New year new me!!

If only a tiny fraction of your clients felt the same as I did on New Year's Day, you'll be doing a roaring trade over the next few weeks as people embark on their new health and beauty regimes. As always, I'm starting the year with great intentions - eat healthily, exercise more and generally try and make an effort with my appearance. With the big 40 only a year away, I can't take anything for granted anymore. Now would certainly be a great time for salons offering the whole hair and beauty mix to start marketing special "New Year New You" packages. After 10 days of binge eating, I feel like there's a whole extra me to carry around, so losing some weight is resolution one. But for many people a new haircut and image will be the tonic they need to kick start their New Year - that's on my list for mid January, first I need to shed half a stone so I can fit in the styling chair!! Happy New Year everyone! Matthew
