Christchurch hairdresser puts old tools on display
From curling tongs you heat in the fire, to a shaving and tooth pulling bowl, a new display in Christchurch is showing off a range of grooming techniques from over the centuries. Christchurch hairdresser Michael Turner has been collecting hair salon memorabilia for over 25 years, and decided to donate some of his gems to go on public display at Ferrymead Heritage Park.
