How many more hairdressers can we take? I have just see ANOTHER new hairdresser has opened up on the Western Road! If you want to open a new business, it seems, just start a new hairdressers. Aren't they all just putting each other out of business? What should we have instead? What can you open nowadays that is new and viable?

Looks like part of a national trend. Just see this on a BBC site "But while certain businesses are declining, new ones are springing up offering services not easily available on the internet, such as beauty salons.

In the towns surveyed across England, Scotland and Wales, a total of 2,633 restaurants, cafes and fast-food outlets opened in the first six months of 2010.

Over the same period, 2,145 hairdressing and beauty salons were opened." see http://tinyurl.com/244kau5
