May 5, 2021 · Anya Hindmarch. by Francesca Martin on 5 May, 2021. It’s fair to say that Anya Hindmarch, CBE is in a good position to dole out advice which she does rather brilliantly in her first book, If In Doubt, Wash Your Hair (published today 6th May 2021).
Jun 21, 2021 · To celebrate the launch of her new book, Anya did it in true Anya style with a fun memorable pop up. She created a wonderful retro 60s inspired hair salon. I was very lucky to be able to visit a couple of weeks ago.

A good scrub with shampoo makes me calmer and more confident. It’s kind of a slightly flippant joke really. I think most women understand that if you feel good about yourself you actually stand up straighter and look people in the eye more. But it’s also more serious because it incorporates doubt, which weaves its way through most people’s daily li...
I thought writing this book would be like writing eight essays, but in fact it’s quite hard to be vulnerable and in public. It does sort of go against the grain, for me, honestly. But I was inspired by the younger generation. They’re very good at being open about how they feel and frankly that’s very impressive. I thought it was important that my g...
The key to cracking doubt is knowing that everyone else has it. You know really, it’s an absolute fact that everyone does. And you can look at this little gremlin on my shoulder, saying ‘don’t mess up’ and know it’s there to keep you safe. But you can learn to turn the volume down a little bit and realise I’ve got this. Every time you do something ...
There’s a lot of pressure on women to do it. I am not an amazing homemaker who produces lovely home cooked meals. I struggle to get any kind of meal on the table with five children. I’m also planning the next board meeting and managing a diary for five different schools. There’s a lot of stuff going on in my head, which my mother didn’t have in the...
In the boardroom you slightly offset your emotions, but actually this was a realisation that I’m driving a business and driving a team and driving products and all the things I have to do in my job, I realised that without emotion, I will be terrible at that. I mean, emotion is so much part of what I do. If you are running a team or a family it’s i...
I think the most for me being kind it’s so obvious and so innate it’s always hard to kind of imagine that it’s not the norm for some people. To me kindness is about respect. It’s woven into any successful story, be it you know, managing relationships, managing a family or managing a team or an entire workplace. Without kindness you don’t breed resp...
Having a sense of humour brings people together and makes work more engaging. And I think self deprecation is very important. It creates a platform that means shyer people don’t feel afraid to share an idea with other people. That’s pretty good. Self-deprecation and humour make people feel comfortable and more open to share what they want to share....
In the book I include an analogy as life being a fast flowing, often turbulent river. You just need some stepping stones. We can feel guilty about putting ourselves first because there are so many other things that need to be looked after first. But be realistic about what you need. Stepping stones are really key just to managing your own energy le...
The first time I heard this, when I was 13, I was striving to be fully satisfied. It’s kind of a reality check. You see it a lot in relationships with people always striving for perfection, but “perfect’ is pretty unrealistic. What you want is to touch on fleeting moments that are perfect and grab them as they come. If you are always striving for p...
Everyone strives to be super cool and super rich and all these things, But I think the people who are genuinely the coolest are not those that are super rich, or super beautiful or have lots of amazing things. It’s those people who are just really happy with their lot. They have an aura of confidence around them. They love their family, love their ...
