A Central Fife woman has opened up a new hairdressing space in Lochgelly and has already been named as a finalist for an award.
Kerry Parrish, 45, opened a small hairdressing space in Lochgelly back in September.
She has lived in the town for two years now after living in both Crossgates and Cowdenbeath previously.
The space is located within the George Johnston House on Bank Street and is aimed towards people with anxiety or sensory issues.
Kerry had previously run Bliss in Cowdenbeath and has been a hairdresser for 30 years.
However, the new space is going from strength to strength, as she has now taken on more rooms.
Speaking to the Times, Kerry said: “We actually started off with one room within George Johnson House, I just rented a room and basically put two mirrors and chairs in it.
“I thought, I'm just going to please myself here, nice and chilled.
“I've now taken on three rooms, so they'll be opening on Monday (November 9) so we've got the makeup artist and I'm taking on more hairdressers.
“Then in the new year, we’ll be opening an academy, a training school, so it's grown a lot quicker than I expected!”
Despite just opening the space recently, Hair by Kerry has been shortlisted for the UK Hair and Beauty Awards 2027.
She added: “It's such a short space of time, I didn't expect it at all!
“The awards don't take place until next year, but to get into the finalists is amazing.”
In preparation for the Christmas season, Kerry is also taking nominations for a Christmas wish tree to support those who may need a little more support over the festivities.
