Speaking with Katie she said: "I used to be self-employed for six years so this felt like the natural progression for myself and I've never been more excited.
"We are in the heart of Darlington which has been amazing and now we are starting to complete the finishing touches its even better."
Katie added: "The building is beautiful it is a Grade 2 listed building with so much natural light and stunning ceilings its a real pleasure to have our shop here.
"The response has been amazing and everyone has loved coming to the new salon as we've received so many compliments.
"It's something I have always wanted to do every since my Great Nana used to go to the hairdressers every Friday. I then became their Saturday girl at the age of 14 and ever since have wanted to do this job.
"The atmosphere from this salon and job was always something I wanted to replicate for myself."
