2025 PLANNED STUDIO CLOSURES
***March 2025***
*POTENTIAL LAST MINUTE STUDIO CLOSUREs*
Just a polite notice to say that for the time being we are not taking appointment bookings too far in advance from NOW ON, unless stated on our website or in studio.
I CAN CONFIRM We will definitely be open
Wednesday 9th April - Saturday 12th April
Wednesday 23rd April - Saturday 26th April
Wednesday 30th April - Saturday 3rd May
I'm not taking any more bookings for future dates from now on.
It will be walk ins only if we are open.
I may need to close the studio at very short notice for various reasons, so not having cancel or rearrange appointment bookings on these days makes things easier.
As soon as I know closure dates, I will list them on our planned studio closure page, sometimes this may be at very short notice.
It would be best if you send an email including your telephone number or call us closer to the day you would like to come in. If no reply within 24/48 hours then we are either closed or I did not receive your email.
Thank you for understanding & for keeping us so busy !!

JANUARY 2025
After 40 successful years of running his own business (& being well past retirement age!) Steve has decided he wants to slow things down a bit.
We both decided it was time to get the work / life balance right & pursue other interests outside of work life. This means us both not working full time hours any more & taking more time to do things which we enjoy.
You will notice we will take many more breaks & be closed more often throughout the year from now on. I believe we have earned this after many years of hard work in this industry.
We do our very best to answer emails or return phone calls as soon as we can on the days that we are open, this is usually once we have closed after 3pm. There are only two of us in the studio & we cannot always answer the phone when we are already with clients. If you email or call us on the days that we are closed, then we will contact you as soon as we can, once we reopen. Please bear in mind that most days we receive a high volume of emails, so we may not be able to reply to you on the same day. After a planned studio closure please understand we will get back to you as soon as we can but it may take us a week or two to catch up having been closed for while.
