Headquarters

I love the name of this really well presented hair salon on Clifton Street — in recent years, the choosing of a name that is a clever play on words is, of course, an obligatory perquisite of setting up a salon, and the decision to use ‘Headquarters’ has to be one of the more impressive examples.
Although first impressions would lead you to believe that this is an ultra trendy and rather exclusive salon, the price range comes as quite a surprise, as does the fact that they offer discounted rates to senior citizens; the latter making the place attractive to people of all ages. It also means that there is always an interesting mix of people at the salon at any given time, lending it an intimate and friendly feel.
A cut and blow dry is £23.80, which is just under the going rate for an established salon with a good reputation. Senior citizens pay £19.00, a price that offers them a considerable saving. The price for colouring is also really inexpensive. Highlights including a cut is only £46.50! This is really good value!
One reason why Headquarters is so affordable is because they haven’t put their prices up in four to five years. I haven’t asked them why this is the case, but I guess that the recession has a lot to do with it.
