A new barber shop has opened up in the hub of Weston.

Simply Cuts, co-owned by Kevin Sampson, who runs the Sampson Barber shop in Walliscote Road, launched another family-run business last week.

The barber shop, in Meadow Street, will be run by Kevin’s brother Elliott Sampson and his partner Emma Farr (pictured), as well as another member of staff. Staff donned wigs on Friday as part of a fund-raising drive for Comic Relief.

Kevin said: “We have a great team and between the team they have about 20 years of experience.

“We just want to let people know that we are here so they should come on in and see us.”
