Series 1
A unique makeover show that that sticks two fingers up to 鈥榝itting in鈥� and being 鈥榩retty鈥�. It's a place where difference is celebrated and true identities are discovered.
Misfits Salon is a series of transformational short films set in the inclusive world of a hair salon run by Sophia Hilton, a self-confessed maverick and champion of anyone who feels like an outsider.
With bright yellow hair and colourful outfits, Sophia isn鈥檛 afraid to stand out from the crowd - but it hasn鈥檛 always been that way. After years of being bullied, Sophia knows what it鈥檚 like to feel like you don鈥檛 fit in. This experience shaped her entire salon philosophy, where she鈥檚 created a safe space that her clients can find their own individual style. This is the spirit of Misfits Salon.
Front and centre of each film is a person who wants to radically change their look. Lacking confidence, these new clients have been hiding in the shadows, wanting to be as invisible as possible. Sophia wants to give them the confidence to enjoy being noticed. Unlike other make-over shows, the transformation is led by them not an expert telling them what to wear. This isn鈥檛 about being 鈥榩retty鈥� it鈥檚 about revealing a person鈥檚 true personality and letting it shine.
