A POPULAR salon is looking better than ever after a total refurbishment to mark their 18th year of trading.

Kutz, in London Road, Lexden, has been completely refitted and reopened for business on Friday, with a special thank you event to customers held on Saturday.

The family run business is owned by Mandy Clarke and run by daughter Paige, who said she was delighted by how it was now looking.

She said: "It looks absolutely brilliant.

"A lot of people who have been in and out the door have commented on how fantastic it looked.

"As we are a family business, we like to support other local firms and we used Signace based on Peartree Road and their work has been fantastic.

"We gave them such a tight deadline but they managed to fit us in and we are so pleased."
