Our roots

Tangles was originally founded in 1987

​At 16, a German aspiring hairdresser found himself on an unexpected journey when World War II erupted. Joining the German Air Force, he underwent basic flight training in France before being stationed in the Channel Islands. Fate took a turn when he was shot down, leading to his capture and transfer to a prison of war camp in Scotland. Amidst challenges, he was later relocated to an American bomber base in Lincolnshire. Here, his skills as a barber surfaced when American soldiers discovered his talent. Not only did he become the go-to barber on the base, but he also found love in the form of the farmer's daughter. Post-war, he and his newfound love moved to Hanwell, England, where they realized their dream of opening a hair salon. Three generations later, their family remains an integral part of the business, a testament to resilience, love, and the enduring artistry of hairstyling that began amid the trials of wartime.
