About

I’m Winsome. I run a busy salon where everyone is looked after.

I grew up in Handsworth with a mother who did half the street's hair at the kitchen table. I trained in my twenties, worked in other people's salons for years, and opened my own in Birmingham when I turned forty-eight.

Today there are four chairs, a team I'm proud of and a front window that lets the afternoon in. We take our time, we talk, and everyone leaves feeling looked after. If you're not sure what you want, tell us how you like to wear your hair and we'll start there.
