i did not have any meetings explaining that my role was at risk, i actually popped in for my hair cut and was told i was being made redundant when i get back off maternity.

Then your boss is on dodgy ground already.

Have a search on the internet, write down everything you are entitled to in a redundancy situation and if she doesn't adhere to them she deserves to be taken to tribunal.

Don't do the leg work for her though, let her dig her own hole

Yip...my Friend has now ended up with 99% of her clientelle from the salon:rotfl:her ex employer wasnt long in asking her to come back to work for her when she realised she was losing most of her customers !

Just a suggestion but if you are going to hire a shop to work from its going to increase your overheads massively !

Your best bet is to start off going to clients homes , you would be surprised at how many people enjoy their hairdresser coming to them . You also would only have the price of your stock and pertrol to cover then instead of rent on the shop , heating , electric , kitting the shop out as a salon , business rates , public liability insurance...the list goes on !

i already do mobile in my own time which my boss was aware of when she employed me but i can only do 2 or 3 a day mobile, if i had my own shop i could triple that. the rent on the shop included all bills and u wudnt believe me if i told you how cheap the rent and bills actually were, i actually spend more in petrol in a week!

Well if the rent on the shop includes all bills then that seems like a good deal !
