Greg James

Founder & Creative Director

Greg James is at the creative helm of the salon overseeing a team of highly skilled stylists and natural hair colour specialists. Greg knew that hairdressing was his vocation from an early age and has been fortunate to have never needed to deviate from his path. He began his career at Vidal Sassoon in 1999 and quickly progressed through increasingly senior positions at several leading salons before becoming Creative Director of Aveda salon, Kamigata. Here he developed his understanding of the benefits of organic products. Greg is now delighted to be leading his own team at Goji and, as well as providing the full range of colour and cuts, he is also our Great Lengths and hair up specialist. He loves to be inventive so if you’re not sure what you want, just put yourself in his capable hands!

Thanks so much to Greg and the team, excellent service from start to finish and I absolutely love my hair!” Lori

Greg has to be one of the best hairdressers around. I have never been so committed to a hair salon until Greg opened his. They are super friendly and welcoming everytime. I have never left the salon unhappy. Very happy customer.” Amy

Daryl

Master Stylist/Barber

Daryl joined the creative team in 2024, taking over the reins from Sophie following her departure for Scotland.

Daryl has 12 years’ experience in hairdressing/barbering, starting off at the age of 15 working Saturdays in a salon in Rugby where he grew up. He loves all aspects of hairdressing and barbering from colouring, to perming, and also offers hair extension services. He believes that you never stop learning and he seeks new education opportunities whenever he can.

Just like Greg, Daryl is not so much a hair stylist and more of an artist. He takes the ordinary material of what grows on my head and creates a flattering frame for my face. That’s artistry.” Carol

First experience in a salon and getting my hair dyed and it was super welcoming and chilled. Great vibes and will 100% come back.” Sam

Katie

Senior Stylist / Salon Co-Ordinator

Katie is an experienced stylist who joined us having worked in several salons in and around Cardiff since qualifying in 2013. She offers the full range of cut and colour services, as well as gents’ and children’s cuts, but her passion is hair-up and wedding hair. Her warm and bubbly personality makes her popular with her clients. She also keeps the salon on track and can be found on reception when she isn’t on the salon floor.

“Always a lovely experience coming here, such friendly staff. Had balayage done by Katie who did an amazing job. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!” Caitlin
