an image consultant with natural style
When it comes to personal style, you need an experienced professional who will not only give you an honest appraisal, but also provide effective ways to emphasise your good points, play down the flaws, and help you face the world with renewed confidence.
Nobody is better qualified than Cliff Bashforth, one of the the few personal stylists to hold Master Status with the International Federation of Image Consultants. With a career spanning three decades and a current client base of over 18,000, Cliff has the practical skills and innate creativity to transform people‘s view of themselves, giving them the confidence to achieve their goals.
Colour consultant
Cliff first branched out for himself in 1988, and just two years later became the top consultant for Europe's leading image company, colour me beautiful. Since then, he has gained a formidable reputation within the image industry and a high media profile through appearances on BBC2 and Granada Television. Cliff is also a regular columnist on style matters for newspapers and magazines, while his recent contributions for The Guardian, Daily Express, Men's Health & Cosmopolitan along with frequent radio interviews have earned him quite a following.
A consummate professional, he oversees international training at colour me beautiful, spending several days each month at the company's London headquarters and traveling throughout the UK and Europe working with and advising CMB distributors and consultants.
Presentations
Cliff is an accomplished and witty speaker too, able to hold even large audiences spellbound. His skill as a 'performer' was most recently demonstrated by conferences for 500 human resource directors aboard P&O cruise liners in France and Italy. He has also been known to draw the crowds during special style demonstrations at several retail stores.
Corporate image consultant
In fact, Cliff is always a welcome presence in the High Street, with clients such as Next, Marks & Spencer and Wallis commissioning him to raise customer service standards at their premises. Other major blue chip clients include banks, financial institutions, retailers, airlines and optical chains in the UK and Europe who rely on consultants of Cliff's caliber to promote a polished and efficient staff image through seminars and training courses.
With his own team of hair & beauty stylists, Cliff provides a complete image makeover for personal and professional individuals from his salon in Preston, and is also available for on-site consultations for corporate clients.
