Perc Westmore is the sole owner of The House of Westmore beauty salon, which opened on 16 April 1935, on Sunset Boulevard.
Percival Harry Westmore (29 October 1904  30 September 1970) was a prominent member of the Westmore family of Hollywood make-up artists. The House of Westmore beauty salon was opened on 16 April 1935, on Sunset Boulevard. Perc (pronounced "Perss" not "Perk") was instrumental in finishing the project, as the brothers had run out of money before finishing it. Whilst working on Stranded, he told actress Kay Francis of their plight. She responded by giving him a blank cheque to complete the project, which he cashed for $25,000. The Westmore Family is a prominent family in Hollywood make-up. Wally headed Paramount makeup from 1926, where he created, among others, Fredric March's gruesome transformation in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931). Frank followed him there. Bud led Universal's makeup department for twenty-three years, specializing in rubber prosthetics. Together, they built the House of Westmore salon, which served stars and public alike.
