Back To Business

A Longton hair salon has reopened its doors and is looking forward to helping people look and feel good

Lydia Pennington from Longton has been a hairdresser for the past 12 years, gaining vast experience as a trainee for Headlines, as well as going on to become a master colourist for Schwarzkopf.

Lydia opened her business, L Francesca, in February this year after transforming a ground floor unit off Liverpool Road into a luxurious hair salon with a bespoke interior, where anyone would want to go to feel relaxed and pampered. It is the first salon for the blossoming businesswoman.

“I had been looking for the perfect location to open my own salon for a while when this unit in the heart of Longton became available. It just made sense that I would go back to the village that I know so well.”

“I’ve always wanted my own beautiful salon where people enjoyed going. It should still feel like a treat having your hair done and it’s my job to make you feel like a million dollars. Unfortunately, not long after we opened, we had to close due to Covid-19, but I’m now back up and running and looking forward to helping people feel like those million dollars. It’s been a difficult time for everyone but it’s amazing how good you feel after a good style and treatment.”

The salon provides a wide range of hair treatments with Lydia offering the full Goldwell Colour range. She works with the Olaplex range, which can be maximised with the home treatments which are available at the salon.

Lydia said: “My purpose is to make the people of Longton and surrounding area have beautiful hair that they are proud of. Whether you want the latest cut or colour or just fancy a blow dry before a night out then I can help. If it is your big day this year, I specialise in wedding hair and we also offer make-up, so you can create your whole look in one place.”

In addition to the salon, Lydia also has a bespoke hair accessory business called Primrose Rox. Products are stocked in the salon and can create the finishing touch to your look.

Lydia is keen to be part of the thriving Longton business community and looks forward to welcoming new customers and old ones back.
