Thank You to everyone who has walked through our doors, trusted us with your hair, your stories and often your vulnerability. Your loyalty and support are the heart of Hair Story.
To our friends, family and followers who take the time to like, comment, share, or hype us up online you’re part of this too. We see you and we couldn’t do it without you. We are a small, local business trying to stay afloat in an industry that isn’t always kind. Hairdressing has changed. The costs are higher, the competition is louder and keeping a business running around school pick ups and family life is no small feat.
Once again, we’ve been overwhelmed by the love and generosity this time of year brings. The gifts, the cards, the Prosecco for the end of the day (never before 😄). And to those who drop treats in throughout the year, it never goes unnoticed. Whether it’s chocolates, coffee, biscuits, or a sausage roll, thank you. It all means more than you know.
We even received a poem from one of our clients this year. It was so touching that when she read it out to me and Emma in the salon on our last day we both cried. It hit every emotion at once, it made us laugh and cry at the same time. We will treasure it always.
This year also brought change within our little salon family. We said goodbye to Hannah which was heartbreaking to lose her from the diary, but we haven’t lost her from our lives. Still our friend, always loved. And we gained a new stylist, Beckii, who has stepped in with energy, kindness and talent, and fitted right into the chaos like she was always meant to be here. And that says a lot about who we are. We build friendships that last far beyond the salon chair.
We are officially taking a well deserved break with our families and we’ll be back open on the 6th January. But for now, the phone is off, the diary is closed and we are proudly, unapologetically, out of office.
To each and every one of you, I appreciate you more than I can put into words. Thank you for choosing us, rooting for us and reminding us why we do what we do.
In a world where small businesses are fighting to survive, you helped us live.
With love always,
Jacqueline 🧡
