Ladies’ Hairdressers

A Memory of Sydenham.

My first Saturday job (1973) was in a ladies hair salon, a couple of shops along from this camera shop, in Kirkdale. I think it was called Estelle. The owner was called Erica, who was quite classy and very nice. It was opposite Cobb’s. Just along the street, on the other side, was an Esso garage, where my brother worked on Saturdays.
