A salon which has been operating from Lytham for 14 years has announced its relocation to Wrea Green.

Twin sisters Natalie Crank and Natasha Langthorne joined forces to run a salon, which was part of a national franchise group.

After 10 years they decided to launch their own salon brand – HEIR – which operated from Park Street in Lytham.

Now, they have decided to relocate to 17 Ribby Road, Wrea Green.

The duo said HEIR is not only a tribute to their late Nanna,  a ‘truly special and inspirational’ predecessor, but also for all of the ‘strong women who inspire, educate, nurture and encourage’. 

The new Lancashire location was also once home to the original Pat Graham Salon, founded in 1967 by Natalie’s first mentor – Pat Wood.

Pat, a two-time British Hairdresser of the Year, was a major influence on Natalie’s early career, having guided her early years in the industry.

Natalie said: Relocating HEIR Salon to Wrea Green is a significant and meaningful step for us. This historic venue at 17 Ribby Road is where Pat Wood, my first mentor and a two-time British Hairdresser of the Year, began her remarkable career in 1967 with the opening of Pat Graham Hair Salon.

“While I didn’t work in this location myself, Pat’s guidance had a profound impact on my journey in hairdressing, and it’s a privilege to continue the legacy of excellence that began here. This move allows us to create a space that honours the past while providing our team and clients with a fresh, inspiring environment. We’re truly thankful for the trust and support of our team and clients as we continue to grow and evolve together”.
