Since starting the salons in 2014, KW Group a division of LECAW Investment Group Ltd have gone from strength to strength, adding 4 more salons to the group across Derbyshire. With an ever-growing team of talented and creative individuals, KW are providing the very best in service at reasonable prices.
Continual in-house training and development is part of our ethos, with L’Oreal, Olaplex and GHD visiting the salons regularly to update us on product improvements and new techniques and styles.
