Ltd was incorporated in the UK in 2003 with the Acquisition of a salon called "Shampoo" in Russell Square, this had been a salon for many years and had been very busy and well known in London.

After an entire refit in 2003 the salon now operates under our CV Hair & Beauty brand. It is a full service salon which means that we incorporate beauty services into the concept. The turnover of the business has trebled under the new ownership. In 2007 the company started Cyvilian Hair Store which is an ecommerce online store supplying Hair products via the internet, this is now established and we have also recently acquired the name UK Hair Store. The next six months will see a consolidation of these brands. with plans to expand our salon division in spring 2009.
