IF:  What was the most challenging job you ever made ?

DB:  I did hair and make-up on a pop-star 25 year ago. We did not get along very well.

IF:  What was your worst hair moment and why….privately or on set/stage or in the salon?

DB:  I did highlights on a client and had bleeding from the color. I never told her. To this day, I regret not informing her of the issue and fixing it for her.

IF:  If you could style anyones hair, who would it be and why?

DB:  I have two women. First, Madonna for being an amazing ambassador for humanity,  and her music has been the sound track to my life. Second, Iris Apfel just because she's Iris Apfel.

IF:  Where do you pull  hair inspiration from?

DB:  Iles Formula Masterclass, Instagram, Pintarest and other Hairdressers.
