Guinot opens latest beauty franchise in London
Published: 17 December 2015

In need of a bit of a pre-Christmas makeover? Then check out Guinot beauty’s latest salon opening in Earlsfield, London. Last month, franchisee Justyna Rostek was joined by Nicola Nardelli, the Mayor of Wandsworth, and celebrity chef, Ainsley Harriott, to cut the ribbon and officially open the new salon.
Justyna Rostek is Guinot’s newest franchisee, however she is not new to the brand, as she was formerly the manager at Guinot’s flagship salon in Albemarle Street, Mayfair.
The salon’s opening night was planned to coincide with the switching on of the Earlsfield Christmas lights. Justyna raised the profile of the salon in the local community prior to the launch by being a headline sponsor for the event, which included marketing campaigns executed by Wandsworth Council, with direct mail and online activity.
Justyna says, “It has always been an ambition of mine to run my own salon, but it was a daunting prospect to go out alone and make a name for myself. It was because of this that I was attracted to the idea of becoming a franchisee, as I will be part of an established network that receives ongoing support and advice from a dedicated franchise team.
“So far the team has helped me every step of the way, and I know that this support will continue throughout the life of my franchise agreement. As a new business looking to get established in an area, it’s a great to be able to trade under such a well-known brand name. The ongoing marketing support I will receive as a franchisee will be invaluable.”
Guinot franchises offer the latest innovations in non-invasive beauty treatments, including facials, hair removal, slimming and contouring body treatments, as well as Shellac manicures and pedicures.
