Giovanna (Jo) Ward
Salon Director/Owner
Hi, I'm Giovanna, but everyone calls me Jo!
​
I’ve been in the hairdressing industry for over 30 years, and it’s been quite the journey. I started out in a small salon in Thame and over the years, I’ve worked in salons all across the South East, including Harpenden, St.Albans, Buckingham and Leighton Buzzard and of course, Aylesbury. I've had the privilege of managing five salons, and one of my most exciting roles was working with the Andrew Collinge team in Liverpool. I even spent two years aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, styling hair while sailing through the Bahamas.
​
I also spent time teaching as a hairdressing lecturer at Aylesbury College, sharing my passion and skills with the next generation of stylists. Opening my own salon has always been a dream of mine. From starting out with Eden in Bierton, moving into Aylesbury town centre and now running Amici from my garden cabin. Amici isn’t just a salon, it’s a welcoming space where you can feel at ease. My aim has always been simple: to provide a friendly, professional, and flexible service that’s tailored to each person's needs, all in a calm and comforting setting.

Whether you're a regular or a new face, you're very welcome at Amici. I'm always here to listen, advise, and help you feel your absolute best. So, if you’d like to book an appointment, or just have a question, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to seeing you soon.
