Join Sophie’s Salon or GENT

If you are looking for a self employed hairdresser opportunity in Bicester, Sophie’s Salon offers a professional, creative and well established environment to grow your business.

Based at Willows Gate just outside Bicester town centre, the salon combines a destination setting with strong daily footfall. This is not a quiet space waiting to be filled. It is a busy, in demand salon with room to grow further.

We offer opportunities across both the main salon and our barbering space, GENT.

  • Ongoing marketing and visibility
