Hillside Business Park – Mikaela’s Hair Salon

Mikaela's new business at Hillside Business Park

Mikaela Ford travelled to City College Plymouth in 2010 to undertake VRQ Level 2 & 3 barbering and spray tanning qualifications and upon her return to the Islands in 2012 began her hairdressing career.

In 2015 she began her self-employed journey and established her own business, Mikaela’s Hair Salon, offering her services to her clients from the comfort of their own homes. Since then Mikaela has completed a qualification in Brazilian Blow-dries and along with this offers a range of services including colouring, cutting, spray tanning and scalp treatments.

Having now moved into her new premises as one of the first tenants of Hillside Business Park, Mikaela is excited to expand her client base and have a stable base of operations. In the future she hopes that the additional space will allow her to offer a placement for school students at the annual careers fair and work experience week.
