Dame Judi's ahead of the rest

Treat your mother (or yourself) to a new haircut.

The Dench, a short, textured hairstyle made famous by Dame Judi, has been voted the top inspirational hairstyle for British women over 30.

"The reason it's so popular among older women is that it can be adapted to suit different face shapes," said Robert Eaton, creative director of Russell Eaton hair salon in Barnsley, which has just opened a second branch, on Boar Lane, in Leeds.

The new Russell Eaton Leeds salon, which features a sumptuous Aveda spa in the basement, is on: 0113 246 9162.
