To be fair, of the 3 up near TK Maxx

1 - Is over booked and not taking new clients as he struggles to fit his current clientele in
2 - is generally full with 3 hair stylists
3 - Had to take on an extra staff member and open an extra day of the week due to demand.

.... so .... yeah I think there is plenty of demand.

I recently looked and came across three, how many do you need. Mind you the one by the odeon is closed maybe that will re open to.
I reckon catering to men between tk maxx and the old post office I would take a stab at 6. Between there and Slaters, I think another 3 or 4.

60,000 adults in Stafford alone so the potential for 30,000 men needing haircuts. Shock horror barbers cater for demand.

Why shouldn't there be barbers, like mobile phones, virtually everyone needs one.

They've moved to the Wolverhampton Road and have an adjoining antiques shop called Rooney's antiques which I thought was a shop full of Wayne Rooney's mistresses at first :)
Just in case anybody is desperately searching for them, 'our' one is actually devoid of the 'e' - Roony's.


Is there an app that will cut your hair?

And you can launder your winnings next door the other way at the Clean Express

Such establishments can be split into two types.... Functional like the place I go to on Newport road (next to the Floodgate) and lifestyle, like the one opened by the Francesco group along from The Sun.... Both do the same job just one of them are a little more smug about what they do and pass on that smugness in extra cost to the patrons who in the majority of cases are happy to pay for it....

Enjoying a drop of red.

Had a look at their prices in the window whilst walking past the other day. Nearly passed out!

I'll stick with Goldencuts in Mill Street.

They wanted something like £150 or so to do a colour for the wife as they itemised every single thing separately with no discount to any of it as a bulk purchase. Wash, dry, bleach, colour, etc.

It works out cheaper to drag an old friend of her’s up to do it, board them, feed them, and pay them.
