About Snc
Owners of SNC Jo and Sarah are long time colleges turned friends, who have both had a passion for hairdressing from a young age. Short n Curly’s was the salon they both chose to learn this trade, Jo joining at age 18 followed by Sarah a few years later at age 15.
The previous owner Alf is a fantastic educator and was key to the salons amazing long future. Jo produced a high standard of work and trained way ahead of the required apprentice level.
Sarah joined Jo on the salon floor a few years later with a high quality of work. With Jo’s strength in Colour application and theory alongside Sarah’s strength in cutting, they became the perfect duo.
Friends now of 21 years, you’d think these two bicker! Well you couldn’t be more wrong, ones weakness is anothers strength which makes this pair the perfect salon partners.
When Jo became manager, Sarah became assistant manager and were instantly offered to purchase the salon from Alf. They wanted to carry on the great work Alf had started in 1974 whilst continuing to build and shape the salons future. They decided to give the salon a modern feel…..SNC Hairdressing is born.
