Clapham Observer – Friday 23 October 1959
MITCHAM traders are complaining about the number of private houses in which women’s hairdressing establishments are being run. At a social held by Mitcham Chamber of Commerce last week, the question was raised, and members said it was unfair competition for the recognised salons, where the owners had increased rates and overheads to pay. The secretary, Mr. Dick Gifford is investigating the complaint and will report at the Chamber’s annual meeting next month. He said he felt certain there would be a good attendance at the meeting, and perhaps, if interest in the Chamber increased, regular meetings would be held.
