How It All Started
Find out where it all began
Helen started grooming at just 15 years old, accidentally while volunteering at a rescue centre. Not being able to resist sneaking into the salon on her lunch breaks and picking a brush, the groomer was more than willing to start training her up to be a groomer.
It wasn't before long Helen was perfecting her finishing touches on a westie and continued to groom for the following 5 years. After a career change of working in a bank for 10 years, Helen decided it was time to do what she had always dreamed of, setting up her own grooming salon.
Helen started off by converting her garage at home, after only 6 months Helen had outgrown her garage and struggled to cope with the demand for grooming. Helen realised that there was a shortage of groomers in the area so expanded her dream business into an independent salon in town, making the way for more groomers to assist her in pampering all the pooches.
