A hair salon is moving to new premises in a Suffolk seaside town for better long-term security and more space.

The Simone Michelle Hair Shop will be moving to the former Vincent Grace Hair Design unit on the corner of Garrison Lane and High Road West in Felixstowe.

Currently, Simone Michelle is based in the town's Crescent Road and will be opening in High Road West on September 30.

Posting to a Felixstowe community Facebook page, business owner Simone Michelle said: "So I’m happy to announce officially that we are moving shop on September 30.

"The premises offer our business more long term security (12 years) and more space."

She said the business would be operating "in the same way" as at previous locations, providing walk-in haircuts with no appointment necessary for gentlemen, ladies and children, though appointments would be needed for other services.

She added the salon offered OAP prices on all services.

The salon used to be based in Hamilton Road until March 2023 when the premises became the Felixstowe Indoor Market, a venue for local people to sell their products, whether a farmer who has home grown produce, a seamstress who has made clothes or an artist with paintings to sell.

In October, the market moved to the same terrace of shops in Crescent Road as the hair salon.
