We’re back in the driving seat

Boris’s 4 step Roadmap will potentially allow us to open under step 2 on Monday 12th April, subject to data assessments being satisfactory. We’re looking forward to getting you freshly trimmed in time for Spring.

 

Implementing this plan requires the Government to be guided by data, not dates, so that they do not risk a surge in infections that would put unsustainable pressure on the NHS. For that reason, all the dates in the roadmap are indicative and subject to change. There will be a minimum of five weeks between each step: four weeks for the scientific data to reflect the changes in restrictions and to be analysed; followed by one week’s advance notice of the restrictions that will be eased.

Step 2 is currently booked marked to take effect no earlier than the 12th April, and will be subject to an assessment of the data against the four tests. If Step 2 is delayed, subsequent steps will need to be pushed back in order to maintain the necessary five week period to assess the impact of each step and to provide notice. We will keep you posted in the event that we are notified of any change in date.

We have provided a link covering steps 1- 4 here Publication of the Roadmap  As we move through each of these phases in the roadmap, we must all remember that COVID-19 remains a part of our lives. For the moment we are going to have to keep living our lives differently for the next few months to keep ourselves and others safe. As such our PPE and social distancing policies will remain in place at the Valet until the data indicates otherwise, so we will carry on with ‘hands, face, space’ and comply with the COVID-Secure measures that we previously had in place at the salon. Staff will wear full PPE and customers will need to wear a face masks whilst in the salon and also sanitize their hands on entry. If we all continue to play our part, we will be that bit closer to a future that is more familiar and hopefully we can achieve this by the 21st June by all doing the right thing, please see COVID-safe guidelines for close contact businesses,

How we plan to manage the booking process

Phase 1

We are currently in the process of calling all of our clients that are on the standby list to get you booked in as close to our opening date as possible, which will be no earlier than the 12th April. If we don’t reach you by telephone we will book you an appointment and will send confirmation of this by email and text message. If the time and date offered is not convenient for you, then please respond to the email and we will make alternative arrangements to suit your schedule.

Phase 2

Online booking will re-open on (Wednesday 24th February) at 11:00 am. If you haven’t already registered click here to access our appointment book or alternatively download our app from the app store or googleplay and search for the Valet Barbershop. Please note we will be also accepting booking requests via our contact us page. Our online booking facility also allows you to pay for your appointment upfront, which will help minimise a build up of customers at our point of sale and will also allow you to exit the salon strait after we have completed your treatment.

Phase 3

Our telephone lines will open to the public on Monday 12th April at 8:30 am Read More

Colour at the Valet

Did you know we offer a very discrete cover up option for grey hair, as well as permanent tints for a funky retro look.

Using only the latest colour technology and products we deliver great results. Not only can you get your hair tinted but also your Beard.

Beard Tint

Dying a grey Beard can make the beard look fuller and healthier. There are several shades to choose from. You will find no other Beard tinting service to match the way we do things. It’s a discrete cover up option that masks up those grey’s, leaving your Beard with a truly natural look. The service includes the use of steam and a cleanser which aids to distribute the tint evenly and also helps replenishes the skin. Colour shades are blond, light brown, medium brown, dark brown, black brown and black. Please note this service requires a 24 hour patch test. A free consultation is available in store to best match your natural colour. Why not include an Artic Explorer treatment for your Beard whilst you’re at it. Please note a 24 patch test will be required. Book here

Semi permanent hair colour

For a natural look without total blanket coverage, opt for our semi permanent option tint service. We can match any colour using only the most advanced colour systems and products. Leave it to our colour experts for a free consultation. Please note a 24 hour patch test will be required prior to booking this service. Why not include a Re-style while you’re at it. Book here

Permanent colour – highlights

For total coverage, or some funky colour / highlights, opt for our permanent tint service. We can match or create any colour using only the most advanced colour systems and products. Leave it to our colour experts for a free consultation. Please note a 24 hour patch test will be required prior to booking this service. Why not include a Re-style while you’re at it. Book here

With a balanced team that focuses on Old School Barbering & Modern trends, we’re big on Colour. Gone are the days where you have to be selective between a Barbershop and a Hair Salon. Here you get it all under one roof but with the added benefit of being in a totally masculine environment.

The new style that you’ll need to grow into

We’re seeing change quite rapidly at the Valet with the decade’s Retro – David Beckham slick-back, James Dean Pompadour with a Military taper fade out, quite literally, and so goes the 1930’s classic taper with a definite side parting.

As quoted by a leading men’s fashion blog GQ…

The recession is over and so men start to loosen up.

Seems now its all about a more relaxed natural side parting, with lengthier sides, but a style that’s been finely cut and trimmed, is the new look on the block. This latest style is sober enough for the office, but can also be pulled off well when in that relaxed ” it’s Friday state of mind” keeping it trim for the office and above the collar, but textured enough to step out the office door and apply a quick ruffle to jump in the nearest bar looking like the perfect Alpha Male!
