IN response to the letter 'Bad hair days, (May 16), I must reply on behalf of all the good mobile hairdressers of York.

I have been a fully qualified hairdresser for 29 years, the last 15 of which I have been a mobile stylist.

I provide everything except water and electricity, don't charge the earth and I have a full appointment book.

Perhaps Ms Diver should try to get a mobile hairdresser by word of mouth and ask about the qualifications held.
