POLICE are appealing for information following a robbery at a hairdressing supplies store in Bradford.

A lone female member of staff at Sally Salon services in Busfield Street, Dudley Hill, was getting ready to close for the day when a man entered the store holding a Stanley knife and made demands for money.

About £600 and pairs of expensive professional hairdressing scissors were stolen.

The robber is described as a white man, about 6ft 3ins tall and wearing a large black coat with the hood up and a scarf or similar covering the lower part of his face, black jogging bottoms, black and white Adidas trainers, and was carrying a large black bag.

The victim was left very shaken but was unharmed by the incident which happened at about 5:45pm, on Friday, August 29.
