Expansion for Harrogate Hairdresser and National Recognition

As published in the Harrogate Advertiser July 2011

Expansion for Harrogate Hairdresser and National Recognition

Popular Harrogate hair salon Dangerfield & Keane has more than doubled the size of its Coldbath Road premises.

Since it was set up by well-known local stylist Gerri Keane three years ago, the salon has increased from four to 16 staff and has now undergone a large extension at the rear of the salon to create 12 work stations and a dedicated reception area.

As well as seeing the business thrive despite the recession, Gerri has also received national recognition from leading New York-based hair product supplier Bumble & bumble, which is part of the Estee Lauder Group of companies.  Having attending the company’s business development seminar in London 18 months ago, he was last month invited to return – this time to teach other hair salons about sound business practice.

“We’ve worked hard over the last three years and have been very fortunate that we have been able to build up a loyal base of clients which has led to us needing to increase salon space by over 50 per cent,” said Gerri.  “After four months’ building work, we now have more work stations and stylists as well as a more pleasant environment for clients with an air conditioned and spacious salon, and we are now working on the garden area where they can relax during appointments.

“As well as celebrating the recent completion of the new look salon, I was also honored to be chosen by Bumble and bumble to teach other salons about how to make a success of their business.  It makes a refreshing change for an independent regional hair salon to be recognised in this way – I’m glad to be putting Harrogate on the hairdressing map!”

Dangerfield & Keane Hair and Beauty salon partner with 97.2 Stray FM as radio sponsors for the Harrogate Race for Life for the 3rd year running

Dangerfield & Keane has announced that it will be working with 97.2 Stray FM as radio partners & sponsoring Harrogate’s Race For Life radio coverage for the third year, in aid of Cancer Research UK.

The move comes as Dangerfield & Keane continues to reinforce its position as one of Harrogate’s leading hair & beauty salons.

Soon to celebrate its second anniversary Dangerfield & Keane saw such positive results from the previous year’s sponsorship of the event that it wanted to consolidate the company’s link with such a worthwhile cause.

Last year’s Race For Life saw over 3000 local women walk, jog or run the 5 kilometre course at the Great Yorkshire Showground and raised over £150,000 in the process.

Gerri Keane, Director of Dangerfield & Keane said;

“I was amazed at the determination of women of all ages who completed the course. Many of the runners wore the name of a loved one touched by this dreadful disease – a disease that affects 1 in the 3 people in the UK. As a reward for the superb efforts of all involved it is only fitting that everyone should receive a small personal reward for raising money for this good cause. That is why every participant will be given a £10 voucher, available to download, towards any hair & beauty treatment in our salon on Cold Bath Road.”
