In 1991 Vanessa embarked on her career in Trichology and started training with the Institute of Trichologists, who are the UK’s main qualifying and professional association. Interestingly in 1993 she became the youngest female ever to qualify as a trichologist. In 1996 after completing a further three years in clinical practice Vanessa was awarded the coveted membership of the Institute of Trichologists and membership of the Royal Society for Public Health. Vanessa is now a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health and a member of The Royal Society of Medicine.

From a busy London base, further extensive clinical work followed advising a broad spectrum of people ranging from media personalities to politicians, busy mothers, students as well as businessmen and women. Vanessa also had the opportunity of fronting the launch of an international hair care product range and being invited on to the list of experts for a large international brand involved with producing hair care equipment.

Vanessa was honoured to receive a lifetime Achievement Award from the esteemed governing and educational body The Institute of Trichologists during the World Trichology Conference held at The Royal Society of Medicine in London 2023.
