A holistic hairdresser has brought her vision to life after opening her first salon in Stourport. 

Shirl Ariton has more than 25 years of experience as a hairdresser and has worked at numerous salons during her career as well as previously operating from her home. 

Despite her experience in the industry, Ms Ariton wanted to provide a welcoming space for clients that could offer both hair and wellbeing treatments after she trained to become a reflexologist.

The self-employed hairdresser said: "My vision behind my business is to make my clients feel amazing on the inside and the outside when they leave the salon.

"I have a lovely salon space for a one-to-one client basis. To make you feel truly relaxed and pampered there will be a complimentary hand and arm massage while your colour is taking. 

"Fresh coffee from beans, a range of teams and hot chocolates will also be available for refreshments. The salon will be open from Monday to Friday. Yes you heard that right, we're open on a Monday."
