Osmo Announces New Technical Educator: Terry Longden

OSMO is pleased to announce its latest team addition, the legendary Terry Longden.

Terry Longden, a seasoned professional with over 40 years in the hairdressing industry, is an experienced and qualified hair colourist with outstanding educational and creative skills. 

With over 20 years’ experience as an Educator, Terry will be responsible for delivering OSMO and OSMO IKON training courses across the East Midlands area, working with OSMO key wholesalers, alongside delivering live education through the OSMO social channels and OSMO IKON Facebook group. 

“OSMO is a brand I’ve known for many years having used various OSMO IKON products in my salon.  The real stand out of the brand – apart from its wide range of colour, styling, and care products – is that it’s a British brand.  Already I can appreciate the hard work and dedication the OSMO team dedicate to our craft and love how close they collaborate with hairdressers, too.  Because OSMO make products in their Glasgow location, I’ve been able to understand how quick they can respond to trends and hairdresser requests for new products and colours. It’s going to be a great opportunity for me to share my extensive hair colouring, styling, and educational knowledge with the OSMO team and customers.  I can’t wait to get started!” explains Terry. 

Throughout his extensive career, Terry has excelled in various roles, including education, live shows, salon ownership, clothes styling, and contributing as a makeup artist and hairstylist for high-profile magazine shoots and television shows such as 'The Salon' and 'The X Factor.' Additionally, he serves as a style columnist for NOW Magazine and The Daily Express.  Terry also owns his own salon, Terry Longden Creatives in Redditch, West Midlands, catering to a diverse clientele across commercial and high-fashion domains.

“When the recent opportunity came up to invite Terry to join the OSMO Family, it was something we couldn’t overlook!  Terry’s creativity, educational experience, and reputation is hugely impressive. His experience within the industry is second to none and we’re so excited to see what the future brings.” OSMO Senior Brand Manager, Sinéad McLaughlin concludes.
