SNIPPERS from a popular Weymouth hairdressers will strut their stuff in a Halloween-themed fashion show for charity.

Staff from Blondz, on St Edmund Street, are hosting Drop Dead Gorgeous, a hair, beauty and fashion event at Weymouth Pavilion tomorrow to raise money for Headway.

Headway is a national charity that offers support, information and advice to people who have suffered serious brain injuries and helps them in the recovery process.

Nichola Walker, owner of Blondz, decided to dedicate the show to the charity after being contacted by local fundraiser Elysia Munday.

Mrs Walker said: “We have been working with Elysia in the run up to the event.

“She almost lost her sister a year ago and the charity really helped her and her family, and she wanted to give something back to the charity to say thanks.

“We are always willing to support charities, and I think Headway is an amazing charity; they really did help Elysia’s sister and her family.”

Twelve models, some of whom are hairdressers at the salon, will exhibit Halloween-themed fashion and show off their spooky hair styles, which will be modelled by other Blondz staff.

As well as the fashion show, the first 50 people who arrive at the Pavilion on Sunday will be given a bag of hair products, donated by renowned hair care firm Kevin Murphy.

It is the first major charity event the store has hosted since Nichola Walker purchased the salon from Shaun Hennessey six months ago.

Mrs Walker is well known to the salon’s clients, having worked as a hair stylist there for more than 12 years. Since becoming owner, she has recruited more stylists in a bid to expand the hairdressers.

She said she hoped the fashion show would raise hundreds of pounds for Headway and also add to the salon’s reputation.

She added: “I believe going into a salon is more than just getting your hair done. My goal is to get Blondz well known for offering the best customer experience every time.”

Tickets for the event can be bought from Blondz or on the door at Weymouth Pavilion for £10. For more information, contact the salon on 01305 785374.
