From Mum-on-a-Mission to Salon Owner: Why I Built Ivy Reign to Be Different

When I started Ivy Reign, it wasn’t just about hair or beauty. It was about healing.
It was about creating a space for women to walk in feeling tired, overwhelmed, burnt out... and walk out feeling seen, valued, and like the most beautiful version of themselves – inside and out.
I wasn’t always the confident, driven woman I am today. Like many of you, I’ve been through the trenches of self-doubt. I was a young mum, stretched between nappies and night feeds, trying to find my way in a world that didn’t exactly hand me a manual for success. I didn’t grow up around business mentors or role models in this industry. I had to figure it out, the hard way.
I built Ivy Reign as a reflection of the place I needed when I was struggling: warm, empowering, welcoming, and a little bit boujee. Not just somewhere to get a haircut, but somewhere to get your sparkle back.
Every woman that sits in one of our chairs has a story. You’re juggling work, kids, businesses, families, healing, growth, heartbreak, love, goals, and God knows what else. And sometimes? You just need a moment where someone pours you a drink, asks how you are, and actually listens.
At Ivy Reign, we see you.
We celebrate your messy bun and your glam blow-dry. Your no-makeup days and your full-face slay. Your stressed-out scrolls and your 10/10 selfie moments. This salon isn’t about perfection — it’s about real women who are done hiding and ready to reclaim their confidence.
We don’t just offer treatments – we offer transformation. We don’t just do lashes – we lift moods. We don’t just style hair – we restore energy.
And my team? They’re the heartbeat of this place. Each one has their own story, passion, and gift. Together, we’ve built something that feels more like a family than a business.
So whether you’re new to the area, or just new to putting yourself first, know this: Ivy Reign was built for you.
We can’t wait to welcome you in.
With love,
Charlotte x
Owner of Ivy Reign Hair & Beauty
