Vicky
Senior Stylist -Vicky qualified in 2004 and has worked in many prestigious hairdressers in and around Lancashire.
Vicky’s experience has not only lead her to create beautiful hair styles but also gave her the knowledge and confidence to have the ability in colour correction.
Vicky has a loyal and longstanding client base which means currently her diary is full at this time and unfortunately cannot take on any new clients.

Abby qualified Jan 2022 since then has undergone additional training. Loving every aspect of hairdressing Abby loves creating creative colours, and can be seen modelling some of them herself.
Woody
The actual boss of all of us – You will only see Woody in the shop if Laura is mingling about.
He absolutely loves all the girls and can often be found getting sneaky cuddles. He may bark a little at you at first but if you have a treat in your pocket he’ll be your best mate.
He also likes to sit on your knee if your having your hair dried (we dont charge for this service) 🙂
On a serious note, Woody is not in the salon permanently and removed (because of the barking if we have a relaxing treatment booked in). However if you do have any issues with dogs, either a fear or an allergy please do let us know and we will remove him straight away.
