Cullompton Hairmania team back together
A hairdresser is celebrating getting her team back under one roof after expanding into a new shop.
Donna Hawkins from Hairmania has moved to 21 Fore Street in Cullompton, making a short journey to the new location from where it first opened in 2004.
She explained: "We had a little shop down the road, but we outgrew it. With Covid-19, which set in, we had to put our girls onto a rota as we were only allowed to work two at the time, so the girls now work seven days a week to fit everybody in.
"The plan was to move last January, but Covid came, so that was put on hold, so it's been a long time coming.
"We're loving our new premises and having the space to be able to work together again as we haven't been able to for the past 14-months.
"To get everybody back together is brilliant."

She said the move was a quick process after the building became available when a previous offer by another party fell through.
"I had my eye on three shops, and this was my number one, and it just happened to be this was the one that came up, and it all happened within hours.
"Being here is more relaxed, we're in a more central location, and everybody's been amazing. We've had lots of help and offers to get us ready, including painting the outside of the shop."
The shop is now hoping to expand further with job opportunities available. If you are looking for employment, Donna is welcome to offers. Call 01884 35556 for more information.
