There's only 16 years between Jeanette, 41, and her 25-year-old daughter and the pair are often mistaken for sisters.

Now the pair are putting their youthful looks to good use by setting up their own 'Tan n Glam' saloon on Spendmoor Lane, where customers are given the chance to purchase fashion accessories while we put on a tan.

Jeanette said: "There has always been a tanning studio on this site but we decided we wanted to do something different. We are from the area and want to make this a successful business venture.

"It is great working with my daughter as when she was born I was working full-time whereas this is a chance to spend a lot more time with each other.

"The market is calling out for good quality added extras and in a short space of time we are amazed by the response of our customers and have some regulars already.

"We have been really busy over the past month and we will be looking at opening more businesses around the Chorley area."

Deanna admitted one advantage had been the increase in the number of males who are taking an interest in their image.

She said: "We have quite a few men coming in for spray tans which is good and also body builders come in to define their muscles."

The mother and daughter combination have been joined by Lisa Berry, who specialises in nail treatment including manicures, peticures and acrylic gel nails.

Deanna said: "It is great working with my mum and it gives us a friendly atmosphere and along with Lisa we make a good team."
