TWO Cherries players are set to open a barber shop in Canford Cliffs next week.

Adam Smith and Lewis Cook are investors in Grade 92 alongside James Gura-Lowe and Kieran Birch, and on Monday, the brand's sixth location will be open for business.

Smith told the Daily Echo: "Me and Lew [Lewis Cook] just thought we’d do it together, invest in it.”

“Just something to do on the side, which keeps us occupied outside of football.”

Smith explained the decision for the location for the barber shop is due to a lack of gentlemen salons in the area and hopes to be people’s new first choice.

He said: “I would say like 90 per cent of the team live around there and the staff members live around there, so its kind of guaranteed that everyone is going to go there.

“I’m sure other people will go there for sure because its lacking barbers in that area.

“It’s not just a barbers it’s like a gentleman’s salon as well, so we have got a health spa at the back.”

Grade 92 has five other locations are in Castlepoint, Southbourne, Ashley Cross, Alder Hills and Springbourne, and the Canford Cliffs store is set to open its doors on Monday, November 25.
