ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three gives viewers an insight into the booming business of hair, as Angels Of The North is set to land on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer
Brand new ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three series Angels Of The North (8x15’) will give viewers an access all areas pass to Longlox, a real life ‘pre-party’ hair extensions super salon in Tyneside, documenting the highs and lows of its stylists.
It’s a dream come true to have my own super salon… and an even bigger dream to be on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three with my ‘Mamager’ and my Longlox family. Can’t wait to see it!
Made by Twenty Six 03 Entertainment, Angels Of The North will premiere exclusively on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer soon.
The salon is owned by Sammyjo Pearson, 31, and managed by ‘Mamager’ Bev, alongside their Longlox Girls, a team of young, funny, talented and ambitious hair experts, all under the age of 23. Many people become hairdressers, but these stylists are learning that it takes a lot more to be a Longlox girl.
Angels Of The North gives a candid insight into all the action from the salon, as well as following the stylists after hours from bonding nights out to milestone purchases made from hard-earned wages. The Longlox family work hard, play hard and then work hard some more.
The beating heart of the series is Sammyjo, who juggles her creative vision of making her salon the most Instagrammable in the north east, alongside managing her team’s fractious and hilarious relationships - not to mention her own turbulent love life. There’s never a dull day in the salon.
Sammyjo says: “It’s a dream come true to have my own super salon… and an even bigger dream to be on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three with my ‘Mamager’ and my Longlox family. Can’t wait to see it!"
Antonia Hurford-Jones and Duncan Gray, Twenty Six 03 Entertainment Executive Producers, say: “Sammyjo, Bev and their young team are brilliant at what they do. They're even more brilliant at making you love and laugh with them as they meet work and life head-on by The Tyne”
Fiona Campbell, ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three Controller, says: “It’s hugely important that ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three showcases young lives from across the whole of the UK so we’re really glad that we are able to ‘highlight’ the story of this successful hair salon. Angels of the North promises to be a really aspirational, relatable series that features big characters with ambition and talent.”
Rachel Ashdown, ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Commissioning Editor, says: “Viewers of ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Three will recognise their own experiences of working as part of a team and having hopes and dreams of one day being the boss in the characters they meet at Longlox.”
