Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Top to Tail Salons After Dragons’ Den?
Top to Tail Salons appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2021, Series 18 Episode 9. The business was a hair-resistant clothing line for pet care professionals. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2022.
The Pitch
Sophie James walked into the Den in 2021 with a hair-resistant clothing line for pet care professionals. They were asking for N/A.
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 Sophie James left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Top to Tail Salons did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2022 — just a year after appearing on the show.
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 Top to Tail Salons Still in Business?
No. Top to Tail Salons is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2022).
