A new high street store certainly raised eyebrows when it distributed this hair-larious leaflet.

The flyer from The Barber Chop in Whitstable was printed and sent out to homes across the town today and residents were quick to highlight the hairy situation.

The leaflet advertised the new shop and its opening times and even a cut-price offer.

But at the bottom of the price list, the leaflet reads 'eyebrows threatening' - instead of eyebrow threading.

Eagle-eyed residents noticed the mistake and were quick to point it out on social media.

Whitstable resident Kelly Tobin, 40, said: "When my 20-year-old son saw the 'eyebrows threatening' he said, 'A fiver is pretty expensive for someone telling my eyebrows to **** off'.

"To be honest, it’s a pretty good flyer - but they should have got someone to proof-read it before printing."

Elsewhere on the price list, a 'cleaper cut' is advertised for £10.

Perhaps the business will just write the whole thing off as a bad hair day.
