Silent haircut – Obsessions salon Ramsgate 

 

Do you hate being asked, “are you going away this year” by your hairdresser? How about “are you up to much today”? OR my fave 

“Do you have any children”? (like that defines who I am)

 

While some of you like small chat so it’s easy and you don’t have to burn lots of brain calories (yes, that’s a thing), Some of you will love a deep and meaningful about crypto, business or the challenges of the world (we do not share our political stands here). Still, some of you will want to just sit in silence, sip fabulous coffee and watch the world go by. 

 

The Silent haircut at obsessions salon Ramsgate allows you to do just that. Sit, wonder, dream, sip great coffee, ponder awhile, or rest those eyes. 

 

In a world where we all have choices, we believe that you should have the option to sit in silence and just be if that’s what you fancy doing.  

 

We have a huge uptake in silent haircuts from clients who suffer social anxiety, find it difficult to make conversation or are just shy and want a haircut without the pressure to hold a conversation they don’t feel they want to have. As someone who understands social anxiety from a family member who suffers, I wanted to make obsessions a safe space for everyone to enjoy a haircut. My family member would feel super pressured and worry themselves sick about the appointment and being made to hold long conversations that they would not book hair or beauty appointments. My aim here is to give everyone the service they want to experience in the way they want to experience it. 

 

We also found a large demographic of busy Londoners moving to Ramsgate while commuting and wanting some quiet time to just rest and recharge, and some that just wanted to get their laptop out, kill two birds with one stone, and crack on with some work while in the chair.

 

The silent haircut suits all of the above and can be booked online or via our reservations team on 01843 852662

 

Once in the chair, we will give you a full consultation to determine what you are trying to achieve with your hair. After that, it’s entirely your time. We will take you over to the basins shampoo and condition your hair as normal but without the product info. Your whole haircut will be in silence unless you want to talk and if so, feel free to break the silence. 

 

When finished, we will guide you over to our payment desk to take payment, book your next cut and wish you a great day. 

 

No fuss, no pressure, just a great haircut, a great coffee and some time just for you. 

 

 

If you or someone you know is suffering from social anxiety, here are some great resources that helped me understand what I could do to help.
