History
Fergy’s opened in 1990 in Media at its present location. Cheryl’s previous manager Betteann came to Fergy’s with Cheryl upon opening 16 years ago and is still employed at present. Bette is also a graduate of Gordon Phillips and Clairol institute in NYC, and is an expert in all phases of hair care also. Fergy’s currently employs shampoo assts. That meets Cheryl’s high standards and shares a desire to work at the same level of expertise in the industry, and seek a career in the industry.
Cheryl’s “different by design” logo came about in 1990. Cheryl wanted a professional salon doing expert high quality work without the attitude that other salons display. In 1990 Fergy’s was the first totally non-smoking health related salon. The employees of Fergy’s ran the Media 5-miler and Fergy’s was one of the first sponsors and continues to be. Cheryl wanted a salon where all clients feel comfortable and important, with no high pressure and where the stylist listens to the client. Cheryl’s husband bought the salon prior to retiring from active law enforcement; Betteann’s husband is still active in law-enforcement. Fergy’s gives a discount to all active, military and law enforcement personnel.
Products
All professional products can be ordered. Cheryl stocks Matrix and Aquage, but doesn’t push any retail. The retail is there for the convenience of the clients only.
Advertising is predominantly word of mouth. A coupon for ½ off is available to clients who refer a new client who also receives ½ off for their first service. Other coupons are available on the web site.
