Fish Hairdressing the 'original'

It's a little know fact that before she hit the mega-big time, back in the 1990s Kate Moss used to hang around Fish Hairdressing in Soho, London. According to Paul Burfoot – the guv'nor of Fish - she “was a regular face around Fish, skiving off school to smoke fags in our staff room”. Paul styled Kate's hair for one of her first magazine covers and she once modeled as a mermaid for Fish "I had to phone up her school to see if she could get the day off” reminisced Paul...

“She’s an original – a good old south London girl...!”

Big Mistake making this - you will be sued.

Dear BM

Please feel free to email us directly at care@shave.com with your comments on this matter - I am 'only' the Head of Design (not legal or marketing). However I think we'll be just fine, Kate Moss used to hang around the Fish Hairdressing Salon exactly as described.

Kind regards

Simon

BM:

Your video appears that Kate is endorsoring the product, that is the issue you are up against - especially given her contracts with other players in your sector.

Dear BM

I have passed your comments onto the relevant personnel.

Kind regards

Simon
