Kay’s Hairdressers

A Memory of Dorchester.

I did my apprenticeship in Kay’s ,I was 15 years 3 months when I started in 1965, so there is a very good chance I was working there when the South Street photo was taken. My boss was Mr Roy Collins who became Mayor of Dorchester. His mother in law used to have one of the barrows in South Street.
On Monday evenings it was Model night when some poor person had their hair done by an apprentice. While they were under the dryer we would sneak up to the Thatch Bar in the Antelope Hotel. I think the hair was very dry when we got back. The manager when I started was Christoper Mann and later it was a Paul Austin.Happy Days.
