A HAIRDRESSER and beautician is celebrating a decade of business in Crewe, having opened the salon’s doors as a 19-year-old.

Lilli’s Beauty and Barber marks its tenth anniversary on Monday, July 31, with owner Lilli taking pride in retaining a £5 gent’s cut.

She said: “I was 19 years old and as nervous as a kitten to be starting my own business and every day was a challenge I can tell you. I have succeeded, enjoyed it and I love my clients who have all been so very supportive over the years.”

The shop has been in business for almost 70 years in total at the Flag Lane premises, and Lilli also offers beauty services for everyday or special occasions.

Call the salon on 01270 509333 or drop in for more information.
