Felix Farley's Hair Salon on Hermitage Road will be making the occasion with a party for loyal customers.
Run by well-known creative and tireless Hitchin advocate, Felix Camfield-Walker, Farley's is a vegan, cruelty free unisex hair salon renowned across our area for offering mens grooming, women's cuts and colours, and all the hair and beard products one could ask for.
Looking towards the weekend, busy Felix said: "On Saturday, November 19, 2022 Farley's Hair Salon will be a whole 15 years old.
"We are quite rightly very proud of this, and as such would like to invite our lovely, loyal customers to join us for drinks, music and general frivolity from 2pm to celebrate something that Charlie and I took a massive gamble on 15 years ago saying 'if it doesn't work after a year we'll move to Berlin and start again', and which has now become an integral part of Hitchin's culture.
"We very much look forward to seeing you all on this very special day."
