Good value mid-range hairdresser's shop (not too expensive to be off-putting; spotlessly clean, bright and modern-looking interior). Very pleasant and welcoming staff here; the lady who managed to tame my thicket of hair, did it expertly and efficiently for £10 - with just the right amount of genuinely-interested conversation to keep things friendly all round.

The only negative? The unrepresentative, and fly-blown looking, standing sign out on the pavement really needs a re-paint (or burning). read more
