COOL PLACES; free HAIRCUT? £3?? NO.. FREE!

As stated in my previous blog post, whilst we were ambling our way through Brick Lane on Sunday, Laura was lucky enough to be invited to a free haircut on the 10th of March, at 1pm, she was ordered to go to Ena Salon, Holborn and meet with Gianna, a lovely Cypriot girl, who would cut hair into what ever style she wanted. I thought I'd tag along and take a few pictures. This sort of opportunity isn't far from you, the problem is, you're inside too much, get out and dance in the land of opportunity!

I was also asked if I'd like a haircut and I said 'sure!', so that's all arrange for 1.30pm, next Tuesday. My hairdresser will be Ben, and I'm interested to see what he does. He said something along the lines of skinfade-to-hightop..

Here are some of the pictures I took of the trip to Holborn!

All in all it took 4 hours, but this was because Gianna is a trainee and was under close supervision, by the Head Stylist, Woody. This could save you a whopping £20 in life!

If you'd like to get your haircut by Ena Salon there is you can try and contact me, to sort you out an appointment? Facebook me, text me, tweet me.

Stay tuned and stay blessed all! GRM NXT.

COOL PLACES; HOT DAY IN NARNIA

The 9th of March had been highly-anticipated by many people all over the captial. High's of 17 degrees had been reported (hotter than a 9th of Match spent in Ibiza) and the day did not disappoint, not a cloud in site and a gawjusss heat. Laura and I decided to head out to London's thrifty East End! We went for a afternoon drink on Boxpark, Shoreditch. We then made our way to the sure-to-be-packed Brick Lane, we cut through the market on Scalter Way and it was definitely a taster for what was in store at the market. There were great deals everywhere and movement was oh so limited. 

Good deals on Scalter Way Market, towards Brick Lane from Shoreditch High Street Station

MEGA bottles of shampoo and conditioner - £2

Heavy Duty bike lock, with 3 keys! - £3 (£30-100+ RRP) - this makes me think that the keys are all generic so be careful if you're buying these locks for a bike in the Shoreditch area as people may have the key to YOUR lock)

Vinyls for cheap - (20p - £3)

Typical yard sales

Anyway, we soon reached a busy Brick Lane and proceeded to look around! You had all your different market stalls and more innovative stalls, selling quirky, cool and also common gadgets and products. Our stomach's soon started talking to us, so we listened, and went to eat in Brick Lane Food Hall recommended by Laura, there was so much choice and ultimately, we ended up going for a Venezulan(...?!?) delicasse.

After that, we made our way to see what Brick Lane had to offer! We ambled through the herds of people, making some buys on the way. Our eyes were drawn to various vendors, some had an amazing artillery of stock, from vintage cameras to henna tattoos, Brick Lane's Sunday Market does have it all! We then sat down on a bit of free space in the midst of thousands of people pausing for a 'breather'/sip of anything. There we met a cooool couple, Moss and Louis. We ended up walking down Regent's Canal and also having a look at the Columbia Flower Market, PERFECT, for you guys that have A LOT of making up to do. You can buy lovely bunches from as cheaps 50p so check it out if you're in the area on a Sunday!

Finished the night at The Ferry Boat Inn, in last year's hometown.. Tottenham Hale, where we enjoyed a delightful meal before retreating, back to Hackney.

Here are some snaps from the day! I THINK.. they're in the right order.

Sunnies (Brick Lane Market) - £8

 

Smoked Salmon Bagels for £1.40 (20p more for cream cheese..)

 

 Sunnies (Brick Lane) - £5

Top (East End Thrift store) - £2

Casio Watch (Argos) - £8

Last year, a party was held in the derelict bulding just behind the red frame, music and people could be heard and seen for miles, ahh London.

Nigerians are out here, land, water, we're everywhere.

This lovely bunch was only £2 from the flower market!

They really brighten up a room, more for the ladies. Men, I am not encouraging you to buy roses for your windowsills, this is a picture of Laura's windowsill in Hackney.

 All in all it was a good day spent getting to know cool people and enjoying all the offers a keen bargain hunter like myself could dream for!

Whilst walking through the crowds of people L was stopped by Gianna, a Cypriot hairdresser, working for Ena Salon, Holborn! Laura was offered a free haircut, this is a common thrifty opportunity that you just can't turn down, my next blog'll be a wuick one about L's free cut!

Stay tuned and stay blessed, GRM updates also coming soon!
