THERE are dozens of brilliant hairdressers across Cumbria.

This week, we asked readers of the News & Star to share their views on the best places to go in the north and west of the county.

The results didn’t disappoint, with more than 900 comments on our Facebook page.

We’ve tried to include as many suggestions as possible across the county, but couldn’t make room for them all.

Here - in no particular order - are our readers’ choice.
