IN HAWKES AD - 1988

A 1988 advert for In Hawkes Hairdressing in Westport.
Not sure whether "Hawkes" is supposed to mean "Hawkhill" in a more upmarket slang way, or if it's someones surname, but anyway, I do like that haircut!

  2. I'm tempted to say between unit 6 & 8 but I've no idea really. This was after I had moved South.

  5. To The last commenter... The woman in the advert was my mum. Her name was Suzanne Whyte and she was an amazing artist and mother. She passed away in 2012 and i recently found a copy of this leaflet in my attic and was curious as to the hairdresser she was modelling for.
