Scarlet’s Hair and Beauty salon then came into fruition when the premises became available for rent and Scarlet had a conversation with her mum Tracey about the possibility of taking the shop on.

And now, Scarlet’s business is up and running offering a full range of hair services, including hair extensions, and a wide range of beauty treatments.

"It was amazing to open the salon, it took a long time to do but I was almost fully booked in my first week and it’s great,” Scarlet said.

Scarlet’s Hair and Beauty is opening Monday to Friday 9am to 4pm, and Saturday 9am to 3pm. Find out more at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100076185181060
