Jaki .. Salon Owner

Jaki has over 30 years experience in the beauty industry. She first opened a nail studio and after much encouragement from her clients, she returned to college and completed her NVQ Beauty Level 3. From there she went on to becoming a part-time beauty tutor herself, sharing her skills and knowledge and attaining a Level 1 (top mark) for her teaching techniques.

Joy .. Massage Therapist 
This is what Joy wanted to say...
"I qualified as a Beauty Therapist at Kendal College, this led me to working as a makeup artist for a local photographer for 2 yrs. Followed on from there as a Nail artist. The opportunity came about with The Studio for me to use my beauty Therapy skills where I had 9 wonderful years.
I met my husband and when we started our family I took a break to bring up our 3 lovely children.
I was incredibly lucky to be able to return to my true passion at The Hair & Beauty Studio (formerly The Studio) for almost 3 years now, recently completing a pregnancy massage course".
