Good chairs are worth waiting for.
We hire slowly and we keep people. If you cut well and you turn up, this is a room where you can build a book that is yours.

01What the shop gives you
- Your own chair, your own station, your own key.
- Booking, deposits and no-show handling run by the shop, not by you.
- Products, towels, laundry and sharpening covered.
- Your name and your work on the site, with a profile page and booking link that are yours to share.
- Two paid education days a year, at a course you choose.
Who it suits
- You can fade to skin and blend it clean, or you can cut long hair properly with scissors. Ideally both.
- You consult before you cut, and you say no to a cut that will not work.
- You keep your own book, answer your own messages and show up when you said you would.
