About Us

CREATIVITY – IT’S IN OUR DNA Since opening their first salon in Wimbledon almost 25 years ago, co-founders and joint C.E.Os of RUSH Hair, Andy Phouli and Stell Andrew had a dream to open a hairdressing academy, where hairdressers could come to learn the RUSH Way. Their dream has now been turned into a reality as the RUSH Academy has recently opened in the heart of one of London’s most eclectic and cosmopolitan areas, Covent Garden. Designed by Stell Andrew, the RUSH Academy is a magical space, an urban art gallery fused with an educational centre of excellence. The light, bright classrooms, featuring concrete styling positions and can accommodate 40 students are separated form the break out and reception areas by large glass and metal partitions. A wide array of short and long term courses from Motivational Mondays to Cutting the RUSH Way, Colour RUSH and the RUSH foundation Course will all be taking place at the new Academy. The fabric of the building provided the blueprint for the design with exposed brick wall, crumbling plaster, uncovered ducting, stone flooring and metal gates and staircase all providing a raw utilitarian feel to the building. The basin area is situated in the underground arches along side the bespoke colour bar and retail units. The reception desk is made from steel and 100 year-old planks, and old laboratory desk and school chairs are situated in the breakout area, where all who visit will be intrigued by the graffiti art depicting Elvis, Jimi Hendrix and Sid Vicious by street artist Paul Insect on the exposed brick walls. Visitors to the RUSH Academy will be drawn into the larger than life urban artwork from Matt Small, who has painted two bold absorbing pieces directly onto old fridge doors. Lighting is key to creating the correct ambiance in each area of the Academy and the spectacular chandelier by British designer Tom Dixon is contemporary and at the same time makes quite a statement. Tom Dixon lighting and soft furnishings have also been used throughout the Academy. Stell and his team have created a melting pot of stimulating design, one that will inspire all who visit. Andy and Stell’s dream has become a reality, one that epitomises RUSH and what they stand for - up to date cool street fashion, innovative hairdressing and the ability to create trends and share them with fellow hairdressers around the world.

Construction or Renovation?

29th Jun 2020

When it’s come’s to construction and or refurbishment it’s difficult to keep track of all that work going on around you, in between trying to hold down a full time job especially if you have children. When the builders start smashing and building daily how do you keep up with it all? You could argue that the builder has your plan and he knows what he’s doing and I’ll leave him to it. But does he truly understand the vision running around in your mind?
