Mum-of-four Ms Jones, who trades as 'Jadez Braidz', offers hair braiding for both adults and children, with and without extensions, and caters for pamper parties.
She said: “I feel quite proud of myself to have achieved something like this as I’ve had a bit of a bumpy road the past few years.
“I didn’t think I’d achieve this having had four children, but I just keep pushing to better myself.

“Three of my children have been girls and I loved to play with their hair and cool hairstyles and started to do the colour braids on them.
“Colour braids is something I loved having myself as a child when my parents used to take me away abroad.
“I thought, why should children have to go abroad for something so unique, so I started learning colour braiding five years ago.

“I thought it would be perfect as my little girls loved it so much and that everyone should be able to enjoy colourful hair too.”
Ms Jones studied hairdressing for three years and has a level 3 qualification in hairdressing.
