Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Snip Snap After Dragons’ Den?
Snip Snap appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2006, Series 3 Episode 2. The business was a children's hair-dressing franchise. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Marion Burns walked into the Den in 2006 with a children's hair-dressing franchise. They were asking for £130,000.
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 Marion Burns left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Snip Snap is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2006, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Snip Snap Still in Business?
