Let the training commence.

Mondays is our official training day for all of our assistance and stylists to push themselves and better themselves in the profession. Today Director Mark Blunsten is taking training, focusing on crops, short hair, mens hair and bobs. Mark has a background of training at Vidal Sassoon and worked in the South Moulton salon. Mark is one of directors who built The Egg from the very beginning.

The salons training ethos is something we focus on with all of our staff and that is 'if you ever feel like you need to stop learning then you will never further yourself and that everyone can benefit from training.. forever!' As one of the Directors of the salon Mark enroles himself on annual Sassoon courses to keep up to date in his own skills. 

Mark works over both of our salons so book an appointment with him contact us on either 01603 761176 or 01604 616396, Alternatively if you're looking at being a model for our educational days just give us a call.

Welcome to Our House!


Our new collection 'Our House' has recently hit social media and our website (Here)
and we wanted to tell our readers a little bit more about the collection.

Developed by Our Creative team  Callum & Paul Standen-May, Mark Blunsten, Amber Duffy and Jacqueline Devon Sadler, Our House was a collection that we wanted to breath personality in a way that screamed no limitation. Using real people and clients from our salon we wanted to show their character, uniqueness and charisma but maintain realism of the every day person. And 'Our House' was born.

Alongside creating a collection to celebrate our diverse clientele we also wanted to portray the factor that make our girls individual, within the collection we celebrate who the girls are; Queer, Entrepreneurs, Artists, Mothers, Models and all round empowered women!


(Check out the Full Collection here)

(The Full collection from concept, hair, makeup, shooting, post production and content was all created internally by The Egg Team of which we are very proud of.)

We don't only dress beautiful hair for women, we also do it for men too! What better way to display this would be doing a barbering show? Recently The Egg Directors travelled all the way from Norwich to Newport for The Barber Connect event where they taught on stage!

Barber Connect is an exhibition which connects Uk barbers in a real life platform to share knowledge, skill and raise the standard of mens hair. The venue is filled with seminars,  demonstrations, workshops and stalls for all your barbering needs.


Creative Director Callum Standen & Senior Director Mark Blunsten attended this years event to present some vintage & modern styles to the masses and they loved it. Mark worked on creating a more traditional and classic style creating a 50's look which included perfecting fading, disconnection & blending.


Callum worked on a much more modern level with his model and showed some techniques he has acquired from recent catwalk shows. He taught the observing crowds how to cut and style creatively and how to work more visually to tailor the cut to the bespoke client. After the show, the boys did a question and answers session for followers and watchers of the demo and then set off to check out others work.

Barber Connect is a growing platform for male hairdressing and The Egg directors loved attending the event and loved working alongside others on the Mens Hair Federation stage and we can't wait for future events so keep and eye out for us!
