The hair stylist wants to revamp the music mogul's hair to give him an on-trend look ahead of the BGT live shows.

The top celebrity hairdresser would also love to give former Prime Minister Boris Johnson a much-needed mega hair makeover.

Ricky said: "Over the years I’ve styled hair for Sandra Bullock, Will.i.am and Arnold Schwarzenegger – all of my clients are very special.

"If I could pick any celebrity to do next – I would pick Simon Cowell.

"I reckon he has quite tough hair, I’d like to have a go at it.

"I feel like I could get my hands on his hair and do a good fade on that head of hair."

Ricky, who started his hairdressing career at the age of 16 in a small salon in Pinner, said he'd also work his magic on some of the world's most famous politicians.

"I’d like to do Boris Johnson and Donald Trump's hair – I think these guys could all do with a little bit of attention," he laughed.

Salon64 is a swish hair salon by day but after dark, the venue - changes its name to Club 64 and transforms into one of the capital's coolest clubs.

The popular venue has already been visited by the likes of supermodel Jodie Kidd, The Masked Singer's Joel Dommett and Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts.

Ricky revealed that styling hair for the rich and famous is less of a job and more of an experience.

The Sun has spotted a number of stars on the salon's official Instagram page - from EastEnders Rose Ayling-Ellis, to TV presenter Laura Whitmore and footballer Gary Neville.

"Seeing my clients is like catching up with old friends and the hair comes second, even though we do incredible hair, it’s always nice to see those faces," he said.

"I always love seeing in the salon or whether we’re styling their hair for award ceremonies.

"If they’ve got a really formal award ceremony, they’d pick maybe a more formal hair up or if it’s everyday then maybe a beach wave, depending on what they are doing that day.

"I’ve worked with the London Comedy scene for a number of years – we do a lot of stand up comedians," Ricky shared.

"The comedians are a bit like every job, I don’t walk around cutting hair all the time, but the comedians who come into Salon64, they’re very funny people."

"It’s very much a huge home away from home and a massive focus on the community in the middle of Soho that you only know about us if you know about us."
