This week on Olivia’s House, we’re joined by world-renowned celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton, and this is one of the most honest, emotional and powerful conversations we’ve ever had.

Chris opens up about growing up in Leicester, feeling different, hiding his identity, and the painful journey of coming out to his long term partner Katie and their children. In a deeply moving moment, he speaks about hitting rock bottom.

From there, Chris reflects on healing, therapy and learning to put boundaries in place while navigating fame, pressure and public expectations.
He also lifts the curtain on life behind the glam, from hairdresser confessions and celebrity hair fails to working with some of the biggest names in the world, including JLo and Kim Kardashian. Chris shares red carpet chaos, industry secrets, and his thoughts on the headlines surrounding Kim.
