Cohesion Hair while overcoming health challenges like rickets that required 11 surgeries. His big break came when he styled Ariana Grande during her London shoot, which was a significant moment for him. He initially traveled to London using tips from working on small magazine shoots, which led him to his first celebrity client, Katie Price, through social media. Recently, he styled Nicole Scherzinger for Vogue Greece and participated in a press tour in New York with The Pussycat Dolls. Now in Essex with 141,000 Instagram followers, he attributes his success to his mother, who bought him his first mannequin. Bembridge has also landed a role in Season 8 of Love Island USA, filmed in Fiji, and has secured an American agent. Karen Whyte, co-owner of Cohesion Hair, noted his early shyness and bright potential. He strongly believes anyone can reach their dreams, no matter their background.
