KH Hair Arnold has played host to 50 members of the local community who came together at Mapperley Golf Club for an informal and informative evening to talk about all things menopause.
During the evening, which took place on 13 November, guests at KH Hair Arnold enjoyed engaging presentations which covered a range of issues affecting women dealing with menopause. The talks were led by professionals including Dr Alice Duffy from Nottingham’s Health in Menopause Clinic.
Dr Alice, a GP and British Menopause Society accredited specialist, says she chose to specialise in the menopause because she wants to help women feel better and thrive in all aspects of their personal and professional lives. “Every woman’s journey through perimenopause into menopause is unique to her,” she says. “Understanding the hormone changes and the impact these can have on her mood, emotions, physical symptoms and overall sense of wellbeing is vital to ensure that women thrive in life, in their relationships and in the workplace.”

Other experts included KH Hair Newark’s salon director, Maxine Sutcliffe, who is a qualified trichologist. Alongside, Ruth Salt, representing leading hair brand Wella, Maxine gave tips on managing hair health, which included dietary and product advice. Also presenting was KH Beauty skin therapist, Kirsten York, who shared her knowledge of how to keep skin vibrant and healthy. Finally, fitness expert, Lorna Maria, highlighted key exercises to support a healthy body throughout the menopause journey.
KH Hair Arnold’s salon manager, Helen Stilwell, said she was thrilled with the turnout. “Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to and attended our amazing menopause evening,” she says. “We’re all so proud of our team and so very grateful to our guest speakers. We had 50 attendees and raised £375 for The Menopause Charity, so the evening was a great success.”
Attendee, Julie Butler, one of Helen’s clients, says it was comforting to feel that ‘you’re not the only one’. “From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming,” she says. “Dr Alice gave such an insightful talk and gaining a better understanding of the changes in our bodies, hair, skin, and emotions was truly a relief. We now feel empowered to face these challenges with confidence—whether through our own behaviours or by seeking help from our GP when needed. We feel prepared and informed for the years ahead.”
“At last menopause is being spoken about widely in society,” adds Dr Alice. “I would encourage women to seek their information and advice from reputable sources and to gain knowledge and information that is particular to them. Not only is correct treatment important for managing symptoms, it is also important women take this opportunity as a reset moment to ensure lifestyle changes related to diet, exercise and stress management facilitate their long-term goal of good health.”
