France Buissonnière: very small itinerant hair salon

Calling your hair salon “Atmosplesp’hair” or “infinite” is not inevitable in the twentieth e century. In Savigny-en-Septaine (Cher), Clémence Pérot has chosen a more sober “Adventure Coiffure”, which is also more fair. Inaugurated in July, his establishment has everything of an “adventure” indeed. Instead of renting a Pas-deck in this town with a few shops, this 26-year-old hairdresser opted for a Tiny House, which she installed at the bottom of her garden. Having cut your hair is an unprecedented experience. Large bay windows invite to contemplate the neighboring meadow – the luckiest will even see galloping deer in the morning mist. Maps caress the windows. In fine weather, a wooden terrace offers to wait in the open air, tasting an espresso.

To his knowledge, Clémence Pérot would be the only one in France to have transferred a “real” hair salon to a Tiny House. The space is cramped (18 square meters on the ground), but nothing is missing: three styling stations, a shampoo tray, a kitchen area with fridge also used as a laboratory to prepare colorings, a mini-bathroom , a washing machine, a 200-liter water heater, reversible air conditioning remotely connected, a television connected to musical chains, an access ramp for people with reduced mobility, a false wood stove (completely electric) Devocated to strengthen “the cocooning atmosphere” … without forgetting, outside, four wheels and a hitch hook. This is the main interest of a microomaison: to land further, if necessity requires.

His companion, Charles, exercises the profession of mechanic at air base 702, in Avord, located 7 kilometers away. Mutations are commonplace in the army: “If that were to happen, we only had to hang the Tiny to a truck to settle elsewhere”, explains the stylist, who is not at her first experience In terms of itinerant lounge. Between 2018 and 2021, Adventure Coiffure thus occupied the 20 cubic meters of a Renault Master. The van parked in the markets and parking lots of the industrial zones. Clémence Pérot had then chosen the way of mobility after several years spent in traditional salons, “to make chain cuts with poor quality products”. The Covid then slowed down its itinerant activity, while giving it the opportunity to think about another concept.

The young woman would never have carried out her project without her father, a worker in a factory of stainless steel tanks and former boss of a masonry and coverage company. Pascal Pérot is a first -rate handler. It was he who, every weekend, for six months, rewarded and set up the cabin, bought second-hand 40,000 euros from an individual. First of all, we had to climb the leaks – “we saw through the floor” – then isolate floor and ceiling, mount the partitions, bring water and electricity to arrive … and above all, optimize space. A mezzanine, furnished with a sofa bed, could be created, in order to accommodate the friends passing.
