Louise May moves into new role of EDITOR-IN-CHIEF for Mocha Group

Since joining Mocha Group in 2020, Louise has become an integral member of the team in her role as Hair Biz and Beauty Biz editor and now advances into the role of Editor-In-Chief. An expert in working closely with business owners to help them reach their full potential, she has spent the past 3 years helping to shape the direction of this dynamic industry resource, writing as well as garnishing an incredible group of contributors for the Mocha titles.

Gleaning her vast experience from salon ownership, individual and business mentorship, sales and education, as well as product formulation, Louise is a multi-faceted industry talent who is proud to make an impact celebrating, supporting and inspiring creatives, business owners and brands alike.

In this newly created role of Editor-In-Chief, Louise will now also look after the editorship and direction of Barbershop Magazine, as current Editor Rex Silver pursues a new and exciting career development, whilst still contributing to the magazine as Senior Freelance Writer.

Lousie is excited to extend her role within the Mocha Group.

“We are growing in strength, position and divisions and I’m proud to be a part of that. I’m lucky enough to be able to converse, interview and follow some incredible people in the hair, beauty and barber industries, some of whom, I can honestly say have become an important part of my life, both personally and professionally. I feel honoured to be in a position where I can also be a part of mocha’s activities nurturing the youth of our industry, with Hot Shots and Beauty Squad and literally living with these young talents of our future, for 3-4 days, is an annual highlight for me. In this new role I will continue to delve deep into all 3 industries and bring our readers the very best in informative and inspirational stories.”

CEO and Founder of Mocha Group Linda Woodhead feels lucky to have Louise as part of the growing business.

”Louise has a real heart felt passion for the hair, beauty and barber industry which fits perfectly with the mocha ethos and culture. She is instrumental to the future of mocha group and brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and joy to the team.”
