Our Story
In 1981 Ron Smith opened his first salon in the Villa Marina arcade, throughout the ’80s, ’90s, and '00s he had a total of 8 salons throughout the Island, he retired after 30 successful years in business and sold on the Ron Smiths business and trading name to myself (Lydia) in 2012 where I continued to run the two existing salons in Douglas town centre Castle St and Howard St for 10 years. As the business successfully made it through COVID in 2021 with a re brand and the introduction of our Virtual Queue System I opened a third salon on Douglas Promenade, a busy out of town salon with great views and parking. in 2022 after approximately 38 years of Ron Smiths trading on Howard Street I decided to close this salon mainly due to spiraling high street costs and the loss of a few members of staff. So now with 2 salons in completely different areas of Douglas we can still continue to offer the great service that we always have for the past 41 years.
Our Stylists
We have a team of 6 members of staff that between them have more than 130 years in the hairdressing and barbering industry, a real wealth of knowledge and experience that allows us to be at the forefront of change and style whether it’s the ‘flattop’ of the ’80s, the ‘step’ of the ’90s or the
‘Bieber cut’ of the '00s or the quiffs and comb-overs of the 10’s
Our Salon
Our salon on Queens Prom was opened in April 2021 has our vibrant splash of colour and bespoke wallpaper and has become our main salon. Open 7 days a week and with the easy to parking outside it has become popular for after-work and last-minute weekend cuts. Plenty of places to browse or grab a coffee whilst waiting in our virtual queue. in 2020 we re-branded the business and refreshed this salon making it feel more spacious, adding a splash of colour, bespoke wallpaper and generally giving it a fresh new feel, a simple, busy salon.
