Shows the joy and risk of independant salons and how much branding and promotion is needed in a competitive business. The banter and information exchange hasn't extended to hand washing after touching face/face masks though. Hopefully they will reassure viewers that they understand why hand washing before and after fitting their masks is important.

A great show showing the trials and tribulations of a super salon coping with a global pandemic, they just all got on with it and tried to be upbeat.
I would like to really understand some of the things they are doing a little more.

A great show
Where to start on this fly-on-the-wall drama, firstly I have never seen so many workers in a small workplace lol, it was cheek by jowl.
I think this programme stands as a warning to all those that think school is a waste of time, you could end up like this, in a vortex of fake grass, hair extensions and a toy dog called BamBam, only joking!
Beneath the over-made-up surface we see some really hard working and very kind people trying to get on in life and realise their dreams. They were so talented they could have "improved" Frankenstein's monster, not an easy environment to deliver on other people's dreams.
Things that were bad
Extolling having a tattoo as a form of self-expression on a young person, that will in time be regretted.
They were all plastered with make-up, less is more.
Too much emphasis on one type of beauty.
The salon owner is 31 and yet behaves like a giddy teenager, the show presented her interactions with Tom as superficial and largely unsustainable, who wants to be a trophy, and this misrepresented her, when she is trying to rebuild her life after a difficult time and she is a survivor and really a very serious person.
I totally hated the use of text messaging for communicating all the wrong things. I'm late, I want a chop for tea, not are you seeing someone else, this is how children behave. My advice face to face from now on!
