Insights

Released in the Homemaker Rooms line and retired, Ladies' Hairdressers has vintage, region-limited scarcity from its Europe/UK/Australia distribution and low reissue risk tied to the pre-minifigure Homemaker era, and while sealed examples have shown durable interest, trading volume is thin and condition sensitivity adds volatility.

Set Facts

The set includes two blue mirror tables with white lights and flowers, two yellow chairs, and two identical hairdresser tables with mirrored stickers.
It features accessories such as a white book and a hairbrush.
The set contains two distinct female Maxi figures and allows construction of a scene with two women using a sewing machine to make a dress for a third woman.
This set was released only in Europe, the UK, and Australia.
