Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Hair Hangerz After Dragons’ Den?
Hair Hangerz appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2014, Series 12 Episode 3. The business was a clips for hair extensions. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2018.
The Pitch
Kate Arnold walked into the Den in 2014 with a clips for hair extensions. They were asking for £45,000 in exchange for 10% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Kate Arnold left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Hair Hangerz did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2018, some 4 years after the pitch.
This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.
Is Hair Hangerz Still in Business?
No. Hair Hangerz is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
