STAFF at a Southampton beauty salon got into the festive spirit by dressing up as pantomime characters.

The girls – and boys – at St James Hair and Beauty in Shirley transformed themselves into the cast of Cinderella.

“We just do it for a bit of fun for ourselves, and the customers look forward to it,” said owner Sue Gill.

“We tend to follow what’s on at The Mayflower. We go and see the show then see what we can do.”
