Dressing gowns and slippers are welcome at a new barber shop on wheels that has made getting a haircut easier than ever in the Norwich area.
Tyler Claxton, 28, has launched Signature Barbers in a VW Crafter van that he converted with his dad Mark, who is also a builder.
With guidance from YouTuber Greg Virgoe, the father-and-son duo stripped back the interior and transformed it into a slick barber shop, complete with a swivel chair.

It is the first mobile business of its kind in the city and Tyler Claxton goes within a 10-mile radius of Norwich.
He said: "I have been fully booked so far and the clientele has been amazing.

"One of my customers came out in his slippers and dressing gown and said how convenient it was to be able to get a haircut on his driveway.
"A university student said it was the best thing to come to Norwich and it has saved him the hassle of getting a bus into the city."
Mr Claxton was previously a care worker, but after contracting an illness in 2018 he was out of work for a year.

He decided to retrain and before starting Signature Barbers he worked at several places in the city, most recently at Clockwork Barbers.
