A Cut Above - and Beyond - the Rest
How far would you go to find a good hairdresser? Next door? Across town, maybe? To another country??
That is precisely what Beverley Lateo of Pisa, Italy is planning to do on 29th October when she flies to London,
UK, to have the world’s Most Expensive Haircut, styled at the Stuart Phillips Hair Salon in Covent Garden, for
the price of £8,000 ($16,300).
Beverley knows, like all women do, that when you have found a good, reliable hairdresser (who never cuts too much
off), you stay put. It just so happens, that Beverley could not find one in all of Italy, so looked elsewhere in Europe and in April of this year found Stuart Phillips – a name she recognised from numerous British magazines, as the
official hairstylist to The British Academy Television Awards (since 2004). A month later she was having her long
layers cut by Stuart as part of his International VIP hair service. The cut was seemingly worth every penny, and hence
Beverley is booked in for another appointment.
The record breaking haircut package includes a Champagne lunch, a head and scalp massage, a selection of
personalised L’Oreal hair products and treatments, a return limousine ride from the airport, and of course, the
haircutting skills of the internationally acclaimed Stuart Phillips, himself.
