It's a family affair as glamorous new hair salon opens
After a long career working for other hair salons, Kelly Dove, from Sarisbury Green, decided to open Hair Lux, in Shore Road, Warsash, last month.
The 39-year-old took over the former estate agents office earlier this year and set about refurbishing it and creating the glamorous hair salon.

‘Now we are in our third week of business, it’s still busy. It has been really positive. We are all working hard.’
The salon is offering all types of hair services and Kelly says she is proud to be using L’Oreal products and has seen great results with Smartbond for colouring.
Kelly said the team had settled in to the community well. She said: ‘It is really nice to be in the village.
“Everybody has been really friendly.’
