Rainbow Room International Style the Stars at Scotland’s TRSMT Festival
Rainbow Room International, were delighted to be stylists to the stars backstage for the fourth year.
The Rainbow Room International team were stylists to the stars again at this year’s TRNSMT Festival – Scotland’s biggest summer festival – for the third year running.
The team had an incredible weekend and styled the hair of some of the hottest acts and band members who came along to the pop-up salon to have their hair tidied up, including Sundara Karma, The Snuts, The Hunna, Fontaines DC, The Amazons, Mystery Jets and Circa Waves.
Rainbow Room International has previously styled hair at many high profile events including the MOBOs, the Scottish BAFTAs, The Scottish Style Awards and T in The Park – where they were resident hairdressers to the stars for fifteen years – before the Glasgow gig rebranded to TRNSMT three years ago.
The Rainbow Room International hair team kickstarted the festival – which was headlined by Stormzy, Catfish and the Bottlemen and George Ezra – by pampering bands before their stage performance.
Lead singer and guitarist, Ryan Potter from The Hunna opted for a neaten up on his undercut and trim from Director of Rainbow Room International Royal Exchange Square salon David Nicholson, and fellow band member and drummer Jack Metcalfe had his hair braided by Kyla Colquhoun from the Rainbow Room International Buchanan Street salon, for a sleek look on-stage.

Band members from Sundara Karma and The Amazons were treated to trims and texture, with most opting for a messy grunge style using Schwarzkopf Professional products to create rockstar looks.
The weekend had a very chilled out and relaxed vibe but by the time the headliners took to the stage, the atmosphere was electric. The team had the pleasure of styling the hair of the stars and were able to meet some big names, including Mabel, Richard Ashcroft, Sigrid, Lewis Capaldi and Sam Fender.
David Nicholson at Rainbow Room International said: “We were thrilled to work backstage for the third consecutive year at Scotland’s biggest summer gig, TRNSMT Festival. It’s a fantastic opportunity for our Rainbow Room International team to get our name out there and continue to fly the flag of excellence for Glasgow.
“The salon was incredibly popular with the artists and their management teams and many artists were delighted to be able to get their hair looking its best before going on stage. All three days at TRNSMT were fantastic and we are looking forward to next year already.”
The award-winning salon group is celebrating its 40th year in business this year.
