Comments:
"Mel does make-overs, cuts hair and shapes wigs. In the past, she was a makeup artist for Geri Halliwell. Her place is a little hard to find the first time you go there. It is behind the Union Hotel. Ring her first for directions." - Jan.

"Mel did an excellent make-over for me for the 2007 Seahorse Ball. She also trimmed my wig into a much better shape. Her service is friendly and she is lots of fun to talk with.
In February 2008, Mel cut and style my own hair into a femme style, so I can now go out without a wig. The girls at Seahorse were really impressed, when I turned to the meeting with my new hairstyle.
Mel now does my hair regularly and I always leave there feeling and looking like a million dollars." - Christine.
