Hair cut and colour at hair at the hub
I have used this hairdresser for the past 20 plus years. Even before I became disabled. They have a saloon in Penicuik and until the pandemic one in the hydro hotel in Peebles . But as the hotel closed due to restrictions and they didn’t know if it would reopen . They decided to use a spare room which is attached to the gift shop they also own In Innerleithen. The saloon has its own entrance at the side which is via a small step. I sit in my wheelchair for my cut and colour as this is easier for me and my hairdresser who is also the owner. When my hair needs washing he just moves the chair and pushes me up to the sink then put the back of my wheelchair down. There are only two members of staff in the shop and both are always more than happy to assist me if I need help. They help me up and down the step , I have special crutches that I can use to help me get around and up or down small steps. I have always found the staff fantastic and really can’t do enough to help me. No matter the situation. I would advice phoning and speaking to either Danny or Pauline the owners or terry the receptionist at Penicuik and discuss your needs with them . I’m sure they will do what they can to accommodate you. I have been using this saloon for so long that they are more like friends.
