The parents of hairdresser Hollie Gazzard, who was killed at the hair salon where she worked a fortnight ago, have spoken for the first time about their vibrant, dynamic daughter.

Hollie was attacked and stabbed while working at the Fringe Benefits hair salon at Southgate Street, Gloucester on February 18th.

A 22 year old man has been charged with her murder.

Hollie's older sister Chloe says that they were 'best friends' and she had been a fantastic auntie to her baby daughter Ruby.

Hollie's parents say that as a child she loved sport and tried everything from football, tag rugby and horse riding to athletics and cross country. She was a Manchester United football fan.

As an adult, Hollie was ambitious and had plans to open up a salon of her own with a friend.
