BRIDGEWATER salon Ergo and Mane, has extended its range of services to include beauty and barbering.
With the addition of local beauty therapist Emily Turnbull to the team, the salon is able to offer a wide selection of new services in addition to the hairdressing services already available.
Salon owner Amanda Goodman said: “I’m so excited that Emily has joined us here! I’m so glad we were able to source someone local to perform beauty services.”
While Emily is new to the salon, she joins her older sister Sarah, who is a hairdresser there.
Amanda said he focus was on employing local people for the salon to support the community.
“The sibling connection for Emily and Sarah in addition to her living in Bridgewater is the cherry on top for her,” Amanda said.
Emily has previously trained through Endota spa and is looking forward to sharing her expertise and skills with beauty clinics at the salon.
Amanda has also taken on a hairdressing apprentice Mary Fisher, another Bridgewater resident.
“We’re so fortunate to have Mary with us, we can’t wait to pass on our skills and share our knowledge.” Amanda said.
Mary started her apprenticeship at the salon, and has just received her first pair of scissors, a milestone for her as beginner hairdresser.
Both Mary and Amanda are excited for Mary’s journey as an apprentice at the salon.
With the renovations to the historic former store and newsagency creating a beauty room, the salon has also added a barber’s room to the building.
While currently they will not have a designated barber, all the hairstylists are trained in men’s hair and will be able to use the barber room.
“I’d love to get a barber in a few days a week further down the track as we grow and have more demand for one.” Amanda said.
