Almost 13 years at number 22

Thanks to all of our loyal customers who continue to support our shop.

If you own a small business you’ll fully understand how hard it is to keep the doors open these days.

When you see happy customers walk out the shop with a smile on their faces or you get a good review online it’s all worth it.

We continue to push until high street arcades units are full with businesses again and that foot fall is back to how it was 7 years ago.

12 Years ago

I got the idea and I had a plan of how the shop would look. At the time I only had two barbers chairs and for some reason I thought a huge reception was a good idea 🤣. I guess it was at the time but as the business grew it had to go to make room for more barbers chairs. I was limited to only being allowed two chairs on my first contract so to have more I had to ask permission with the arcade management at the time.

I did like that reception with the old church pews. Some of it is still in the shop on the much smaller reception.

Awaiting the next chapter of high street arcade with the completion of the food hall. The arcades been empty since that dreaded c@vid and it’s currently like a dusty building site but we all know better days are coming.

Onwards and upwards
