💙 In Loving Memory of Barrie 💙

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sad news that our founder, colleague and dear friend Barrie, passed away peacefully.

For over 50 years, Barrie dedicated his life to hairdressing, caring for clients throughout Denton, Gorton, Reddish, Burnley, Manchester and Hyde. He wasn't just an incredible hairdresser—he was a mentor, a friend, and a familiar face who brought smiles, laughter and kindness to everyone he met.

Thousands of clients have sat in Barrie's chair over the years, and so many have become lifelong friends. His passion for our industry and the salon he helped build will never be forgotten.

We invite anyone who would like to pay their respects to join us as Barrie's funeral cortege leaves The Leading Edge Hair & Beauty at 2:00pm on Tuesday 4th August, before the service at Dukinfield Crematorium at 2:40pm.

The wake will be held afterwards at The Joshua Bradley.

Thank you to everyone who has sent kind messages and shared memories. They have brought great comfort to Barrie's family and all of us at The Leading Edge.

Rest peacefully, Barrie.
You will always be part of our salon family and will never be forgotten. ❤️

💙 Not everyone wants to blend in… and that’s exactly why we love creating hair like this. 💙

Created by our incredibly talented Emily at The Leading Edge Hair & Beauty ✨

This look is all about hidden colour placement with an avant-garde edge — soft, glossy natural tones on the surface with a striking flash of vibrant aqua underneath for maximum impact when revealed.

Creative colour is more than choosing a shade… it’s about placement, precision and designing something completely unique to the person wearing it.

Emily specialises in creating bespoke colour that allows you to express your personality — whether that means subtle dimension or bold statement colour that turns heads.

✨ Hidden colour techniques
💙 Fashion colours & creative placement
✂️ Bespoke consultations
🌿 Hair health focused colour services
🖤 Wearable but unforgettable results

Who says professional has to mean predictable?

If you’ve been saving inspiration pictures and waiting for a sign… this is it.
