A barbers which opened in March is just getting around to seeking planning permission.

Taksim Barbers, adjacent to the Taksim Mezze Grill, at 99b London Road, Maidstone, has submitted a retrospective planning application to the borough council seeking permission to convert a former storeroom into the Turkish barbers business.

Nuh Karsandi is seeking permission to open from 10am to 6pm on seven days a week, which differs from the business’s current advertised hours, which show the barbers operating between 9.30am and 4pm on Sunday, but staying open until 7pm on three other nights during the week.

The application says the business will give employment to two full-time and two part-time staff. No external changes to the building resulted from the change of use.
