Louise said: “The salon is owned by all three of us equally, opening a salon together is a dream come true and something we have talked about doing for years.

“As mother and daughters covering all aspects of hair and beauty it’s a perfect mix having us all under one roof.

“Ohana is a Hawaiian term meaning family, so it was the perfect name for us and our family run salon.

“Just like the film Lilo and Stitch ‘no one gets left behind’ which means we will be bringing our two Dogs Marley and Pablo who our clients love and adore from our home salon so of course they will be coming with us.”
