I REFER to the letter from Ms Diver (May 16) regarding her experience with mobile hairdressers and also to the letter from Christine Cooper (May 19).

My wife has had her hair "looked after" for many years by mobile hairdresser Nicky Watson (who also "looks after" mine when required, what little there is left).

She has always been very reliable, has reasonable charges, always tries to fit in with any special requirements (formal dinners etc) and is a very good hairdresser.

It is to her credit and shows customer satisfaction that she no longer needs to advertise because her appointment book is full.

Not all mobile hairdressers are bad.
