I love Toni & Guy for really amazing cuts and colour, but they are rather expensive. He could get a free cut from the Toni & Guy Academy.


How long is his hair? He might be able to donate it for children's wigs (Little Princess Trust, or similar). They usually require 10 to 12 inches braided. xx

Cut Throat in Peckham - a Contemporary Barbers and Salon. David, who used to work at the Galleon and Wills B now works there doing both women and men's hair. Very cool and hip! Right next to Cafe Viva as well so you can have a coffee and cake while he get's his cut done!

Ohh, now, coffee & cake are sounding good - will check out Cut Throat, Thanks CoachBeth.


Not sure I can run to Toni & guy prices for him Saff, though agree they always come up trumps. His hair is long but not long enough I think - it's just past his shoulders.


Never heard of Blue Tit (or Pedlers come to that) - I must get out more! I'll google them & see where it is, prices etc.etc. - check them out.


Thanks team ;)

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.


The Groom Room in DV did it in the end. I paid a bit extra (it being DV an' all) but he got a very good, very cool cut that he's delighted with - so it was worth it to me.


Thanks wonderful family-roomers

:)

Mems has a very manly feel to it. They have bottles of bourbon and brandy near the leather sofas... Always tempted to crack into them when my son is getting his hair cut!! Blue tit is tres cool looking from the outside. I wasn't very cool when I walked in and asked for a coffee when they first opened (it looks like a trendy cafe from the outside!)

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
