Colour Sensation at Imagine Hairdressing

Posted by Kate
Dated: May 22, 2009 3:20 PM

Step into Imagine Hairdressing and you will experience a gorgeous space filled with bright stripes, chrome curves, retro wood effects and colourful lighting.

The result is a warm but elegant pop art feel that reflected owners Lee and Heidi Spencer's strong ideas for the salon. "We wanted to create a colourful, modern and open salon with bags of personality," says Lee.

They also wanted to distance themselves from the minimal style that many salons favour, as Heidi explains: "The space feels less clinical than some other salons. Introducing colour made a massive difference to the end result."
