After it was revealed that the town in Kent has 28 hairdresser’s for only 75,000 people, we sent a reporter to find out why

Ashford in Kent made the news this week when someone counted the number of hairdresser’s in the town: 28, eight of which are huddled together on a 200-metre stretch of the high street. That is an awful lot of stylists for a place with a population of only 75,000. It raises the question: is this market town with a Eurostar station an untapped source of styling excellence?

Have you seen Moulsham Street in Chelmsford...14+ hairdressers/barbers in just the one Street!
