Just after midnight on May 12, 2006, a man woke up inside of his quiet London suburb to the sound of pounding on his front door.

0:08.7

He immediately got up and went and answered it, and he found one of his neighbors standing outside looking completely shocked.

0:15.1

And the neighbor told the man that something horrible had happened to his sister.

0:20.0

And so right away, after hearing this, the man left his house and sprinted down the road

towards his sister's house.

0:26.6

And as he was running, he was terrified of what he was going to find because he was always

0:31.4

warning his sister to be more careful, but she never listened.

And then when he got to his sister's house, the first thing he saw was a trail of blood leading down her driveway.

And in that time, she'd attracted around 2,000 regular customers, which was already very

1:49.8

impressive, but it was particularly impressive because this was not like a big salon on a bustling

1:55.8

city street. Instead, it was a tiny shop on a quiet residential road way out in the northwest suburbs of London.

2:02.6

She actually ran the salon out of a single room in her brother's house, but through hard work and
