London
salon offering £20,000 daylong hair pampering session
London:
A London salon is offering a daylong hair and pampering treatment,
which will cost a whopping 20,000 pounds. The salon in Covent
Garden, owned by leading hair stylist Stuart Phillips, has become
a hit particularly with the wives of Russian oligarchs, who
do not mind spending their money despite the recession. And
the package includes the full attention of Phillips, as well
as the possibility of security teams, personal chefs and a luxury
car to collect them from the airport or their home. "Some clients
pay 20,000 pounds but for that they get my undivided attention.
I am available for the whole day and they have the best of everything,"
the Telegraph quoted Phillips as saying. He added: "I have had
to provide everything from security teams and bodyguards, exotic
and expensive oils to wash through the client's hair, interpreters,
personal chefs, special scents put through the ventilation system,
and even dog walkers to entertain their pets." The costly pampering
session also include a shiatsu acupressure head massage or body
massage before the cut, while the salon also offers an hour-long
lifestyle consultation. And friends of clients can also receive
a haircut for a discounted 8,000 pounds. Although Phillips agreed
that the price was high, he said: "All you need to do is compare
other expensive non-essential things. A client said she will
spend 3,000 pounds on a handbag and she has over a hundred."
