Running a salon is something I truly love, Iāve had Locks&Lashes now 6 years! A successful 6 years itās been but this year feels slightly different. like many businesses right now weāre feeling the impact of the rising cost of living. To run a salon or a shop prices have increased significantly, and the cost of professional salon products continues to rise too.
More shops are closing especially in station lane š itās no longer what it used to be! I used to offer a brow bar where people would be queuing out of the door, weād have makeup Saturdays and busy blow drys but this no longer seems to be. We try our hardest all of the girls in the salon to provide the latest trends, products & offers but whilst doing this we have families, children to feed homes to run!
At the same time, many people understandably have to be more careful with their spending, which means salon visits are sometimes pushed back or spaced out more than usual.
As a small business, we always try our best to keep our prices fair while still providing high-quality services, products, and the relaxing experience everyone deserves. Every single appointment genuinely makes a difference and helps support local business.
If youāve been thinking about booking in for a a little self-care, weād absolutely love to see you in the salon. Your support truly means the world. āļøāØwe also have my lovely sister Claire who now as her own travel agents in the salon offering something different to the normal salon vibes! You book a holiday thatās safe & secure with her whilst enjoying coming in for treatments with us! We want to give you everything we can whilst enjoying coming to visit us!
Thank you to everyone who continues to support small businesses like ours ā it never goes unnoticed. š
