Celebrations are underway as KH Hair Ripley reaches a 40 year milestone in the town for delivering outstanding hair services and first-class customer service.
KH Hair Ripley first opened in Grosvenor Road in 1984, moving a few doors down to larger premises in 2002. Following expansion in 2007, the salon underwent a further re-fit in 2014 and has just undergone a celebratory spruce up within the last month. Salon director, Sarah Storer, has worked at KH Hair since leaving school in 1986. She now leads a 13-strong team which has built up an enviable reputation in the town for delivering first-class customer service.
Passion for Growth and Development
Having seen a great many changes over the last 40 years, Sarah says she is proud to have kept the business going through various challenges including recession and the Covid pandemic. “We are really passionate about continual development for all staff at KH Hair, says Sarah. “I think that’s one of the reasons our clients have stayed with us. We have seen many businesses come and go in Ripley so we are proud that our hard-working teams – past and present – and our loyal clients, have placed us among the longest-serving salons in KH Hair Group’s 104 year history.”
Award Winners
Earlier this year, the salon picked up a hat trick of trophies at the KH Hair’s annual award ceremony where the team collected the Salon Service Award (for the third year running) and the Salon Retail Improvement Award (sponsored by Sebastian). 1st Year apprentice, Ellie Copeland, was the winner of her year’s training competition. During the evening, longest-serving team member, Beth, also gained recognition for reaching her 30th year with the Group.
Darren Messias, Managing Director of the KH Hair Group adds: “We are so proud of Sarah and all of the team for reaching 40 years in business. Sustaining any business for this length of time is a fantastic achievement, but to continually provide excellent service and maintain those high standards is something to be celebrated and applauded. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our loyal and supportive clients and, of course, our teams past and present, as we wouldn’t be here without you.”
