The Boutik Salon Refit Update

How long is the refit going to take?

We are looking at a three-week refit of the salon with as little disruptions as possible. The importance of retaining a great service to you is vital throughout so we have planned the refit in such a way that any impact will be kept to an absolute minimum.

So, are you closed for three weeks?

Not at all. The salon is open throughout the three week period although not all treatments are available. The following should give you an idea of what is open and when…

Week 1 – Mon 16th Oct – Sun 22nd Oct

  • CLOSED – Hair
  • OPEN – Beauty, nails, and lashes

Week 2 – Mon 23rd Oct – Sun 29th Oct

  • OPEN – Hair
  • OPEN – Beauty, nails, and lashes

Week 3 – Mon 30th Oct – Sun 5th Oct

Salon shopfront refit

Why are you carrying out a refit?

Prior to April 2017 the salon co-existed in the same building as two separate businesses. The hair salon was originally Flicks Hair and the beauty side was called The Boutik. Flicks Hair had been serving the local community for over 10 years in the Plymstock area whilst The Boutik beauty salon had originally been based from Plympton but moved into the back of the building in 2016.

On taking over the hair business in May 2017 we have been working tirelessly to not only stabilise the businesses and combine them, but also in the build up to 2018 planning a complete refit to the salon, its equipment, and the layout of the building.

Ok, well are you planning a name change to the salon?

We have been serving you as the The Boutik – Hair, Beauty, Nails & Lashes since May 2017. Moving forward we will continue to work under this name although you may see The Boutik Salon more within are advertising and promotions from time to time. Same logo, same team, same great service.

What are you planning to change then?

For those who have visited the salon in the past 6 months you will have noticed the distinct different between the original styles of both businesses previously. The entire salon will have a fresh new look and feel. The front of shop, hair stations & wash area have in particular been needing some TLC. We will also be increasing the number of nails stations, new lash stations, a new dedicated beauty room and much more.

We have already carried out improvements to our staff and kitchen areas, new shop front windows plus an upgrade to the staff and customer toilets is being finalised.

You hope you will notice the difference in not only how the salon looks but our ability to provide you with an even better service. That’s all we’re going to reveal for now though!

I’ve been coming to the salon for many years and feel concerned with all this change… should I be?

In short no, not at all. Please be assured that we have taken every step to make sure that you will still experience that same local salon experience and that our values as a business will be the same. The entire team is looking forward to welcoming you back; just be aware that they are a little excited with the refit and the new look!

And after the refit what can we expect?

We love our customers, we love our location, we love our staff and we can’t wait to love and share our brand-new salon with you. You can expect the same great treatments and service but all within a relaxing new salon experience.

We believe we have something unique to offer our customers across Plymstock, Plymouth and further into Devon. A great local salon service where you can relax and enjoy your time as our team take care of you. We offer a huge range of high quality hair and beauty treatments for men, women, and children, all in one location. Where else can you go and have a relaxing massage, a quick cut and blow-dry, a polish of those nails and lash check and infill… all part of the same appointment and in one location!

We have free salon parking so no need to pay that extra cost at the parking meter. Also… we are an award-winning salon for 2017!

Anything else you wish to add?

We want to give a massive thanks to our customers over the past six months. We appreciate your patience and loyalty during this time and your understanding as the initial works were carried out in September. We look forward to welcoming you back during this very exciting period for The Boutik.

Please check back over the coming weeks as we provide updates on how the refit is progressing. We may even provide some sneaky sneaky snaps of the changes underway!
