As well as being exciting, launching a new business is challenging and a little scary at the best of times. So to take on a 25 year lease and launch a new hair and beauty salon in the middle of a global pandemic takes some guts!
But partners Jade Hanley, Katy Brereton and Sally Smith are full of enthusiasm and are delighted with their choice of Shepperton for their new salon. “We are overwhelmed with the welcome we have had” says director Jade.
The salon has been fitted out in a stylish fash-ion, with bespoke stand alone mirrors, zoned areas and enough space for everyone to feel safe.
The girls opened the hair salon at the start of August and have been busy ever since. Many of their clients have followed them to Shep-perton (which is good for Shepperton) and locals are flocking in for a restyle. What strikes you about the team is their happy spir-it. The girls want to make it a fun and wel-coming place to visit. Everyone is chatty and warm, interested in their new “home” area and the local way of life. During the bank holiday weekend, which would usually have been the time of festivals and freedom, the team dressed in festival gear and decked the salon in bunting and played dance music. It was quite a scene. That theme of fun filled days is set to continue. The girls love a party.
As well as hair, Sisu & Glow will be offering a nail bar, with Biosculpture nails. There is a make up area for bridal and prom, or that special occasion (and why not?), and there is a beauty room where you can get brows and lashes done as well as aesthetics, Dermlogica facials and Sienna spray tans. These beauty services come under the direction of Sally Smith and are set by late October.
So you might be forgiven for planning on hanging out at the salon for a full makeover. This looks set to be a destination of choice for hen, prom and bridal parties. There is an emphasis on quality, with the team only using the best product ranges, including Kerasilk, Goldwell colour and KMS Style. All treatments are carried out by pro-fessionals; Director Katy has work featured in Hair Magazine and on the catwalk in Milan and London at Fashion Week; Director Jade is a qualified trainer of upcoming stylists, work-ing to get the best out of her apprentices.
I was invited in to sample the service and came out with a striking well cut look and some quality products to keep it in check. I have had lots of comments about the well cut hair, even from my regular hair dresser! They also offer a free fringe trim between cuts.
The team offer some great incentives to keep you coming back too. As well as the wel-come, the professional work and the London salon feel, who can not be tempted by the £100 for as many blow-dries as you want in 4 weeks? Or the 20% off for local businesses and key workers? Follow the girls on Face-book (Sisu & Glow Hairdressing and Beauty) and Instagram @sisuandglow to keep up with all their offers.
Make sure you get booked in. You will be well looked after.
