I got the idea and I had a plan of how the shop would look. At the time I only had two barbers chairs and for some reason I thought a huge reception was a good idea 🤣. I guess it was at the time but as the business grew it had to go to make room for more barbers chairs. I was limited to only being allowed two chairs on my first contract so to have more I had to ask permission with the arcade management at the time.
I did like that reception with the old church pews. Some of it is still in the shop on the much smaller reception.
Awaiting the next chapter of high street arcade with the completion of the food hall. The arcades been empty since that dreaded c@vid and it’s currently like a dusty building site but we all know better days are coming.

We’re gassed to welcome Zoe from Skin Cariad - the newest addition to the SWYD team and a Harley Street qualified Laser Technician bringing the latest Pico Laser technology into the shop.
Pico Laser works by delivering ultra-short pulses of energy deep into the skin, breaking tattoo ink into microscopic particles that the body naturally clears away over time.
Compared to traditional tattoo removal lasers, Pico technology is faster, more precise, and gentler on the surrounding skin - meaning better results and less downtime.
Whether you’re looking for full tattoo removal or fading old pieces ready for cover-ups, Zoe will be working alongside our in-house tattoo artists to help create the best possible canvas for your next piece.
Consultations are now being scheduled — DM to book ⚡️
