E4 books an appointment at The Super Salon (w/t)

8 May 2018

 

E4 has commissioned a brand new series, The Super Salon (4x60’), from Frieda TV with exclusive access to one of Britain’s largest and most unusual salons.

The programme will go behind the scenes at the two-floor Sheffield superstructure, home to nearly 50 stylists, beauticians and barbers as it follows their unique late-night pamper and party experience.

Known for their stellar coiffures, entertaining hospitality and tight-knit relationships with the salon regulars, the series will explore the personal stories shared over a cuppa as well as dancing on countertops with a hairbrush in hand! 

The series will delve into the family run business, owned by Cherise and her brother Dan, as it follows their hair-brained schemes to promote their business. With so much at stake, the show will reveal the inevitable fall-outs that come with running a family-owned empire.

The salon will be serving colourful characters, whether it’s a style overhaul for a night out with the girls or a father and son’s first visit for a cut it all happens at the Sheffield based salon. 

Jon Lloyd, Executive Producer says “As soon as you walk in to the Super Salon you realise you’ve never seen anything quite like it. The amazing staff and clients constantly amaze us and rigging this unique salon promises to offer huge laughs, lots of heart and astonishing stories.”

Speaking on the commission, Commissioning Editor for Channel 4, Simone Haywood says “We’re excited to bring this extraordinary salon and staff to a national audience with all the laughs, gossip and drama that comes with them. It promises to combine the cherished pastime of a trip to the salon with entertaining party personalities that we love so much here at E4.” 

The Super Salon (4x60’) was commissioned by Head of Formats, Dom Bird, Simone Haywood and Kate Maddigan, Commissioning Editors for Formats at Channel 4. It is a Frieda TV production from Executive Producer Jon Lloyd.
