A salon near Bicester will be celebrating a relaunch this Friday with a party.

Sophie's Salon, based in Stratton Audley near Bicester, has undergone a refurbishment.

The party will showcase the refurbished salon with the training academy, called Connie's Academy, which has been open for a couple of months.

The event is free for anyone to attend and will take place between 6pm and 9pm at the salon.

Cocktails will be served until 8pm with complimentary prosecco on arrival, pizza from 6pm, and goodie bags on a first-come-first-serve basis.

The aim of the launch party is to invite existing clients, local businesses and potential new clients to have a look around the salon, meet the team and find out what treatments they are offering.

Charley Winters, business manager at the salon, said: “It’s a good opportunity to showcase everything and show where the business is at now.

“The signs have gone up, all furniture is in here, so we are now in a place to launch it and to get everyone in here to see it.

"Although we’re only five minutes out of Bicester, a lot of people say no to coming out here, even though we’re really not far at all.

"The team are excited - the work kept getting pushed back, so this has been on the cards for over a year."

The salon is situated at Unit 6A Willows Gate Business Park in Stratton Audley.
