TRACIE GUNNINGHAM JUDGES REGIONAL HAIR COMPETITION

September 12, 2016 TRACIE GUNNINGHAM

Skills Group Exeter

Tracie Gunningham accepted a place on the judging panel for the Skills Group hair show in exeter.

With plenty of talent on show, the decision making was tough, but the 30 years of hairdressing experience came in handy when it came down to the final cut.

Tracie Gunningham said ' I find it so refreshing to see how much effort and natural talent and flair there is in the hairdressing industry, some entrants only had 6 weeks experience and what they manage to create on stage in 30 minutes is truly incredible'.

ENVY BWY TURNS 13

June 2, 2015 TRACIE GUNNINGHAM

HAPPY 13th BIRTHDAY BWY

THANKS TO MY BRILLIANT TEAM.

13 years ago today, Tracie Gunningham bought ENVY BWY, after selling a smaller salon that she'd had for two years previous.

ENVY has definitely seen a lot of changes since moving in 13 years ago. Unfortunately not all positive ones, Envy is currently surrounded by empty units, the Natwest bank is moving out, it's a concerning time for them as a business.

THANKFULLY, the brilliant team have enabled the business to be a stable one, however growth within this location is slow, due to declining foot flow, as people are no longer seeing The Broadway as a great place to visit.

ENVY WOULD LIKE TO THANK MY TEAM AND THE BWY SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY, without their hard work and commitment to actively market us, Envy would have no 'walkin trade ' coming through ours doors. The walkin trade has dropped by 2/3 in 13 years.

Envy BWY is to undergo a makeover, in the next few months, this will consist of new signage, new chairs, new backwash and reception area, new lighting, the idea is to bring the interior branding of all 3 salons together.

Let's see what the next year brings.
