Today’s Guest

Jeff Letter’s journey in to hairdressing wasn’t the normal route. It was after an off the cuff suggestion from a friend over breakfast led Jeff Letter to leave his home in Majorca to pursue a career in hair salon ownership.

A change of direction led him to start a property portfolio of seven properties before embarking on his hairdressing journey. Fast forward 19 years and more than 20 business awards later and Jeff is now the MD of PENNEYS a group of hair related businesses that grew to a seven figure turnover within three years.
