Carolyn Collins
GENERAL MANAGER
Carolyn comes from the UK and joined Roots in January 2018 and came from an illustrious career in the hospitality business having worked in some of the top 5-star hotels and restaurants in London. Carolyn has an amazing attention to detail and has worked hard with all the staff at Roots to make them understand the importance of giving the best customer service to every customer every time they visit the salon. She also has many ideas to make everyone – both customers and staff – feel incredibly special. Since she has come on board the Roots brand has grown incredibly and it is now known as the best hair and beauty salon in Qatar and won the OhLaLa Award for Best Beauty Salon 2018 to 21. We were a finalist in the GCC Beauty Professional Awards 2019 for Best Hair Salon in the Middle East and Carolyn has been a finalist for manager of the year for the past 4 years. 2018 & 19 was a huge year of growth for Roots thanks to her efforts and drive.
Carolyn has branched out in very innovative directions by supporting small businesswomen and putting them in touch with those who can help them. We held workshops, pamper evenings, Giving Back, Giving Hope (supporting women with cancer) and have had our first Self- Care Fashion Show 2019 – all of which was so well received and given Roots a reputation for supporting women in the community through our events and our ethos.
Carolyn has a daughter, Jasmin, who lives in the UK and they are both passionate about horses. Her dream is to own her own Equestrian Centre one day.
Carolyn loves living in Qatar and has had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful women. She feels everyone in Qatar is lucky to be here and witness the amazing changes in the country as well as experience some incredible events.

Jayde
TECHNICAL DIRECTOR
Hairdressing is in Jayde’s blood. She was born with scissors in her hand and from an early age she knew she would make a living this way.
After spending 10 years working in Edinburgh learning the latest fashions and trends, Jayde came to Doha to get a more international view on hair styling. Jayde was a finalist in the L’Oreal Colour Trophy, which is a fantastic achievement in the hair industry and she has incredible hands that can turn any type of hair-up into a work of art. You can see some of her creations on our Facebook Page.
Jayde describes Roots as an “international salon where glamour can become a reality”. She loves its constant research of beauty, perfection and style. Jayde particularly enjoys seeing the whole transformation from start to finish, especially how colour and cut work together. She says “there is nothing better than seeing a look turn into something spectacular from shampooing to the finishing touches of styling”.
Jayde is a fan of her new home in Doha and she says you should go to Neo on the Salwa Road and enjoy the Maki Patters or all the sushi you can eat for only QR150 – sounds great value.
