About Me

I’m Alina Kalinichenko — a professional hairdresser and stylist based in Ryde, Isle of Wight.
With over 12 years of experience across Europe, I focus on creating healthy, elegant and individual looks through techniques such as hair highlights, keratin bond extensions, precision haircuts and restorative treatments.

My path in beauty started in Ukraine, where I earned my first degree in Human Design from UIP Kharkiv. Later, I continued my education in Poland, graduating from the Medical Institute in Kraków with a specialisation in Trichology — the science of scalp and hair health.
This background allows me to combine creativity with medical knowledge, providing services that not only look beautiful but also keep the hair strong and healthy.

I regularly take part in professional courses and have been recognised in Estel competitions, constantly improving my techniques to stay aligned with the latest trends and technologies.

Today, I work at a cosy salon on Ryde High Street, where I create a calm, private atmosphere for each client.
My goal is to deliver refined, personalised results that reflect your natural beauty and lifestyle.

You’re welcome to book a consultation — I’ll assess your hair’s condition, recommend the best care plan and help you achieve a look that feels truly yours.
