A new hair salon has opened on Heckler Lane in Ripon.

Owners Kyra Dodsworth, 21, and Shannon McCarthy, 25, opened Salon Twenty Three last week after working together at a Northallerton salon for seven years.

Krya said Shannon spotted the unit and presented the idea of opening their own salon.

The pair got the keys on August 1 and opened to the public a month later when renovations were complete.

The salon offers traditional hairdressing services, including cuts, colours, styling and treatments for both men and women.

Hair extensions and wedding hair services are also available.

The women posted on social media:

"A lot of blood, sweat and tears has gone into making our dream become our reality!
"Such a “pinch me” moment for us both, I’m sure one day it will feel real but for now it’s still not sunk in that our dream is no longer just a dream."


Kyra told the Stray Ferret an additional room in the salon that, once decorated, will hopefully be used to offer beauty services as well.

The salon is currently open Monday to Saturday.
