about

Fidgets Area

We are committed to ensuring that every child receives an exceptional haircut in a friendly, inviting, and supportive atmosphere. Our mission is to establish a space that caters to children of all ages. We recognize that for some children, the process of getting a haircut can be intimidating. However, we firmly believe that fostering a sense of friendship and trust, along with a little time and patience, allows each child to feel comfortable and confident in their own time. Furthermore, we offer SEN haircuts at no extra charge. Our environment is one of acceptance and empathy, equipped with specialised tools to enhance the overall experience.

Marika

Marika

Proud owner of House Of HandSome and with over 15 years of experience in hair cutting, Marika is qualified in both barbering and hairdressing. I have a wonderful clientele of gentlemen who visit me for their haircuts, but my true passion lies in working with children, particularly those who may be apprehensive about getting their hair cut. I strive to create a comfortable environment and foster a friendly rapport with them; in fact, I’ve even had the pleasure of cutting Spider-Man’s hair! To enhance their experience, we have a dedicated area for boys and girls, designed to make their time with us more enjoyable. Additionally, I provide sensory haircuts and hold a Level 2 qualification in Understanding Autism
