A brand new hair salon providing a specialist service to customers has opened up in Oulton Broad.
Rhiannon Clarke, 21, from Bungay, opened up Cloud 9 Hair Design at Golden Court on Bridge Road, Oulton Broad on May 4 2022.
While early on setting up, Miss Clarke has already established a strong customer base and has even brought little Dachshund, Lottie, to the new premises.
Talking about the inspiration behind setting up the business, Miss Clarke said: "Since I was really young I've always wanted to have my own hair salon premises.
"Thinking about having my own space and decorating it how I like has always been really important to me.
"I wanted to have my own freedom and not be tied down to anyone so I decided to take the plunge and start up my own business.
"I've always worked in a hair salon - starting a hair salon Saturday job aged 14 and then completing an apprenticeship.

As of this week the hair salon is going to have an exciting brand new addition.
Miss Clarke said: "We are really happy to announce we will have a salon puppy called Lottie who is a dachshund.
