Hairdressers make way for new BB stylist

Hairdressers had better make way for the new celebrity stylist on the block, as Big Brother's Craig Coates opens his own salon in Pottergate, Norfolk.
Craig took part in Big Brother seven and almost made it to the final week before being the 11th housemate evicted.
But it seems the 21-year-old is unimpressed with fame and fortune and is just glad to be back making a living out of what he loves best.
One year on from his Big Brother experience, Craig now has the funds to make his dreams come true and has set up a trendy £250,000 L'Oreal salon in his home town.
He told the Advertiser: "I just wanted to bring a trendy salon to Norwich. If you go to other salons in the city most are very expensive. They charge London prices without having any of the London training."
Services on offer at Craig Coates Hairdressing include luxurious Kerastase rituals and retail products and a master colourist alongside Craig's cutting skills.
The interior features imported pure white floor tiles, floor to ceiling light boxes, a colour studio, Philippe Starck designed furniture and custom built mirrors backlit with mood lighting.
Craig told the Advertiser that Big Brother has undoubtedly opened doors in his quest to set up his own salon. But he adds: "It is my own hard work that has made all this happen. I think anyone can achieve anything if they work hard."
