Nicky Clarke

Nicky Clarke OBE (born 17 June 1958) is an English hair stylist and media personality.

His then girlfriend, Lesley, gave him an ultimatum of kicking him out or calling the police if he didn't get off the drugs, prompting him to seek help.

When Clarke was 17, he had his first Vogue shoot in 1976 and soon after founded his first salon with John Frieda on Marylebone Road.

Clarke received an OBE in February 2008, awarded for 30 years service to the hair-styling industry.

In 2021, Clarke married his long-term partner Kelly Simpkin who he met in 2010 when she was a stylist working for him.
